Overall Goal:  Please note: This username is no longer used. I am active under user: GertLouw

Fit Status:  Been bulking and building some good muscle over the past 3 months. Now it's cutting time and I just entered my cutting phase.

Motivation Level: 10/10


Personal Info And Background:
Real Name:
Gert Louw
Sex:
Male
Age:
45
Location:
Western Cape, South Africa
Occupation:
Self Employed
Personal Website:

When I Started:
Jan, 2003
How I Started:
When I turned 40, it dawned on me that this is probably gonna be my last opportunity to get that coveted 6-pack. So I got off the sofa and the rest is history... [Plus a very close call with death changed my perspective on life and health.]
Why I Love It:
The adrenaline and resulting healthy and fit body that wife admire - lol!
How I Stay Motivated:
I try not to think about or focus on the actual lifting (otherwise it seems too hard work!). I rather focus on enjoying the tunes I listen too while working out. Love working out to tunes of KUTLESS and RED.
BB Accomplishments:
None, apart from being "transformation of the week" on bb.com. http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/transm98.htm
Forum Signature:
When we wake up in the morning, we have 2 simple choices. Go back to sleep and dream, or wake up and chase those dreams. The choice is yours... ["You will call and I will answer you." Job14:15]

Main Goal:
Live Healthier
Goal (Overall):
Please note: This username is no longer used. I am active under user: GertLouw
Goal (Long):
Good health is my main meduim and longterm goal. I wanna grow old with my wife and be there for my kid guiding him through some of lifes tough moments. The muscles is a nice by-product of staying in good health, but it is not my direct aim, nor what drives me. However, lately I got a couple of fitness shoots and even appeared with a pic or two in some well-known fitness mags. So would not mind my modelling hoby to grow a bit. But for now, having my wife's eye appreciate my body is kickass nice!

Workout Program:
This will give you and overview of my TRAINING and DIET program as well as some GENERAL TIPS I've picked up over the years.

Please note, I am by no way a professional and consider myself a novice in lifting weights. What might have worked for me, might not necessarily work for you. Use what...
