LOST 10 POUNDS & OTHER STUFF
NEED A BIGGER MORE OPEN GYM!
Ok first let me tell you where I workout… I work for a small Catholic College in Ohio so everything is small even the gym … it is moderately supplied with equipment but many exercises are out of my league as the speciality stuff is MIA…..some of y’alls (Ohio accent for ya) gyms could hold 4 or 5 of mine seriously. Whewn next I change jobs looking for a full tilt gym to hook up with!
ADDICTED!
Also my gym functions as a large meeting space whenever the college needs it , which means the building is shut down to exercise and sports very often. so despite my passion and drive The gym was closed today Friday til Sunday so no third lift this week ….. this makes me cranky. I am officially addicted to watching my body change and the lifters high…. and having to go 4 days without any lifting makes me almost depressed…its wild how my mood is attached a little to workouts…….
SUPPLEMENTS SELECTED
Well chose my initial supplementation stack. will order it in the next few days. I am going to test drive Controlled Labs first. Later I hope to try Muscle tech, Muscle Pharm, Gaspari, BSN, and advocare
My initial stack for CL is
REDuction (fat burner)
White Flood (pre workout NO)
Purple Wrath (post workout recovery)
will add Orange Triad (multi) and Green Magnitude (protien ) when such needs to be resupplied
Why I chose CL…watch for my next general training missive (called epic by some 
thanks man) will be on supplements from a new guys perspective and in that I will explain my loic for CL first
LOST AT LEAST 10 LBS!
My initial weight in august was 183-185 ish now after droping to 180,179, 175… my last weigh in was at 170 (technically 169.8) on 10/01 less then 2 months in! …. even if that number is freaky low and the regular number is a few pounds higher I have lost at least 10 pounds give or take! we will do a few more weighs and see what the average is …..
But more then weight is that my whole body is getting more solid , defined and properly proportioned. My abs are vaguely visible even at rest My love handles are nearly gone that “U” where my abs sit is visible at rest. My Biceps are rock solid at rest. My chest is showing good lower pec development at rest .. the upper any ideas? My clavicles have filled in (i cant put my fingers easily in that space any more. the bony part in between my pecs is slowly starting to shrink…. my snug pants now need a fuly tied belt to hold them up… my shirt all hang lose off my shoulders ….. losing 10 lbs and starting to replace it with muscle makes all the difference! This is just the beginning
CLOTHING SUGGESTIONS?
Hey while I think about it . any thoughts about good clothing lines/stores/sites for a guy like me that is undergoing a style/body transformation. stuff that would more flattering to my physique as things get better but isn’t something that screams show off/ or i dunno ‘man whore’ for lack of a better term?
MY FIRST REAL COMPLIMENT
Ok so I had horrible luck with women in my life .. have had a few girlfriends and one almost fiancee …. part of it is my fault and part of it is my appearance (I just did not look the part or care to look the part (who wants a teddy bear when they can have an Adonis?) and part of it is the kind of girls I dated and there lack of care for me and my feelings……. all that having been said a honestly big part of my desire to get in smokin’ shape is to win the heart of a great girl to be my wife (no idea who she is or when we will meet) and if I have an attractive outside she might take the time to look at the inside as it were….. all the ‘compliments’ I have ever gotten from girls (seriously all of them until now) were more compliments based in ‘awww cute teddy bear’ kinds thing or came from a place where the girl felt like she had to encourage me… I have never gotten a comment based on obvious sex appeal or attraction …
Well…. Thursday I was walking around work doing my job . polo shirt kahkis and sneakers slightly scruffy . not badly dressed but not dressing to impress either…. a co worker of mine who is a ‘no bull’ girl call it like it is kinda gal (very pretty I might add) named Kathleen ….. she sees me in the hall and pases me by with the usual hello.
she gets a few paces past me turns and calls out “Hey… have you been working out? Having you lost weight? you look good!” (Direct qoute) .
I explain that I have etc .. and she gives me a the girl up down stare thing (never happened to me before ever) and says ..”keep it up” (big smile) and walks a way. I realized taht a gorgeous girl had just complimented me not out of pity or teddy bear-ness but out of legitimate sexual/biological appeal ….. wow!
I was curious so I ducked into the men’s room and stood in front of a mirror and saw what she saw. My biceps cuffed tightly by my polo shirt and obviously popping , the hints of pecs under the shirt and an untucked shirt that hung free and not over eveen a little buddah belly, and pants that almost sagged in a V hugging the hips (more V in time) ….I had to stop and think “wow .. I haven’t even strictly kept my diet or workout schedule and already I am getting noticed! what would happen if I hit it hardcore 100% of the time?” I had a smile on my face for the rst of the day
One of the long term goals on my bodyspace is to “get compliments and double takes from girls” … that happened! Now I am not so vain that I will log every compliment from a girl here for the world to see but I thought the first one in my LIFE would be worth noting
nor am I gona go for broke with a girl I bearly know …if something happens it will be in the context of dating courtshiup marriage process not a random comment in the hallway.. yet I am thinking that for the first time the kind of girl I would want to date/marry actually noticed me …so perhaps soon I will ask her out…we’ll see…. Looking to be a husbanmd and father not a freaky stalker you might see on COPS
WORKOUT CHANGES!
Given my issues with rehab of late (running has become too painful because my heel cord is acting up in both feet… this is an old injry from childhood inflicted by negiligent yet supposed medical genuises …. I digress) so for the time being high impact sports like running are on hold until this inflamation/pain subsides
Also given that I have basically lost two pounds a week just from regular workouts and basic clean eating/meal spacing/and calorie & content watching …… I am thinking I am gonna see about jumping to 5 days a week of weights and kill the cardio (I still get plenty of activity in my life I asure you … give the feet time to mend and really try to put muscle on …. and revist cutting later… any thoughts?)
NEW PICS UP BY 10/10!
Both I want to catch a glimpse of the transformation even in two weeks and I want to see what 3 solid lifts/diet will do in one week (starting 10/6) these will also give me a base line for measuring the effectiveness of CL supplements . Besides I will be honest , the comments, compliments, critiques on my pics spur me on better then anything else . you all are real folks like me, most of whom are in amazing shape (by my definition) and if you say my body looks good in these ways or needs works in these ways I believe that and it gives me real facts to draw on to measure my body transformation. Frankly I need you guys take on my transformation to keep me uplifted, honest, and encouraged! so when they come out …look at them and comment please!!!!!
Hope to hear from you all soon….. my brothers in the iron!
