2012 prep to return to bedford

Looking good there mate, your making some fantastic progress.  

My observations are leg seperation really starting to show through, very good calves, nice wide back, and don't seem to hold loads of fat on your lower back most people.

And this isn't a criticism but it does appear you hold fat on your abs, but that should be easily shifted.  and is just down to genetics it will come off.

Hey big fella!...my pennyworth...durrrr...I think you look great....the weight, compared to earlier pics is really dropping....and your back!...man that is wider than a wide man who's got wide disease!....you 've worked so hard to get to this stage, and all on your own too!...I'm not in the sam league as you Scrubby but I do train on my own aswell and it can be a lonely palce sometimes....so all the more guts you are showing for that.....you're doing brilliantly!..

YAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!...

oh! and I dunno what those muscles are that are sticking out just on the inside of your knee but they look impressive!...errrrm...oh foook!  I wish I knew stuff...lolol.....errrm...they're part of the 4 quad muscles right?...one of them...phew....take care big fella...

Looking good dude, can certainly see the progress being made

how long left to go scrubby, great progress mate really like yhe side shoot of your waist shows how much tighter it is getting, back is far your strong point now more detail is coming and you can see the thickness even in the lower back, great seperation in the quads and good calves, when the BF drops more off the stomach going to look really good keep plugging away. how do the triceps look havent seen a shot of them yet.

Top side shot looks good to me mate, bit of ribage coming in there, looking good.

Shape's coming in well mate.  Hard work will make it happen!

Hey there Scrubby, hope you're ok....either working really hard or you've flushed yourself down the loo all the way to Oz .......but I know you wouldn't fit down the loo with the size of back you have!!!..you'd just get stuck!.....gunite big fella.... :)

Morning...just on my morning zoom and not leaving you out....hope you're ok...and the knee isn't playing you up.......have a good weekend big fella and hope the faaaaaaaaamerleeeeee are ok too.....  :)

No i am still here busting my balls at work, energy levels have taken a real nose dive, got in from training last night cooked my tea and my chicken for today, made my salads, did the washing up, sat down at 9oclock looked at the laptop and just couldnt be arsed to turn it on, had my last meal at 10 to 10 just so i could get into be ten minutes early, i normally beat the alarm but this morning it went off and i thought i was dreaming, didnt want to get out of bed, my leg feel very heavy today finished couple of hours early today as i got a heap of errands to do and need to shop, then off to the gym,
Last nights training was chest and bicepts, think i got the hang of my new routine had a massive pump on the chest lasted all of 15min, :-( got good pump on the bicepts, strength has started to take a nose dive or it was last night, chest is and has been tight all day today shoulders and hams to do tonight then weekend off :-) just the morning cardio to do then decisions decisions what to have for a cheat meal, i dont want to go all out as its bloody hard work shifting this fat i dont want to add to it so i think the meal will be clean but lots off well when i say lots i mean untill i am full these days thats not much more than what my little lad eats.
 
Titch84 i will sort a couple of shots of triceps over the week end,

Right training last night was delts hams and calfs, training went very well, energy levels fell out of bed, very tired at weigh in i went 16 st 13lbs so thats a loss of 2lbs on my weight from last week and a loss of 4lbs from after my cheat meal.So since i started al this i have now lost 26lbs and look a whole lot better for it, i am borderline skinny,size 0 here we come !!!! Its been a while since i last went under 17 st, cardio done this morning lucky for me it stopped raining will be chilling now till monday morning cheat meal will be a couple of home made lean beef mince burgers and a couple of nice roll with some relish, maybe a scoop or two of ice cream,  

ICE CREAM...BRING IT ON LOL Love the stuff, good on you mate your going great, enjoy your chill!

Looking good !   You've lost 26Lbs?  that's fab, no really fab.  Thanks for posting the pics - You really are doing well and for those who do not post it will give them some encouragement!  Great back and legs

Sorry I didn't get time to chat to you more at Porstmouth but NG was hogging you and it was my first time I had ventured out on my own to a show (I know very grown up and brave!)  Keep us updated we need info!

Hi Scrubby, hope you're weekend is going well.....I didn't mean to hog you at all the show...in fact I did go and sit by myself for a long time cos I didn't want to impose myself on anyone....soz!......durrrrrr..

When I go to Bognor I'm gonna go in disguise and only wear my neon pink t-shirt instead of the one with flashing lights and bells around the bottom, ya know...quiet like!....lol....

Burgers and ice cream hey?...mmmmmmm.....not together tho' cos your burgers would go cold....

Enjoy the rest with your family big fella....  :)

I'm on another zoom and just can't leave you out even if you're chilling somewhere...so hello, and gunite....lol

hi you how you doing thanks for poping in i am so board, yesterday took my little lad for a drive in my van as i just couldnt sit in all day other half at work, no cardio this morning still got up early and been restless all day took the little lad to the otter and owl center for something to do,he got board after an hour so we came home, tried to watch avatar, but just could not sit still i am so board and in need of a gym fix just to get out of the house, i just feel so guilty for sitting doing nothing, roll on tomorrow cardio in the morning and training in morning as other half is working a late, it was cheat meal last night didnt really cheat just ate more food than normal going to train so hard then fall asleep and just eat and sleep for the rest of the day, roll on tuesday then i can get back to work.
its been low carb day today just 30g oats in shake and 50g wholewheat brown pasta for my tea. i just feel so restless  

Morning cardio done smoothy drank just waiting for the gym to open at 9am then it legs quads and calf today, i wont be doing my cardio after training as time will be tight but i will do it tonight when the other half get in from work so its still getting done. I hate bank holidays everyone opens late cant even go shopping as the asda doing sunday hours. what an exciting life i lead, washing up all done washing in the machine, house been straighened out, all toys packed away ready for them to be got out and dumped all over the floor for another day. now i can understand why stay at home mums get fat eating nice food is the only high thats avaliable in the day what a boring life they lead just like a drone.

Good work mate!

Quads taking shape very nicely and that back is sick!

Well done!

legs done this morning, very good work out the gym was empty so just done things in my own time, spoke to another guy thats doing the same show as me on my way out of the gym, so i wont be there on my own so to speak, think hes doing first timers, but i am not sure as he said he did it last year ???? had a quick 9min seasion in the fly killer, me being fair skinned i cant do any longer or i burn like toast. came home a fell asleep for an hour and a half, thank goodness for dvds kept the little lad quiet, will be going out to do my other cardio seasion when the other half get in from work. started to get comments from the other gym users now, they seam to be quit intrested in what i am doing and most say they couldnt do the diet and the early morning cardio, If only they knew the half of it, Its a whole new ball game from just going to the gym and lifting some weight and drinking the odd protein shake, not untill you do a prep do or can you understand how much of a commitment it is, to say its a life style thing is an understatement by a long way. but if you are reading this and have never done a prep donot let it put you off, it will change the whole world for you, I have never looked as lean as i do and i have weeks to go and i am well excited to think how good i will look come comp day,once you get over the body weight thing its a lot easer to accept just concentrate on condition.
