It has been almost 6 years since I went out with friends to a bar or restaurant. Mainly because I am always in the gym or at work or at home helping my beautiful wife with the kids and spending time with her. Last time I had a guys night out was for my bachelor party when I was in the U.S. Navy. We docked in N.J. and we went to the WWE restaurant in N.Y. Damn it has been a while.

So, because I am a huge wrestling fan, and an ex-boxer, I decided that I want to go see Wrestlemania 24. My wife suggested that I go with my cousin’s husband who is just as much of a wrestling fan as I. He is also an ex-wrestler. So we are heading over to Red & Jerry’s to go and watch it.

Before we do that, I need to go to the gym and work on my chest. I have been having great work out days. Largely because I have an awesome partner who pushes me. My Wife. We feed off of each others energy and never give up. It is awesome.

Well, now I need to go eat breakfast and go to the gym.

Lift Big, Live Strong!

So I am on Week 3 of my Pre-Contest phase of my workout and diet. And all is going great. I am starting to lose some body fat. I now weigh 209 at 16.2% body fat. I know that is isn’t all that much, but considering that I am a diabetic trying to not have simple sugars, I am doing great. I won’t say that it was easy, ’cause it hasn’t been. I have had to carb up several times because my sugars were below what they are suppose to be at. But once they are back to normal, I go straight back to my diet. It has gotten to the point where my doctor has questioned whether or not I should continue with the competition. Whether it is worth it. And my answer is hell yeah! I know that I should listen to my doctor, but I know what to do if I feel that I am putting myself in danger. I will not take it to that point, but I will not give up on my dream.

By way of my workouts and progress in that area, I am doing great. I am lifting heavier than before and I am noticing the muscles that were hidden in some fat. I am loving it and so is my wife.

Well, that is all for now. See ya guys later!

I am in my pre-contest phase, but I am having trouble losing the fat. The last week I have gone from 207 at 14% body fat to 211 at 17.4%. I have kept to my diet, yet I have gained weight. I know that it has only been a week, but now I have to really tweak my diet. I will also probably have to bring up my cardio. I currently am doing 30 minutes. So, now it will have to go up to 1 hour, or have to do cardio twice a day.

I will give an update at the end of this week.

In 2 days, I begin preparations for my first amateur competition, the Mile High. I am very excited to begin this stage towards winning my first contest.
