Jim's 2010 shape up (Final pics page 3)

Hi Folks,
 
My original plan was to enter this comp with view to cutting in preparation for a half marathon on Feb 21st. Unfortunately i injured my back squatting a couple of weeks ago, so DLs/squats/running are out of the question for now. So i thought sod it, i may as well put on some upper body mass for a couple of months!

Good size there, best of luck!

Good luck mate

All the best

Thanks guys!

Bit of sabotage on Day 1. My girlfriend made Mocha Cake - and i've got to finish it by the end of the week. Im just glad im not cutting! Otherwise solid diet today, except a bit low on carbs (due to work and poor choice of lunch!).

On the plus side the back feels alot better. May start training legs again in about a weeks time.

Looking good Jim - good luck

Looking solid bud - from your pics I'd have guessed a fair bit more than 92k 

Best of luck mate

Good luck in the SUC!

Back is taking ages to heal - its been well over 2 weeks now. No cardio at all

It was healing but then i aggravated it again when makng snowmen. Sitting/standing is painful, bending over is a complete no-no. Im in pain constantly. As soon as it improves im going to make sure i see an osteopath, and stretch everyday.

Despite contemplating pulling out of the SUC, i think my lack of cardio means im having to be more strict with my diet. Hopefully it will also mean a more anabolic status for building my upper body up, so i will persist for now.

My only cardio is walking to and from work - over 6 miles, appx 1 hour 30 mins total per day.

This is also the first week i have not drank any alcohol. I am by no means a heavy drinker, but i do tend to drink everyday. The only booze i have in the house at the moment is a bottle of Cachaca (sp?) and Tuaca. The plan is a drink on my GF's birthday, otherwise stay clean.

Its also the first week i have not had any junk food or big binges ( i tend to eat massive portions, and then be bloated for a few days afterwards). Being a chocoholic i usually have some in the flat, my only chocolate treat available is choc flavoured nesquick which i have occasionally.

So despite the back, things are looking positive.
