Hey guys, my name is Ryan and I'm 19 years old. I worked out vigorously in high school going from 130 my freshman year to 185 my senior year. I only used AMPlified Creatine from GNC and Whey Protein, and use the workout plan our football coach had. By my senior year I made it into the 1000 pound club(310 bench, 525 squat, 400 deadlift) at my school which was a big accomplishment for me, and I was one of the cutest guys in my school. Well the last year I haven't touched a weight and I have lost most of my muscle and gained it back in fat. I now weigh 200 and I am 5'8.
My goal is to lose my body fat that I have built up and get cut again. I found this forum searching on the web for different products but I really don't know anything about them. So I want to get involved with this board and learn as much as I can to reach my goal. Once I get cut again I plan on building muscle and staying cut.

Thanks guys, and thanks for the info Vetteman. I've got a question for you already, when I go to My Profile at the top it says I do not have permission to access this page. Is there something I need to do?

I think you will need either 25 or 50 posts before that feature will work for you. If memory serves correct it's 25 on the profile and 50 on the private messaging feature. Either way, it will all work if you start participating ... Contact us in the One-on-One with Staff forum if you encounter these problems after posting past 50.

Welcome, it won't take long to get that post count up, just ask lots of questions!!

**SUP3RST4R** · 04-29-2012, 10:46 PM

Okay, thanks and yeah I'm sure it won't take long. Im guessing the first step I need to take to reach my goal is my diet so I guess I'm heading over to the nutrition section!
