3/5 last week

Week 7 - 4/4

I'm in pursuit of a little more size and strength right now and am doing a very light bulk in an attempt to add more muscle. It is psychologically hard though after spending so many years working on losing weight. I think I'll let myself creep up to 185lbs. and then go on a cut.

Drastic · August 11, 2015, 03:13:31 PM

I think we missed a week?

Last week, 1/5. No gym, 1 vball. Been a tough year for consistency for me.

Trying for 5/5 this week, hit gym yesterday and planning vball tonight.

>I think we missed a week?

Damn, I am a slacker. Did 4/4 the week before.

Drastic · August 12, 2015, 11:50:20 AM

Well I didn't post either, but that may be related to only having 2/5.

littleman · August 18, 2015, 04:10:47 PM

week 9 - 4/4

I'll be on a reduced load this week because I'll be traveling, so I'll probably only do 2/4.

Rumbas · August 19, 2015, 08:15:33 AM

Week 9 - 2/4

Been slacking - due to a lot of work. Going to walk a lot the next 4 days as I'm watching the European Tour in Denmark in Himmerland. Following a couple of groups every day should log 10-15 km per day:

Well, gang ... smile with me.

After many small ups and downs in recent weeks, the scales this morning finally reached the milestone of 80 pounds gone.

It's not time for "after" pictures yet but here's a "before", taken at a PubCon in Austin:

littleman · August 26, 2015, 06:50:33 AM

Buckworks, Congratulations! I've learned that there is no true "after" when it comes to this sort of thing it is more of a snapshot of your body in a state of transition if you will, but 80 pounds off is really a great accomplishment and you should be very proud.

As predicted I only did 2/4 of my workouts this week, I also had some food indulgence over the weekend and will have to be extra strict to make up for it this week.

Who is up for another round?

rcjordan · September 11, 2015, 04:02:15 PM

Congrats, BW!

As mentioned elsewhere, low-carb & RC's Replicator work well for me. At Puncon 1, I weighed 248. This morning, 168.

littleman · September 11, 2015, 04:03:46 PM

Hey, congrats RC! Pics? We're a slimming bunch here.

Drastic · September 11, 2015, 09:16:57 PM

Dam Sun rc....will I recognize you?

Alright finally getting my business caught up...I am ready to start back next week.

Anybody want to join? I'm in for 4 gym, 5+ total per week.

littleman · September 11, 2015, 09:49:41 PM

I'm in for four a week, like usual.

I am not sure if everybody is board with my fitness journey at this point, but I am working on a very shallow bulk right now. I'm allowing my weight to climb upward in an attempt to add more muscle. It is psychologically difficult to do it after dropping 100 pounds. I'll level off at about 185, then start a gradual cut and hopefully hang on to some of the gains. I am at 182 as of this morning.

I'm eating sensibly, still the same basic, low carb (just above keto) diet, but the volume is up a little. My intensity is up at the gym.

@RC -- come on, show us a pic!
