Overall Goal:  Update: Hello my birthday was May 14,2008 and instead of losing weight I gained weight according to my last doctor visit- I am now 170 so my goals have been revised. I want to lose the "spare tire" that I have around my midsection.

Fit Status:  I am seeing some results of my here and there workouts I planning to go back to the gym soon

Motivation Level: 7/10


Personal Info And Background:

Sex:
Male
Age:
48
Location:
Cleveland, Ohio, United States
Occupation:
Master Degree Student/Capella University
Personal Website:

College:
High School:
When I Started:
Jan, 1984
How I Started:
did start unofficially in high school between 1975-1979 and in the Marines between 1979 and 1983, but was not consistent until 1984 when I started college.It was in my blood to exercise. I have always been interested in the human body and how it works
Why I Love It:
I love to see the transformation of the different muscle groups based on how I train them and it provides an outlet for a stressful day and along with the diet I love the whole holistic transformation
How I Stay Motivated:
It has been hard lately since I am not working and in college (online) so I am more sedentary and I have no contact with any of my old workout partners which kept me motivated. So this current goal is going to be a challenge
BB Accomplishments:
May 1999 Ohio Bodybuilding Championships 3rd place Bantamweight May 2002 1st place Mr Cleveland lightweight , 4th place Masters Competition in Columbus (subject to revision based on what I remember)

Goal (Overall):
Update: Hello my birthday was May 14,2008 and instead of losing weight I gained weight according to my last doctor visit- I am now 170 so my goals have been revised. I want to lose the "spare tire" that I have around my midsection.
Goal (Long):
Need to transform my body into close to contest shape -I need to lose fat overall I am 170 and I am better looking at 150 which is my contest weight I want to maintain that shape for the rest of my life I would love to have muscle symmetry and get my abs in shape ,which will be challenge since that is where I accumulate my fat tissue. I am unemployed and a Master's Student at Capella University . I have become more sedentary since my last employment in 2004 , therefore I have to increase my cardio -very frustrating to say the least
Weight Goal:
I want to LOSE 10 lb
Bodyfat Goal:
8%

Thanks for dropping by. My leg routine will be getting nastier each weak with more weight and more nastiness. I am starting off with a 3 day split that I am doing 4 days a week. In the following months I will be doing a 2 day split 4 days a week and then a 3 day split 6 days a week. I have a lot of mass to slap on this body in the next 3-4 months. Take care.

Yeah, strength training, but in reality trying to cut body fat. Finally be able to see my muscles and all that. I'm not all that experienced with working out, but trying. Goal is to get down to 175. I am upping the cardio now, once after new years I will go run ever morning before work. But still lift 4 days a week. When the flag football season rolls around again I'll be working out for that but right now I want to get down to 175 by the end of April. Let me know what I should do.

The picture in my avatar is of me that one of my buddies took when we were snowboarding and were waiting for people to get down the slopes after us. Always thought it was a really cool picture. I will have questions, just did a six week cycle and now switching up lifting sets and exercises. I'll probably ask around another six weeks what kind of workout to switch to. I like the six week cycle because I can see my progress before it plateaus, its going pretty good.

Thanks! I may take you up on it. At this point though, I don't think I'm even worthy to put pics up! LOL! Although... it would be great to be able to compare before and after pics.

Training is going well. I am starting to trim down from 291 and am 281 now. Have to work the waistline a bit. I was discharged a Corporal and am a Captain in the AF now.

Looks like you are doing very well. Keep up the great work. With the price of gas I won't be getting to the gym everyday. I will have to go every other. Bought some weights and bands to use at home. Keep up the great work.
