2011 ScottyDoc's famous FINAFLEX sponsored Hallow-Lean / 16wk SHREDDDD!!!

Omg you brought Terry Tate the office linebacker back from the dead. His stuff is funny.

Oh and I think the word fire has been eliminated from my vocabulary due to rescent events. Lol

Ooops... Sorry Bro, I wasn't thinking on that one! Have you found any out anything new to share about your house? I hope all is well!
 
Like I said, it's Game-Time now Baby, time to put-up... or shut-up! I mean honestly, talk is cheap, I want my actions and my progress pictures to really start representing the body I keep claiming I will have in just shy of 7wks now, still seems like I have such a long way to go (physique-wise) but it is now time to tighten everything up, no more big steaks on Sundays, no more Chipotle, I gotta start following my perfect diet 7 days a week and squeeze in some cardio here and there when I can, the workout is already right on target, consistency...consistency...consistency!!!

Set 1 - 25 reps each side
Set 2 - 25 reps each side
Set 3 - 25 reps each side

Set 2 - 1 minute of swim kicks
Set 3 - 45 seconds of swim kicks
* I did these just because I had the time and the energy and wanted to put a little more emphasis on my lower-lower abdominals!

- OK, I finished this entire workout in 1 hour and 10 minutes, again I was booking it! I didn't have the time nor the energy at this point to do cardio, honestly I think if I can keep my workouts this intense and my diet completely strict 7 days/week from here til Halloween, with an occasional cardio here and there, I think I will still be able to come in lean enough!

Diet:
Meal 1 - 6 egg whites/1 yoke (pre-workout)
Meal 2 - 6 egg whites/1 yoke & 1 can of green beans (post-workout)
Meal 3 - 8oz baked chicken & 1 can of green beans
Meal 4 - 2 cans of tuna in water & 1 can of spinach

Way to Kill It yet again!

You, Kleen and Green should all get together and come out with a journal for diet and workouts. Listing what to eat and what workouts to do. I'm sure with the amount of detail you guys put into your logs, you would be able to make one sweet farking journal that would be gobbled up from book stores!!!

Oh wow, everything about this workout SCREAMMMMSSSS burning and hugee pumps! Keep focused man, keep thinking about how lean you'll be after all this dedication, That in itself is motivating! You already have the mindset,now you just need time. :)
 
Nice work brother, impressive speed as well. I assume your form and technique were stellar...I love a heavy lift while gasping for air...my kind of stuff! Diggin the swim move as well.

Here's another swim move if you're interested. Lay chest down on a flat bench>wrap a heavy resistance band around a stationary object at bench height>make sure there is a good amount of stretch on the band (adjust the distance from the bench to the band handles)>grip the handles with palms facing outward and arms with slight bend at elbows>Row the handles back towards your hips as if you were pushing water, keeping your palms out then slowly return to start and repeat> kick your feet as if you were swimming during the entire set. Yes you look dumb, but it's a nice full body destroyer.

Nice, but that sounds like something I'd rather do in the privacy of my own home! LoL

Yes... my form is always good, that is probably the most important thing about a workout in my opinion, good form, the rest can vary from person to person, different opinions of whether heavy weights is better light weights are better high volume, low volume, etc. To me I think it should be something that is varied and changed up to always be shocking the body, no right way really, only that if you are doing the same thing for weeks, months, even years and getting the same result, but expecting a different result, then you are just following the official definition of INSANITY! "Insane in the Membrane... Got No Brain... Gone Insane!!!"

- Wow... This workout was completed in 50 minutes, again I was cruising through this workout, but don't let my speed fool you, my back was burning like it has never burned before. Something I try to teach all beginner weight lifters is the mind body connection with their muscles, well with some muscle groups that can be easier said than done, while others are easy for everyone, anyway my opinion is you will never truly make the gains you want to make if you can achieve this, it is more than just going through the motions, anyway, with this being said, shoulders and back have always been two body parts I have always struggled to make that mind body connection with, well with doing sets of 25 reps and maintaining proper form, that connection has been made my friends, yesterday my shoulders were burning and today my back was on fire, when I was finished with a set, I didn't even give the muscles time to have that "red hot poker from deep within the muscle feeling" go away before I was starting my next set, wow, the burn, mentally I had to really push through the burn! Needless to say I am very pleased with all of my workouts this week thus far, full of energy, feeling the burn, enjoying the pump, sweating like a mad-man!

"I'm Kicking My Own A$$... Do ya MIND!!!"
"A Mad Man Your Honor... A Desperate Fool at the End of His Rope!"

Haha yes I remember when I did those rep ranges I was on fire, and people looked at me like I just came out of the swimming pool. It really gets you sweating, which fuels the fire even more!
 
Great workout again Al, it is like you have a deadline or something.

Oh yea now we are talking :)

Epi-V looks like it's one of the best PH fat burners ever. Oldfugger, onlychevy, and you are producing amazing results!
Perhaps if I dont achieve the bodycomp I want by December Ill run a cycle of Epi-V ;)

Yah know, it is not going to be easy, but I will die trying my friend! Put it this way... if I lose this little bet/challenge, I'm gonna make that $hit look good, I'm talking ScottyDoc style Baby, balls to the wall with no shirt, Pink Tutu, combat boots and dancing my Fugging A$$ off to Lady Gaga!

Hands down, for pre-contest style body recomposition, EPI-V is one of the best... if not the best product on the market!

hahaha, DAMN. When does your tutu challenge end? December? Gonna turn up the heat even AFTER hallowLean huh?
 
hahaha, DAMN. When does your tutu challenge end? December? Gonna turn up the heat even AFTER hallowLean huh?

I have to reached my goal by DECEMBER 1st or it's TUTU-TIME!!!! As far as turning up the heat, wether I am pretty much there or not, I'm going to continue to drop my body fat and do anything and everything necessary diet/nutrition & exercise wise to hit that goal! I am actually very excited about it, because last time I dropped my body fat down to 4.6%, I was 183Lbs overall body weight and 175Lbs lean body mass, this time... even if I lose some muscle I don't see myself dropping below 205Lbs of overall body weight nor dropping my lean body mass below 195Lbs, I really don't think either one of those will actually get that low, but for saying sake (worst case scenario) if they do, that is still a very dramatic difference in body composition even over a 3yr period!!!
 
Good stuff, I figured I would give you a little fun motivation.

- OK, so I finished this workout in RECORD speed... you can call me "The Flash" I finished the entire workout in 45 minutes flat, Oh Yeahhh! I was feeling good too, I mean I'm talking a very deep burn and the pump was ridiculous, God I love the way I look in the mirror after a good workout, I know everyone that works out has said this on more than one occasion, but I'll just say it again, why can't I look the way I look after a workout all the time... LoL!

Diet:
Meal 1 - 6 egg whites/1 yoke (pre-workout)

So big Al, are you going back to lower reps next week or continuing this high-rep stuff?
 
Cable flys of any kind really activate my chest, even at low reps I get a crazy pump! So easy...I wouldn't say so, effective hell yeah. Just wondering how long of a rest between sets Doc. At a 45min duration it couldn't have been too long. Killer my man...KILLER!

- OK, so I finished this workout in RECORD speed... you can call me "The Flash" I finished the entire workout in 45 minutes flat, Oh Yeahhh! I was feeling good too, I mean I'm talking a very deep burn and the pump was ridiculous, God I love the way I look in the mirror after a good workout, I know everyone that works out has said this on more than one occasion, but I'll just say it again, why can't I look the way I look after a workout all the time... LoL!

Diet:
Meal 1 - 6 egg whites/1 yoke (pre-workout)
Meal 2 - 6 egg whites/1 yoke & 1 can of green beans (post-workout)
Meal 3 - 2 cans of tuna in water & 1 can of spinach
Meal 4 - 8oz baked chicken & 1 can of green beans
Meal 5 - 6 egg whites/1 yoke & 1 can of green beans
Meal 6 - 2 scoops of whey protein in water (pre-sleep)
2+ gallons of water all day

I hate that too because then you go home and after the pump leaves you look "smaller" Grrrr. It's like in the gym i look 240-250+ but when i get home it's back to 230 :( But it does show you what your gonna grow into which is cool. Gives me a jolt of confidence.
Nice workout too Al, i'm working on making my sessions a little shorter too. Not long now till you hit your goal!
 
So big Al, are you going back to lower reps next week or continuing this high-rep stuff?

Like I said in an earlier post a few weeks ago, it worked so well when I did that two weeks of high reps, that I have decided, for a few months anyway, I will continue to do 2 weeks of high reps, then 2 weeks of my more normal reps (10-15 rep range) with heavier weight, so two and two baby, they seem to really compliment one another, because each time I shift back from one to the other, it seems easier and I'm going heavier and more stamina, just really feel it is moving me in the right direction with better gains than I've had in a really long time, I mean when you are noticing positive gains in strength and stamina every two weeks, and consistently, that in my opinion is a very good thing, not to mention it does two more things, always keeps my body guessing and keeps my workouts from becoming so monotonous!

Oh, but to answer your original question, next week will be my 2nd week of high reps and then I'll go back for two weeks and keep switching, so that is where I am at on my little workout cycle!
 
Cable flys of any kind really activate my chest, even at low reps I get a crazy pump! So easy...I wouldn't say so, effective hell yeah. Just wondering how long of a rest between sets Doc. At a 45min duration it couldn't have been too long. Killer my man...KILLER!

Thanx, I was really trying to keep my eyes on the clock and keep my rest periods to around a minute, not that it didn't spill over a little as I started to get tired, I definitely was taking longer rests between my abdominal sets, by then I was pretty exhausted... Fast & Furious Baby!!!

Honestly... it will definitely take me all of these next 6 weeks to accomplish what I want to accomplish by Halloween and I'm pretty sure it is going to take me the additional 4 weeks to accomplish my goal and not fail the "Tutu Challenge" but honestly... I'm not all that worried about it, I mean if I have to wear the Tutu, I will wear it well and proudly, but as I told Kleen in a PM, I won't stop until I reach my goal of being under 4.6% even if it means going to January or even February because of the Christmas Holidays, whatever it takes, I won't stop my mission (minus going home to New Orleans, LA for a week during Christmas) until I hit my goal... and you can take that to the BANK!!!

That's the mind-set that gets you what you want!

That's the spirit! Undying, defined goal! You got numbers you need to hit. You got the time frame, but you know there are limitations. As long as you get there! Time to get SHREDDED!

I don't know if I just didn't remember quite how good EPI-V is at shredding me up or what, but I mean it is just amazing, I mean I know I am doing everything right in the gym and with my diet, but the difference it is making is noticeable, not just from one week to the next and hey, maybe it is in my head, but I feel I am noticing small but distinct changes on a daily basis, if nothing else the motivation I am getting from seeing these daily changes is PRICELESS!!!

Thanks Bro, that definitely seems to be the consensus... that EPI-V is one AMAZING Anabolic Shredding Compound, I mean for a guy like me... anything that can actually help you add muscle while burning the hell out of some fat is AWESOME!!!

Stop tempting me Al, SHEESH I JUST WANT TO FINISH BULKING!! xD
 
Quite honestly there are around 4 PH's I wanna try in december...

But you my friend stay as natty as possible! lol.

I'll be natty up till about 270-300 then dark side time... just sayin'! Gonna try to stay relatively lean too
 
270-300 O_O!?

That's gonna take some time but for now my goal is 250 with around the same BF % :D, I want to be one of the first guys to be gigantic naturally first then go from there....Hence why i'm back to compound lifts and more food again! I probably shouldn't have said that now i'm expecting a bunch of "fat" comments and a bunch of negative responses. Either way i'll log my journey there so i walk the walk. :firedevil:

Here's one of my motivators, guy has 21" arms 5'11" 290Lbs and has been drug tested hundreds, if not thousands of times. I do understand he could use HGH or something of the sort but this guy seems very honest and truthful.

I doubt you'll get the "Fat" comments.... 250 natty at the BF% you are at is pretty doable I think. There is this guy at the main gym in my Prefecture, He must be 5'10" 250lbs. All natty. No abs, but definitely not fat. STRONG AS HELL. When he cuts he starts his cuts at 5000cals...
