well just like the last time i did IF (only for one week) i actually GAINED a pound this week LOL. 211lbs.. this morning. i really dont give a damn though. pretty OK with where i currently sit bf% wise. yeh i could be leaner and would like to be and am working on it but im not killing myself (obviously).
i did have a cheat meal (fajitas/chips and salsa, etc..) at the mexican restaurant a fee days ago and then afterward kinda veered away from my standard food choices for the day.. (ate some cottage cheese and blueberries)..
not gonna let the pound trouble me as it doesnt mean anything really. keeping going. in reality 2000cals per day is probably closer to 2200-2400 with the little bit of chocolate here and extra almond butter ther and my coffee creamer has 60 cals and crap like that. only doing about 2.5hrs cardio each week right now. kinda just getting thru christmas and then may turn it up a notch for the last 6 weeks.
gotta get the EGCG and chromium and implement Austins fat loss stack.
heres a PIC I TOOK A FEW days ago:

well got abs/hiit done. did 18sets intervals.
14 sets at 30/60 and the last 4 sets at 30/30..
think im gonna incorporate more 30/30 sets as they are intense and i am finally able to recover in 30 secs but i can tell u after the 4th one i dont think i couldve done another..

You running on treadmill for your HIIT? How fast?
I've been doing the stairmill 60 level 5/60 level 15 for 10 sets (20min). It's torture.

Elliptical, reason being my right knee has needed surgery since 2005. I stopped running on it for the most part a year or 2 ago. In any event it is very effective.
Level 8 (rest tension) level 13-14 (high intensity tension)
30/60 at whatever pace i can muster during rest (approx. 60 rpm) then Level 13/14 (200-250rpm).. Today for last 4 sets did 30/30 and that was brutal. Im running IF too so this is all done fasted usually at noon (fasting hour 16-17)
Good to see u stop by BTW there sarge

today: legs..
i suggested my wife invite her grandma down for christmas and she flew up there and got her over the weekend, they just got back last night so we had a little dinner thing. i of course deviated from my diet with a spaghetti carb meal and crescent rolls (of which i could live off) and pineapple dump cake.
back on track today

By slack I mean by not being so hard on yourself and finding more balance between life and looks.

405. For some reason I always thought u worked construction. Now I think you could be an underwear model. Pls take this as a complement. You looking very cut! I do remember your starting photos from years back! Nice work.

I disagree I still think 405 looks like a construction worker (however construction workers look lol).

had a bit of a cheat meal yesterday, nothing too bad a little mac and cheese and some ham. couple pecan pie tarts. cardio i made some progress too though.
was an ab/HIIT day.
20 total sets
sets 1-6: 30/60 level 13
sets 7-14: 30/60 level 14
sets 15-20 30/30 level 13
gotta say the 30/30 sets is where its at and where im headed. very tuff but i am getting better. with HIIT ive noticed with myself specifically the area where i notice the most profound improvement is my body's ability to expel the CO2 (or whatever else builds up in the blood). it has been awhile since i was gasping for oxygen, but where i feel the most discomfort is in the expulsion process.
i will say i have gotten way way more efficient at it.
today: back

i tell you, cutting is such a mental challenge! it seems sometimes i am not making any progress and im frustrated and all that crap and then BOOM!! i wake up and look way better in the mirror than i remembered looking the day before. SMH.. funny how that works.
feeling pretty good about how i look right now. get thru this week (christmas) and then have 6 more weeks until i go on vacation. i could leave right now and look fine though. the funny thing is i weigh 210-215lbs which is the same weight i started at 6 months ago. i suppose i have done a small re-comp i dunno. had a pretty crappy training session in the gym today too but i dont even give a dang!

im am cycling carbs Al. pretty much just eating them PWO (primarily) on training days plus running Intermittent FASTING diet 16/8. hitting 2000cals per day roughly, sometimes going as high as 2400. as long as i stay within that range and do all my training i continue to drop fat. going for the skinny ass beach bum look.. ive already got the flip flops and the tan so im half way there!
thx a lot IGI. thx for dropping by as well. id also like to note ive been taking note of ur posts, even though i dont comment a lot , and i like what u have to say and where ur headed. ur looking solid too man!
