Great stuff man, you can actually see small changes already, you look like you are really going about it the right way, you are already so lean that you can take it slow and really dial in when you need to, I think its gonna end up really great by the end.
You also seem a little darker in the new pics (possibly lighting) but it makes a difference and shows some deeper cuts especially in the ab area. Great stuff bro. Cant wait to see the next 9 weeks.

Very impressive bud.

Also, crazy hair.

I'll be checking in, good luck.

**Steele** · 05-02-2006, 01:22 PM

keep the journal up, i am a competitor as well and think its great to compare diet strategies and progress. -STEELE

Looking great buddy!!! Now down to business........

You're trying to drop 7% in roughly 12 weeks. That's about 1% every week and a half, gets difficult trying to not lose and LBM dropping bf% that quickly. I like what Mike lined up as far as diet. What is your total macro intake and how much of it is from fat?

How's the cardio looking? Intensity, duration and time of day? Split or all at once?

Hpw much water have you lost in the past with the aid of your diuretic? You stated that you intend to lose about 10lbs. I figured way more then that so I"m curious as to what you've lost in the past.

Looking very thick and I"m with Bino, definitely already some improvements just in a week.

Curious to what your cycle looks like. Any LR3?

**chest6** · 05-02-2006, 05:44 PM

Man I dont know how you eat all that and stay lean..lucky

Good journal so far..keep up the hard work. I'll be keepin an eye on it.

Jay Waddup! Let me try to answer most of your questions. I didnt get to do a hydrostatic weigh-in so 10% was a guesstimation. most people guess less than 10%, could be less. however I know its almost impossible to loose weight without loosing a single LBM. however my goal is to walk that thin line of the very least, I know I cannot do it because I do not get that serious about my diet. I do not use a microscope and measure everything. I try to get in about 300 to 350 protein per day, which is most important to me then do around 225mg carbs til 8 weeks out before dropping to 150mg. fat I dont count I just take 1 teaspoon flaxseed oil with protein only meal. as fat as cardio goes... last show I did not touch cardio til 3 weeks out and I'll post a picture what I looked like on game day. this time I'll probably start 6 weeks out with lite cardio. because I am trying to loose theweight slower. its a task for me to cycle carbs I'm lazy bro. but I know Mike know exactly what he's talking about.
Diuretic aids about 10lbs of water in the past.

A teaspoon or Tablespoon? Sounds like its just once a day. Is it once a day or with every protein meal?

This sounds much better, at least 6 weeks out.
