If I ate that breakfast i wouldn't be able to get out of my house, Nevermind workout and function. Anyway to answer your question someone can drastically change their physique in 2 months. If...

There's lots of ways to do it . 2 weeks is way to long to take completely off, you'll start to decondition . Let's say your doing MWF, I would skip WED and FRI workout this week. Then Monday and wed...

If size/bodybuilding/aesthetics are your goal I would scrap SS. The Lyle McDonald routine is really good as long as you can progress on all your lifts. From my experience most people can work a...
