Ending up doing some legs and cardio

For legs...I did not write down or count 1 single thing. I just went in and started doing work
When my mind said go...I went..and when my mind said stop..I stopped
All I know is that I did 5 Quad exercises and 5 Ham exercises. and performed cardio right after.




Pics after week 7

I didnt have Ice Cream....YET..Get It?

[sammykapp]

You are definitely earning that post-contest meal...with lots of ice cream....

Nice work Clement!

[boundformuscle]

Everything is looking GREAT! Those legs are cut so deep, WOW!!! Your LATS bro are out of this world!! Really nice work!!!!!

[Vytis]

That's one heck of a transformation in 7 weeks! Would you mind telling us what kind of caloric deficit and cardio got you in this condition? I'd ask for exact macros but I know you like to keep your secrets.... I'm just curious, because the majority of people suggest small incremental cuts to the calories each week to keep fat loss progressing, and I remember you said that you had a depletion week. Just curious as to your thoughts on this.

[bballbrett5]

wait now i'm a little confused on the dogg tactics...does the description go with current day while the pics are behind, or does the write-up reflect the state with the pictures even though the current date is there/

If you are talking about After the binge..I pretty much Panicked and i decided to Lower all 3 of the Big Boys..Pro..carbs FAts...BIG TIME.. This is not something one should do..I just panicked and did this.I would only normally limit carbs after such a binge..but after losing it..I cut em all. I reduced my fats literally by half and pro about 50 gr for a span.i did incur Muscle lost ...but i took the good with the bad.good thing i had a decent amount to spare....before the binge it was of course small incremental changes ALL THE TIME

wait now i'm a little confused on the dogg tactics...does the description go with current day while the pics are behind, or does the write-up reflect the state with the pictures even though the current date is there/

lol @ Dogg Tactics.lol.Its not the episode of Scare Tatics Just yet.
Im hoping you are the only one confused. as I

The description with the current day is the description of the Workouts for the day.

The pictures is what I am posting to bring everyone up to speed with where I was from the start..the last pic posted was 3 weeks post binge. I hope anyone else is not confused..I was going to go str8 to the current ones..I just decided to show where i was from the start and how i got here...I do have a current pic of what i look like in my old thread that big Rig Posted.that was taken last week
If anyone else is confused Ill just accurately state the facts more detailed and accurate..btw,,if anyone is confused.. I am NOT currently contest prepping for Worlds either.

Im going to have to whip out the headphones start coming soon as I got to get my focus down packed

I did Shoulders and Arms hypertrophy Today....My arms imo have really taken off so far during this ride..as for years this was a lagging part..I am kinda proud of the improvement in those der guns..just got to up the ante in others to make a good impact on the stage fore-front when time arrives.

I aint posting no w/o numbas oe exercises.... SO DONT ASK..

Nothing much to report except the fact that I believe I am on the mend. Need to step it up in some areas as the fatigue factor has been setting in. Just trying to build back up upon what i sacrificed from the binge believe it or not..I believe I am doing a good job as I am trying to get back where I left off
Im playing the time factor and the waiting game of sorts



Always a good time working out in a new place trying out diff apparatus















around these select times I would get leaner...but also would be the time the injury bug would come into play with the groin., back etc..weight had to be reduced..but imo...so was my size! in some areas that is


Another week in the making

[sammykapp]

Congratulations on FINALLY being on the mend. Judging by your testing of the new venue, you seem to be pretty much back in full effect.

The pics don't lie. They say you're doing pretty well.

[deltpecx]

I need to do more food binges.

Looking good dogg!

[Quelly]

so will the LIGHTWEIGHTS! lol

Thanks Kapps.Yeah finally on the mend
I wll say though..that lighting is good.
and pics do Sometimes lie..Havent u ever seen ppl look gr8 in pics..then look like shabbs in person or on stage? It COULD be me..

I need to do more food binges.

Looking good dogg!

NOOOO!
Delts..I would recover from 1 but NOT from the other..as I made 2 too many grabs at the cookie jar..now im playing the catch up game

lol that's what I meant....I must have typed middleweights cuz your looking so damn big !

lol. I was bigger last year weight wise.. an all time high of 156 and 155 respectively..That is NOT for me..Goal is to compete back at my Natural Bantam Status..that way History can Possibly be Made. lol

[boundformuscle]

Impressive photos dogg. Once again great work.

[dogg74]

Impressive photos dogg. Once again great work.

Thanks Bound

ok Now i think ev is a bit confused. i'll explain

[dogg74]

Thanks a lot everyone for the views that are set forth

As I sat here today..and kept reading responses within the last couple days at my 2 sites..I think I may have UNINTENTIONALLY confused some.

so let me set the record sr8 on a few things as for as what is going on etc

1...I did cut off-season short and had eyes on a return to the stage. Till I binged anyway.. Though things do change with me at ANY time.

2. I am NOT contest prepping for Worlds at this time.(may not even make it)

3..The week pics that are currently shown are from after the binge...THE 1ST ONE( Remember.... I said i binged 2x) ....the 2nd binge was where I REGRESSED BIG TIME...Prob knocked me out of any possible contention for shows..but im working on it

So YES..I am doing a ton better..and I got it back together After the !ST Binge...The 2nd One ...diff story....I have rebounded quite nicely though..but it has taken me WEEKS to undo the 2nd binge damage..I actually looked better before the 1st binge than present..but i am def on my way back up and will cont to keep improving and will keep it clean...for now that is. lol


So hope this clears up a few things that people may have had confusions with

[BaFtub]

What do ya binge on sir? Sweets happen to be your thing?

PS you look phucken amazing in the last set - post binge or not , incredibly well condition especially for an Offseason. This Worlds Ima ask you for a pic too , you seemed really busy backstage last year lol (PS was that tall dude with dreads a pro too? )

[deltpecx]

NOOOO!

It's too late. The binge occurred on the weekend. I was eating the ice cream and I thought; "If dogg a pro can eat ice cream than I don't see why I can't."

BTW: You look amazing in those pics! I'm really digging the plastic slipcovers.

[sammykapp]

Alright, well...after the first round...you were still looking good. And while I don't disagree that sometimes pics can not replicate reality in person....I have a feeling the pics weren't lying to a great degree. Lighting or not.

I second the digging the slipcovers. I loved that.

[VolumeFreak]

i dont understand how you can binge that much dude i mean you look awesome i would think you have great self control. im not trying to diss you i just dont get it

OH OO!..Despite what I have done.For years before BB.I was eating lots of organic foods and so forth... very little junk and couldnt gain a lb..it wasnt till I started a cut..that i started to binge and go all out

You are the BESTEST..Should i make History this year WE are gonna go on a COLDSTONE binge as a celebration..

i dont understand how you can binge that much dude i mean you look awesome i would think you have great self control. im not trying to diss you i just dont get it

I know iknow.i will say though. that when i go on a diet..it is very Hardcore.(well to me it is)..as i lock down on the grind just like my workouts.
eating like that has its pitfalls obv. and i usually regress alot in the DAYS to come. ..so i have to work EXTRA EXTRA harder to get back into shape,,,you would think that i would learn so i would not have to work that hard when prep comes around..but i have a hard head. Till I learn to control myself in its full entirety..I will never know my full potential..I am giving it a go now though.

take a look for yourself...
