When I Started:
Jan, 2009
How I Started:
I am entering myself in an online challenge. Hadn't worked out in over three years. It's time for a change and why not shoot for the most dramatic transformation. Even if I don't come close to winning, I'll be in excellent shape for my 2 daughters (1 mo. and 7 yrs.)
Why I Love It:
I had always been athletic in high school and loved the intensity of training and feeling good afterward. Somewhere down the line, I drifted away from that atmosphere of motivation and being rewarded. Just had a great one hour workout(01/05/09) and am loving it all over again.
How I Stay Motivated:
Remembering that I will need to be healthy in the future to have the most time possible with my family.
BB Accomplishments:
Lost 20 lbs. of fat and packed on lotta muscle the first 4 weeks.

What Determind1 Is Up To:
Apr 9, 2009
Determind1updated Motivation Level from 10/10 to 10/10 and said: "Havent felt this good since 21!"
My belly has never been so big. Over the past few years, since the last time I worked out, I have put on more weight than ever in my life. I'm at 266 and would like to be around 210 again and drop bodyfat from 25.7% down to atleast 10%. I want to be able to wrestle with my 7 yr old daughter without the worry of hurting her and at the same time setting an example for her to work hard to get what you want. The road ahead I know is a rough one and dedication will be a struggle at times but I have been through times mentally and physically that came out of the rough with beautiful results. I can't wait to look in the mirror in 5-6 months and say, "I did it!"
Weight Goal:
I want to LOSE 60 lb
Bodyfat Goal:
10%
Upcoming Contest:
Hydroxycut Hardbody Challenge

How has bodybuilding and fitness helped and/or changed your family life?
I stopped drinking all alcohol. My wife and my daughter(s) eat what I eat most of the time so they get to eat healthy too. I got my old job back. We have a new baby and things are wonderful compared to the problems we as a family were facing and were getting ready to endure if I hadnt made a complete turnaround. Ill never be more proud of myself.I stopped drinking all alcohol. My wife and my daughter(s) eat what I eat most of the time so they get to eat healthy too. I got my old job back.

PRIME THE PUMP INTENSE ROUTINE
Alternate after 4 weeks
"Primed for Growth" from M&F Dec.07. Sometimes all it takes to spark muscle growth is a little notice. Muscles can be stubborn at times, refusing to get bigger because of lack of "resources" at their disposal. Think of it as trying...
Nice job!! right on track. Biceps looking big too! And that's tough for tall guys, long arms make bi's look smaller. Hey i just ordered Hydroxy and CyroTest, can't wait to get on them. No ab rutein yet but doing cable crunches w/ 120lbs. for 3 sets of 25, first a warm up set of 50 w/80lbs.
hey you like the pre and post supps from cyto huh. i havent tried em. i don't think i like the NanoVaper pre, not as good as NOexplode and Superpump 250.the Halo is good.i may change up when i run out.
havent put together a full ab rutein yet.it should hit upper,lower,and obliques.making the abs bigger is important, they show up sooner.i'll let you know when.
nice updates!! i can't afford the hydroxycut this month, but my diet is and has been 100% clean for a few weeks, and the fat is coming off. also doing HIIT cardio 1/2 hour 3 or 4 times week. later bro!
yeh the gained weight is good, i lost some when i was sick (before the others) and i new it was muscle and some fat, after a few meals i got the lbs. back. now i go into getting ripped mode monday (3 monthes)
yeah, its been tough lately, tina(wife) and megan(16mons.) have the stomach vires-megan has had diarea for three days, chiropracter said give her probiotic every hour, that got her better in 1 day, ive been superdad: cleaning,caring for everyone.
3 pounds in 6 days holy crap!! your my man bro! i'm watching your every move, its gonna be awsome to see you change over the next few monthes. your gonna win the 2009 hydroxy!!
the Halo tastes preaty good, the results may take a couple weeks, i think i'll try the hydroxycut when i start my sredding plan next month. never done a fat burner before.
let me know what you think of the alpha test, the t-bomb II is all herbs, but i'm not liking it. just ordered muscletech's anabolic halo. your an inspiration man!!
