Hey guys, STTF homey here, thought I'd give a shout over here.
Over the last 4 months or so, I basically just cut calories to around 1000/day, which I know isn't healthy. I was absolutely destitute, though, and that is literally all I could even afford to eat. So being poor = good diet I guess. The only exercise I had at this time was skateboarding regularly (reasonable cardio).
About 3 weeks ago I started working at LA Fitness here in Dallas. I've been hitting it hard, and working with personal trainers there, who have helped my routine out immensely. I still need to lose another ~10 lbs of body fat, but my current focus is to accelerate muscle gains. I've already gained a few pounds of lean mass, and I'm feeling awesome. Now that I have money, I'm eating much better as well.
This is me near my peak weight of over 235 lbs, roughly 6 months ago:
This is me now, at 194:
As you can see, I'm already beginning to get a little definition in my shoulders, chest, and abs. I want to bulk up my chest, shoulders, arms, and traps a decent amount, and continue to cut fat to increase ab definition. I don't want to get completely jacked, but I do want girls to be really interested in having intercourse with me. My goal is something close to
Daniel Craig in Casino Royale.
I've been doing all of this all-natural, but this week I started on Methyl-vol (superdrol clone from what I've read) to boost muscle gains, and Rapid-Fire (similar to lypodrene) to help keep cutting fat. I'm making sure to properly cycle up and down on both, for about 4-5 weeks, after which I'll return to and remain all-natural.
Any questions, comments, tips would be appreciated.
