All right, I Have about seven weeks left of school and I am supposed to be a hell of a lot closer to my six pack than I am. I have made some decent gains over the winter, but my stomach has not done too much, and since I have to cut out almost all of my supplements in order to pass a drug test for my summer job, I may as well make the next seven weeks a hardcore ripping stage.

Here are the stats that I know of;
Age - 22
Height - 6'1
Weight - 214 lbs.
Arms - 181/8 " (Very full pump)
BF% - Hell if I know, but you can see somewhat of a four pack in the right lighting and if I flex really hard.
Max Bench - 345lbs.

So here's my story, last summer I was doing fairly well on cardio (well for me anyways). I was able to run for over 3 miles on the treadmill at 7mph and at an incline. Then I hurt my knee pretty bad. I did a mile on no incline a couple of days ago and felt like I was gonna hurl, I have gone down really bad so it's time to get serious.

I intend on doing the following at LEAST four times a week;
12 laps around the gym = 1 mile
1.5 miles on stepper on level 9
hitting the heavy bag until I give
abs - 3 sets of four exercises, maybe more
eating once a day and a protein shake for dinner
No alcohol.....well I'll give it a good go anyways.
Less wasting time at the bar and on....women. Ouch that's gonna be rough.

This will be on top of my regular workout program which is going fairly well, so I won't bother putting that down.

My goal is to have a fairly decent six pack in about seven weeks, and to add incentive to my goal I am making this promise that I will post a picture of myself at the end of this trial and I want you all to make fun of me if I don't do it. Well, let's rock!

Hey dude, you might instead of cutting out all the food, switch to 6 small meals to keep your metabolism up. Otherwise once your stomach is empty your metabolism will start slowing down (expecially with no sups). I used to eat like how you described and it helped to maintain but I didn't lose anything.

Don't know if this will help ya any. If I didn't have my side job I'd make this one a challenge, but I can't go the gym at night. so the little bit of cardio in the mornings is all i get

But maybe in 2 or 3 weeks we'll see, might just push ya some more. Damn wish I were back in school some days.

Good luck dude, keep us posted

Actually that makes sense to have smaller meals instead of just pig out at lunch time. It will probably be a lot easier for me to do as well. Thanx for thought buddy.

Did 12 laps around the gym, which is supposed to be 1 mile, but I pulled it off in 7 minutes 35 seconds, not sure if I'm fast enough to do that so I better check the measurements with the gym manager again. Beet the crap out of the heavy bag but saved some strength for arms later today and the stepper went fairly well. Will do stomach after I finish arm workout. Yae, almost done day 1

Ok, I noticed a big flaw in my system yesturday. Apparently beating the shyt out of a punching bag in the morning makes for a very bad arm workout in the afternoon. But other than that, so far so good. I am waking up early to do my mile run and I do the stepper in the afternoon after my workout with weights. I'm not too sure how I'm going to be tommorrow as I had a pretty intense leg workout today so running tommorrow morning might not be a very impressive sight. Guess I'll find out in the morning. G'night

Hey, if running is tough and you have a precor eliptical do that. Normally after my leg days that's what I do. You still burn a lot of calories while at the same time, it's not so hard on your knees. lmao and of course then you just glide, barely have to actually lift your legs so after a hard leg days it's my prefered cardio.

I normally stick with that and the stepper. Stepper kicks my ass more though, but after leg day it just doesn't work.

Oh yeah almost forgot, if I were you I'd skip the heavy bag on arm day. Kinda like I skip cardio on leg day. That way you can get a good workout in, and less risk of overtaining or overuse.

As I figured, I woke up in the morning went up the stairs to the living room and said to hell with running today as my legs hurt from the frickin stairs. unfortunately there is no eliptical runner here, so I'll just take today as an off day for cardio, I'll still do stomach though. I was very proud of my shoulder workout today as I tried the 100lb dumbells for shoulder presses, I needed a spotter for the first one then I was able to pull off a couple by myself so that's pretty groovy Not doing any lifting tommorrow so I'll put in a little extra cardio, thanx for the advice Dvlmn

thanx bud, It took a while to get there. I started when I was 17 and did fairly good untill I was 19. Then for the next couple of years I went down hill BAD. I hit the gym maybe once every couple of months. Right before I turned 21 I started going hard again and have been doing pretty good since, turn 23 in June.

Nothing new to add, cardio is going fairly well, thinking about running a mile and a half instead of just 1. I think I'll try to keep adding a little bit week by week.

I just wen`t back up the top and reread your first post and almost shyt myself!

You`re only eating once a day, and one protien shake?!?!?

Dude, I`m sure you want your six pac, but I know, you know, you`ll lose quite a bit of overall muscle doing this.

Are you now taking dvlmn666`s advice on the small meals?

Eating just once will have your metabolisum crawling along, but several small meals will have it burning.

Sorry if none of this makes any sense...it`s taken forever to type as I`m about 10 drinks passed drunk.

LMAO, I'm sort of taking Dvlmn's advice. I'm eating two smaller meals a day and a protein shake.

Yesturday kicked ass I did the stepper on level 9 for 1.75 miles, ran for 1.25 miles and hit the bag for.....a shyt, I have no idea but it was pretty long, and did good on my abs. I missed this morning's run as the whole dorm was up till 4 in the morning, I'll make it up this afternoon.

kuso drunk? **roflmao**

hey dude, are you drinking enough water? That'll help you lose weight to, at least it did me. **shrug**

Hey add in another meal or something, maybe a protein drink when ya wake up. That's what I do first thing in the morning. Gotta get your metabolism going to burn more.

Big party last night or what lol

Way to kick a$$ yesterday, looks like your getting back to the levels you were before you layed off on the cardio.

I do drink a lot, of water but I should probably drink more, water. Good idea thanx bud.

Should I have the protein shake before or after my morning run?

Not much of a party last night, lot's of bullshyt with homework and an idiot room mate;

And what does (sic) stand for? I see that on a few things and have always wondered?

I have it before I hit the gym. Kinda figured that way your body gets going, and metabolism starts kicking in, then hit the weights and cardio to keep it going even more. Plus the little bit of carbs in the protein drinks should make you able to push harder on the cardio and hopefully promote burning those carbs then bodyfat, and save you more muscle.

I'm no expert though, but so far it's been working for me. And before this I used to always skip breakfast to.

Ahh that's what it's for, I wonder why it is so common on other things? oh well, Thanx for the protein advice, I'll give it a shot tomorrow. Should I take a certain amount of time before I run?

Felt kinda sluggish today but still got up and ran 15 laps around the gym (1.25 miles) I felt like I could still go longer though. Perhaps if I got my lazy ass out of bed when I was supposed to instead of lying there for 20 minutes trying to think of an excuse not go running I might have. Oh well, I'll get to bed a little earlier tonight and not see what tommorrow brings. I'll do the stepper after I work my back this afternoon.

Hey you still went, that's what matters. I usually take the protein first thing when I wake up, so it's about 45 minutes before doing either lifting or cardio. That gives my stomach enough time to start digesting it and not get a stomach ache or feel bloated or anything.

I think it's popular just because of slipknot, they had it on almost every one of there shirts for a while there. And it's kinda catchy I guess, I'm working on thinking up something new for under my name but the right thing I just haven't thought up yet lol

Creativity isn't exactly my specialty, need a computer fixed or built now that I can kick ass on, but ask me to think up something creative might as well wait a month or so lol

Well this is definitely NOT groovy! In todays class, where we learn how to teach physical education, we had a project where the students teach other students in my not so favorite event, gymnastics. Anyways, this one group had cartwheels as a part of their project, so the whole class had to do cartwheels, well actually only about 1/3 of the class tried, and I decided to give it a go. It may come as a shock to you all, but I really haven't been working on my cartwheels too much lately, and I landed hard on my ass and somehow took a good part of the shock sideways on my leg. I tried doing stepper a little while ago and I could feel something wrong. It hurts, not too bad, but enough to tell me that I better lay off. Hopefully just for tonight, I'll give it a go again tommorrow.

Today went really well, it was made for running. I woke up at around 5 am and I felt wide awake, I decided to go slowly into this breakfast thing so I only had a glass of milk before I ran instead of a protein shake.
I decided to go running at about 5:30 only one problem, doors are locked untill 6, but I decide to try and see if the security guard would be nice enough. Got to the college and they forgot to lock the wheelchair accessable door. Great i'm in, hopefully I will be able to get in the gym now, sure enough they had the door locked, but they didn't close it all the way so I was able to get in. This is too good, Only thing that would be better is if I could get my music blaring in there, no way would they forget to lock the sound room. Check the handle, yep it's locked, push the door, holy shit. They didn't close the door all the way on this one either. So I ended up running around 3 miles worth, man it was funny when the old security guy came in the gym that was supposed to be empty and here I am running with Danzig and Slipknot blaring

Irontime,

You stated that you aren't as close to a six pack as you would like to be, maybe the problem is that you are too close to a six pack if you know what I mean. (Blood, Sweat, and BEERS).

irontime · 03-13-2002, 03:08 PM

Ya, that is a little bit of a hinderance

Ah shit, it must have got screwed up on the transition over from MM, the "1/8" was in a smaller size, the damn copy/paste method didn't pull to well

thanx fixed it

lol

irontime · 03-14-2002, 05:59 PM

Well I payed the price today. Yesturday's 5 am wake up left me too damn tired to run in the morning so I decided to do it before The phys ed class. Today I also made the mistake of cheating a little bit for lunch, I had a chicken burger wit bacon and onion rings. About an hour after I eat that I go for my run.

The people that are going to be doing their presentation are in the gym early setting up, and most of them are girls, HOT girls. So I start my run, bad mistake. About two laps after I start I'm out of breath, but I refuse to let myself give up in front of the ladies. So I force myself to keep going, about six laps later I taste onion ring bile in my throat, still won't give in, I force another 8 laps out. Ok enough showing off, I gave up.

Going to do shoulders right now then I'll hit the stepper.

Thats cheating a little bit?!

dvlmn666 · 03-15-2002, 11:50 AM

hey IT, as long as you were running and not stumbling around the tack. Get any numbers outa that little exhibition?

j/k

at least you still went and did the work. and hell gotta cheat sometimes. I do it one day a weekend.

irontime · 03-15-2002, 04:36 PM

Ya cheating is fun sometimes, I cheated again last night but it was for a good cause. I ended up getting drunk with two chicks and it ended up with the three of us in my dorm. They were in there bra's and I was in my underwear. I tried but it didn't get much further than that, a couple of good feels but that's about it. So I ended up skipping today as I was still drunk this morning, hell I just finished drinking again at lunch so I'm still drunk right now. I'm gonna stop alcohol for a good month after Sunday, i'd asy today but wrestlemaniais theis weekend and I'll have a few for that

irontime · 03-16-2002, 04:16 PM

Damn, barely any of my posts made sense yesturday, oh well.
Did great today. After my chest workout I hit the stepper and made a new personal best. I went on the 'iron lung' setting and on level 9 for 22 minutes. I was drenched when I got off that. Gonna go do some stomach right away and I'll walk to work tonight if it isn't too cold. That's about 2.5 miles.

Sorry dvlmnn, missed your question, screen was a little blurry yesturday

lol Nope no numbers, but they were able to witness some good stamina. Maybe that will give them some ideas

dvlmn666 · 03-16-2002, 05:47 PM

lol, can't say I haven't been at that point when typing before **efg**

awesome on your best, soon you'll be up to the point were you can do that one race you were talkin about before.

good luck on the security stuff, hey sometimes that candy a$$ music gets some fine women. keep your eyes open.

this zombie concert has become a pain in the a$$ but now I'm going by myself and will have a great time.

and after Wrestlemania you better get back to your diet, or I'll have abs before you will.

irontime · 03-18-2002, 12:18 PM

All right, no more beer

I was a slug this morning. The slight throbbing and queezy feeling in my stomach told me I wasn't running. I'll see what happens this afternoon if I can make it or not. Not much of a journal entry eh?

dvlmn666 · 03-18-2002, 12:24 PM

Looks like we both managed to be lazy a$$'s today. lol

irontime · 03-18-2002, 07:00 PM

Well I did good this afternoon. Arm workout kicked ass, I was able to curl the 75lbs dumbells a couple of times, well more like one and a half times, but still it's an improvement. After that I hit the stepper hard. Did 3 miles on the ironlung level 9. Frickin wasted me.

dvlmn666 · 03-18-2002, 07:05 PM

oh sure, damn I have to work tonight, so no night workout for me.

good job though dude, tomorrow's chest and bi's for me.

irontime · 03-19-2002, 12:58 PM

Simple day so far, Had a good run this morning plan on hitting the treadmill this afternoon. Did some abs this morning and will again later but that's about it for working out today.

irontime · 03-20-2002, 06:52 PM

Well did legs today. Kinda tried out your idea for calves dvlmn, with the 75's and all. For calve raises I have to use the seated leg press so this is what I did
15 raises on 260kg
30 raises on 130kg
30 raises on 70kg
At least I'm assuming that they are in kg, the damn thing are just numbered 1-26 lol. Wanted to do stepper before the workout but the machine was taken so I tried after, lasted about 7 minutes, so from now on it's only before I do legs

dvlmn666 · 03-20-2002, 07:23 PM

that isnt' the 75 rep thing for calves. Want me to post it somewere? I found it in a magazine, and SC over at the other board posted it once.

But good job on what ya did. On sat I'll try the thing and drop the weights like you did. Gotta change it up every once in a while.

Hey a good thing after legs that I've found so they don't get so tight taht evening or next day, is to ride bike for about 15-30 minutes after you work them.

When I was able to do that, before it seemed to work. Plus kept burnin some extra cals.

Tomorrow I'm gonna see if our steppers have that Iron Lung level. See if I can even do that thing.

kuso · 03-20-2002, 07:36 PM

Dvlman...can you post that 75 deal somewhere...I was looking for it at mm.com, but couldn`t seem to find it.

irontime · 03-20-2002, 09:45 PM

Ya please post it bud, I want to try that. I'll have to do the bike for 15 minutes after legs from now on, then maybe I'll be able to run the next day

lol
That iron lung level has been called different things on different steppers. It should be on the bottom right hand side of the programs. It basically starts out low, goes straight up high,works down half, works up high again, then drops straight down low.

irontime · 03-21-2002, 11:19 AM

Legs hurt this morning so I only went 1 mile. I noticed last night that my stomach is looking better so I weighed myself this morning, 210lbs, I dropped 5lbs. Dvlmn you are going DOWN buddy

Have shoulders this afternoon, I'll hit the stepper after that.

You`re only eating once a day, and one protien shake?!?!? Dude, I`m sure you want your six pac, but I know, you know, you`ll lose quite a bit of overall muscle doing this. Are you now taking dvlmn666`s advice on the small meals? Eating just once will have your metabolisum crawling along, but several small meals will have it burning.

I'm eating two smaller meals a day and a protein shake. Yesturday kicked ass I did the stepper on level 9 for 1.75 miles, ran for 1.25 miles and hit the bag for.....a shyt, I have no idea but it was pretty long, and did good on my abs. I missed this morning's run as the whole dorm was up till 4 in the morning, I'll make it up this afternoon. __________________ Just killing time, waiting to die. And you? dvlmn666 (sic) kuso drunk? roflmao hey dude, are you drinking enough water? That'll help you lose weight to, at least it did me. shrug Hey add in another meal or something, maybe a protein drink when ya wake up. That's what I do first thing in the morning. Gotta get your metabolism going to burn more. Big party last night or what lol Way to kick a$$ yesterday, looks like your getting back to the levels you were before you layed off on the cardio. __________________ Life is just a dream on the way to death! ------------------- dvlmn666 irontime #1 Jackass I do drink a lot, of water but I should probably drink more, water. Good idea thanx bud. Should I have the protein shake before or after my morning run? Not much of a party last night, lot's of bullshyt with homework and an idiot room mate; http://www.musclemagazine.com/bb/sh...?threadid=56570 And what does (sic) stand for? I see that on a few things and have always wondered? __________________ Just killing time, waiting to die. And you? dvlmn666 (sic) I have it before I hit the gym. Kinda figured that way your body gets going, and metabolism starts kicking in, then hit the weights and cardio to keep it going even more. Plus the little bit of carbs in the protein drinks should make you able to push harder on the cardio and hopefully promote burning those carbs then bodyfat, and save you more muscle. I'm no expert though, but so far it's been working for me. And before this I used to always skip breakfast to. (sic) is the first song off of the first slipknot cd lol, my username on some other things is dvlmn6(sic)6 __________________ Life is just a dream on the way to death! ------------------- dvlmn666 irontime #1 Jackass Ahh that's what it's for, I wonder why it is so common on other things? oh well, Thanx for the protein advice, I'll give it a shot tomorrow. Should I take a certain amount of time before I run? Felt kinda sluggish today but still got up and ran 15 laps around the gym (1.25 miles) I felt like I could still go longer though. Perhaps if I got my lazy ass out of bed when I was supposed to instead of lying there for 20 minutes trying to think of an excuse not go running I might have. Oh well, I'll get to bed a little earlier tonight and not see what tommorrow brings. I'll do the stepper after I work my back this afternoon. __________________ Just killing time, waiting to die. And you? dvlmn666 (sic) Hey you still went, that's what matters. I usually take the protein first thing when I wake up, so it's about 45 minutes before doing either lifting or cardio. That gives my stomach enough time to start digesting it and not get a stomach ache or feel bloated or anything. I think it's popular just because of slipknot, they had it on almost every one of there shirts for a while there. And it's kinda catchy I guess, I'm working on thinking up something new for under my name but the right thing I just haven't thought up yet lol Creativity isn't exactly my specialty, need a computer fixed or built now that I can kick ass on, but ask me to think up something creative might as well wait a month or so lol __________________ Life is just a dream on the way to death! ------------------- dvlmn666 irontime #1 Jackass Registered: Mar 2001 Location: Canada, Eh. Posts: 1994 Well this is definitely NOT groovy! In todays class, where we learn how to teach physical education, we had a project where the students teach other students in my not so favorite event, gymnastics. Anyways, this one group had cartwheels as a part of their project, so the whole class had to do cartwheels, well actually only about 1/3 of the class tried, and I decided to give it a go. It may come as a shock to you all, but I really haven't been working on my cartwheels too much lately, and I landed hard on my ass and somehow took a good part of the shock sideways on my leg. I tried doing stepper a little while ago and I could feel something wrong. It hurts, not too bad, but enough to tell me that I better lay off. Hopefully just for tonight, I'll give it a go again tommorrow. __________________ Just killing time, waiting to die. And you?1/8 Last edited by irontime : 03-14-2002 at 11:26 AM.

I woke up at around 5 am and I felt wide awake, I decided to go slowly into this breakfast thing so I only had a glass of milk before I ran instead of a protein shake. I decided to go running at about 5:30 only one problem, doors are locked untill 6, but I decide to try and see if the security guard would be nice enough. Got to the college and they forgot to lock the wheelchair accessable door. Great i'm in, hopefully I will be able to get in the gym now, sure enough they had the door locked, but they didn't close it all the way so I was able to get in. This is too good, Only thing that would be better is if I could get my music blaring in there, no way would they forget to lock the sound room. Check the handle, yep it's locked, push the door, holy shit. They didn't close the door all the way on this one either. So I ended up running around 3 miles worth, man it was funny when the old security guy came in the gym that was supposed to be empty and here I am running with Danzig and Slipknot blaring

Yesturday's 5 am wake up left me too damn tired to run in the morning so I decided to do it before The phys ed class. Today I also made the mistake of cheating a little bit for lunch, I had a chicken burger wit bacon and onion rings. About an hour after I eat that I go for my run. The people that are going to be doing their presentation are in the gym early setting up, and most of them are girls, HOT girls. So I start my run, bad mistake. About two laps after I start I'm out of breath, but I refuse to let myself give up in front of the ladies. So I force myself to keep going, about six laps later I taste onion ring bile in my throat, still won't give in, I force another 8 laps out. Ok enough showing off, I gave up. Going to do shoulders right now then I'll hit the stepper.

They were in there bra's and I was in my underwear. I tried but it didn't get much further than that, a couple of good feels but that's about it. So I ended up skipping today as I was still drunk this morning, hell I just finished drinking again at lunch so I'm still drunk right now. I'm gonna stop alcohol for a good month after Sunday, i'd asy today but wrestlemaniais theis weekend and I'll have a few for that

After my chest workout I hit the stepper and made a new personal best. I went on the 'iron lung' setting and on level 9 for 22 minutes. I was drenched when I got off that. Gonna go do some stomach right away and I'll walk to work tonight if it isn't too cold. That's about 2.5 miles. Sorry dvlmnn, missed your question, screen was a little blurry yesturday lol Nope no numbers, but they were able to witness some good stamina. Maybe that will give them some ideas

The slight throbbing and queezy feeling in my stomach told me I wasn't running. I'll see what happens this afternoon if I can make it or not. Not much of a journal entry eh?

Arm workout kicked ass, I was able to curl the 75lbs dumbells a couple of times, well more like one and a half times, but still it's an improvement. After that I hit the stepper hard. Did 3 miles on the ironlung level 9. Frickin wasted me.

Did some abs this morning and will again later but that's about it for working out today.

Kinda tried out your idea for calves dvlmn, with the 75's and all. For calve raises I have to use the seated leg press so this is what I did 15 raises on 260kg 30 raises on 130kg 30 raises on 70kg At least I'm assuming that they are in kg, the damn thing are just numbered 1-26 lol. Wanted to do stepper before the workout but the machine was taken so I tried after, lasted about 7 minutes, so from now on it's only before I do legs

dvlmn666 Senior Member Elite Member Join Date: Dec 2001 Location: Fremont, CA Posts: 3,233	that isnt' the 75 rep thing for calves. Want me to post it somewere? I found it in a magazine, and SC over at the other board posted it once. But good job on what ya did. On sat I'll try the thing and drop the weights like you did. Gotta change it up every once in a while. Hey a good thing after legs that I've found so they don't get so tight taht evening or next day, is to ride bike for about 15-30 minutes after you work them. When I was able to do that, before it seemed to work. Plus kept burnin some extra cals. Tomorrow I'm gonna see if our steppers have that Iron Lung level. See if I can even do that thing.

I'll have to do the bike for 15 minutes after legs from now on, then maybe I'll be able to run the next day lol That iron lung level has been called different things on different steppers. It should be on the bottom right hand side of the programs. It basically starts out low, goes straight up high,works down half, works up high again, then drops straight down low.

I noticed last night that my stomach is looking better so I weighed myself this morning, 210lbs, I dropped 5lbs. Dvlmn you are going DOWN buddy Have shoulders this afternoon, I'll hit the stepper after that.
