[QUOTE=ajdahlheimer;1548978951]5k run on treadmill
Note: Fasted Cardio. Weight: 223.0 (BOOYAH!)[/QUOTE]
Great job on the weightloss!
Do you ever run outside? If so, what's a typical pace for you running 5k? I used to like running, but I have switched over to biking, but my 5k pace in my 30's was ~8:30 min/mile. In my 40's, it was closer to 9:00 min/mile.

I always prefer running outside to the treadmill, but in MN it isn't always an option. We got 15" of snow over the weekend for example. The loop I do outside is 3.5 miles and takes me 30-32 minutes typically. Some days are fast than others depending on how I feel, but I certainly don't have the traditional runner's body, so just try to lumber along.

Yeah, most people are used to seeing me walking around at 235-240. When I get down to 215, I get the "you look a little too skinny" comments from people, believe it or not. I couldn't imagine people's reaction if I ever got in that 200-205 range.....

Ya, I've been getting a lot of the "You have lost A LOT of weight". Just got it again now by some lady that came by my office. IDGAF, I'm starting to look like a freak shirtless :p. You would likely need to be well below 200 at 5'10" to be ripped (srs). You would lose some LBM on the way no doubt, but I just posted this in another thread. Frank Zane 3X Olympia winner (likely on mild gear) was 5'9" and under 190 likely 175-180...So that's kinda my reality check of where I will need to be in terms of nearing single digit BF%. I'm getting closer by the day, and as mentioned it is something different and pretty rewarding. I enjoy(ed) chasing numbers, but with my left shoulder being wonky and being stuck on Deads for almost a year in the low 500s it just made me decide to try something new. Its not like you can't go back to being "fluffier" if you decide you don't like looking freaky ripped....
