V8DAN Posted August 16, 2016 Report Share Posted August 16, 2016 thought id try start one of these treads if i stick to it or not who knows, did a bulk last summer clean food but too much too fast and not so good with meal timing .Peak weight was 104kgs hella strong (for a body builder) and looked good in a shirt came back to nz and the dietrition told me off was 20% bf at 96 or 98kgs i think, so jumped into a cut phase , 7 weeks in 7% drop in bf ,am now down to 90.7kgs didnt lose any lean mass in fact made minor gains ,life goal is to live in the 100s so back into gaining the size minus the fat and i have Christmas in mind as the goal date to get there (wish me luck) next measure up is friday or saturday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you being pretty strict about following it? mmm my diet well i go through 1.4kgs of chicken breast every day at the moment ,and i have 10 meals a day some are liquid meals like my 1+1/2 scoop whey+3 egg white shake pre and again post gym ,also lots of kumara and broccoli and beetroot im fairly strict with it one cheat meal a week although it is my birthday today and i fly to aus on saturday to start back with the firefighting so this week is bound to not be the best, and once i back at work im probably 90% perfect as sometimes i dont get to choose my dinner ,or if its going off i might not get to choose what i eat for 2 weeks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pseudonym Posted August 31, 2016 Report Share Posted August 31, 2016 Man, that's a shitload of food! Is it the extra cardio from firefighting that makes this necessary? So we've got some perspective, are you natty, enhanced, or no comment? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
