That's the truth, no doubt! Stay strong FitFam!

What's done is done. Gotta leave all that negative shyt behind, stay focused on our goals and grind it out. Anything is possible when willing to put in the work.

Only doing 2 leg days/week. PT for the right bicep area starts next week. Diet is tight, more satisfied than ever with what I eat. Feeling skinny in areas away from the mid-section, but know fatloss still needed. PATIENCE!! HEAL & CUT, then BULK!

Been noticing L-shape like veins appearing, extending from the bicep area, up and around the shoulder. Can't wait to expose them even more! One of my many motivations to shred as much as possible for the next 6-8 months. Tomorrow, Day 1

Time change, plumbing issues, working overtime, viewing properties (buying one in 2018!), etc. made it harder to add 2 more days of lifting a week. Feels good to keep fitness a priority! Kicking off this gym routine strong!

Feeling blessed to be on the right track towards my fitness goals while patient with the process. 41 years old, in the best shape of my adult life and stronger than ever!

In the middle of what appears to be my most successful attempt at bulking. Workouts are intense, so much going on in my mind. The battle between self sabotage and believing I can give more is real! Trying not to overthink while giving it all I can.

Next month I go back to bulking! I only took this on for two weeks this year, backing off after a lower back injury. Today I start drafting my plans for a successful clean bulking program!

On this journey for almost 5 years, I didn't begin to realize this till about half way through. Today my quality of life is 10 times better than it was when I was obese. I've made major life changes beyond fitness I never thought possible.

Proud to say I'm In love with taking care of my body. Spirit is pretty strong. Overcoming the fat boy mentality is an ongoing struggle, but I've made a lot of progress! More to come.

Proud to say that giving up hasn't crossed my mind in a long time. I'm curious to see how my body will look after shedding off the last of the fat and adding some muscle.

It's time to take my fitness to new heights. And I'm ready!!

Tuesday is the big day! New diet, gym routine and a lot more cardio. Meal planning is complete, I'll add a few veggie dishes to the menu. Lower back is healing slowly, but I won't let that get in the way of being in the best shape of my life!

I want to be half as strong as he was in his prime.
