When I Started:

How I Started:
Was interested in fitness and bodybuilding since I was a kid, but work and other matters kept me in the "recreational lifter" stage for a long time. When I hit my late 40s, realizing I was running out of time, I got serious to reach competition level...
Why I Love It:
I enjoy the personal challenge of improving myself physically while striving to maintain a healthy balance with all other aspects of my life.
How I Stay Motivated:
Seeing other guys hitting it hard in the gym!

2nd in 2007 OCB Indiana Masters

Nate impressed me when I first saw him training, always using strict form even though he was just 19 at the time. Today he continues to kick my ass as a training partner. His natural genetics and hard work are gonna take him far in this sport!

Lance is the epitomy of a great bodybuilder. he stays focused, lives and breathes the sport. And he isn't afraid of intensely hard lifting. He has improved dramatically during each "off season". He will be a natural pro this year IMO.

Ken, Whats the Prohormone talk? Is this on the down low? What are you thinking of using? Ask Jessie or Jen which one they recommend...ha ha. Anyway, I hope all is well and that you are continuing to eat and grow.

I'm doing good for 14 weeks away. Protein is still high, Fat is moderate and carbs are very very low. The only way I'm getting carbs is indirectly from eggs, peanuts and maybe if I have some veggies. I'm trying to figure out the flavor of things, like with legs and cardio. My mindset is if you do them on the same day, you might not get that much of a benefit, as far as muscle growth... legs are a hard thing to grow for us talliessss

But I think I'm doing pretty good though. I do see it melting off and more definition is coming in, even though I'm still holding, but I think

Yea, I would say so, I think I need to find another way of getting it measured though because I do not think the machine at my gym is that accurate.What do you use? Reason, why I say this is because I measured at 21 one day.. and i'm speaking weeks ago, and then it said 17 like 2 to 3 days later. I was like wow. Then I went 3 days after that and it said 20.9, 20.6, 21, 20 again.. because I kept hitting redo and I'm like this is a joke

LOL, I appreciate it! I wouldn't mind gettin up there in like 2 yrs, but I don't feel at this point that it would be enough time to really make the changes I need to be competitive. We'll see :)

sounds like a 50:40:10 ratio... Does that sounds about right.. protein, carbs, fats. Whats your philosophy on fats? Have you ever did a high fat diet and would you consider 50 grams high? Or what is high in your book?
beastmaster317 [ View Profile ]
Jun 16, 2009 6:30am
so you were taking in about 130 to 170grams of carbs during your cut
