I posted this in another thread but thought i'd update:
i've just completed by bulk, i got up to 15 stone 10. I will be trying to rip up now, i wont be using any gear or substantial fat burning drugs though. At the moment, i've cut total carbs, i've given up any milk related products (apart from 1 scoop whey and 1 natural yoghurt per day) and peanut butter, and trying to eat a lot of vegetables where before I hardly eat any.

Since doing this, i've shed 10lbs (!!) in under 2 weeks. All the bloat and water that I was holding from all this whey and milk related products has just shed itself and I feel a lot more comfortable existing... (lol).

i'm attributing 2 or 3 of the lbs lost for just sheer reduction in food in my belly, maybe 3 or 4 of the lbs for water, and 2lbs of fat (ok, and perhaps a slight bit of muscle... boohoo.)

Sorry for lack of posts

Been doing lots of cardio and cut down on the weights quite a lot. Uni is on its final strait now and have been spending about 6-10 hours a day at least working solid to get stuff done.

New diet is very expensive ! but i love the food and its so tasty

cardio has been pretty successful, got quite a bit of knee pain last week though which meant i've switched to cross trainer for a while. Will be trying to get onto the runner asap though.

Been REALLY tired, i suppose its a collection of:

(a) cutting down total food
(b) coming off the USPLabs stack
(c) more cardio exercise
(d) more brain work (university work...)

But life's good, i was so stressed and have been for months and now I feel that taking a step back from certain aspects of the bodybuilding lifestyle was the best thing I could have done, and am much more optimistic now.

Oh, i tried to deadlift 210kg and failed yesterday... i spose its stupid trying that given i'm cutting anyway..

Training 'cardio, calves and forearms' today.. weird huh !

you`ll soon be pinch gripping a couple of 20`s and burning your hand wraps

Nick500 · 15-03-2006, 06:32 PM

mad training session today....

leg pressed 180kg for 25 reps which i was quite proud of (after about 5 sets leading up to 260kg for 4 reps), then did leg extension and calves.

then jumped on the bike and did 25km.
