I have been Journeying for awhile now and am ready to start sharing it. I feel that this will be motivating and fun. In this thread i will include my training, supplements, nutrition, and thoughts rather then going back and fourth from "the life" section. I will also post progress pics as i feel comfortable with to keep myself going and motivated. Size and strength has come easy for me but cutting, there's the challenge for me. It takes much discipline and commitment and im ready.
The goal, get down to 7-10% BF while maintaining size and strength. After I reach around 7% I will assess and bulk or continue to cut and perhaps have a go at an amateur competition. I have been lifting the majority of my adult life but have gotten very serious over the past year and a half and now it consumes the majority of my life. As I said in my Iron Bars writing (http://forum.animalpak.com/showthread.php?t=29101) "It's my religion" haha. Anyways im glad I have some like minded people to share my journey with who can encourage me in my journey and bounce knowledge and wisdom back and fourth with. I aim to be hard, dry, vascular and shredded and this is my journey down the road of BB. Some might call it the pain of progress i just call it the joy of iron.
Stats:
5'9/ 204 pounds/ BF% 14.9
Supplements:
Animal Pak/ Animal Omega/ Animal Cuts/ UniLiver/IsoPure 0 carb protein/ Chromium/ Milk Thistle.
Diet:
Anabolic diet, having my go at staying keto without the carb loading, 10-20 grams of carbs per day. Staying around 10 usually, After melting away the fat i will play with carb loading to maintain muscle mass and strength, see what best fits my body.
Nothing to it but to do, and so the Journey begins brethren.
