I also have your balls if I need to come and get it!


Seriously though, if you get anywhere near 200kg by the summer it'll be awesome. Technically it should be possible, assuming a max of around 175kg.

Well I was on track for 190ish by new year so I should be able to get it easy as long as recovery goes ok :(
 
Had my "induction" at the gym which was a formality check around.

The guy took me around all the machines and was extolling the virtues of the leg press for working the biggest muscles...



Also, could someone aware me on the crosstrainer thingy. The one which has the arms as well which is an alternative to the treadmill. It seems a lot easier on the joints, but there must be a reason why no one uses those ones but use the treadmills.


Finally, treadmills or rowing machine?

Crosstrainers are always full at my place.
 
So got a stag do tonight, havent touched drink in months so will be interesting. dont want it to affect my start of cycle 2 on monday.
 
I survived :)

Going to mix things up with my diet this week and try some new things. I do this from time to time and see how I feel about certain meals. If something works really well I refresh my normal weekly diet routine.

I will post details of the diet tomorrow.
 
OK so instead of my pink porridge this morning, it's a more hearty option.

2 eggs, 1 bacon, 1 slice wholemeal and a glass of OJ.

Good job I'm off creatine now. Creatine + drink = really bad hangover!

I never actually related the two, definetly going to look into this.

Do you find your water retention is crazy? I look like a chipmunk the amount my cheeks puff up when deep into a crea cycle!

It's benefits are always noticable down the gym/whilst working out though, love it as a supplement.

Currently in beast mode with my training/diet too, best of luck in your endeavours, LiE!

Can't say I notice water retention, if it does occur it's very subtle that I can't spot it.

As you know creatine likes lots of water, and drinking dehydrates you so the 2 don't go well :p

Some of these will be pretty tough to hit, but that's probably due to getting some good numbers in cycle 1.

Not had a shake today nor milk, feels weird, FF would be proud :)
 
You really are disciplined with your meals, fair play. You hitting the 0.5lb/week?

I eat like a horse and train like a horse, simple as that for me :p

Although my BF is higher than it was this time last year by about 2%, bad times, bad times! But the chocolate bars were worth it ;) lol
