When I Started:
Jan, 2008
How I Started:
Id been messing about with weights for a few years and never really doing or sticking to anything. A girlfriend broke up with me at Christmas 07 and i decided to put that emotion into working out a lot instead of drinking a lot.
Why I Love It:
I love that I'm actually doing something to change myself and that its working.
How I Stay Motivated:
For the first year it was easy, this was something new. Now im in year two and my motivation is coming form seeing results in my arms and chest, feeling stronger and happier in myself.
I want arms so big i need specially made shirts, the strength of a Viking and a body fat so small people wonder if i eat real food (which of course i will)!
Goal (Long):
Overall, i want to be huge. Step 1 it to get a Movie Star body, big and toned with low body fat. After that, i want a clean bulk to get as huge as i can. I want to look like a Viking who just stepped onto these fair shores from his long boat, centuries ago, would look.
I want to be so huge i wills care small children. So it'll probably involve a lot of dead lifts, squats and bench pressing. 5x5's are the current plan for then. We shall see.
So i got back into the weights this week. Just squats and light bench press. Funny thing is, my wrist feels so much better. Tonight and Sunday I'm going to try out militay press, dead lift, ez curls and tricep pull downs. As long as they feel good at light weight I plan to get a routine much...
Yeah, I'm not complaining about my results. Feeling good right now and I have three weeks to go. Sorry to hear about the injuries. Hope they don't keep you out of the game too long.
The diet's going good. I usually have rolled oats for breakfast, chicken & salad wraps for lunch and fruit for snacks. You're right, I definitely feel better every day for it too. How's your training going?
Thanks - lovely words! With injury be careful, if you don't give enough time in the long run for things to heal, you'll be plagued with aches and pains for life :( I learnt that the hard way.. Keep me posted on progress though :))
Wow - thanks for adding me to your "inspiration" list. I'm flattered more than you can know - but I'm not really "amazing" you know, just incredible (and modest,hahaha!).
Hi Chris, wow that is amazing that you find me an inspiration, thank you I feel real honoured! How are you doing by the way? In those specially made shirts yet? Take care, Leila xox
With each new addition comes a new set of stressors. But it's exciting. I just won't be able to accomplish everything that I would like to in regard to my own selfish physique goals.
Oddly enough, now that I'm trying to bulk I'm actually losing weight! But, if I end up more defined that's okay too. How are you doing with your goals - having trouble fitting your arms into sleeves yet?
I'm doing good. Sticking with the program. I'm not a big fan of supplements after reading Burn The Fat, Feed The Muscle by Tom Venuto. But if you do feel you're getting results, that's great. So which football club do you support?
Thanks. Good to hear. Good luck. Remember it is good to set a day aside to not work out and to treat yourself too something. No smoking though. LOL But I will do pizza and chips on my off day. It helps keep me from feeling like I'm denying myself too much.
