Thanks War Horse-good luck with the diet,mate! Do you ever have planned cheat meals? I usually have one a week the day before training legs-usually a pizza,indian or general junk food.

Thanks for the positive comments.Had a chat with some friends yesterday who suggested I need to lose 8-10 lbs to be in decent shape and about 14 lbs to be really shredded.Just going to do some cardio

Latest pics.Looking a bit watery as had last cheat meal yesterday-donner meat pizza and chips(fries

) .Put on 3 pounds overnight but that will be gone tommorrow.Main show in 5 weeks but doing a warm up show next sunday.

jonno gb · « **Reply #33 on:** July 19, 2007, 02:45:12 AM »

Just started carbing up today for sunday's show.Been on 50 g of carbs for the last 3 days but will do 400 g today,300 g tommorrow and possibly 200 g on saturday depending on how I look.Also drinking 8 ltrs of water a day which I will cut about 4 pm on saturday.Really looking forward to it now.I won't be at my very best but my upper body is bang on,quads not bad just hams and glutes lagging a little.This is just a warm up show for my main target,the NPA Heart of England,on 19th August.
Also going to have a day off the diet on monday-looking forward to a full English breakfast

Thanks! Will do,Windor-unless I look crap,lol.

Well the shows been and gone and I placed terribly-5th out of 5 in a very strong class.I know it was only a warm up show but I was disappointed on the day.Took a lot of positives out of it though.Had a chat with the judges and I need to be more ripped-I was 4-6 lbs off-to stand out in the line up.They thought I had added upper body mass since my last show in 2005 but did not show the same condition particularly in the lower body.I have taken this on board and will endeavour to be shredded for my next show on 19th August-I'm not bothered where I place as long as I come in really ripped.Was up at 7 am this morning for 40 minutes power walking and plan to drop carbs to 100 g a day(after early morning cardio and after training only) except on leg day and chest/back day when I will up it to 200g.
Will post some photos when they come through as a reminder to myself how I must never look again.

Jonno. 5th place is one i know all too well myself. don't let it get you down mate. Onwards and upwards!

Hey there Jonno, just wanted to say what a great little read this thread was. Shows what the results of hard work and diet can do. Too bad about your placing mate. Even if you didn't like your condition on the day, I think you looked great in the last pic you posted, must have been a strong field. Keep it up mate

.

jonno gb · « **Reply #45 on:** August 03, 2007, 01:11:26 PM »

Thanks,Honour.i appreaciate that,mate.Still haven't got any pics though

Lookin' great jonno....proof positive that naturals can make good gains. Your shoulders look great in the one pic...nice and striated.

jonno gb · « **Reply #47 on:** August 03, 2007, 02:55:15 PM »

Thanks,Coltrane.Looking forward to redeeming myself at the Heart of England show.

well you obviously know what your doing. interestinf you keep the carbs so high.

I was gonna say he was going low with carbs.

The recommended carb-fat-protein energy percentage ratio is somewhere around 50/30/20.

And that is if you're eating high protein.

Recommended by sports scientists, not bodybuilders, that is.

jonno gb · « **Reply #49 on:** August 03, 2007, 10:55:31 PM »

Down to 100 g of carbs 5 days a week now with 200 g on the other two(protein around 220 g).Seems to be working but I do feel very tired as the day goes on.No point in moaning about it,though,cos no-one is making me do it and I could quit anytime I wanted.
