It's something to think about. I want to see how i look at the end of January. My current resolution for the next 12 weeks is to keep away from ALL junk food. If I cheat it will be something rather clean. I'm excited

I didn't wake up in time for the gym with the clocks being all messy.I am going to head to the gym tonight and burn it up
I intend on doing a very intense ab workout. I am going to try to hit a system something like this 3 days a week:
Decline Crunches with 35lb Plate: 4 sets/12 reps
Rope Crunches unsure of weight just yet: 4 sets/12 reps
Hanging Leg Lifts: 4 sets/15 reps
Side Knee Raises: 4 sets/15 reps
I never had a regular strong ab routine so I expect to condition them along with a solid diet. It is my worst area but I'm not down about it b/c I just simply never trained them intensely before![]()
Tonight I will add 20-40 minutes moderate cardio depending on how much time I have.
wahoooooooo![]()
glad you started a new journal
I'll be following along

Thanks! Yeah I'm pumped for the lean down phase. I am not calling it a "cut" b/c that instantly makes me think size-downOriginally Posted by Velvet
So it's the lean-down phase. It'll be our secret

Hey Girl!!Your gains are very impressive
You look very solid, I can't wait to see the end results!
When your cutting, how many calories do you plan on taking in?
Only time will tell if it was time well spent!
du510- Love the avi hun! Yeah I am going to use the next M1T cycle while I'm leaning out
Paynne- Great avi and sig! Thanks sooo much for being here![]()
NC- I cut back the carbs in the last meal and a little in the 5th meal. I upped the protein. The end result is about 2600-2700 cals. I am also going to add in moderate cardio after weights and see how I feel and look in 2 weeks. If I lose to fast I will up the cals to 3000 or so. Thanks for being here as well.
All the new peeps here is a great thing.

When do you plan on starting the m1t cycle? Ill be real curious as to how it goes. Personally, I have a real tough time doing cardio while on m1t. Real tough.
But, of course, I wish you the best of luck!![]()
I'll run 1 more starting Monday, November 15th. The last one went real well. I am checking out the contests in the summer my gf suggested. I will have a much more concise idea of competition around the end of January when I'm leaner.

Morning buddy!!!
I never like to jump the gun cause you just never know but I'm in good spirits about it all hun and I am looking at it very, very optimistically. I have hopes that something wonderful occurs but if nothing else I made a very cool friend it seems.As for the details, I don't make my details public but since y'll are my good buddies here at IM I will say in his defense he seems like an awesome guy and I hope it's only the beginning of at least a good friendship.
That was for lack of better words since it's been a long time since college, my vocabulary is limited
All in all I had such a genuwinely, good time and I really can't tell you in words how beautiful of a person he seems to be inside and out. If all else fails (crossing fingers it won't) but if it does, he is a keeper as a friend

Okay romance story over.
Y'll know more about my day to day life than some of my best buds

You should go for it Lis, you're looking awesome and you'd have a blast I'm sure... I also bet if you do one you'll be wanting to do another!Originally Posted by shutupntra1n

It's nice to hear that you may attempt a comp. With your build and desire, you will do very well for yourself.
I first told her there was a new lady on IM that was 160+ lbs. Her first reaction, as are most, is "Wow ... how much does she need to loose" Then I showed her your picture and she was floored - as are most! You my dear are in a class all your own. I wish you only the best, as you won't need luck with your drive.
Now rollin' with the Raider
Thanks NTI appreciate your kind words man. I think I'm going to do a bikini contest in Atlantic City next summer b/c top prize is $10,000

My mind frame as of now is to see how the "leaning out phase" goes and decide then if I feel up to a comp.

Shut ... do the 'bikini' contest there get ruled by the 'well endowed' women like they do here?
In a contest a few years ago, Mrs. NT was up against some, what I call, professional bikini contestants. Mrs.NT had won the crowd over but lost to a well endowed (store bought) pro.![]()

Hey Lis!
It was great talking to you the other day. I took some of your suggestions and worked them into my plan. You really helped me alot - thanks!
Glad you are thinking of competing. Wow ten grand? I may have to take a ride down to that area next year![]()
"I've failed over and over and over again in my life and that is why I succeed." Michael Jordan
NT- It's just a bunch of local girls from the NJ area in Wal Mart style bikinis. It's paid out and advertised by Trump's Casinos. That's why the pay is so much. They run it in a cut fashion throughout July and August finally dwindling down to a few girls. It runs on the weekends only I think. It's about 35-40 minute drive for me... I'll see if I can find some pics from previous comps and paste them here. No bb type girls so I will try to have a different look to win![]()
Hey Girl! Anytime Jill. Nice to talk to ya.Originally Posted by jstar

Cool ... then you have a terrifice shot at winning. As you said, you're bringing a whole new and exciting style to it.![]()

It's cool though, I would love to see you take the plunge and compete, keep us posted as to what you decide.![]()
Thanks peoplesYes I will let you know all the ups and downs of how I feel about it. I will have a very good idea come the end of January/February. I have been eating super clean this week. I have a lot of motivation to lean so I haven't been battling food at all.
I have incorporated a strong ab routine which is going so well. Abs staying tender after the workouts. The "burn" is there and intense. I also did a few 15 minute cardio sessions last week to work back into it. May up it to 30 today.![]()
