Building muscle; losing fat
Since starting this journey, I have made tremendous progress. Make no mistake about that. At one point, I weighed more than 250 pounds, and much of that weight was nothing but lard. My back and legs ached; my lung capacity was abysmal; and I got fatigued at the mere thought of exercise. Comparing myself now to what I was then gives me a sense of accomplishment and pride.
That being said, I’m not satisfied. I want more. I want to add ten pounds of hard muscle, while reducing my bodyfat percentage to about 8%. Why? Because it has ALWAYS been my dream to have a physique that would turn heads. Does this make me vain? More than likely. However, I think pursuing this goal is good in that it will allow me to become healthier than I am today. It will enhance the foundation that I’ve put in place.
