They had me doing the step mill or the treadmill with high incline....it was mainly to get my heart rate up. They started me out at 30 minutes cardio to 45 minutes then as contest date approached 1 hour of cardio. Started out at 5 days a week then eventually led to 7 days a week.

They monitored my diet and saw me weekly.  There plan isnt supposed to have any cheat meals but there were times when I did fail and did end up cheating. It was then when they would see me and evauate me and know that somehow I was fucking up on the diet. So they would revamp the plan and change what I should be eating. Like they would change what kind of carbs I should b eating or increasing my cardio or my portion sizes for my meals...I think it was all down to a science. It did help that they were seeing me once a week to evaluate me....

I did cheat... Example...Olympia weekend went to a buffet. But the weird part was, my metabolism already kick started and the diet plan they had me on was clean food all the way so when I did cheat, my body utilized whatever I ate...I cant really begin to explain it..Im not a nutritionist.

But I am so glad I did this....

you should post their names on here as they clearly know their shit.

Oh yeah...someone please explain this to me....

At the show I weighed in at 192 pounds...I was dehydrated....

After the show.... pigged out at cheesecake factory and this whole week Ive been pigging out on everything that I want to eat. Everything flattenned out...no more cuts, I am bloated as hell. My abs are gone, striations are gone, my ankles have swelled up and legs look freakin waterlogged and huge....

Its just been a week out of my contest...tomorrow will be a week. I weighed myself and I am 240 fuckin pounds now! Is it just the sodium, water?  it cant be fat because how can someone put fat on in a week?

People warned me about this but what the fuck!!! How can I gain almost 50 pounds in a week?!!!! I hope this isnt permanant!!!

don't pig out too much . . . you're body will try to hang on to everything if it's been "starved" for a while.

The sodium and even the sugar will make you hold water, but 50lbs is extreme.

  Well done, great transformation.
  Good structure.

  Considering how you looked before dieting and
  then gaining 50lbs in 1week.
  My girl is asking if you have some eating disorder?

It's normal. I've had similar gains in about 9 days. almost 20lb is just water...

all water bro, just watch the sodium. Drink lots of water, its a natrual diuretic. You dont want your blood pressure getting too high with all that xtra fluid in your body.

But great transformation bro. I dont know if you've said this or not, but how did u do in the contest???

That's an incredible transformation. Especially encouraging to see what can happen in just a few months.

Some binging is normal, but get back on track to stabilize the changes.

You looked the best up there man. Great job. Everyone looks very soft though except for you in that first pic. What did you end up placing?

well if you stop doing cardio alltogether aswell as pigging out ofcourse you are going to gain alot of weight. 'cake on cake' is an expression we use in swe. (didnt sound good in english :D )

but like said alot of it is water weight as you will bind more water when glycogen levels are high.

you looked great by the way, especially for a natty. outstanding first competition.

For the overweight people..there is hope ;)

I just checked out the before and after pics of me preparing for this contest! Man, in my mind back then, I didnt think I was fat at all but that picture doesnt lie! I must have been very delusional thinking I was in great shape back then!! LOL

I hired some great dieticians/nutritionists who have competed in figure/bodybuilding shows who put me on a plan!! It really transformed me! I also had an amazing training partner as well! Thank you Sean!!!

I started the plan sometime in August at a bodyweight of 259 pounds and and then competed on Nov 3rd at 192 pounds so it was an incredible transformation! And for you non believers, I did this all without clen or any anabolics. I know many of you are going to doubt me when I say this. I did take fat burners such as venom and I did do a lot of cardio. **Diet and training are the keys!

It wasnt easy but I did it....

If you were to tell me months ago that I would have been contest ready in a matter of weeks and showed me before and after pictures of the person I would become, I would have thought you were insane. But Im living proof that this is real.

I have to say that Mike Arvilla started this spark in me when I saw his transformation! He and someone else inspired me to do this! Thank you Mike Arvilla!

I know Im going to get ripped apart for posting up my before and after pics but I just want to show that if there is a will, there is a way and that there is hope for anyone who wants to better themselves. Hopefully it will inspire Ron or anyone else to get in better shape and then one day compete!


Great transformation.....good job, you look great!!

HOLY SHIT!!   :o

Nice job on the rebound.   ;D

Drink lots of water, get back into the gym, and try to eat a little better, you will balance out in a week or two.
