Overall Goal: Remain positive, cut to 175 for a transformation contest I entered in early March at the Arnold Fitness Expo. Then maintain at 185-190 for a while and cut again to compete in August 2010 in the Lenda Murray NPC Classic, which will be my first show.
Fit Status:
8 weeks on keto, down 12 lbs. Look a lot better
Worried that I was going to keel over from a heart attack, I started lifting in July 2005 twice a week with my chiropractor, TJ Morgan, who is a bodybuilder.
Why I Love It:
It is the one area in my life I have managed to have self discipline in, and that's why I love it.
How I Stay Motivated:
Looking at my fat ass in the mirror!

Yorkshireman I: Right! I had to get up in the morning, at ten o'clock at night, half an hour before I went to bed, eat a lump of cold poison, work twenty-nine hours a day down mill and pay mill-owner for permission to come to work, and when we got home, our dad would kill us and dance about on our graves, singing Hallelujah!

Goal (Long):
Long-term is to get as lean as possible, then maintain a low bf% within reason as I increase my calories and put on some muscle. I would like to ultimately be at around 195, but have it be 10% or less bf. Then work hard at maintaining a life style and diet which prevents me from ever getting overly fat again!
I have been frustrated for the last 2-3 weeks. I finally started eating right again, and actually gained weight, plus my shoulder aches a lot. I almost said screw it, and just quit caring, but after talking with my chiro who I train with twice a week, and also talking with a good friend...
Mike, I had a blast at both of my comps this year and I know that you will too. Let me know if you have any questions about contest prep. Keep blastin' the iron! -Jeff
