YUP…. u read it!

I’m on the TYRA BANKS show tomorrow afternoon. The episode is about unusual eating habits. I figures since I eat 6-8 times a day and people look at me like i’m crazy I would try out for the show. I got on for a few questions, TYRA interviews me from the audience. She even throws me a nice compliment on one of my pictures…

Hey guys,

I wanted to drop a line and let you know how things are over in TIGHT land. So I had my weight and bodyfat checked 12-27-08. I have a good friend,personal trainer, check all this for me. She usually uses a Scale w/ bio in it and calipers. My last reading said:

Scale (12-27-08)

190.2lbs

9.5% Bodyfat

61.3% H2o

4818 kcal/day

163.6 lean

Calipers

7.3% Bodyfat

I had her check everything yesterday 1-17-09 (about 17 days later). I was recently added into the Elite 12 and Dave Vignasse has helped me change my diet, my cardio plan, supplements, and mind set. So this time the measurements were.

Scale

186.6lbs

8.6% bodyfat

62.0% H2O

4767 kcal/day

162.2lbs lean

Calipers

6.7% Bodyfat

As you can see I have made great inprovements in only about a 2 week span. I am following Dave’s advice to a ‘T’ and expect great things in a few more weeks. I feel like my goals will be reached shortly.

I am still pursuing a modeling career and have been told to get leaner by a promising agent so that is what I am doing right now. It was frustrating at times and I was really having a hard time getting the fat off. I started to talk to Dave via email, phone, bodybuilding PM. He has helped me a lot and its only been a few days. These results have given me confidence in my new diet plan, and routine and also in myself and my body. I feel great and am starting to really change my appearance.

Patience:

Reaching the goals that I set for myself is frustrating at times and can be like a double-edged sword. I have always been an athlete and have always had muscle. I am at a point where the weights that I am lifting don’t matter and its more about my appearance, my abs, cutz in my arms and shoulders, good calves. These are the things fitness modeling agents want to see. They dont even care about the #’s (bodyfat, weight…) They want u a certain way and THATS THAT. I have patience and seeing my results and change in body has me me HUNGRY.. I am so confident I will reach my goal of 180-182lbs and 5%bf. I was hoping to hit this mark by my 25th birthday (March 22nd). I have plenty of time to lose the weight/fat slowly and do it right. I want to be a freak! SHREDDED FROM HEAD TO TOE.

If you want serious nutrition advice and help with your supplement rotation and workout regime HIT HIM UP.. Seriously I already spoke of Him and how in this short amount of time he has helped me. I wouldn’t lie to you. Dave has taken the time to creat the Elite 12 b/c there  are SADLY, guys out there taking people’s money and not giving them what they are paying for. Dave is a natural bodybuilder, been in magz, won contests/shows, etc… Look at his space- Proof is in the Pudding people. Anyways thats my advice to you guys.

MY TURN..

I’m going to be in the TYRA BANKS show this Wednesday. I applied for it b/c its about unusual eating habits. I, like the rest of bodyspace don’t think the way we live is weird or unusual but "normal" people do. I mean the 6-8 meals a day every 2-3 hrs, the weighing and measuring of food, the supplementing, the healthy fats, etc..

I went on the show and TYRA interviewed me for a short period of time, I got one of my pics up and even got a response from TYRA herself. I am trying to make it any way possible and know that I will. Any kind of exposure is good, I’ll take what I can get.

For anyone reading this and ur in a rut or don’t think you can do it… U CAN! You are the only person that can hold U back. If you don’t believe me type in my name (John Rahn) in the article section. My transfromation is in there. CHECK IT OUT! I have been rejected more than a 4′11" guy going up against SHAQ but guess what I’m still PUSHING (P.U.S.H. Pray Until Something Happens)

U can make it, Don’t give up. Let the man in the mirror know the plan and stick wit it.

pz out guys

Dave, I’ll catch up with you for anynew tips/changes I should be making. FEELING GOOD!

Hey there,

 I’m writing this in regards to the newest bodygroup on bodybuliding.com. The ELITE 12. With the help of brett123 (Dave Vignasse) I am going to reach my goals and transform my body through proper nutrition,weight training, and cardio. I just spoke to Dave and he opened my eyes to the world of supplements (the truths), lifting, and most importantly nutrition. His meal plan (based on my goals and physical stats) is on point and I am adhering to it. I was motivated by Dave and his knowledge of the subjects we spoke about; supplements, weight training, cardio, and nutrition. He is very educated and knows what success is all about. LOOK AT HIM,he is fitness.

I wrote this b/c I want to first and foremost Thank Dave for his time, advice, help, knowledge, and kindness. He wants us to succeed, to be the best we can be, and to be HAPPY with the outcome.

Dave,

I’m in. Proud to be in the group. Gonna bust my ass to get what i want and deserve. Thanks BROTHER,,

P.U.S.H. (PRAY UNTIL SOMETHING HAPPENS)

So I think a lot, as most of us do. I think about life and the things I want to accomplish most. I have set goals that sometimes seem impossible. I want to reach a level that not many can achieve. I want to be healthy, happy, in love, relaxed, and succesful, all at the same time. I am 24 years old and know that the things I stress about seem too be a little far fetched for a guy like me to think about but I guess you can say I’ve learned from good teachers along the way and know that hard work is the only way to accomplish anything. My goal to become a fitness model is still in the air but my goal to be in the best shape of my life is becoming more of PRIORITY… I have been rejected from agents and came back to them a changed person. I look in the mirror and see a different face everyday. Somedays its accomplished and proud, others is frustrated and disappointed. I know patience is the key. The rejection I can live with, its the unsatisfaction I feel, the inadequecy. I don’t see what others see in. I look in the mirror and think change…. I can say one thing, "MY HEAD IS NEVER DOWN." I am not going to be defeated by anyone, any piece of glass, any set of eyes.. I AM WHAT I AM!

My goals have become more personal and accomplishing them is what I owe myself.

The good Lord gave us mountains so we can learn how to climb. ALways see the top and reach for it everyday, when you get there say, THANK YOU! Than show em what you got…

P.U.S.H.

I’LL MAKE IT
