Guys I'm 6'3 and around 14st 11lbs. Not catastrophic but I'm going on a family holiday over Christmas and want to tone up a bit. Literally just arranged It.

My plan is:

Run 30 mins every night
Do 50 press ups thereafter
Eat no more than 1500 cals a day
If I do that, will I see much improvement? A slightly ambiguous question but thoughts welcomed

Thanks
 
Perhaps I'll I crease to 45 mins. I'm actually quite muscular but have let it go flabby in places over the years. I used to be quite toned and trained hard in my early twenties. Having hit 30 And having not carried it on, I now have a muscular frame that has become, as I said, flabby.

What I need to do is loose the excess fat as underneath is quite a bit of muscle. Hence the low calorie and what I thought decent amount of runnig idea
 
I'm actually quite an experienced runner having done it for years but without recent consistency. So, running for 30 mins is pretty straight forward for me.

Don't get me wrong IM puffed out by the end and having done it twice now, with the press ups afterwards, I currently feel nothing but 'better' for it.

I have a good pair of trainers and am mainly running on soft sand pathways so not too worried about injury.

I genuinely thought doing the above would have quite a significant impact so I'm a little deflated by a few comments.

I just want to build a little renewed self confidence come 29th December when for the first time, I'll have my top off in front of a significant part of my family when swimming!

I know I won't look like a beef cake but half the job is 'feeling' better about myself which in turn should encourage further confidence
