Congrats. You have done it and you will continue to get it done.

**--->>405<<---** · 01-19-2012, 07:16 PM

U know upon further reflection i just started my AI friday of last week... So some of the weight ive been carrying may have been due to the elevated E2 i had/have and am getting down.. I know with it comes water retention...

**tbody66** · 01-19-2012, 07:53 PM

**--->>405<<---** · 01-21-2012, 12:13 PM

thx pap..still a ways to go.. this dang belly fat takes forever! LOL

**Papiriqui** · 01-21-2012, 02:07 PM

Whatever it takes buddy!! Thats the reason we made the choice to live this lifestyle!! You'll get there!!

**tbody66** · 01-21-2012, 02:13 PM

pics look good, progress is great. I can't really tell through the forest but looks like chest needs filled out and the lats are lagging at least from the front. Is it possible to get some back pics? Does the shoulder present you with limitations on range of motion when we switch to a barbell routine?

LMAO! funny i had a conversation with my wife last nite about the issue of my bodyhair and this website.. LOL

i think yall want me to shave it more than she does..

her take is: " whats the big deal? Ur a guy!"

LOL

**tbody66** · 01-21-2012, 09:53 PM

I like the base of the back, but lots of room for improvement there. What about the question about the shoulder and limitations for the new routine?

**--->>405<<---** · 01-22-2012, 06:59 AM

BB bench and incline bench may give me some probs.. ill have to try it out and see.. with bb bench the pain comes at the bottom of the movement.. but its been a while since ive done any bb bench(like 6 months) so it may be better.. if im going to be going heavy or heavier i may have to stick with DBs...

definitely need chest fill out and lat work.. until recently lats have been a very weak point with me.. most of my adult life ive been over 200lbs(up to 235) and i could never do chins.. i have surpassed that limitation... now i can do 4 sets x 12 chins with no weight.. if i am gonna be doing weighted chins ill need a belt..

forget dips..theyre out of the question..

id like to think i can maybe do some semi heavy squats again(315lbs maybe 365) without too much shoulder trouble.. i think my leg size is ok though just need more definition..i can measure them tonite if u like.. i suppose i could measure everywhere if u think itd help u get a better idea of where im at?

**--->>405<<---** · 01-22-2012, 07:29 AM

oh yeh 1 other thing.. no cardio again today(thats 3 days in a row) cuz i got to enjoy heart palpitations last nite from about 11pm-1230am..

BYEBYE ARMOUR THYROID

**SlimmerMe** · 01-22-2012, 09:02 AM

^^ I read this in your other thread. I bet you were shocked. IMO you more than likely don't need it anyway.

**--->>405<<---** · 01-22-2012, 09:14 AM

kinda shocked slim but kinda not.. this was the exact reason i debated using it in the first place.. im just glad it wasnt any worse than it was.. and it solved my dilemma early on

that stuff is outta here!

**Back In Black** · 01-23-2012, 09:11 AM

Excellent work mate, you are a different man. I really hope everybody has noticed.

It's worth the effort, right!?!?

**--->>405<<---** · 01-23-2012, 10:17 AM

Thx SteM yeh def worth the effort.. People have def noticed

so now im not fat anymore im ready to get truly "lean".. Did bf last nite and it came bak at 10.22% now i know thats wrong.. It dropped 1% since last week.. My majorntrouble spots still are the pecs and abs.. Fat just likes hanging around there and im ready for it to be gone...

The only 2 caliper sites still in double digits r subscapular(11mm) and abdominal(13mm).. Everything else is single digit..

If i start doing 2-a-day cardio how would u suggest i do it? Am liss and pm hiit??

TBody ill be going back to my previous workout routine this week with less volume and kind of lightweight but still a workout to give my body a kind of rest.. Hoping next week to start new workout..

Just finished am cardio.. Did 25mins LISS 20mins HIIT.. In that order.. Plannd on doing all LISS but feeln kinda fat today so decided to bump it up to HIIT halfway thru..

Sounds like a good plan! Also a good idea to still eat appropriately, my "week off of over-eating" was very poor advice. Please forgive me for that.

If i start doing 2-a-day cardio how would u suggest i do it? Am liss and pm hiit?? Depends how your day pans out. But too much real HIIT will see burn out so really you need to listen to your body and plan the second session around your 'normal' workouts.

TBody ill be going back to my previous workout routine this week with less volume and kind of lightweight but still a workout to give my body a kind of rest.. Hoping next week to start new workout..

Just finished am cardio.. Did 25mins LISS 20mins HIIT.. In that order.Ideally, I would do this the other way around if you are going to do it. Plannd on doing all LISS but feeln kinda fat today so decided to bump it up to HIIT halfway thru..

Keep on it mate, there is constant progression here. I know it gets harder to lose just a couple of lbs now but each 2lbs you now lose will have far more impact on the way you look than 2lbs 10 weeks ago!
