Mr. Xrcise's 2011 Double T Transformation Challenge Log
It has come time for me to join the ranks of my comrades and enter the 2011 Double T Sports Transformation Challenge. For the duration of this 18 week excursion, I will be utilizing BetaCene, NO Beta and NitroMine. Further down the road, KetoCuts and TestX6 will be added to the arsenal. My short term goal for this challenge will be to shed the layers of body fat that I have amassed throughout the winter months and dial in my nutrition. This accomplishment will make my long term goal of becoming a Double T Sports sponsored athlete and hitting the stage for the (USBF) NEPA Natural (November 2012) a bit more manageable.
My training sessions will be 5-6 days weekly with rest days as needed to recover properly. I will be doing a variety of exercises with a focus on light weights and high reps. My cardio will consist of using the recumbent bike, the treadmill and the heavy bag/speed bag beginning with single sessions on training days. As the day of reckoning gets closer, these sessions will increase to twice on training days.
My nutrition will consist of a minimum of 6 meals daily and I will be concentrating on eating CLEAN, CLEAN, CLEAN! The most difficult point throughout this journey will be the fact that my eldest daughter, my wife and my own birthday will be coming in May, towards the end of the challenge. There can be no derailing from the path this time around if I want the best possible results. DISCIPLINE is the word of the day!
I have been shrouded within my personal cocoon, the metamorphosis will now begin. It will be a long and trying journey, but I am more than game for the challenge. Feel free to follow along with me to witness this transformation and I implore you to push me towards this goal. As always I welcome criticisms, support and advice!
My INSPIRATION for this challenge is the foundation of my support system, my wife and two beautiful daughters. I want them to understand that you ARE able to make healthy choices, enjoy life and maybe help someone else along the way.
My MOTIVATION for me to see this challenge through to the end is the fact that I would become a DTS sponsored athlete and have a physique good enough for me to hit the stage in 2012.
My STRENGTH to strive forward comes from the Heavenly Father, the DTS family, the DILF Nation and other members of Body Space.
