    God bless you Oker - I wish I had it in me to do cardio twice a day for an hour each session. I can barely tolerate 3x a week for 30 mins. I know, I need to man up. Maybe i'd be able to get that elusive 10% BF if I dedicated myself!

    Sorry this is a bit OT but gbrice, I was wondering if you had thought about posting up a workout log for your attempt to cut down to 10%. It's obvious that you really want to get there, and I think it would only help you to post up your progress on a week to week basis, not only for your own records, but also to get feedback from people on the board for progress etc. I'm sure with the support of the other guys on here, along with the element of personal accountability that comes with any top of workout log, you will reach your goals. Anyways thats all I wanted to say, not trying to push you into anything, just thought of it and that it might be helpful.

    No problem bro, you're right in that I probably should start a progress log thread. I do have my diet and workout routine posted, but not all in one place as a log that I can really track and update.

    I'm starting a clen+keto cycle next week, so i'm really considering Monday 'day 1'. My biggest problem right now is cheating; I was good for such a long time, then went on vacation to Mexico - I haven't been able to pull it all back together since!

    LOL! I was the same bro. Actually I still hate cardio, so I went out and bought myself an expensive treadmill for home (much like the ones at the gym) and it makes it a hell of a lot easier not to mention convenient.


    In addition, I seem to be more motivated doing cardio at home as apposed to the treadmill at the gym. I set it up in front of the TV each morn and evening, watch the news or some comedy, and the time flies bro! Now I'm so used to it I don't even think about it anymore.

    I hear you man, I actually did the same thing and bought a really good treadmill. Didn't use it for a long time (regularly), when I finally started to use it as part of a routine, the fvcker broke and is out of warranty!!! Figures!!!

    But it's no excuse; I know I need to suck it up and just get er' done.

    That sucks bro any idea what it would cost to fix? As for me I can‘t go without cardio now...it not only makes me feel better but I just love to see the fat drop off - doing cardio twice a day for an hour you actually notice the difference! I mean visually I notice the difference daily.

    But you look pretty good bro is that you in the avatar? What BF % are you now? In a few weeks when I reach my goal (single digit) I will post up some pics. Then I'm off on holiday to the beach in southern Thailand - woo hooo! Gotta reach my goal of single digit before the 26th - the ocean and the bikini clad, cute Thai girls are my motivation!

    I don't know how much it'll cost, but I definitely need to stop procrastinating and look into it ASAP. You telling me about seeing results daily is inspiring!!

    Thanks bro, yes that's me in my avy, pic is from about a month ago. I'm actually about 15% and just look a bit leaner because of the pose. My goal continues to be 10% - so far it has eluded me, despite my best efforts. But that tells me my best efforts haven't been good enough. Once I hit 10%, I'll reconsider at that point whether I want to REALLY go for it (single digit like yourself) or start trying to add some mass which I am seriously lacking.

    I really want the mass also bro...and that is my ultimate objective. But for now I'm concentrating on cutting down to that single digit then the bulk begins :-) Want more definition in my abs before that.

    are you doing a cutting cycle now? What gear are you using to cut? I find sust 250 and winny tabs are a great combination for cutting.

    PS Keep at it bro you will reach that single digit - find some motivation (example cute Thai girls) it works for me lol

    Same here, once I get down to an appreciable bodyfat, I can FINALLY start concentrating on adding some good muscle!

    I'm not currently on any AAS cycle - I just finished PCT from a test e cycle actually, and my wife and I are trying to have a baby (I have terrible timing!) so i'm steering clear of AAS for now.

    I am starting a clen+keto cycle however. I opted to exclude T3 from the equation since I don't have enough LBM to afford losing even a little bit, and without being on a cycle plus a caloric deficit, that would almost definitely happen.

    Yea, I need to find something better then music for cardio, it's not cutting it anymore!
