Picked up regular cardio for 1st time, continued heavy, STRICT, weight trainingMonths 1 and 2Meal 1...10 egg whites/ 1/2 cup oatmealMeal 2...2 turkey burgers/ brocolliMeal 3...shakeMeal 4...10 oz. chix breast/ 1/2 cup oatmealmeal 5...shakeMeal 6...10 oz. chix/brocolliCardio daily 30 minutes...eliptical/inclined treadmill high intense after weight training************geeeesh...look good tho doughmes Month 3Meal 1...6 egg whites/3 yolksMeal 2...shakeMeal 3...2 turkey burger/ 1/2 cup oatmealMeal 3...shakeMeal 4...shakeMeal 5...10 oz chix/ green beans2 cardio sessions..30 min. each...a.m. cardio before eating/post weight trainingMonth 4Meal 1...6 egg whites/ 1 yolkMeal 2...shakeMeal 3...1 turkey burger/ 1/4 cup oatmeal(somedays 0 carbs!!)Meal 4...shakeMeal 5...10 oz. chix/green beansI staggered my oatmeal carb throughout the week...a lot of very, very low days followed by a carb up day(still only 1/2 cup)Cardio...two 30 min sessions...am before first meal...and after weight trainingAt this point I was ready for the show and getting ready to take pics.....then, outta NOWHERE the whole fuckin contest is "postponed"!!!!! I go BALLISTIC!!!! I continue month 5 the same as month 4 concerning diet/cardio...Very low carbs at the end!!!! DAMN!!
I mixed up the carbs everyday...I would go 3 days straight on 25g, then bump it up to maybe 70g...one week, I went all week with maybe 100g, then I ate about 300g for last meal of the night on day 7...I really juggled them...up/down/zero...you name it! For the most part, I tried to go 3 days straight with hardly any complex..only fibrous from brocolli, asparagus, etc....then on 4th or 5th day have a cup of oatmeal. I felt pretty lousy most of the time, but I still trained my ass off....cut my weight training down to 40 min. high intense/supersetting for last 2 months or so.
Hmmm, this looks very familiar Dov. Very familiar.
Yeah, Mike was nice enough to help me out with a few questions
btw...you did good.
Thank you....so have you and Mike...
Thanks Dov.
I only PM'd one person on the forum for a little advice...that was Mike. I followed his progression "Road to compete" and was really inspired. Thanks to both of you...again!
Pretty average cutting diet there. Dov made a great transformation and deserved his 1st place, if Aquillies is DQed of course.
