I'm going to keep leaning down for a few more weeks. I hit a new low of 184 today, and it's the leanest and biggest I've ever looked at 184. Even better than when I was prepping, so progress has been...

Awesome journal here Jason. Will be following for sure.

Things have been going well guys. Had to relocate back to Boston, MA but other than that life is pretty stable. I'm currently 193, decided to cut down a bit from a high of 211. I just didn't like...

I'm one of Jason's clients, so I feel like putting in my thoughts here, but anyway, I think it really has to do with 1) TIME and 2) TOTAL CARDIO AMOUNT.

Most people do not have the time to do 3...

Yep, blows those canned online systems out of the water IMO. Excel modeling/formula skills ftw.

Thought I'd update this thing since it has been a while.

Sitting at 204-206 LBS AM weight these days, just sorta cruising along for now. Macros are still the same, but with added intra...

Well, this will be more of a fun update. I finally hit 190 LBS... 190.6 LBS to be exact and I've held it for 2 days now. Hopefully I've "secured" this new weight and I can keep climbing....

I got another bump in macros, albeit a smaller one this time so right now I'm up to 350P/530C/130F. Weight has been holding steady around 188-189. I'm not trying to push the weight much...

5/22/2012

Got another bump in macros: 350P/530C/110F.

Weight is hovering around 185-186 LBS in the mornings.

Jason dropped my cardio down to 40 min. AM LISS only. Macros are still 330P/470C/100F with 1-2 cheats per week (1 clean, 1 dirty).

Weight is hovering around 181-183 LBS. I was 182.8...

Already had it twice. :)

Here's a quick pic update.

Had a killer back and traps workout last night. Highlight of the workout was deadlifting 405 x 10 with ease. I had 5-6 more reps in me...lol.

I got another macro bump because my...

Decided to have a "shit show" cheat last night which consisted of:

- 4 MET-RX Big 100 Super Cookie Crunch protein bars
- 1 box of Annie's Chocolate Bunnies
- 4 Resse's PB Cups
- 2 pints of...

I weighed 180.2 LBS today. Down a bit so Jason gave me a macro bump so now I'm up to 310P/420C/80F on Training Days and 310/370/80 on my Non-Training Days.

Yesterday I began a new...

Hmm, interesting. I've never heard this before. I'll give it a try next time.

Just wanted to post some full body shots wearing trunks to assess my condition again, this time 2 weeks post show. The rebound is going very well so far, here I am at 181.8 LBS...

This is self-control at it's finest brother! I will admit that I struggled a bit the first week, I had 24 hours of fun post show and then I had sushi and italian later on in the week. There was also...

Yeah must have whacked it on the night stand in my sleep or something. Can't think of anything else I did to hurt it??? LOL.

God damn it, I just noticed my picture posted above is sideways.

I think I put too much cinnamon in it. It was overwhelming and sort of ruined it... :(

The texture and consistency was perfect though. I may add a bit more milk next time and/or use a lower temp...

Thanks man! Next week I'm going to tighten things up for sure. This first week post-show has been spotty at best. Last Sunday (the day right after the show) was a complete shit fest. Tuesday I was on...

I fell off the wagon last night and gave into my girlfriend's baking skills. She made 18 little banana nut muffins and I ate 6 of those fuckers! They were fairly healthy but regardless,...

You aren't the first person who has said that. It's funny, whenever I show people these "before" pictures I always expect people to be like, "oh my god you looked so terrible!" but nobody has ever...

Sure. Here's me back in 2008 when Jason and I first started talking - I was skinny fat and I had an eating disorder. It's been a long road.

I agree. I will work on it and become one.

Oh I know, just gotta be patient and work with my metabolism/body right now. It's like feeding a fire...you don't want to overload it with a bunch of huge logs, but rather stroke it with smaller...

- 181 LBS AM Weight ...looks like the water is almost all off. I weighed in the high 170's a week out, so 181 is pretty close. I have a feeling that even with the macro bump I'll be...

Jason bumped carbs up by 40g today. Here are my new macros: 275P/300C/40F.

- 183 LBS AM weight

I did 60 minutes of AM LI cardio today and trained chest/triceps at night. Diet was on point.

For my workout, I did:

Incline Bench: 5 sets of 5
Flat DB...

Thanks man. Legs are a bit of a genetic gift for me but I also train them very hard, and I enjoy training legs.

A typical leg workout for me lasts about 2 hours and I always do it on the weekend...

This past weekend I qualified for national level shows by winning the Middleweight Novice and Middleweight Open classes at the 2012 NPC Kentucky Derby show. The whole experience was amazing and I'm...

I'll be following this one for sure. I'm thinking of starting an offseason log myself, since I plan on doing Jr. Nationals next year.

I'm 5'8. I made night time weigh ins @ 172.4 LBS.

Thanks Bob.

Legs are good, but my hamstrings need more pop and drop. Those will be prioritized this offseason in terms of training frequency and exercise selection.

I know my arms need more...

I think that weight may be a bit too heavy for you Bob. Depth is ok, I'm not a damn Nazi about the whole ass-to-grass thing but you look out of balance doing that set. You should try to keep your...
