I need to take some more pictures, dropping 12 pounds in the last couple weeks has done well to my arms and shoulders, still have the stubborn belly (which keeps dropping lower and lower, dayum to having to most likely have to have a tummy tuck, and little love handles)
 
3/7/12

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.

ya boy, tear it up chevy!


Thanks brother. Like I said before. We are here for you. PM us or what ever if you need to chat. This is a brotherhood like no other. It does not matter if you are 300 lbs and obese or under 6% body fat and ripped. We all support one another. If you get a chance check out the new log me and my other half has started. If you have a wife or girlfriend get them to see everything. Let them see a female who is like the average female work her butt off and prove it can be done.

Lean gains is the simplest plan for those who are having trouble losing or for those who usually gain too much in the winter. Helps on both ends...

I know I feel a lot less desire for cheat
days sinceI get to satisfy my hunger and don't have to quite so carb restricted and I can allow myself some indulgences as long as I don't get stupid about it.

Here is some updated stats. 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.

Your face ... it has really leaned out one heck of a lot lately... you have lost that fat face look...

X2, I was a little worried, I have high hopes for all you guys so I am glad you soldiered through .. speaking of which Taman you are fugging so methodical but always push forward, you show great patience. Everybody has their pace and when I saw that you were going slower than some I sort of thought you might lose patience but obviously that is not the case. We all have a way to get things done, I have to go hard and fast cuz that's my nature... Now that I am more under control I can go slow but that's cuz I stay low year round now. 12-15% bf and lower it's better to go slow for sure. When you get down there you will already have the method in place.

It's all good DW, think I found my sweet spot. Weighed in at 260.6 this AM, down almost 8 overall and about 10 since I started IF protocols. I am just not willing to throw caution to the wind as far as preserving mass goes because failure to progress in the gym frustrates me more than not seeing the scale move.

Yah IF will kick start you .. fuggin A man!!! You will find you are going to really maintain mass well on this... Just keep feeding well on wd's to about 80% of your total intake after wo's and the world is your oyster .... or should I say 24 oz. Sirloin :)
 
Had a crisis thing to deal with at work so it was either break fast a bit early or not eat till it was already over so lunch occurred at 11:45, shut it down at 7:45. Hit 30 minutes of cardio after work for 180 cals. 1964 cals (157 carbs, 168 protein {plus 24g bcaa}, 71 fats) with an estimated burn of a little over 3500.

Did 10 minutes of cardio at a incline of 4 at a speed of 6.5 for warm up.
 
still here and still working out. Had my 2nd week of being on call in the last 3 weeks. Results in very little time to post online. Should be the last time for 4-5 weeks luckily. Those weeks always seem to screw me up, diet is never as good, work out times are sporadic, and sleep is slim, and it greatly cuts into the time with my kid.

Last week results: Exercise 390 minutes - Cals Burnt for the week from exercise: 5326

All in all a low week as I'm usually around 630 minutes and 8K burnt.

Weight wise on Sunday night I was up about 3 pounds, today I'm back down to what I was at the start of last week. Hoping to get a bit lower!
