at this rate i think i am going to shoot for 220lbs.. So far my lifts have not really gone down much at all either.. which impresses me as i was expecting some kind of strength loss.. i lost a lot on my squats, but i hadn't done them in 6-8 weeks due to me injuring my knee a while back.. I was able to do the same weight now as back prior to injury on exercises like leg extensions and curls.. so not to sure whjat to think about that.. either way.. i am running this till the end of this month and then starting a tren a/ test p blast lean bulk cycle..

**zaggahamma** · 03-31-2011, 03:14 PM

wow close to original goal in HALF the time...cant wait for the 229lb pics and/or the 220 pics

I have noticed that i can now see my serratus anterior (side abs next to ribs) there is not definition of individual abs, but there is a noticeable difference of where they are compared to the rest of my waist.. I think the next ten pounds will be more visible then the first ten pounds.. I am holding the pics until i am done. looking at my older pics i also noticed i can really use a tan.. i miss the days of being able to get this by just mowing my lawn with no t-shirt back in cali.. here in ireland you slowly turn into Casper.. joining a new gym though that has a tanning bed in the locker room so i will start using that.. hey. it's almost summer/go to Thailand time.

been following this thread. great job bro. i'm amazed that you're able to consume that much food and cut. i know youre TDEE is high, just can't believe you had cheeseburgers, guiness, etc., and still hit your goal ahead of time. you MUST be an animal in the gym!!!!!! great work. post pics!

Q; are you taking any fat burners or caff?

taking 200mcg of clen first two weeks, and then two weeks off and then started again on tuesday at 200mcg with 1mg of keto which i intend to run through the end of this month..

in regards to the cheese burgers and guiness..I love food, and i love beer.. i would rather be fat and happy then skinny and miserable, you can lose weight eating nothing but McDonalds and drinking nothing but diet coke all day.. it is not recommended of course, but you can do it if you just limit your calories..

The main thing that i have done is drop the 2 liters of skim milk i usually drink every day (640cal / 96g carbs / 118g protein).. and more importantly i stop eating when i am no longer hungry, instead of continuing to eat until i am full

gotcha. yeah, i always wondered (excuse my ignorance) that if i take my current macros and eliminate say 500 calories and 20g of fat, etc. from my "healthy" foods, and supplement a comparable stat with a cheeseburger, or slice of pizza with fried chicken, that i'll be able to still put on muscle and cut. i guess as long as there is a calorie deficit, it will work.

lol nah bro, he said above my post that he was saving pics for the end - but since I was working with him earlier on, it'd be nice to see the progress thus far as tweaks/changes are almost always necessary as body composition changes.
