Photo was taken when I started training, I was 155lbs, I was weak mentally and physically, I need a change
FOR THE BETTER
Just before Christmas this was taken before I upped the calories etc in quest for weight before I began the 4%BF hunt for May 17 Novice Comp
My new goal is the INBA Australian Titles on October 18 2008
Goal (Long):
After winning the INBA Brisbane Novice Title I have been granted automatic qualification for the National Titles in October. My aim is to come in much leaner and with more muscle mass. I will be ripped and ready. So the countdown is on and I cant wait for it. Will be a big year thats for sure and I am hungry for more Silverware for my mantle. So for now lets get stuck into training and get my diet spot on.
Description: After finishing a class of RPM and flogging the legs we endeavoured to train legs here we hit 550kg (1210lbs) on leg press, this is the second set of it
Did 12 reps first set with no stabilising but needed to stabilise the knees on the second set. They were pretty worn out by this stage
One body group per day eg CHEST, SHOULDERS, BACK, ARMS, LEGS.
Not so much in that order
I use exercises I can manage most weight and form with and add some resistance exercises (keeping reps between 6-10)
Basic rundown
Chest: Flat bench, Flat dumbbell Press, Incline Smith, Cable...
Awe Pete. Thanks. Some days I feel like throwing in the towel too. I am so glad you didnt even though you had a lot going on. Look how fabulous you have done. You inspire me too.
I have lost over 70 pounds and I can bench 255 as a one rep max. I guess you could say those are my physical achievements. I still cant do a pullup but I am working on it. I have a much better handle when it comes to emotional eating and my mindset for this lifestyle is definitely becoming stronger. One of my biggest achievements is finding a support group that encourages me and kicks my butt when I need it.
I know you are going to do fabulous at that comp. low carbs suck but its only a week and it will be worth it when you compete. I can wait to hear all about it and see the pics.
I have been away for a while and want to say hi to all who are keeping an eye on me.
My computer was busted and i was unable to get online to keep anything up to date.
Things are going well for me, I am in my lean down phase for the INBA novice comp on May 17 in Brisbane. I will do the rounds to you all soon and say a personal hello and check your progress but to all who are sticking with their programs I wish you all the best and hope you achieve all you desire.
You are going to rock that comp. Keep the intensity up and train hard. No time for slacking. Make every meal and workout count. I am cheering for your success.
