Andrew, what bodyweight are you aiming to nail by the end of this cut? Or are you just on-going until you're happy?

Andy? LMFAO

He doesn't like being refered to as that?

I'll edit.

lmao...I don't know...but it was funny!

Yes I dislike it...and now she's gonna use that to peeve me I bet.....

Thanks for changing it TCD When I grew up in the Bahamas, the English girls all called me, Ondy (On-dy)..drove me nuts...lol

I was hoping for 212 at 6%....but I'm stuck in "life happens" mode and it's looking like 205-208....literally "No Change" but age for a year. I think the high point was in December almost 224 at just under (I hope) 10%....

When it gets warmer, I get leaner, so we'll see

Bah, just get fat and go to flab acceptance groups.

Ironic how you get fat acceptance groups and yet you'll never find cocaine-addiction acceptance groups, eh?


Anyway, so you're around the 210lb mark now, yeah? What bf% or there abouts?

And seriously, how much visible difference is it to you going from 8% to 6%?

8% to 6% is dramatic..more vascularity, striations, depth of cuts....and an illusion of being bigger. Given a constant BW..lower BF almost always looks bigger.

I can't just get fat...and I could use a post bulk accepetance group, as I seem to have a little redistribution of BF since.......I was sufferig from VAT blues...still very lean in the legs, chest, arms and shoulders....I ran some figures at 7.2% to as high as 8.7%...but I didn't submit to fat testing for fear of failure

My best guess...7.6 to 8.2 @213 today...my body's new tendency is to look ripped only/mostly when just waking or pumped

I already know the math sucks....lol

Weekly Report:

BW

M 212.5
T 212.25
w 212.75
Th 213
F 212.25

Range bound, but nice defintion all week....superior morning cuts all this week. Good W/O's and strength

Highlights:

We have been doing some exercises suspended from chains, like feet on a swiss ball, prone chins..and push-ups:

Speaking of new interesting exercises..... Dr. J had some chains cut w/handles attached...and usually he invents stupid worthless exercises...but we took the chains and suspended them from the smith bar so the handles dangled just past shoulder width about 4 inches above the ground...then we did push-ups... (grabbing the second handle was a bitch)...... first w/feet on the ground.....hard....then two more sets with feet up on a swiss ball, very fucking hard

and a simple but good Leg W/O:

4 sets of

1a) Front squat
1b) Smith squat
1c) Back Squat...no RI until 1c) then 120 sec

This was pretty convient because the power cage was next to the Smith....too much whining form Dr. J


then 3 sets of

2a) BB SLDL
2b) DB SLDL

..and 3 sets of

3a) Seated Calves
3b) Smith Calves

DP

Addendum:

Ladders today for both front raises and side laterals were kind of a highlight....

And I'm experimenting with my own "Fat Oxidation Stack" CLA and Guarana (posts here from the LEF cited studies), plus Green Tea Capsules (24 hour fat oxidation studies)...about 3 days a week.....good energy w/o the the "ECA" feeling, plus increased mental clarity....almost a mood elev8tion...I'm considering adding 5 HTP, as a secondary experiment!

Weekly Blah Blah....

F 213.75 (bad water, carbs the day before)

Hightlights:

Good lifts. W/O's and Definition .....Excellent "Body Week"

I actually think my Fat Burning Formula; Guarana/Green tea/CLA is working well.....I usually don't have BO, except when oxidizing BF......and I've had some.....lol

That's it.....

DP

lmao!

Green tea is ace.

I know what you mean about smelling when burning fat.

hi stinky!

Do you take r-ALA still, I think I remember you took that or would that be the same as CLA?

Do you take Guarana in liquid format like a drink with the rest of the cocktail?

Hi Lina,

No I take a s-r type Sustained Release combo, 300 mgs once a day of ALA (Jarrow or Source Naturals), but I will be swtiching to R type from Source naturals imside of a week, since they just gave me some . The CLA is Tonalin XS (Jarrow or Source Naturals)...3 Soft Gels- 3-4X a day

But the Guarana is Natrol, 500 mgs (I take one), the Green Tea Extract is Jarrow, 500 mgs (std at 30% plus, and runs about 8% caffiene) (I take two). I take this upon waking, then late morning on an empty stomach if I remember

....and it's working....

If you feel ambigitious, there is a Guarana/Green Tea citation some were on the site from LEF (Life Extension Foundation)

BW ADDENDUM SAT = 211 DEPLETION YESTERDAY!

Great so I get to stink now too. Like the dating scene isn't hard enough

Weekly Update

BW 211.5 to 212.5 Missed 2 scales

Highlights:

Traded a box of Atkins Bars and a bake mix for a haircut for me, and a trim for MP from TG's Sister, tans from TG

Good "Body" Week again....realized the stack is working well, and the shorter the RI, the more I smell....

Some of my W/O's are in Spain's Journal...

That is all

DP

You're funny!
