Papa's XXX Shots - Ready for the cut!

Cheers Welshy

Papa at your biggest of around 18stone how high did your bodyfat get? I can remember your starting point way back from posts on the DVD forums so you've come a long way.

Where do you think you want to get? I know it's an ever changing set of goalposts but i wondered what your aims were now?

I'm leaning out for the summer now and seeing how it looks.  If it looks alright on me, i'm probably going to try to stay lean but slowly bulk up to around 15-16 stone when fully cut - around arnie size.  Don't want to be massive but big.

Finding first thing in the morning before food is properly into me, my head gets a bit mushy.  Couldn't remember the door code to get into the office today

Also, when reading, i'm zoning out a bit LOL

Really flying now - weights are normal in the gym without carbs as before when I had carbs - very odd!

Oddly, eating FAR less, no weight change.  Strange.   Very bad taste in mouth tho LOL

Taste in mouth terrible, Keto level 40mg-ish but strength going up and up, oddly.   Acne on back strangely, change in diet has upset body.  Still feeling decent altho leg day is hard, strength was up and more reps done than usual!

Try washing your mouth out with bicarb of soda mate. Should get rid of the taste i think.

Acne may be down to lipid values changing.

Good to see everything is going well overall though!

Oddly weight is still the same but looking a little leaner and a little flatter.  Oh well, as long as it starts to change in terms of the body LOOK thats all I care.  Happy to be 17 stone and ripped or indeed much less if thats what it takes

Will try the bi-carb idea.

Interesting read mate ,glad your checks came clear
TBH i think you and Rack are my favs to win this thing,good luck

Thanks mate - we all have as much chance!

Good luck yourself too Brucie - as one of the nicest guys i've chated to online, you deserve it!

Cheers mate,i think your looking great already and also know how damn dogged determined you are once your onto something.

you seem to be handling the cut well considering the Dysmorphia et,which is nice to see matey

Time for cardio now - may start today, if not 1st thing tomorrow morning

if your still about mate can you pop on msn for 2 mins

Cut going well, looking more cut now, fat starting to drop (currently 16 stone 12lbs).  Diet fine, no cheats, nothing bad.  Going well really.   I have a recarb on Sunday.  Should be fun

Doing 1 hour a day cardio - fun

Do you use ketostix?

What cardio are you doing, what is your torture machine of choice?  God I find it boring.  It's the boringness of it all that gets to me. 

Yes, i'm using Ketostix  - hovering around 40mcg of whatever level its on.  Its a medium level - good because its not too much causing much muscle loss.

I'm doing x-trainer cardio.  However, i've stuck it infront of my telly and the xbox and play Fifa '09 online for 30 mins before work and 30 mins in the evening.  It is boring BUT the console makes it much more bareable.

Starting to feel a little tired, partially I think because of the diet but mainly because of the cardio - haven't done any since last summer at the latest, maybe longer.

Phew!

sounds as if its all going very well,greats stuff

Cheers - done another 30 mins of cardio today.  Have physio tonite so may have the evening off - still feeling tired - may be over doing things atm I think.
