Vacation is over...Today, I started my exercise program again!
Goal (Long):
Being a 30+ guy, I've managed to get in better shape than I was when in my 20's. That's something that motivates me to take it to a higher level, and become somebody who people watch and think for themselves: "That guy must workout..."
He has not only got a great physique, but also kept on the right track for a long time, showing that bb can be an important part of a healthy lifestyle, while not the only thing in life. His blogs are very well structured and full of reasonable arguments, also showing that intelligence, determination and persistence are unavoidable characteristics of a successful bodybuilder.
Not only Josh has got the results most of us would like to get, but he's also an easygoing guy who takes the time to teach others about what he did and has learned in the process: he has uploaded excellent videos where he talks about bodybuilding, and he does it with a humble and friendly style.
Hey George,hope you had a great chrissie! I occasionally post my diet in my journal but will do so next week when I return back to a normal routine. My carb and protein mixes are about 2.3g and 1.8g per kilo of late. Wedding must be just round the corner?
Thanks G! I am working on boosting diet more to cater for the growth and would be happy with 3 kilo (6.6lbs) growth by mid Jan. As a contra I will be scaling back boxing and keeping running to once a week. From April to late July I managed to grow about 14lbs. How are you going mate, you are looking leaner in your current pic - great work!
there is no reason to get too fat when bulking up if you watch your calorie intake. im getting a little soft but that is what cardio was invented for :)
Thanks G, about 90% healed but scared to push it too much. Easing into lifts again and hoping to get back on track within a week or two. Got a charity run next week so got to boost the fitness!
Good news on the BF drop and wedding date. How's the diet stacking up and looks like you have boosted training to 6 weeks..you are gonna be a beast soon!
Thanks for the add/comment George! You're doing great, don't ever doubt yourself. I can definately see some shape coming along. Always remember, it's a lifestyle, eating healthy and religously working out. If it happened overnight, EVERYONE would be fit! Keep at it, and good luck!
Thanks big G, really appreciate it. Have set my training to max after that break. My only problem is trying to contain diet, been a bit slack this week and have a serious corn chip addiction lol! How have you been going?
Its a highway to hell haha..jokes! Definitely fired back at the gym and working towards gaining at least another 7lbs fast. Hope you are having a great weekend.
Haha thanks bud! I've learnt alot from this cut... For my next cut it will be at its optimum and I doubt I'll lose any muscle :D can't wait, but it will be a few years away. 20 days out dude! Hope all goes well buddy.
