Onlychevy6 and Chevy6s Chick - Teams up with Muscle Gauge Nutrition

[Onlychevy6]

Things are about to heat up in here with some major transformations getting ready to happen. First I would like to thank Muscle Gauge Nutrition for this opportunity. Second I would like to say if anyone has any questions please feel free to ask away either in this log or via a pm. In the next few days you are going to see the beginning stats along with pictures. In this log you will get video up dates as well as workout and nutrition updates. We will also give you our opinions on the strong product line that Muscle Gauge Nutrition has available to everyone and to see the transformation of the both of us.

To give you all an idea of my personal goals and background for toughs who have not followed along any of my previous logs along my journey.

I am an ex athlete that retired from sports in 2003. I was in pretty good shape being 195-200 @ approx 10% bodyfat. After a few surgeries I gained a ton of weight. I blew up to 300 lbs of pure hell. I was out of breathe, had no energy and was just plain lazy. February of 2011 was the start of a new life. I finally had enough and made the choice to get back in shape. I have had a lot of support up til now and hope to continue to get that same very support from all of you. I will be running in my first ever Warrior Dash on the 17th of this month as a tool to stay motivated.

My current weight is 236 and am currently sitting at 24% body fat. My goal is to get back to 200 @ 10% or better. Even if that means going leaner and lighter. With the help of the supplements from Muscle Gauge Nutrition proper diet and training this should be one heck of a ride. This could not have come at a better time as I will be turning 39 this April and am excited to finally be able to walk around with my shirt off and feel confident again.

In the next couple of days I will post up starting picture as well as full body measurements. As well as all the supplements we will be using along the way in our introduction video.


The way this log is going to work is I will post my information and Cathie aka Chevy6s Chick will post her information separately but in this combined log. We hope to have feed back from both males and females. From novice to advance.


So like T.O. says get your popcorn ready so you don't miss the show.

Technically this log will start soon as we get some product in which should be any day now. However we will start this log with our workout for tonight. And as far as my diet. Well I use the Lean Gains (I.F.) diet. On my workout days I eat 2700 calories and for my non workout days I will be eating 1800 calories. Today I hit my mark on the nose by eating natural foods. Which is great. I haven't done that in a while. I tend to use whey protein and or a meal replacement drink with food to get my extra calories.

Our training for the time being will consist of 3 days a week training Mondays will be all push style training. Wednesdays will be Legs, and Fridays will be all pull. Cardio will be done on the off days as well as workout days. Especially for the next week plus since I have the warrior dash on the 17th of this month.

Here are the official measurements and starting pics for me. I am in no means happy with these. But things will change trust me. The pics were taken with our crappy camera as someone misplaced the battery for the good camera. I look puffy in these pics. I think in part because I have upped my carbs from the diet I was previously doing.

Body Fat: 24%

I see some big changes coming in the near future. And I am thankful to have Muscle Gauge Nutrition backing me and of course Cathie aka Chevy6s Chick. I want to also thank everyone of you whom are now following as well as those whom are just reading and not posting. Sit back relax and enjoy this transformation.

Oh and yes before any one asks. Yes that is a hernia in the belly button area. Soon as I reach my goal. I will then have it removed

 

[Chevy6s Chick]

These are just completely and utterly horrible!! I am without a doubt 100% positive that once I start taking the supplements that Muscle Gauge Nutrition is generously sending the measurements and pictures will definitely change!!

 

[MuscleGauge1]

Great Start to the Finish! Good Job! Keep fighting that cold. Vitamin C is key Natural not pill form. Eat an orange a day. That's the best way to get over it.

 

[lukehayd]

Good luck you two! You've already made some nice improvements and the way you hit the gym, I see more and better on the way!

So now the count down starts. Goodies are on there way. Couldn't have come at a better time. Need me some protein and bcaa for this up coming weekend.

 

[Onlychevy6]

3/13/12


Tonight was all cardio. Did 40 minutes of various speed and various incline. Went as high as 8.0 @ 7 mph. For the next couple days it will be this same way. If I can drum up the energy I will do double cardio tomorrow and Thursday. Friday will be a actual upper body workout along with cardio. Then when I get home it will be epsom salt bath time. As I have the Warrior Dash this Saturday. Strength wise I feel ready now as far as cardiovascular that is another story. But things can change in the next couple of days.

And of course like I mentioned earlier our supplements are on the brown truck and will be here before the weekend hopefully. I have been lacking in the whey protein and the BCAA's big time. But not for long. :dance:

 

[Onlychevy6]

3/14/12


This morning was good. Did about 20 minutes of jump rope when i got to the office. And will do some HIIT cardio tonight. No legs training tonight since I have the Warrior Dash on Saturday. Need to rest these mini tree trunks up. lol

 

[Onlychevy6]

I knew there was a reason I don't like nor use the brown truck shipping. Our package is not supposed to get to us until next week. Oh well. I will just have to make do for this weekend.

3/16/12

Today day was a ruff one. My uncle passed on a little over and hour ago. So my mind is all over the place. I was able to hit the gym before this all took place. I may consider doing another cardio session tonight or just relax I am not sure yet. I have the warrior dash tomorrow and my run starts at 12pm. I did not lift heavy tonight as i didn't want to go too hard and not have energy or strength tomorrow.

Started everything off with 10 minutes of cardio.

 

[Onlychevy6]

Over all the Warrior dash was fun and challenging. I know I could have done better over all but we ran as a group and didn't want anyone to get hurt or trampled on. We ran in knee deep sludge mud and chest deep water then had the 13 obstacles to do. The hardest one for me was the 20 feet long cargo net you had to spiderman walk across using only your hands and feet. I thought my Hernia was going to explode. Wow I was plum wore out and then I had 4 others to hit before the finish line. There were people literally losing there shoes after the first 50 feet of the starting line. And they couldn't find them. It would have been way better had we been in the first 2 heats but no we started at 12 pm and it kicked off at 9am. Heats going every 30 minutes. Oh and having been in the water and mud you don't realize how much extra weight you are carrying. Especially when your pockets are full.

I ran the thing in a fasted state and started cramping in the calves just after the finish line. Finished up and at 2 bananas, a turkey leg, and chugged a miller lite and 2 gatorades. lol I was thirsty.

 

[Onlychevy6]

Well well well. Some product showed up today. More is on the way But for now check this little stash out. This is all for me, Cathie aka Chevy6s Chick will post up some of the goodies she received.

Pictures are a little bad. Once I get everything and someone finds the battery to our good camera Clearer pics will be posted to show everything.

Thank you to MGN for this product and I can't wait to fuel the body with some of this. Yummy looking stuff.

 

[MuscleGauge1]

That's a pretty picture you got there! Glad I could help! More on the way! Enjoy it all!

 

[Onlychevy6]

That's a pretty picture you got there! Glad I could help! More on the way! Enjoy it all!

Absolutely. Let me tell everyone this. I mixed up some oatmeal with the 2 scoops gauge lean. And omg it tasted good.

Cathie does not really like oatmeal says she will start eating oatmeal if it will taste like this all the time.

Wow is all I can say. So far a thumbs up on the flavor.

 

[Chevy6s Chick]

Today, was the first day that I took all the "goodies" that MGN sent to us out of the kindness of their heart! This morning, I took the (3) three vitamins, along with (2) two scoops of BCAA with water (mixed berry) (the flavor was good but not keen on the after taste) since I went to the gym and did cardio, drank the whey protein (vanilla) yummy!! I also mixed the whey protein (vanilla flavor) in my oatmeal and all I can say is DELICIOUS!! I am so NOT a fan oatmeal either!!!

Blonde moment and I'm not even blonde... I also started the Lean Gains diet and I am not sure about starting at 12:00 noon and eating alot at one sitting! After I had my lunch all I wanted to do was come home and take a nice long nap!!! I am already crabby when I don't eat and now I have to wait until noon Jeff's going to hate life now!!!! I was told I had to eat about 1800 calories on workout days and about 1300 non workout days!!!!! Who in their right mind does that!?!? Oh, wait we do!!!!!

 

[Onlychevy6]

Morning Session

Talk about a rush. This morning was the first day of taking multiple products. 3 scoops of Alpha Rage, 2 scoops of BCAA Extended, 1 scoop of no2xl, and the multi- vitamins and man was it a rush. Within the first 20 minutes I was pumped up and ready to go. I like this feeling.....


Evening Session

Went in for round two. A quick work out nothing major. Only did what was available. Home gym type stuff with a cable machine. Took 3 more scoope of Alpha Rage and 2 more scoops of BCAA extended.


Chest Press

3 sets of 12 maxed machine out. Machine was not labeled so have no idea how much it was.

Cable Flys

3 sets of 12 half the stack.

Ez Bar Curls - Wide Grip

3 sets of 12 50 lbs

Ez Bar Curls - Narrow Grip

3 sets of ez bar curls narrow grip.

Concentration Curls

3 sets of 12 with 25 lb dumbbells.


Things will be back to normal on Friday. Once I get back in the gym. Thinking of using the Warrior workout for the next 90 days. Any ideas would be great. We want results. I can make it were we train one body part every day, or 3 days a week using the push, legs, then Pull method or full body workouts 3 days a week like I said using the Warrior workout. Cardio to be done on non workout days.

 

[Onlychevy6]

Looks like I have finally gotten the diets in order and have incorporated the MGN products into them. Cathie will be using the Lean Gains / IF protocol diet as well as I. Her calories will be approx 1800 on workout days and 1400 on non workout days. Mine has not changed much still will be about 2700 on workout and 1700 on non workout days. It will be an adjustment but it will get done. Having to design nutrition programs for adults that have kids is always a fun task. We want them to eat healthy but still be kids as well. This should be interesting to watch unfold.

We have already began using the supplements and will be going full throttle come Monday. I say Monday because we have to go shopping for some food. LOL... Hopefully the remaining items are on there way this up coming week. Which won't effect the calorie intake at all just extra product to help aide in fat burning and recovering.

Soon as we get all products in we will take a small video of what we have and get this thing rollin. We both have a lot to accomplish. With the help of MGN (Muscle Gauge Nutrition) and all of you it will be fun. Oh and for those of you who don't know. Cathie and I will have been together for 11 years now. Well we are finally going to make it official on August 18th of this year to legally get married. Good god what am I thinking. LMAO... In all reality she is a good woman who has been the only person I have ever dated and or married to that knows how to deal with me. She and I are a lot of like in the means of neither of us are jealous people. And we don't typically take much crap from anyone. But boy oh boy do we give each other a hard time in all fun and games. She has seen me go from a person who was in shape to my absolute worse time in my life. She has seen me be completely healthy to literally be told had I not gone into get taken care of I would not have woken up the next day. And she is still here, I just can't seem to get rid of her.

Once again I want to thank all of you for checking in and watching all this unfold in front of everyone to see. I know I have yet to see a couple complete such a transformation on these boards since I have been around. So this just might be a first. I do know there are many of you whom have spouses and or girlfriends or boyfriends whom are training. But you lucky people are not part of the Skin Chub club like us. Ha Ha Ha...


Oh and as for the workouts. It was decided today that we will be doing the Warrior Workout. So let the fun begin.

 

[Chevy6s Chick]

Finally got in the gym tonight. I am still taking the vitamins that MGN provided along with the other goodies. Since taking the vitamins I definitely see a difference in energy! The vanilla protein is the "bomb"!! I am getting used to the Lean Gains diet slowly but surely!!! Below is tonight's workout...

Today was a descent day. I knew once I broke my fast that there was no way I was going to get my pre-workout meal being I was so busy. So I ate both of my calorie meals at lunch and man was I stuffed. Chicken, Green Beans and Yams. The workout was good just not solid because I was feeling a little blah since I didn't get that pre-workout meal in. Today was the first day of the Warrior Workout and diet to take place.

Tomorrow if everything goes smoothly I am going to try and get in morning cardio then hit cardio again when I get home from work.

Just realized you did the Warrior Dash! I remember us talking about that. Great work!

Ladies and Gents it was on like donkey kong tonight. I personally hit some personal best in my lifts tonight and I was not going extremely heavy, it just felt right. I didn't even need any spotting from Cathie which was a surprise to me. I just went in after taking some 1 scoop of No2xl, 3 scoops of Alpha Rage, 2 scoops of BCAA extended and lets just say I was focused like a huntin dog. And to top it all off I was so worn out we didn't even hit the last exercise that was planned which was Stiff leg deads. I was sweating like I was in a steam room wearing a sweat suit.

As far as the squats are concerned. I don't usually like to do squats mainly because of my hernia. And I have not really done just regular barbell squats since my ACL replacement back in 2001. I put on the weight and just went for it leaving all fear behind. I don't know how heavy I could truly go on this exercise but we will find out in the near future. With or without knee wraps and a back brace which I do not own yet.

Just to let everyone know this up coming weekend there will be some updated pics and measurements. Last week was crappy training wise because I was not around to train. Only had one day in the gym and that was last Monday. Misc workouts happened but not a full on training session at a gym.

Tonight's workout was another surprising one. I forgot how much I liked the Warrior Workout. I was feeling the pumps big time for the first time in a long time. Feeling in them from the forearms up thru the shoulders. Diet was on point again today. Only down fall was my water intake was weak. I drank a little over a half a gallon. And I need at least a gallon minimum. I was just super busy at work today and just didn't think about drinking fluid.

After taking 3 scoops of Alpha Rage, 2 scoops of BCAA extended and a scoop of NO2XL I was ready to go. I am really liking the mental focus and the pump these products are giving me, especially at my size currently. My plan is to get some pics this weekend and some more measurements to gauge progress if at all.



Arnold Presses

12 reps 40 lbs
12 reps 65 lbs (Ties PB to date. I think)
12 reps 65 lbs

Hammer Strength Super Incline

12 reps 180 lbs
12 reps 270 lbs (PB to date)
10 reps 270 lbs
7 reps 180 lbs
11 reps 90 lbs


Reverse Grip Bench Press

12 reps 140 lbs
12 reps 190 lbs (Ties PB to date)
10 reps 190 lbs
10 reps 140 lbs
8 reps 100 lbs


Seated Leg Curls

12 reps 90 lbs
12 reps 135 lbs
12 reps 135 lbs
12 reps 115 lbs
10 reps 100 lbs


Leg Extensions

12 reps 80 lbs
12 reps 110 lbs
12 reps 110 lbs
10 reps 95 lbs
10 reps 80 lbs


When it came to the DB Pull Overs. Focused on keeping the butt up and the abs tight. And man did I feel the stretch from the abs all the way up into the chest area. I am not purposely going heavy I am just using weights that feel comfortable that allows me to get 10-12 solid reps if possible. Especially during the warm up and main work sets.

Man this weekend was full. Ended up fixing the riding lawn mower so I could mow the yard. Had to go to the bridal place which always takes forever. Then went to the bridesmaid's house and hung out there for a long while. Then comes Sunday. Was pretty much non stop from the moment we woke up. Mostly yard work cut down a big ole oak tree that was dead. It was maybe 5 yards away from the front door. Lets just say I was more nervous of this thing blowing over in a wind storm than me cutting it down. We have already had a tree blow over and smash a windshield. So as redneck as I can be. I tied a rope about mid way up this tree which was approx 30 feet tall. Hooked the rope up to the ball of my truck and went to cutting. I had Cathie sitting in the drivers seat making sure there was tension on the rope at all times. She was scared mainly because of the not knowing. Plus as she was keeping tension the tires would just spin since the tree was not budging at first. Got the first cut done then did a relief cut on the opposite side of the tree. Then came the 3rd cut. Soon as I completed the 3rd cut and she had tension it was starting to to fall over. I put the chainsaw down and told her to gun it. All 4 tire were spinning then all of a sudden timber and she got traction and down came the tree.

LOL Her heart was racing a mile a minute. Ha Ha Ha.


Then came the clean up part. Not fun at all. Cutting limbs and burning piles of wood.

So needless to say no measurement or Pics done yet. They will come.

I was saturated in sweat all day today so I had a good burn going on. I also did not break my fast until 3pm...

Ok today pre workout I did a cheesy little video with my phone. Have no idea how you will be able to see it. I am uploading it now to be able to post. These will get better as time goes along.

Now for tonight's workout. It was a nice work out over all. I will admit I got frustrated with my self that I did not hit my mark of 10-12 on my second work set. After taking my Alpha Rage, NO2XL and BCAA's I felt great. I may have to drink it on the way to the gym in lieu of at home then leave for the gym. It takes us approx 25-30 minutes to get to the gym and everything seemed to kick in right when I hit the gym.
