Madmonkeys quest to get bigger....

madmonkey292 · 28-04-2006, 03:54 PM

Affer achieving my last goal and feeling to over weight and struggling with the staires etc i decided to start an easy diet and 2 cardio sessions a week :cry:

So i have now lost nearly a stone and im running(more like jogging) for 30 minutes and then on the bike for 15 minutes so im happy with things so far

i have now decided to take my diet to the next step starting on tuesday next week and i have purchased a set of calipers to measure by BF% which should arrive next tuesday so i will post my new weight next week and include my BF%.

My aim is to have my abs out by july/august im drug free at the moment and intend on staying that way till july :cry:

I will post my diet which i start next week with my BF% and weight next week so that people can give me their opinions and direct me as they see fit as there seems to be alot of knowledgeable people about. 8)

Here's to the next quest........

My diets has now started :cry: i weighed myself this morning as soon as i got out of bed and my weight was 18.3 stone.

I have also measured my BF today and it was just under 16% if im doing it right. After doing some calculations i have worked out that if i want to get to around 10%BF then im going to have to drop 17LBS :cry: leaving me at around the 16.10st mark but hopefully with ABs and looking good. My aim is to do this with losing as little muscle as possible!

i will list my diet etc and i would be gratefull if people could look at it and offer any advice if and where i can change things to achieve my goals.

Week 2

i weighed myself this morning when i got up and i now weigh 18 stone dead which means i have lost 3lbs last week.
I did not measure my BF as im only going to do this once amonth so hopefully i will have a noticeable reduction when i do.

My weights have been slightly down this week and i have been feeling knackered most of the time and I have also noticed myself snapping at people a little bit quicker than usually but i have put this down to the low level of carbs that im eating.

Training this morning i managed to run 5km in 29minutes and 21 seconds which is a new PB for me followed by 5km bike ride in 10 minutes.

so overall im happy with the results from the 1st week and at the moment im heading in the right direction.

so you have restored my faith.

thanks.

TheGuvnor · 09-05-2006, 06:01 PM

lmao glad to be of service mate, there is far more knowledgable folk on this board to give you advice but as for the diet, ,thats basically same as mine although if anythin id say take one of the whey shakes out and replace it with solid food but then again whey is easier so......all in all i think your doin great mate, just seen your pic and your lookin very well, get that six pack and ull look amazing, keep it up mate. kev

madmonkey292 · 10-05-2006, 12:36 PM

Your right about the whey being alot easyier to get down and more practical especially at work but i will see what i can do.

Week3

my weight this morning was 17.10 stone which means i have lost a further 4lbs last week so once again im on target and i have another 14lb to lose to achieve my goal of around 10%BF if my maths and mearsuring of my BF% was correct before week1.

Training

My training has become a lot harder and has resulted in my weights dropping again and after about the second set feeling really knackered and struggling more than i wanted to do but as the weight is still dropping off im not to bothered.

bench down to 140kg
deadlift down to 180kg
squat down to 170kg
military press down to 75kg

Changes this week

As im still dropping weight im not going to change my diet this week but i'am going to change my cardio slightly, it is now going to be..

5km run followed by 20minute walk on an incline of 4.5 at 6.6km/h and then the usual sit-ups etc.

I'm toying with the idea of using Cell-tech?? i dont think it will do me any harm from reading other postings on this forum and hopefully if will give my muscle a fuller look.
I'm also starting to look at gear which i tend to introduce into my diet around the 1st week in June the gear im looking at is Trem and Masteron with some stanazol tabs quantitys etc have not yet been decided and if i can sort the cash out i will throw some GH in aswell.

thanks for your comments, the weights i have listed are for 5 sets of 5 reps on each exercise. I dont want to think how bad my 1 reps would have dropped :cry: all this just to try and get my abs out.
