'We knocked the bastard off'
-
[quote name='ACT Crusader'][quote name='MN5'][quote name='BartMan']Still going well, Eating easy now, but certainly not a bulk up period, leaning off like lightning, down to [b]91.5kg.[/b]<br />
<br />
Enjoying it too, which has got to be good...!![/quote]<br />
<br />
What have you been eating mainly Bartman ie what protein rich foods do you suggest ? thats a big drop in weight for just a week or so ![/quote]<br />
<br />
Hey MN5, get on to the Almonds (kernals) bro. Eat them 3 times a day. They are the highest protein nut and they do things to help the cravings.<br />
<br />
Nothing beats fruit and vegies as well. Get into the 3 or 4 bean mixes (but without all the added sauces, oils etc)[/quote]<br />
<br />
Yeah good thinking, I do love almonds ( and I suppose I can't justify having bacon and eggs every morning sadly, luckily there usually isn't time in the morning ! ) I always try and knock off a couple of carrots and apples a day as well... -
Photos as promised - 2 weeeks and 2 days into eating / training programme.<br />
Not the greatest shots - steamed up bathroom and funny angles giving body funny shapes!<br />

Great work Bart I can't really say anything about the photos without sounding dodgy so all I'll request is maybe a nice double guns pose next time <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/invision/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' />

went in and weiughed in and measured in today, will get results sent through by our PT - Mrs bartMan has shed 3kg, and I have shed 4kg from our first weight in. Also huge losses in measurements - I think I have lost 5cm in waist or something, which I have noted, as my belt keeps getting bigger and bigger on me!
-
mate, at this weight I am playing anywhere I bloody want!! I am back to openside flanker weight - althoguh I was 20 years old when playing club rugby with a seven on my back - just after I last did a body building competition actually...<br />
<br />
But I think prop would be nice...<br />
<br />
Weighed in this morning at 89.8kg after leg workout. -
Send that diet fella, the weights shreading off ya
-
[quote name='BartMan']another week of training and eating like a rabbit who likes steak and chicken...<br />
<br />
Leg workout again today, and weight in 88.5kg.<br />
<br />
I think Donsteppa, that I might play number eight... xzxsarcastic[/quote]<br />
<br />
What happened to Mr. I'd never ever be that light, I'd just be a skeleton? <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/invision/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' /> -
Don's, it's happened, I'm a skeleton xzxshok <br />
<br />
Energy is not to bad, all the intake is accounted for, all the outgoings are accounted for. The mrs horse riding is even taken into account when out PT does the eating plans.<br />
<br />
To do it properly, you would have to have an appointment with her and then she would set you up with a training plan, and the eating to go with it. Only cost $40, and then a monthly visit is $20 where she re measures, adjusts programme and food and all that.<br />
<br />
So at the moment it is four days of weights, wednesday off, and weekends off. I am meant to row 3 x 20 minutes a week, but because the MRs does not like to walk that bush track we ran that time Hooroo alone, I walk with her twice a week for an hour instead.<br />
<br />
Anyone keen to give her a call, I'll find her number at home for you. -

By the way Nigel who works in the TA gym won two novice bodybuilding titles at the Nationals last year. If you are ever down our way I will take you in for a protein shake with him for a yarn. I think Teresa worked with him last year.<br />

Im entering a Waikato Powerlifting Club Comp (novice section) on the 7th of November. Maybe I should start a new thread. Training is really picking up now, Im just starting to lift some decent tin again but there are no signs of losing my motor and I eat like a bird (and I stopped drinking piss on New Years Day). Im still a burly 111kgs at 176cm (on tippy toes). My Nov goals are 220kg Squat, 220kg Deadlift, 160 Bench. -
I was thinking of getting into that next RB - a bit of powerlifting. I used to be able to get out 240kg dead lifts and 200kg squats, although I don't think my form on the squats would have been the flashest!! Bench press lets me down though, 137 I think was the best I have done, something liek that, although it was for 2 reps while prop cyril was blazing away at 150s!<br />
<br />
Squatting 12 reps at 115 at the moment at 88kg bodyweight, and will up that again next week, so feeling good there.<br />
<br />
Bench press though shite since shoulder injury, after doing three sets of incline dumbells (30s), I can do 12-10-8 reps of bench at 60, 65 and 65 kg, and it's killing me.<br />
<br />
Hate lifting pretend tim, although my chest feels rooted at the end of that!!<br />
<br />
so what do you do for PL training...? -

I have a 3 day a week programme, 3 exercises per workout, 5 set of 5 reps each bodypart. Ive had to extend it to four days so I can have one day just squatting. I need more warmup sets before hitting my working sets. This is a 12 week programme and Phase One of a Four part year long programme (one week rest between each phase). Phase Two is lower reps eg triples, doubles, singles. Im just concentrating on squat, deadlifts, weighted chins, BB Rows, bench, close grip and military press. At the moment Im benching 3 x 5 at 130, deadlifitng 5s at 190 and squatting 5s at 180. Pretty pleased seeing I had knee surgery on Feb 13. Im still working within myself though, but I have to stop eating like a bird if I am to progress. I dont have many pain free days, either old shoulder or knee creaks play up. But Im out there doing it and having a crack.
