Congrats to you for all your hard work.

4 weeks is a bit of a short time scale.

to achieve your training goals, whatever they may be, it takes a long time and lots of commitment.

I suppose I knew that I would not 'see' much of a diff when comparing pics that close together.

But I figured that since i had nto been on here in a while that I would at least let you guys know what was up with pics and such.

My access to here....will be .. limited and such.....meaning that you're not going to hear much for a while.....or it will be off and on.

Great improvement of definition man. Good job so far.

jacentk2 · 11-28-2006, 09:57 AM

Any one here have some advice on where to go with what you see? I am trying to cut big time and get down to 180 Lean mass....what you see in the now pics is me weighing in at about 205ish. I can post my routine as well if you'd like to take a look. The routine is from someone that I trust and it has been helping as well. My only issue is in the chest. It's perhaps my WEAKEST of all exercises.....I feel like I am using more arm strength than chest when I do them.

Andrew · 11-28-2006, 04:43 PM

use chest orientated machines then. or lighter free weights, so you aren't using more arm than chest. up your cardio. eat more protein than carbs and fat. if you're that desperate try a fat burner, or ephedrine or something.

What's your chest exercise look like right now?

Scope out the weight loss forum and make some threads on questions you have or tips you're lookin for

I do see changes in those pics. Good job thus far.

Keep working at it. Make sure your not going to heavy ont he chest exercises to start out with. Try some body weight exercises for chest as well, such as push ups and dips. Your chest muscles will get stronger. It will just take time.
