Im always curious to whats behind the keyboard and more so when its like this and a Fitness and weight training discussion part.
Always intresteing to see who is behind what they post.
So get some pics up guys and let us know what your Goals are in the Gym.
Ill start with me.
Most of you have prob read my main story:https://passionford.com/forum/fitnes...-my-story.html
I am Currently training 7 Days per week, 5 of them are Twice Per day and Preparing Myself to Compete on March/May this year.
If anything i am well ahead of the Game this time and want to try and keep it that way.
Problem last time round i tried to compete ws plain and simple, i wasnt carrying enough size before the diet and i couldnt shift the bodyfat fast enough (not enough cardio)
This time round I am loving cardio and 40mins in the morning i actually enjoy.
The Last 3 weeks ive noticed HUGE Differences in myself and so much people are mentioning it too.
Im carrying alot more size than i was last year so hopefully i should keep a decent size when the bodyfat starts to drop.
At the moment im loosing a steady 3lbs Per week.
Bloody Hard work, but right now There is Nothing else more i want than Standing on that Stage.
Ive had my ups and downs but if i can make it on Stage in March, i will be so Happy.
15 Weeks is a long way away so i expect ALOT of changes.
Diet Only begun This week,so im pretty Fat in these pics lol
Pics are poor and taken first thing in the morning and not after a workout so pretty flat, but you get the idea, Posing and sorting my routine is going to be an even bigger challenge and needs alot of work.
Stats currently are: 14stone 10lbs, Waist 32", Biceps 17 1/2", Chest 46", Calfs 19"

Not sure how much weight I want to lose in stone, but I want to trim right down and start building muscle.
Joining gym wednesday - in the mean time been doing weights in my room.
Diet is sorted - 5/6 meals a day (chicken, couscous, tuna, rice, wholemeal pitta,eggs etc), and lots of water.

Ok, So im 6ft and at the start aprox 9 stone, currently i weigh 11 stone but im still very un happy with my size so will have to start looking up upping my tactics but for now this is me 2 years ago.
![](https://img.photobucket.com/albums/v319/chr1s16v/dudewheresmycar.jpg)
lanky 9stone lad no muscle at all
this me in the last few months, happy with how far i've come but want to go alot further and really increase my size which im struggling massively with, seem to have hit a wall at 11 stone i just cant pass.
![](https://img.photobucket.com/albums/v319/chr1s16v/093.jpg)
![](https://img.photobucket.com/albums/v319/chr1s16v/094.jpg)
I feel i could achieve alot more and might possibly look at trying another gym as mine doesn't have many people that are interested in muscle building but i will keep cracking on and hopefully something will change so i can continue to grow.
My aim is 13/14 stone of useable muscle so i dont lose much speed or stamina.
So thats me and my story
Chris

Yea i had considered that and have increased my protein as well as my main diet to push things along but currently its not working will give it a few more weeks before i start looking at other options. i think alot of the issue is at the gym so going to try and train when there aren't so many cardio freaks around!

The diet is key. I was exactly the same as you, 6ft 2 9stone, now 5 years later I`m 15 stone and counting. My diet is at leat 3 times what I would have ate at 9 stone. Diet, diet, diet, everything else is second to diet.

8 weeks ago;
![](http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y111/Cold0/progress/1%20year/17122009507.jpg)
Currently looking like this however;
![](http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y111/Cold0/20012010546.jpg)
![](http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y111/Cold0/11012010543-2.jpg)
This arm has really been a pain in the tits, feel like all my good work in the last 6months in terms of muscle mass and strength is instantly wasted.
Ideally be out of cast in march sometime, until then im a cardio monster again, want to drop another 8-12kg then start 'rehab' - get the strength up and basically start all over again, probably training 5x5 with the goal of competing in a powerlifting comp.
Right now though its back to 90mins cardio a day, try shed as much fat as possible. Keeping protein high at around 300g a day, high fats and less than 90g carbs.

![](http://i49.tinypic.com/2jccw12.jpg)
I started the gym end of october, i weighed 11 stone, i told my self i wanted to be 12 stone then bulk up, i went on my weight gain and got to my 12 stone which i have been since about december, now i have replaced my weight gain for protien which is making hell of a difference, all i need to do is keep it up!

My goal is to be single digit bodyfat by years end. Currently 4 weeks in and down to 18% from 23%.
Currently trying to tweak the diet to maintain muscle mass whilst losing bodyfat. I'm training hard and getting stronger so all good at the moment.

My current goal although maybe slightly ambitious is to be 250lbs cut. I am currently 248-249lbs odd but I am carrying too much fat. I would like to keep bulking for a few months then introduce some cardio to shed some fat. I don't want to be cut right up like some of you guys but just trimmed down so I have abs again. I think they are still there.

I have only been deadlifting for a few months now as I have previously had a very weak lower back and I am only lifting 140Kgs for 3 sets of 8-10 reps. There must be something wrong with me as I am always impressed by the weights some of you guys seem to lift on deads. How many reps you doing it for? Is it just a maximum? I am very cautious of trying for a one rep max on Deads as its so easy to lose form and injure yourself. I have never tried a one rep max.

Yeah somone else told me ill hit a wall, i hope i dont, i want to be benching 120kg soon ![Surprised](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/bigcry.gif)
Deadlifting i do -
70kg x 8 - warm up
130kg x 8
140kg x 6 and do 2 - 3 sets of these, might step it up abit and rep 150kg tonight, all depends how i am feeling tbh, deadlifting really takes it out of me!
and if im feeling strong ill go for a big pull (170kg +) i dont train for high weight really, just bulking out!
There was a guy pulling 240kg ish the other week, trying so hard he passed out after, didnt quite pull it up!
There is so much technique in deadlifting, its the most demarnding excersize there is i think, its all about the breathing and concentration! Its strange, i only started the gym in November to get a bit fitter and actually have some musle on my body, its to easy to get carried away![Surprised](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/bigcry.gif)
Also need to get back into squating, i do hate it though but my legs are getting so skinny, they have a new leg press but it isnt quite the same as a squat!
My poor old body is aching like fuck from mondays work out![Surprised](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/bigcry.gif)
P.s i am on some protien which is the tits, i couldnt recomend a better one tbh really see and feel the difference with this one, and its not badly priced either!
http://www.usn.co.uk/product/Best-Se...in--2.28kg-/33
I got it for alot cheaper than that though, think i paid just over Ł30

Thats some impressive progress mate but be prepared for it to slow up. The initial 6 months or so of training you come along leaps and bounds but your body will hit a wall whereby its hard to improve for the next 6 months or so imo. Hopefully you have the skills to overcome that plateau, unlike I did.
I have only been deadlifting for a few months now as I have previously had a very weak lower back and I am only lifting 140Kgs for 3 sets of 8-10 reps. There must be something wrong with me as I am always impressed by the weights some of you guys seem to lift on deads. How many reps you doing it for? Is it just a maximum?

I tried for squats last night as Wed is leg night. I do them most weeks but have found lately that the cold weather (no heating on my gym so its damp and cold) really plays on my knees. They feel like the caps are going to explode, even on warm ups or with no weight!
Gave squats the swerve last night and done 45 degree presses instead as they don't feel as bad on the knees.
Is it the cold or is it my old age?? Anyone else get this??

the cold can be a bit of a c....t, for joints, and age [old] will cause problems too, but haveing said there are alot of 40/50 plus year olds in fairly good shape... depends what the term old means....

I'm in Oz so have the opposite problem of it being too hot here. I feel my lower back after squatting and the knees have always been a bit 'creaky' but it doesn't stop me doing anyhting. I have had lower back strain in the past and thankfully rest sorted it out but it was a wake up call, hence taking things steadily now.

My 40th next week. My body aches more and more, recovery time seems to increase as well. My biggest problem is terrible pain on the inside of both elbow joints. Bicep curling is agony.
I think about giving it all up and becoming a proper fat middle aged dad

After a few days off though, I think I look like shite so drag my ass back to the gym. I train alone ( I am not a big fella by any means), and struggle to increase my weights, I am coasting on the legendary plateau and need some kind of kick up the ass.

I get a pain over mt left inner elbow too. But mines from a tri popping whilst doing skull crushers. This is the second time I've had it go and the first took about 8 months to feel better.
I don't know if I will ever give up as i enjoy it but the older I get the less worried I am about missing a session or two. I guess I m more maintaining than building although I am having a stage of pushing myself at the moment.![Grin](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)
You should put up your location, you never know there may be someone else on here looking for a partner in your area or someone you can join in with? Can't hurt.
