I think the only time I ever had reasonably visible abs was the last half of senior year of high school, and partway into the next year. I dieted down pretty thin (but wasn't working out or even exercising significantly) but sure didn't have a 6 pack. 22 years later having gone from fat as all hell @ 39, I want to see abs. I've lost 60 scale pounds over the last 15 months, and probably added close to 30lbs of muscle. I want to see abs before my 3rd child is born sometime at the end of april...
Enter MMv2.
I'll fill in the measurements tomorrow, as the priors were first thing in the morning.
Starting stats
Weight 186
Chest 42
Shoulders 48
L Bicep 14 3/4
R Bicep 14
L forearm 11 3/4
R forearm 11 3/4
L calf 15 1/4
R calf 15
waist where I wear pants 35 3/4
@ belly button 35 3/4
Blood pressure 120/72 (lower than my 11 year old daughter)
Resting pulse 55
waking temp average 95.6
Bodyfat estimate = 15%
I'll also take current pictures, my last set was a good bit ago (poundswise, it was just a bit over a month in time, but I think 17lbs) and its a pretty significant change.
My other supplementation will be
BCAAs
Neovar
RPM
Fish oil
Udos 3/6/9
Lipotrophin AM
Lipotrophin PM
I may also add DCP, and I-GH-1 or IGF-2.
Diet is currently a relative of the velocity diet. I say relative because a significant fraction of my food is solid, rather than all shake. But i'm sticking to basically the macros and the caloric levels of the velocity diet - so 190+g of protein, 1100-1300ish cal on non workout days, 1400-1600ish on workout days because of the postworkout drink. I'm not being 100% anal about measuring and counting precise calories, I know i'm within those margins as i mostly am using pre-packed frozen single serve size meats + fish.
Workout routine is horrifying. thats the best I can come up with for it. I decided to go with a full body workout centered around 20 rep squats. I'm not doing breathing squats, so what i'm shooting at is my 20rm for them. I may try the breathing squats, not sure yet. The rest of the exercises I will be rotating week to week. This past week was 2 exercises per major body part, one each for bis/tris, 1 set for each exercise for 20 reps or as close as I could get. Next week will be the same number of exercises, but 2 sets of 12-15 for each exercise other than squats, which will stay at 20 the whole time. The following week will be the same but with 3 sets of 6-8 reps per exercise, and the week after will be back to single sets of 20. I'm varying most of the exercises between the 3 workouts a week, wide grip pulldowns every time, db flies every time. The weights i'll be showing look ridiculously low, but this is on a leverage machine and I don't know the weights of the arms. The squat one feels like its in the 50-60lb area empty, the bench press one around 55-65, the pulldown around 40-50. But i'm just guessing. So i'll just be tracking weights vs my existing weights.
Cardio, well, I hate cardio, but who doesn't? I'll be shooting for at least 30 minutes of HIIT at least 2 days a week. cardio days i'll also do ab work, I may throw in random ab work other days. I also may do pushups, walkouts, pullups, chinups and other bodyweight work on off days.

The science is all sound on MMv2, and with a little luck, it will be exactly what I need to push me over the edge of abs.Methyl Masterdrol V2 Androstane Ester (DSHEA compliant prohormone) + Gut Enzymes (17bHSD) = Androstanediol (prohormone) + Liver/Muscle Enzymes (3a/3bHSD) = Stanolone (ACTIVE STEROID)
