Background

When I Started: Aug 2007
HOW I STARTED:

I got tired of feeling like crap. I have lifted on and off since I was 14 but never got too serious. Last Summer I decided to transform my body -- at work they say I am having a "mid-life crisis" - I just laugh and tell them they need to have a crisis too :-)

WHY I LOVE IT:

I love the way it makes me feel and I love the results. When coworkers and friends who havent seen me in a while say "wow - what have you been doing?" it makes it all worth while!

This was one one of the first people i talked to when i first got into bodybuilding he has always been a big motivation and seeing him turn from a muscular average joe to the the great physique he has now motivated me to compete to thanks for the motivation and just taking time to critique my pics hope to compete with you someday!

Cutting Diet

Posted in Training  :  Dec 28, 2010 5:44pm
Merry Christmas.  Today I decided to start my cutting diet.  I read through Layne's article on contest prep and decided I can do this.  I am at 212 and body fat is somewhere between 13 and 17 % depending on how you measure it.  I need to get down to about 190 while maintaining muscle mass to get my BF % to about 5.  I want to lose about 1.2 Lb per week of fat and I calculated my dalily MR at 3000 Kcal.  I am going to shoot for 2200 to 2400 Kcal a day with 280 - 300 g protein, 150-200 g carbs and 50-70 g fats.  I am going to workout pretty much every day but t...

Halo-Tren 400

Posted in Training  :  Dec 28, 2010 5:44pm
This is my third day using Halo-Tren 400  I am going to use it for a month and post here my thoughts and progress.  The rest of my supplements, diet and training will stay about the same during this period.  I weighed 209 when I started on Dec 20th and today I weighed 212 and my body fat scale says I am down 1.3% body fat.   This is probably because I recently came off a few days of very low carbs and this weight gain may be glycogen and water retention.  In any event I dont have any adverse side effects -- ie no change in mood, libido, acne etc. &n...

December Training

Posted in Training  :  Dec 28, 2010 5:44pm
I hit the gym at 0730 this morning and did a brief 1/2 hour workout since i had to be in the ER at 0830 for my shift today.  The usual gym rats were there.  I did my leg routine today with squats, leg curls, leg extensions and calf raises.  I am trying to go lower on my squats so I stayed at 225 for 10 reps -- i could have gone to 275 or even 315 but I want to maintain good form and a decent pump -- the other day i saw a guy with small legs doing shitty squats with 4 plates on each side -- he barely bent his knees!  I dont want to workout like that -- for some its all ego b...
