Hey , if it involves a road trip, shopping and eating out, my wife would be game. And meeting a homicidal maniac would be the icing on the cake

It's working for me so far. Still dropping fat and haven't had to adjust the diet any. Strength still good too.

Weigh/measure 1-28-06

Weight : 182
Waist : 33.5

Lost 2 lbs this week. Now I'm back ( actually lower ) than I was before the Holidays.

Running total : Lost 8 lbs in 4 weeks ,.5" off waist , dropped about 1.5% in Bodyfat. So far so good. Haven't had to make any changes in diet or wo to keep the fat loss going. It will happen sooner or later but until then I'll just stay with whats working.

Oh and as I type this I'm having cookies & milk Don't know whats for lunch but its PIZZA tonight For those that know or remember I do a cheat DAY every week. No holds barred on food intake that day

AWESOME BRother Gary, Congrats my Friend!!! I think I will do cardio in the PM also, but only like 20-25 minutes on Weight days, and do you think I should do 45 Minutes twice on non-weight days??? Or is two 45 minute sessions too much do you think???

On the weight and body fat drops. What do you use to take your body fat measurements?

Thanks Angel

Personally i would cut the cardio back as far as you can and still keep dropping the fat. I figure if I'm doing 20 mins and its working , then when 20 min doesn't work anymore I'll kick it up to 25 . But at 45 min , when that quits working you'll be getting even closer to an hour But on the other hand you will probably be cutting calories soon and probably several times before the contest so you may not have to increase your cardio time.

I say two 45 min sessions in one day is too much ( at least now) come closer to contest time you might be doing an hour twice a day

Remember what the all knowing and powerful Riss had to say :
Quote:
If you work out am then cardio would be ok afterwards the more the better, Try the stair master too, really pump your legs to try and get dem cuts out.
2 cardio sessions on your non weight days would be better.
Has far as 2 much?? I was doing 1 hr in the morning power walk for 8 mins then lunge for 2, then 1 hr on the bike after training (as described above) then another hr after dinner walking. I would still do 3 sessions on a non training day.... To do that much i think you really need to cover yourself with alot of Glutamine and Bcaa's i was havin 6-7 servings of each a day.
It will just be a difference of being soft on comp day or REALLY shredded!! Why put all the hard work in and come in soft?? A little bit extra and you'll look crazy!!
What you had posted up will be ok for now but we'll ramp up as you get closer
