I just got the Bobo Cutting Program, and after looking over it, I am very hopeful, optimistic, and ready to get started! A little background, plus some stats/measurements.
Former football player (college, semipro and arena), so I have always been ok with being big. When I played arena I was around 315 or so. I played my last season in the summer of 2006, and am being forced out of the game by chronic shoulder problems (weird for a lineman, huh?). I finished the season at about 270-275 and felt fine. However, I moved in with my fiancee (Mexican girl, Mexican food..ALL THE TIME), and have steadily become fatter. I lost most of my motivation to eat with any discipline or work out with any consistency. Now that none of my clothes fit cuz my belly is too fat, it's time to do something about it. Here are some measurements that I am damn ashamed of (didn't realize how bad it had gotten til just now!)
Male
31 yrs old
6'3" 290 BF% Probably 23-25%
Belly (around the love handles and all) 47"
Waist (where I wear my pants, barely) 42"
Chest 53"
Shoulders (across) 28"
Bicep (flexed, cold) 18.5"
Upper Thigh (flexed, cold) 32"
Calf (flexed, cold) 18"
Neck 19"
These are my measurements as of today, and I start the program on sunday. I took some pics as well, and will post those when I can find my memory card.
I realize most of you will boggle at those numbers, wondering what a fatty like me is doing here. I hope to inspire some other big dudes to drop that weight, and prove that it can be done. My goals for the program are just as I stated, drop fat. At this point I barely even care about LBM, I just want to take off the fat.
Wish me luck.
