Guys in your opinion are my tattoos going to get in the way of competing? I'm planning basically full body coverage and already have most of my upper right arm covered......I've never seen tattooed...

My damned gym doesn't even run half that stuff, and won't let me take any martial arts classes (I really really want to start kung fu) due to my piercings. Gggrrrrr.........

I'm taking up Capoeira...

I have revised the diet plan I showed above.

I'm awaiting delivery of some 100% Whey at the moment as it happens. I am eating loads of meat each major meal but will make up some raw egg smoothies in the meantime to have with breakfast etc....

I just started training too. I do light stretching of all muscle groups before I do my cardio (but I warm up first by walking briskly to the gym), then if I'm doing legs/shoulders, for example, on a...
