    Work up to 1 hour cardio first thing in the morning on an empty stomach with some xenedrine, and then work up to 1 more hour of cardio after your workout. If you follow a good diet and do this cardio plan you will have no problems being lean by summer. By good diet only eat clean food with a mix of protein, carbs, and fats(supplement your fats from flaxseed, udos etc.)
    proteins can include
    tuna, salmon, chicken, fat free turkey, egg whites, lean steak
    carbs can include
    brown rice, broccoli, assparagus, yams, oatmeal

    hey guys,
    my roommate told me he read an article in men's heath or men's fitness magazine that says its bad to do cardio right when you wake up on an empty stomach cuz some chemical that is released in your body when you sleep hasn't been flushed outta your system yet...

    whats up with that?

    That would be cortisol...which is a negative thing when you are trying to build muscle, BUT, in this case it won't hurt a thing. when I dropped 100lbs, I did cardio in the mornings....it works!!

    Dont make the mistake of taking deca and test yet bro. You will eventually need to increase your muscle mass but for now concentrate on eating clean and working out really hard. I have not had the experience myself but contact swolecat and ask for his help. I have heard that he changes lives. Also contact nuke he is my boy,good bro who can point you in right direction.

    Hey bros good luck with your quest, im sure you will pull it off. As far as the diet and cardio goes , well I joined the body for life challenge and that worked really good for me. I lost 45 lbs in twelve weeks. I was able to train very intensely in the gym and maintain my muscle mass. IT is very straight forwards and simple, you should have a look. You can buy the body for life book at any book store. Good luck again, and stay strong.

    Welcome. Don't rush into anything. Focus on your cardio for a while and you'll do fine. Good luck!

    Work hard and follow what your body tells you! I have not had the pleasure of talking to SwoleCat personally but have heard great things about him and judging from his pics can tell that he knows a great deal! Listen to what Swole says and if you need to double check anything I am here to help. Just contact me via PM or Email address which is provided through member profile!

    Damn...obviously, it's very hard to make any real conclusions, but it looks like your traps have gotten a lot bigger.
