All the bikes were busy so just did 30 minutes on the treadmill.
Workout was good but definitely could be better.
My gym was packed like crazy, guess the New Year resolution is starting early for some![/center]

Carl, if I am correct the lightest you have been in past years has been 265? I think at this pace you can breeze right past that. So far so good. :)

Yeah, the lightest I have been in the past 4 years were 265...
Last year of high school I went from 255 to 225 just for senior prom. By the end of freshman year of college, I was up to 265.
I want to be leaner than I was on my last year of high school:cool:
Thanks for the support!

[QUOTE=thatboijohn;265108471]Whats Your Diet Like.[/QUOTE]
Sample...has not been that for a couple of days (holidays)...We had Christmas dinner at home so have enough left over to last us two weeks! so have been eating that for the past two days :(
1) Oatmeal
2) 15 oz of skim milk with protein shake + cashews
3) Meat (Chicken breast, beef, ham,etc) + vegetables (salad, mixed greens or brocolli)
4) Same as 2
5) Same as 3
6) Cottage cheese + peanut butter + jelly

solid diet and excellent workout dude, your kicking ass, holidays almost over no worries

[QUOTE=Quelly;265171611]solid diet and excellent workout dude, your kicking ass, holidays almost over no worries[/QUOTE]
Yeah, but gained like 1 lb on this new diet! Not too stress though!
Waiting for the new year to get back to my loving diet!
Thanks for passing by bro! Leaving for cardio this afternoon, yeah, rest day!

Don't stress the pound weight loss might be a little slower at time for you because unlike most people that make fat loss their primary goal, you are not affraid to lift heavy. You will be rewarded handsomely when you reach those leaner stages.

Hey good luck with the diet, I am just happy that one less person is eating pizza :p
Also, yeah I hope so! We will have to wait and see what happens when I get there!
Also, are we talking like 20-30 lbs from now or more like 90-100 lbs from now?
I still can't see no difference!

It is called : holiday and new years overflow!
I got just freaking tired and pissed on bumping into people every time I need something or used something!
I cannot wait for March when the gym goes back to normal and barely have 5-6 person at a time in the weight and cardio area!
-
New plan!
kick ass...that simple ;)
-
I know you feel about always bumping into somebody. Or on chest day, all the benches are getting used. Of Somebody just sitting on a machine in between sets. I get pissed if I cant go in and just get done. I know most everybody, and most times I get the machines or whatever I want to use cuz I am about the strongest guy in there. One day, me and another dude were almost doing the same exact workout. I might go back to working out at home. I am very intense and dont bull**** around. I am not looking forward to the new year rush.
-
Yo Carl, it doesn't look like you're weak to me, man! What the heck you talkin about?
Good workout :)
