I jumped on the scale today for the first time in a few weeks. And was I shocked! 185! I’ve been eating clean 90% of the time and I’m hoping it’s not fat. I’ve gotten stronger but I don’t think that I’m that much bigger. My arms have increased but that’s all that I have noticed. I’m scared now. When it’s time to measure the body fat, which I’m not anticipating much change, I hope it doesn’t increase. I’ll be devistated. Just thought I’d put that out there. One week and a half to go!

I’m close to finishing out 3 weeks of strength training and I’m so pissed. I look at everyone’s updated photos and I’m ready to start burning the fat. Being at 14% and knowing you were once 6% (or 8%, can’t remember the exact number but it was one of the two) is a drag. I vowed to myself that I would take it slow and then turn it up once my body was used to the various motions of weight lifting. I’m so pumped and ready to begin my 12 week workout. As promised, I’ll post new pics before I start. I don’t think they will be too much different than what I have up already, but we’ll see. I hope to drop to at least 9-10% after the 12 weeks. Wish me luck! Is it me, or does waiting to burn fat suck?

For all of you lovers out there, be very careful…Of course it is always important to treat your significant other to a nice dinner and maybe dessert. But whatever you do, don’t overdo it. Don’t buy into the mentality of "I’ll work it off on Thursday". Because as you sleep, it’s converting; and not into muscle. So basically, it’s not worth it! Now I’m not saying you can’t indulge, just don’t overdo it. Come on now, we all have a moment when we get weak and give in. However, it is solely based on how much you give in. But who am I to say these things, you guys are dedicated and already know this. Just a reminder, stay away from the love potions (chocolates, cookies, cakes, etc.).

Well, I’m two weeks into this workout and I can honestly say there is some change happening. I’m a firm believer that the Animal products are working extremely well. We’ll see exactly how well once I update my stats and photos after the 3 week cycle. For the most part, things are going well. I’m pumped about the 12 week program I’m about to endure. When the time comes, I’ll post a few sample workouts to give you guys (and gals) an idea of what I’ll be doing. Until then, keep up the great work…

I have been taking the Animal products (Pak, Stak 2, and Pump) for a week now and I can truly see the difference. I don’t get paid to promote any product so if I’m saying it works, I mean just that. I am aware that different supplements have different effects on each individual. Let me also say that my body does accept what I put into it pretty easily. But enough about me and my genetics; this stuff is truly amazing. I went from doing 2 sets of 6 reps with 225 to doing 2 sets of 8. And most importantly I feel like I can do more (I’ll find out next week). I’ll keep you guys posted. Also note that at this point in my training I am looking for strength only. I feel that my size is appropriate for my frame and will begin the cutting phase in 3 weeks. Happy Lifting!!!
