Hey there cool forum. I shouldve registered here ages ago.

Inc life story

I started life as an obese kid ....till I had enough of it. On that note I decided something needed to be done about that. I then whittled myself down to a stick. My technique...water 4-6 hours of kickboxing 5 days a week and little food. I wish I had of know about macro nutrients then....

I'm now on the protien n creatine pushing for a lean 75kg (currently a slightly wobbly 78)

I'm into muay thai and martial arts, and more recently body-building and general track and field performance. I have taken a break from pure combat training to pursue some mass and strength. Which in the last year has earned me 15kg (not all muscle, im trimming down now to see if what I gained was worth the effort, its looking like 5-10 kg if i can get the fat off without loosing muscle and im not sure how the fluids will effect my weight) which is better than nothing, but I'm still after more. I gotta admit after laughing at body-builders for being large, inefficient and what I used to think was an easy way of fitness....I now have a whole new way of viewing what they do. Who would've known it is such a day in day out grind! After stepping in their shoes I understand why it drives them, the feeling of simply pushing pulling and squeezing till you cant any more is great. The grind I refer to is very linear but the learning curve and science behind the sport is amazing. All this time I thought they just picked things up and put them down again T_T ...i was wrong. So now I am admittedly addicted to the game, and its a core part of my weekly fitness and further more my day to day life.

I've been experimenting with some bodybuilding sups to see what works and what doesn't, and also meeting some experienced people and getting their take on things. It's a tough road this bodybuilding lifestyle, theres a lot of bullshit pie to cut through before you get some sound info.

Heres what ive used to date

WPC WPI

Creatine mono and ester

Glutamine

carnitine

thermos

tribulus

multivits

vanadyl

Hey Chemo. A rather slow welcome, but better late than never, eh?! (I was away for the long weekend, and it looks like everyone else was in holiday mode too).

Anyway, it's good to have you here.

WATTTTOOOOHH!!

yeah pretty much, mainly heaps of bag work and exercises like burpies, crunches press ups. It was over school holidays like 6 years ago.. and i had no idea what i was doing, pretty much stripped all my muscle :S got thin though lol

wish i knew what i was doing ay, was pretty dangerous what i was doing :|

that was light: frowned upon = illegal , im referring to steroids being frowned upon by everyone apart from those who use it.

cheers all loving the site so far :3
