Leanin out nice...def gettin close!!

DeadBolt: Thanks buddy, and I agree that I'm getting somewhat closer to my goal but I want to drop another 7-9 lbs. or so especially around my midsection. Right now I'm taking Lipoderm-ULTRA preworkout so that seems to be have a nice effect, also.

I took another progress picture tonight, lol. None of these are really progress pictures by the way they're pictures for my girlfriend when I'm at work, but they give an idea of my progress.

Looks good, but from what I have understood from HIIT cardio, it's more like

1 minute: 5 MPH
30 sec: 9 MPH
1 minute: 5 MPH
30 sec: MPH
etc
etc

Double D: I'm 5'11", bro.

BigDyl: There are tons of different ways to do HIIT cardio the way that I do it is just personal preference, no big deal.
