I guess you look alrite...............








Just kidding man you look awesome, you gunna get some ladies this summer thats for sure.

cheers for the positive replies guys

still a long way to go

Marko, like I told you in the chat room: I am going to be on you like a stamp on an envelope.


I am going to have my eye on you for the next 8 weeks:



You are going to be sick of me, if this pisses you off for the next 8 to 10 weeks, and you reach your goal, then GET PISSED!

Here is a short Snippit of a post by a person I respect, and in this post, I agree with what he is saying..

We all have lives, get busy, and have wants and desires.....GET OVER IT!


How do you think I reached my goal......Crap I get busy all the time.....I have PASSION for my goal.....I WANTED IT!

SO DO YOU!


MAKE ROOM for your goal,,,,,,,,,and do it......I DONT WANT TO HEAR IT....

YOU ARE NOT A CRY BABY!.........You are a doer!.........


I want a CLEAR and CONCISE Post on:

1. Your goals. (Again). GET Down and jiggy with it! Let hang out!

2. What is your current diet?

I dont want to hear I am 300 calories in deficit, blah, blah.......I want specifics.........AND you know what I am getting at, I am not posting to a new person. I dont care if you posted it before, I want to know what you approximated your MT Line to be, and which calorie approximator you used, etc, etc.

3. Lay out your your current training, "specifically" Understand? Your complete weight program, and ALL fitness activities.....UNDERSTAND?


You are going to do this thing........How bad do you want it?

THEN SHOW IT........But doing what "it takes".........GOT IT? THERE IS NO OTHER WAY!


I try to make people believe in themselves all the time: But, in truth, you have to believe in yourself brother.

Have the desire to believe in yourself and the passion to carry it out.


NOW ROCK!


Best wishes,

i worked out my MT as ...3141 cals per day (seems a little high)
my calorie intake is around 2300-2500 with at least another 5-700 calories burnt through cardio monday to friday.

Through the week im cutting out carbs ..not completly but significantly.

At the weekend im pretty much eating what i want (not junk) but never above my MT.

My diet is made up from=
chicken
turkey
any fish
green veg
eggs
olive oil
tomatoes
any fruit
cheese
minced beef
oats
couscous
wholewheat spagetti
wholewheat rice
chickpeas
plenty of water.
If i have to eat the same thing over a 5 day period thats ok.

Goin for a run now i`ll post my workout later

What "approximator" are you using? And, what multiplier did you decide to use? I know you probably stated this before, but restate your age, hgt, and wgt.

When you list your workout, be specific. What exactly you are doing each day of the week (inlcuding rest days). When specifying cardio, name the type, and how long it it, and how many times per week (what days of the week too)

Be a little more open with your posts, Marko. I want exercises, sets, reps, and even the approximate time it takes to complete it.

Just as the amount of calories "needed" per person is primarly (keeping things equal) determined through age, wgt, hgt, and sex, the same is true with calories burned through exercise.

I wish I could be training with you, buddy. I would put the spark in yo' ass, you could count on it. But we can do the next best thing.

I hope you had a good run.......8 to 10 weeks,,,,,,shoooot this is a short period in the whelm of life..........NOW GET ROCKEN!


Be proud MARKO! You are great! And, I am going to push you, and push you, baby! You ARE going to do this thing!

Once we get the necessary information, we are going to eyeball the calories and nutrition, and your workout, and just see if needs to be any tweaking.......maybe not, but a look see is essential nonetheless.


Best wishes,
