8 week progress pic! Stoked! What you think?
This was after 8 weeks of eating right, 5 days a week in the gym, and basic supplements and vitamins. I'm proud of myself so far and this picture motivates me every day!

The first picture is from before I changed my diet and started lifting and the picture beside it is after 8 weeks. I added a shot of me at week 10 also. The latter was last week.Originally Posted by CytoRoc

Great progress in such a small time frame!
Cut 1 more month, go on an indefinite lean bulk and profit!

Wow.. uncool comment.Originally Posted by CytoRoc
Results are great op. You cut your gut out totally. You are probably ready for a bulk (if you want to increase muscle mass next).You want to know how I did it? This is how I did it: I never saved anything for the swim back.

Thank you! Honestly I have been trying to bulk the whole time. I think the change to clean eating got rid of the gut...and 4 weeks of cardio. My muscles have really started to swell and it feels great! I notice it mostly in the little things like balance in the shower or being able to jog up our stairs with the groceries. If I can keep my stubborn appetite up I'm pretty sure ill bulk up nicely. I'm hooked!Originally Posted by arkadium

solid progress dude. keep with it, and even if progress slows after awhile, don't give up. those last few lbs. always seem to be the hardest.

Wow you are extremely lucky then, you must not know your caloric maintenance because by the looks of things you've been burning more calories than you've been consuming (you've been cutting). You can't trim fat and bulk at the same time.Originally Posted by ssilk12001

Caloric maintenance should be around 2700 but I wasn't counting right at first. I was taking in about 3000 but I wasn't factoring in the lifting and the cardio. Rookie mistake I know. I was burning a lot! Now that I have a couple good calorie counting tools I know that I was burning about 10-20% of my intake per day and that's why I was cutting. I'm going to keep it like that until the end of this college term (or another month) and then start bulking during spring break. I'll keep the bulk slow at first because ill be in the gym less until next term and then I can go full on bulk mode.Originally Posted by arkadium
(Dumb question: what is "rep power" and why is mine at -1400? Cause I'm a noob?)
