Big boy needs to strip out, here's the plan, plz review and critique.

[1test4life]

still no excuse, you can get weights,bench,bars,etc,etc. Through the want ads for very cheap, how can you face yourself after a "hard core" workout out at healthfit surrounding by old ladies doing light cardio or whatever the **** they do. In those 12 years you my friend lost more than your health, you also lost your manhood.

Obviously the place sucked, which is why I am now some where else. Out grew it before my membership was up. Van Wert (Ohio) County YM is "the dungeon" and my new abode. Gig on me about the "healthfit" thing all you want, I think it is funny. At least I got off my ass and got going again, and that is what matters.

You didn't loose anything bro.. you got up and decided to make a difference in your life. It doesnt matter where you lift at all. The fact that a guy is next to me pressing 1000lbs and a 100yr old lady next to me pressing 2lbs isnt going to effect the amount of work I am doing at all. What matters is what you are dong not where you are doing it at. As long as you have the motivation, intensity, dedication and commitment you will achieve your goals no matter where you physcially are.

Wrapped things up with some 30/30 HITT for 10 cycles at 50%/70% resistance at 175-180 SPM for 100 cals.

Today's dietary info: 2779 cals, (214 carbs, 226 protein, 113 fats) with an estimated output of 4428 for an estimated deficit of 1649.

Tommorow we start adding some Alpha T2 into the mix, see if that helps.

At the 1/2 way point to my target I know I am not gonna be satisfied with what I see at 260, however, I am starting to get pissed about starting to see my strenght decline (see my bench work in my logs.) Once I hit 260, I may bump my intake up for a while and do a 6 week strength training program I have had good success with before. The last week is 3 sets of double taps at like 97.5% max, is balls to the wall fun of basic compound movements (Squats, deads, bench, OH Press etc) then go back to leaning out a bit more.

There is lots of great feedback on Alpha T2 from what I have read. I have a couple bottles myself that I got on sale with some erase in a combo pack Looking forward to seeing your results with it

[1test4life]

ok this is the plan, 1 bottle of oxy elite pro, pure creatine mono, beta aline, and bulk daa, those will be your supplements. The diet will be palumbo/anabolic, your trainning will be a one on one off split. There will be no ***** workouts, just hardcore balls to the wall trainning. You will do this until goal is reached.:****you:

I hate to break it to you but, you have some serious medical conditions and this is not the place to get advice. You need to speak with a Registered Dietitian, Cardiologist and a good Internal Med Doctor. Also a 12 year break is starting from scratch. Personally as far as diet goes I would tell you that if its white and comes prepackaged its not good for you. Processed foods breakdown to glucose too quickly and the body's response is to increase insulin and quickly. Insulin then stores the glucose as fat. Now the problem your morbidly obese with diabetes your systems are out of whack. Seek the advice of professionals that can help you attain your goals safely.

Ok, I see my PCP every 3 months minimum, have my A1-C and Cholesterol checked. I also discuss all supplement and dietary changes I am considering with him. (Feel free to read the logs where I posted about my last A1-C and Cholesterol numbers were looking good or my Diabetes, HTN aned Cholesterol were all in check.)

I also have ultra sound scans for my PAD and see my cardiovascular Surgeon 2x a year. Both of these QUALIFIED MEDICAL PROFESSIONALS support what I am doing. I have dropped 34 pounds since late Decemberwhile seeing my A1-c drop from 9.1 to 6.3 and my HDL rise while my LDL drops. but some how I need a dietician too?

All of this was covered through my posts (except the cardiovascular surgeon which one could infer from the statement that I had a fem to fem bypass.)

All being equal, I think I will keep doing what has been working for me. Thanks for your concern.

[1test4life]

I don't get how you can let yourself go like that, how does one face themselves in the mirror day after day without utter disgust. I say this because at my work, I see these fat middle aged men lumbering around, showing up to the lunch room with a small collection of different meds, for a whole bunch of bull**** health conditions. How the **** do you accept not being sexualy wanted by women old or young. I look at them like I look at you, I'm reffering to your old pics, and say how the **** do you go through life, how the **** do you get through the day. I can't relate as I promised myself I would never, ever let myself go. I would like to know what your mindset was all those years.

[shocknyou]

Fair enough for the things you have done. If you don't want to go to a dietitian at least go on line and checkout "The Diet Solution" by Isabel De Los Rios. I studied nutrition in college and no one ever broke things down the way she does. She doesn't teach dieting she teaches a lifestyle change. She shows you how to eat the natural way. I was surprised by some to the things I learned in this program. Best of all you can buy her books in PDF form for only $42 and you are e-mailed links as soon as you pay. When I started eating the way she teaches I noticed that I felt better than ever and slept better too.

That is something I would be willing to check into. Thanks for the info.

Wow, 54 rep and 4 whole posts all dedicated to me? Damn, I must really get under your skin for some reason. Not sure why, don't really care.

I have19+ year career working with alcoholics and junkies and sociopaths who would as soon slit your throat as smile at you. I have raised 3 healthy and ethical kids, one of which earned a scholarship to a great nursing college and all three love me deeply. Yet somehow you think that you are gonna get to me? Save your trolling energy for some reactionary 19 year old with a fragile ego that you can prey on little troll. You are insignificant in my life and always will be. Your opinion is meaningless because you have no standing. You are not even worth the head space to get pissed off about. Enjoy this tiny morsel of attention wee troll man, because this is all the attention you will ever get from me.

More free advice, first off your carbs are way to high, 200+ grams of carbs, are you ****ting me, how the **** do you expect to loose fat taking in over two hundred grams of carbs a day, your max should be fifty grams. With that many carbs in your system the body will never burn fat for fuel. Like I said before your diet should be palumbo/anabolic. I gaurante you if you don't imediatly drop your carb intake, you will make no progress.

[JudoJosh]

WOW... 1testlife is DEFINETELY negged..

taman dont listen to them bro.. you KNOW you are making progress with what you are doing so stick with it. Reps to you bro screw the haters
