I am not going to go crazy in authoring this post, it is exactly what it says it is. I decided to set up another transformation type challenge with some of my buddies on here. Just something we can do to keep each other accountable and put a bit of a challenge / competitive edge into reaching our goals before summer!
These goals can be to gain muscle, lose fat, increase weight lifted by x amount.. Whatever it is. If there is not someone in that goal category then just stick with it in here and get the extra accountability and support.

I have decided I will be offering up my bottle FRL AlphaBulk to whoever wins, or wins 2nd place if I take 1st. We have had one or two others who have mentioned adding in some of their supps they have lying around also.

My goals are to lean up without losing any appreciable muscle mass. There will be abs when it is all said and done.

The dates are stating tomorrow February 3rd, and go through May 6th for a 3 month transformation.

Preferably all Before pictures will be taken, and a good morning weight recorded by Monday of next week for any who intend on getting in on this.

I will be taking my starting pics and weight first thing in the morning tomorrow, and will post them up in here.

Rules - Starting pics must be up by no later then Wednesday 2/7/18, at that point progress pics will be taken and uploaded into this thread every other weekend until the final weekend.

VOTING - Let's try to keep this from becoming a popularity contest. We will take some voting a few times throughout, but please everyone vote on peoples progress not just your favorite person or closer friend out of the people in the challenge. Also keep in mind that progress and the ending physique are not the same thing. If I get down to abs and look like a stud but someone else who is not as muscular makes more progress then me, that person should win even if I end up looking much better. It is about making progress, and not the end physique.

Here are a few of the people I think mentioned they were in on this one, or might be interested in doing it.

HIT4ME, kenpoengineer, chedapalooza, hairygrandpa, silentSavage0523, booneman77, love2liftkat

I don't mind if others get in on this but don't hop in on it if you are not going to stick it out to the end please. You don't have to win to benefit from this so if you sign up just stick with it and you will still make more progress than usual.

Also, let's have some fun in this particular thread, do a little fun trash / smack talk and be competitive. It will only spur us on to do better. No one wants to look bad after talking smack to someone. That also means don't be a whiny punk if someone talks smack playfully. It is all in gest and to have more fun while doing something hard and challenging!

I will be tracking my personal progress and workouts in my current log. You can find it in my signature if you would like to follow.

We can figure out prizes or exactly who we will vote or any of that other stuff during the first week or so... Right now it is just about getting it started now instead of "Waiting for the perfect situation to arise to take action!"

Awesome man! This is going to be fun. I am looking toward something around me in my avatar as far as body comp.
Subbed to support!
Awesome!
Also I want to frontsquat 405!
Even Better! I am gonna have to work on that with you since it was both of our goals. May not progress as fast being in a deficit but I am sure I can still make a decent increase from current strength. Then again that SSB bar might have given me a little carry over and I might surprise myself.

Heres where I am starting....Christmas was fun!


Edit to include method & goals:

My goal bodyweight is 95kg (209Ib) from 105kg (231Ib) at last weigh-in. If I can achieve this without too much loss in strength I will go for 90kg. I would like to be able to maintain a new weight range without compromising strength.

Currently I am recovering from a psoas tear for which I must avoid free-weights for atleast another 3 weeks. Thus I am doing some cardio to keep up energy expenditure and attempting to maintain strength using Hammerstrength machines as well as gentles pilates based exercises prescribed by physio. All workouts are completed in the am before 9-10hr work days during which I am fairly active (between 17k and 20k steps working all day from a ladder).

At the moment I am cutting by attempting to eat less than 3000cal/day which so far has enabled me to drop 2kg in the first week (been cutting for 2 weeks now). Regarding macros, I just try to eat more than 200g protein and focus on 35g fibre as I find this ensures my diet is clean and sustainable - I find IIFYM becomes difficult when I eat crap food. Started taking cardarine yestetday, and still tweaking dosing protocol (yesterday i think it might have knocked me out).

I have a log in here under training logs with day-to-day detail.

With your progress on Ostarine, you could easily risk a challenge of, lets see, add 0.5 inches to your biceps in 3 month -or something like that.

I’m in! I’ll put up a bottle of Xgels as well for either first or second (we can figure that out whenever).

Pics weight and goals I’ll get up tomorrow after my normal weigh in. My diet and training (at least for now) will be dictated by my coach, so results are somewhat out of my control unless we part ways but regardless, commitment and effort is all on me so I will be sure to maximize my side of the deal :)

Okay guys, here I am in my "Mehhhh...." physique stage...

Weighed in today at 211.7 - a bit flat and depleted from cutting carbs back a good bit already. I also want to add my goal is to lean back out and improve my overall fitness level. In the end I want to reach a point where I feel confident with my shirt off. Not just comfortable, but confident. No specific weight in mind in mind but composition will close to my avatar and will definitely be sporting abs.

Oh yeah my puppy wanted to show you all his progress too. He is just a little over a year now and closing in on 130lbs.

Yesterday I frontsquat 315+70lbs of chain for a triple, and next week I am thinking 335+70 for a single. Slowly but surely, week by week, I am inching the weights up and lowering the amount of chain as I wave back the sets & reps.

Sweet and get in on it man! It isn't just weight loss. If you say you want to add X amount of weight with a muscle to fat ratio of... or just I want to gain x amount while remaining lean or whatever. Even if no one else is doing the same thing you can get in on the support and accountability from it.

Excited to see everyone's commitments so far. This is going to be great! Lots of potentially awesome transformations and some great goals already!

By the way I edited my post above with this information. Just wanted to be clear on my goals for this.

"I also want to add my goal is to lean back out and improve my overall fitness level. In the end I want to reach a point where I feel confident with my shirt off. Not just comfortable, but confident. No specific weight in mind but composition will close to my avatar and will definitely be sporting abs."

Starting weight: 190.0lb

Waist: 35.75in

Goals: recomp into cut. Basically trying to shape up for my wedding in September. Goal is to have my full abs back and be around 10% by July so I can cruise to the finish line.

For this challenge timeframe, looking to maintain as much size and weight as possible while leaning out. Expecting to have a solid 4 pack by the end of this 3mo timeframe and maybe even 6 with a hard flex and some fancy lighting ha.
