I started to get sent on extended back to back Business trips to Japan. Turns out you have a lot of free time when TV is in Japanese. The hotel had an attached athletic club that I began to visit nightly (nothing better to do) and my diet fixed itself seeing as what you eat in Japan is rice and fish 3-4 meals a day /w sushi snacks in between. Lo and behold I began to make gains. Motivation was off the hook seeing as I’m 6’2” so even with my modest gains I was the “big” guy in the gym. (ok so the cliental was also old Japanese business men, but hey).

I have been at lifting about 5 years with some good results up and down. For the last 2 years I have cut for a late summer cruise. This year I was 10 lbs heavier at approximately the same BF%. I want to do the same for next year.
Just watching your transformation and dedication in getting ready for this competition makes me work harder in the gym everyday and knock out those last reps or go up that extra weight in the gym. Truly inspirational.
Well, since Thanksgiving I have been missing workouts left and right. I went from a strict 7 days in the gym ?(3 lifting days followed by an abs cardio day with no days off) to hitting maybe 4 days a week lifting. Part of me says "enjoy the time off. you busted your ass for 8 months...
Here is a 8 day workout that I do that addresses both Muscle confusion for arms (my lagging bodypart) and Push / Pull.
Day 1 Chest / Tri
Day 2 Legs / Shoulders
Day 3 Back / Bi
Day 4 Abs / Traps / Cardio
Day 5 Bi / Chest
Day 6 Shoulders / Legs
Day 7 Tri / Back
Day 8 Abs / Traps...

Ya bro, been working over at Blizzard Beach. I have been working out at the gym in the apartments. It isn't the best but I am getting in some wicked workouts so its been good. I looked at a couple of gyms but without a car and with how busy my schedule is, its just impractical for me but who knows. It has been getting cold at night man!
Good deal, I am hoping for just the pool, nice and simple haha. I am just excited for the warm weather, we have gotten 80 inches of snow so far just this winter, and I am sick of it.
hey man. thanks for the add. looking great bro. nice to see central florida muscle on here. i'm down 25 lbs. leaning out and then gonna clean bulk after. shoot me a line sometime.
