    Exclamation Damian's Cycle

    i got this 4 day cycle from Jay Cutler. just modified it alittle for a more intense work out. i work out 4 days and then rest 2 days. i do 5miles of cardio after each work out. 2 - 3 miles of cardio on the rest days. i'm currently eating 3,511 calorie diet with:

    264grams of Protein
    352grams of Carbs
    118grams of Fats

    i'm thinking about dropping down to a 2,808 calorie diet and maybe loose 10lbs. i'm currently:

    6'2
    234lbs
    17" biceps
    50" chest
    34" waist
    pressing 350lbs

    my goal is too get 19 or 20" biceps and press about 400lbs and turn my 4 pac into a 6 pac. do you think i can accomplish this goal using this cycle w/ my 5 mile cardio? or am i doing 2 much cardio?

    i used the fitness calculators on this site and also got some tips from our local nutrition center. i'm a very active person and my workout has me training with weights for about 2hrs and then i do 5miles of cardio so i stay pretty active.

    i get about 3400 - 3500 calories after i eat my 5 meals a day. but i'm thinking about dropping down to 2800 calories and loose 4 - 5lbs. maybe 10lbs.

    "a cycle" consists of the application of a stack of steroids over a period of time... its not some kind of 4 day diet. either way, that looks good, good luck!
