How much will you pay me?? Seriously though...I will help you any way I can buddy!

**Prince** · 02-02-2004, 11:21 AM

was feeling a bit rundown when I did arms on Saturday, so I took Sunday off completely, and I am still contemplating on taking off tonite as well.

diet is going great, I weighed in first thing Saturday morning at 180lbs.

atherjen · 02-02-2004, 01:14 PM

sounds like things are def going along great for you then. I can relate to feeling rundown... Ive been as of late for sure. You were smart to take yestarday off.
Keep up the good work! 8 weeks and 5 days to go!!

**Prince** · 02-03-2004, 08:31 AM

took another day off from training (yesterday) just felt like I needed a little break, will resume training tonite.

weighed in first thing this morning at 182lbs, if anything I feel/look leaner, definitely have not gained any bf.

Randy · 02-03-2004, 10:39 AM

Prince,

You lazy ass

**Prince** · 02-03-2004, 11:17 AM

I know, I feel like one too.

I just do not want to get into a state of overtraining.

Randy · 02-03-2004, 11:53 AM

Yeah I hear ya Prince, your doing the right thing.
Sometimes your body needs a rest and a chance to rejuvenate.

I feel like doing the same myself today... Raining and miserable again in California

. Since I workout in my backyard, it makes for a bad day. Most of my equipment is in a room, but my bench press is out in the weather. I'm hoping the clouds clear long enough for me to get my benching in today

.

**Prince** · 02-04-2004, 12:56 PM

Trained legs last night, stayed in the 12 rep range, but it was a great work-out.

Tonite is chest and shoulders, weight will be moderate, and mostly dumbbell work.

I really need to get "serious" now (not that I haven't been) but I am down to 8 weeks and a couple of days and still weighing in at 182lbs in the morning. I do attribute some of this weight to PH's though, I am still getting leaner but I do not want to compete as a light heavyweight, need to weigh in below 176lbs. And for the first time ever the weigh in is at night (very unusual) and as you know we all weigh 4-5lbs heavier at night.

**Prince** · 02-08-2004, 08:31 PM

Update!

Yesterday was the 8 week mark, so I am now "balls to the walls" serious! I will NOT skip any cardio sessions, diet 100% strict, even my refeeds will now be nothing more than extra carbs either from whole wheat pasta, whole grain oats, etc.

Tonite was biceps an triceps, went very heavy on both, great work-out. Did 17 minutes HIIT cardio after my work-out, burned 180 calories. Last night I weighed in at 187lbs, yet have maintained leanness. I figure I need to lose 8-10lbs to get to competition shape.

I plan on taking pics in 2 weeks from yesterday, if I post that here I am obligating myself to it!

So, new pics will be taken and posted on February 21, that will be the 6 week mark.

Are you talking 8-10lbs of real weight or 8-10lbs of water that you are going to lose?

well, middle weight class cut-off is 176, first thing in the morning I am weighing around 182lbs, however the weigh in is at night, so I need to be at least 10lbs lighter than my nightly weigh in right now...

**P-funk** · 02-09-2004, 09:15 AM

gotcha. you are going to end up being a light heavy then? Or are you really shooting for the middle weight class? I think you look pretty good right now that at 8 weeks you are right on target.

**Prince** · 02-09-2004, 09:28 AM

No, I will be a middle weight, after I see how I do and how things go, where I end up with my weight, I might try and compete as a light heavy weight in November.

**P-funk** · 02-09-2004, 09:32 AM

Either way those are the two hardest weight classes to compete in.

yes they are...damn it!!!

**Prince** · 02-12-2004, 11:36 AM

Not much new...diet and training are going good, I am off of the PH's for now and I can see the water weight disappearing, I am going to start tanning this weekend.

Carb up days are limited to extra oatmeal in the morning and "clean" carbs in the evening.

ncgirl21 · 02-12-2004, 12:34 PM

Good Luck on your upcoming competition!!

I'm sure you'll do fantastic

**Prince** · 02-12-2004, 12:41 PM

thanks!

**P-funk** · 02-12-2004, 02:39 PM

how many cals per day are you at prince?

**Prince** · 02-12-2004, 02:41 PM

hell if I know, never was big on calorie counting!!!

2500 maybe? whatever it is it has not really changed in the last 8 weeks.

**P-funk** · 02-12-2004, 02:44 PM

If you don't count calories, I am curious, how were you making changes in your diet as the weeks went on? Just dropping carbs or something form each meal here and there?

eating is like training. Instincual
