I'd say 28-30%? Somewhere in that ballpark...
awesome thanks a lot!
Man, if im 28-30% now..When I Weighed 256 I must have been like 40%...really puts things into perspective.
Thanks!
yep upper 20s........
25+%
Not too bad considering your weight, IMO.
Thanks a lot man! I appreciate the motivation.Quote:

Body composition is so different between people.
I am just a little bit higher in weight and don't look nowhere near as thick as you do 5 pounds lighter.
Oh well, we just do the best with what we got.
OP, you'll be happy with the results when you shed some of the fat. At least you have some decent muscle base that some people with high Bf lack.
Man, you guys are both jacked though. You look awesome.
Thanks Samson, I've upped the amount of gym time I'm doing to make sure to maintain as much of my muscle while shredding that I can. I'm aiming for 1.5-2lbs/week and hoping around 195 I'll look pretty decent. Depending on that I'll start a cycle.
Thanks again guys.
Quick question? At what bf% would it be acceptable for me to start a test/var cycle?
Generally 15% bf or lower seems to be the guide line most will suggest.
Ok, I thought maybe with Var 20% would be adequate as it helps burn fat.
Thanks!
I agree with this, to a point. I went by this the first cycle out. I dropped to 15% and jumped on, dropped again and jumped on again.Quote:

I dunno, I still don't want to try that one out on myself. The cholesterol is a fact, proved that to myself with blood work.
Straight, up in your case I would just drop some weight then juice. It's just better, you can lose up to 3 pounds a week on a EC stack. Shit, I did and retained all of my LBM.
I know juice sounds great, but for weight loss it's not a necessity at all.
Ok. Thanks guys. I was gonna set my goal at 20 bf%, but ill go further and make it 15%... Ill hopefully reach my goal by march or april.
Thanks again.
April is doable, almost 3 months. If I can lose 50 pounds in 2 months, I think anyone healthy can do it.
Samson, you mentioned EC stacking? I was curious do you think I'd get better results from EC stacking or sticking with cycling Clen? It's hard to tell the results I'm getting from clen, as I'm exercising, and counting my calories every day.Quote:

Seems to work real good for me. Clen never sounded appealing, at least I feel great on the EC stack.
I don't seem to be getting many sides..other than a bit of shaking here and there as well as my heart rate seems to go higher.... A buddy of mine who is taking it get's bad headaches, and shakes like crazy! He just doesn't seem to have the increased heart rate.
50 pounds in 2 months? wow! that almost doesn't seem possible.Quote:

Wow, that's awesome.Quote:

That's almost a pound a day, not saying you didn't do it...but that doesn't seem realistically possible unless you were morbidly obeseQuote:

Not really, I was holding a shit ton of water. We shed water weight very quickly. Out of the 50 pounds I lost at least 15-20 was just water weight.Quote:

Figured I'd try and keep a running log on here. From the second picture to the last I can't see TOOO much of a difference. Next picture will be at 195
