Ok, first a lil' background.
I work at Worlds Gym and we have a pretty kool bunch of guys that work there with us. Well we are always talking smack to a certain person about his weight...Being that he works in a gym and is sorta "not lean"...So I checked my bodyfat the other day, and it was at the max i wanted for a winter bulking period. Therefore I thought to myself...What better way to help motivate myself to get back down to 7% than to make a bet with my friend who has never seen 10 in his life.
This would motivate him to get in shape (help him get more respect, and provide my motivation for trying to beat him).
I checked my bodyfat and the results were
216lbs
16% even..(*odd to have it exactly*)
the guy i am going against was
230
20% (not even but close enough)
now the bet is i'm going to spot him 3%bf... So basically if he gets down to 10...i've gotta be at 6.9 to beat him.
The bet is my 100 dollars against his 50. Now i do not mind losing the 100 if he gets in shape and truely beats me...I'm doing it for the motivation and drive to push myself harder because I dont wanna lose my pride. Afterall I made the bet.
Oh, the bet is also for 16 weeks...So it ends April 03, 2003. This is a friendly bet so nothing serious or negative about it. We are always making stupid bets at the gym and my boss bet I couldnt get to 7 and I figured my competitor couldnt get to 10. So we shall see...The owner is training my friend and I'm training with a long time friend so it should be interesting.
Diet is going to be the key for me...as April 03 I wanna come in dry as hell. I'm going to treat this as a show simply to get in the mind set. Only difference being I need to be as lean as possible. I think it is quite possible for me to get down below 7% as last time when i started cutting and not running a cycle of anything, i got down to 9 in 12 weeks.
I'm going to be needing some serious help with diet, and the one I plan on running for the last 8 weeks is a ketosis diet which will work, but I'm curious to know what's out there that's better or just as effective for the first half.
All and I do mean ALL help is welcomed and any cycle advice is greatly appreciated.
I've got enough winny for 50mg EOD and cant really afford more currently, however by the time i'm ready to use the winny, I might be able to. I think i just recently got F'd on an order so I basically have a clean slate to order anything. Any recommendations.
I was thinking Prop and EQ. Once again, I wanna treat this as a show time (april 3). My motivation is not necessarily to beat my friend (*although always a plus*) but to get as lean as I've ever been. I wanna see 5% and the veins in the abdominal region.
MikeXXL, Dr. D, PTYJason, ANYONE who cares to chime in that has knowledge...I'm all ears.
If I've left anything out about my history that you dont know, just ask or yell at me that I forgot to say something. Most people here know me or have at least seen me post once or twice...lol But any help is appreciated once again.
Current idea....
Weeks 1-16 total time
Week 1-4 Cardio 30mins 5-6 times a day morning
Diet, low carbs...exact diet is being thought about in my head, and I will need help with that part...my biggest fear is dropping to much weight and bf to quickly and not being able to be ready on the 16th...
the diet i was thinking of running the last 12 weeks is
After Cardio: Isopure protien drink: 40g Protien, 0, 0
Morning: 6egg whites 2 yolks: Not sure on the breakdown
Snack: Whole Wheat waffle 2 4g Protien, 35-40g Carb, 0
Lunch: 4 Chicken breasts and some steamed cabbage, 1/2 sweet pot. Not sure of breakdown
Snack: (need an idea besides tuna....)
While working out: Protien drink of some kind
Post work out: Protien of some kind
Dinner: Orange Roughy Fish, Steamed broch.
Snack: If hungry a few chicken breasts or some egg whites.
cardio 45mins 5 times a week 30 mins 1-2 times as needed
Ok, there is the starting idea...lets see if I get any replies...
