Basically I realized that I was in the worst shape of my life. I stressed too much and ate very unhealthy. As a result of my unhealthyness I started getting heart palpatations wich scared the heck out of me. I thought too myself that I needed to be healthier, not just for me, but for my wife and kids as well.
My Cousin got me into the gym one morning and been addicted ever since

Veganism has been on my mind for the past 2 months. Its tougher to eat vegan and still eat clean while living in dorms so during break I experimented with foods I liked and brought tons back2 school. I do it for ethical reasons. I am fortunate to live in a small town where I know the farmer and see the animals I will be eating. They're humanely raised, graze the land + are slaughtered as nicely as can be expected. I allow animal products in my diet from that farm in my town.
Hi man,
well that is very important, you have to eat the right amount of carbs and protein for your weight and you have to eat every 3 hours at least 6 meals per day.
Hello Brandon,
Thanks for the comment.
Diet is at least 60% when you are persuing your 6 packs, eat clean an do a little cardio after your workout.
Good luck bro!
You're right, you look leaner, but it's also been a month now that you've been working on your transformation, so part of it at least is progress. Good work.
thanks for the suggestions, I will try some goat's milk and see how I feel. Now that you mention it, I have been feeling really "blah" lately since taking all this dairy and whey. It will be nice to feel like myself again! have a great day!
