My Workout Philosophy View My Full Workout Philosophy

My Workout Program

I switch my routein up every week. I did the 12 week transformation with Kris Gethins program and am amazed with the change my body has made. My entire thought process on training and diet are at a very different level.

I have been doing a lot of superset work focusing on high reps but also toss in heavy days.

Since I have been on this diet program, i do 20-25 minutes of cardio 2X a day. 

My Nutrition Philosophy View My Full Nutrition Philosophy

This is what I eat!

Intermitted fasting has been my protocol for the last 2 months. I cant say it is working and beneficial since I am currently on a slow bulk. I find it much easier to eat 3 big meals rather than the 5-6 meal bullshit suggestion. 

I eat clean for the most part. Clean meaning natural, whole and minmal / non processed food. I do like to enjoy life here and there and cheat. 

I find that counting my calories and sticking with my macros is what is helping me achieve my goals. 

My Supplement Philosophy View My Full Supplement Philosophy

Supplements

After about a decade of fitness and nutrition I have learned that most supplements are all marketing hype. I have learned that proper nutrition is the key to reaching goals. The products I do use come from a good company, such as ON and I stick with Whey, multi, fishoil, creatine.  There are only a handful of companies that I will purchase from since I do not trust most of the companies out there. 

 

Stay natural, stay healthy, stay hungry. 

My Motivation Philosophy View My Full Motivation Philosophy

What gives me the push..

My motivation... 

 

I have had a life that differs from many.  I am the youngest of 6 and grew up with a lot of fear. I always wanted to please and make everyone happy. My old man passed away when I was 12 and my life had no path.. I let go of myself and was eating out of sadness, comfort and what not. I was fat and hated my image. I was picked on by my family and just felt worthless. I joined HS football at 15 and leanred the basics with weights and it has been love ever since. After HS I got into bodybuilding in college and just loved watching my body change. I was a massive 220 at one point and noticed the looks and attention and loved it. I had a giant EGO, tho, which no man should have. At 19 I was stabbed in a fight ( my right forearm and lower back )I should have bled death or been put in a wheel chair from paralization. ( 2cm away from my spine the blade was ) I dropped from 220 to 189 in a matter of 2 months. I felt low, worthelss, ugly.  I started to lift 4 months after the injury even tho the doc said no way. i feel weight training really helped heal me. I still cannot feel half of my right hand due to nerve damage. 

Fast foward to today. I have done a lot of growing up and am now 27 years old. I know what i want in life and that is true happieness. I want to motivate, educate and give my gift to the world. I try to live without hate, ego, or resentment and treat people as if they were my family. It is not simple and there are days where I slip. My goal in life is to be the father that I never had and raise a beautiful family. 

This program I am on taught me a lot about myself and has changed my outlook in life.

Now that I heading home I am back in 'lose weight' mode:-) it would be great to get some external motivation...my mission is to be toned and slightly defined... Muscles bulking on me - freaks me out!
