This is my before picture. My body weight was 207.5 Lbs, 14% body fat, 29.13 Lbs.of fat, and 201.92 Lbs of lean mass. I felt horrible and was ready to commit to a healthier physique and lifestyle.

My goal is to maintain a healthy and fit physique year around. I would also like to help other's reach there fitness goals by sharing fitness and nutrition tips that have worked for me.
Goal (Long):
Like most people I wanted to have a physique that I could be proud of. I tried countless fad diets and exercise programs only to be disappointed with the end result. I then decided to see a nutritionist by the name of Keith Klein that a friend had recommended. Keith put me on the right track with eating properly for the type of physique I was trying to achieve. After succeeding my goal of having a muscular and lean body, Keith suggested I should look into fitness modeling. So I'm going for It!!!!
My calf routine that I wrote in my body blog. I call it 10's.
10 set on standing calf raises for 10 reps with only 10 seconds of rest in between sets. the rest time is the most important part of the exercise. Once you get to the 8th second get ready for the next lift. When the weight starts to get so heavy that you having trouble getting ten reps lower the weight. Always start at the heaviest weight and work your weighs as need to get you ten reps in. Let me know how it works for you. If you not having trouble walking for the next couple days then you didn't do something write? Let me know if that happens. JL My calf routine that I wrote in my body blog. I call it 10's.

Awww that's sweet :-) I am sure they'll manage, I told them to come up here if they want. It's a good thing the temperatures aren't in the 100's, it would be much worse! P.S. I like the new picture, my abs are almost as good as yours?! haha ;-)
