Soldier's Redefine Yourself Contest Log

"Abs are made in the kitchen", you ever heard that before? It's true. For a male, where you store your fat, first and foremost, is normally your "spare tire". I've been working on mine since February. It's a long road to travel.

Here's what I notice. You have broad shoulders. You have a good base, a solid foundation. I have also seen pics of your dietary choices. I'd recommend being more selective in the meat department, possibly seeking out lower fat content. Not sure if you're still putting granola bars in your face, but I'd drop those too. Water, and lots of it. No more drinking until you know your diet is on point, and even then there's no reason for it to be a habit. Although PXB is an amazing supplement and will provide you with appetite suppression, don't forget to eat. You have to eat to burn.

Yes I agree, and the sooner you are willing to bite the bullet and make the necessary changes the better you will do. I spent a lot of time looking for an easier softer way only to find out that was really what I was trying to avoid, cuz the only easier way is the right way an it ain't really easy.

Last night I took PX Black around 8pm. Normally I go to bed around 3:30, 4am... Took g8 at 11:30 and tried to go to bed at 12. I had an entire glass full of water and a quarter of a scoop cuz I was scared taking it because of the reviews on how powerful it is. Plus with caffeine in my system from PX Black and me trying to go to bed maddddd early, I couldn't sleep at first. Laid in bed and felt my temples vibrating, which is similar to me taking Melatonin so I know it was in effect. Closed my eyes and had rapid eye movements or REM's like crazy but I couldn't fall asleep due to all those factors listed before. Tonight I will try half a scoop and let the sleep begin! Felt great waking up though this morning, trying to find the sweet spot.

Let's try another quarter scoop without the PX Black so close to the dose first :)
 
Yeah that is pretty soon to be hitting the G8 after PX Black. Not saying it wouldn't work at another 1/4 but if you know you are wanting to sleep and have to do cardio take the PX a couple hourse earlier it will still do it's thing to help you burn fat. Try a cup of coffee for a small boost just before your cardio if needed it will wear off faster than taking PXB right before at like 8:30...
 
Destroyed legs today, always gets me jacked up hitting legs! Right knee feels a bit banged up but its all good. Work tommorow at 7am! Just had a nice post lift steak and now it's time to take some g8 soon and passout the correct way haha
 
Got my hemmorhoids checked out today, got a cream for it. TMI o.o! Still recommended to see a G.I. Doc so that will suck. Too young for diz **** man.
 
Really did a number on traps and shoulders the other day. Gonna hit up some back and core later, but damn am I sore. PX Black is still doing a good job for me! Have noticed at work when I sit down on break I realize my hands are all jitterry sometimes. Cuz I'm On a ****en roll that's why! 2 weeks left until contest end, let's see if I can burn some excess fat and water quickly and let my shaping of my core shine.

Better lock it down!
 
Been difficult lifting lately. A lot of work, chores, setting **** up for college, everything. My sleep schedule has been terrible and my diet is nothing to be proud of. Seemed like I crashed and burned this past week. Hit chest last night and core which felt amazing to get back into it. Took g8 because I'm sick of getting 4 hours of sleep. Took a half scoop at 12:30 and fell asleep really easily. Woke up and was so happy I got good sleep!

Everyone goes through this kind of thing from time to time.... some things are just more important... did I say that ? :( Yes I did and I meant it :)
 
It's hard keeping up for so long, eventually let it slip.. back on track now. Got like 9 days left and I'll be on vacation the 10th to the 17th. I'll bring some weights with me.
 
No worries with the slip. Just get back on the routine! Find the motivation again and just start where you left off.
 
Before and After: 2 months of progress. Main focus as I stated the entire time was really trying to shape my core. My diet was great at times and decent at others. My work ethic was pretty much on point until the week following vacation, just eventually crashed. Life moves fast and I had a few days left after my crash for upkeep on my progress. I am still proud of myself and I had a lot of fun doing this. Contest ends tomorrow for me I'm pretty sure so I'll either submit my pic today or tomorrow, idk if I just email it to them or not.

yes I can see the waist is obviously smaller, you made some headway
and that is all that matters
if you are pleased with the effort put forth and happy with results, nothing else really does matter

Taking some time off to get adjusted to moving back up to esu. New rooming, got my jeep up here, off campus, etc. Also trying to take care of my hemorrhoids problems as well with some leisure time and medications. Next cycle will begin when I get fully settled in.
