'We knocked the bastard off'
-
Still rocking along, weight levelled out at 88.X kilos over the last couple of weeks. Which means I hope, that the fat is still going, but the muscle is coming onboard just as fast as the fat is going...<br />
<br />
Will find out on Thursday when we see out trainer...<br />
<br />
Leg workouts still hell on earth, shoulders / chest / back workouts not so hell on earth, but still ample!! -
[quote name='BartMan']glucosamine (spelling?) RB is the one - I have had trouble with my feet for years, pain all the time etc. the mrs always saying, take the damn pills. I finally did - and wham, ready for a bloody marathon!! Give them a crack anyway![/quote]<br />
<br />
That's what I've started taking but everyone tells me it'll take 6 months before I feel the benefits. You're implying they worked quicker than that on you.<br />
<br />
Shoulder gets really sore, don't know why and a short rest normally fixes it.<br />
I've (apparently) got carpel tunnel (excuse spelling) in both hands and need an op to fix them however using the throttle, clutch and brake on the bile seems to be helping this so will leave the surgery option for a while yet, only really hurts when I'm using tools like a hammer or screw drivers.<br />
Knee.. one had a cartilage op a decade or so ago and has always been a bit untrustworthy since, the other does most of the work and gets tied. After a resent crack I thought I was in for another op but having started to again wear a knee support when doing exercise it seems to have come right and actually feels better than it has in years.. properly because it's caring around 23kg less.<br />
<br />
Heel spur I'm managing with anti-inflammatories which do help alot. One doc didn't think it was worth operating on and just told me to stop doing the exercise so I'm going for a second opinion from a doc who's supposed to really know his stuff, unfortunately that wont be for 5 weeks. -

oi, I resemble that comment...<br />
<br />
Logged in with trainier today, and she was stoked with results again, and reckons I should be in with a good shout of winning - nothing like putting the pressure on an old man eh!!<br />
<br />
Anyway, she emails us with the fat loss / muscle gain things so will expect those tonmight or tomroow.<br />
<br />
My food intake has been increased by another 185gm of Tuna in my morngin snack.<br />
<br />
I am proud to announce that somethings that look suspiciously like abs are showing out now too!!! -

Disgrace to the Front Row Union. Hand in your membership badge please asap. -
gutted with results, measurements and fat etc going down fine, but have been overdoing the aerobic side of it, and lost a kilo of lean muscle mass too.<br />
<br />
OVerding = 2 50 minute walks a week!!!!!!!<br />
<br />
So have had another tin of tuna 185g to my mid morning snack and 3 x 20 minute aerobic sessioins a week.<br />
<br />
I love this lack of running that is for sure, but I think I am growing gills...!! -
86.9kg, 10.8% body fat this morning post workout. Eating been a bit off this week, a few extras snuck in here and there, but even when we cheat (Mrs BartMan) it isn't too bad - we have found some protein bars that taste a bit like chocolate, so we are cheating, but not that badly - but still, it will screw up with out PT's eating plan for us!
-
good results at the PT's this morning, on my scales at home 86.2kg and 9.5% bodyfat. Will get results from PT though in the next day or so. But measurements all coming down which is good.<br />
<br />
Got a new training programme today, and getting a new eating plan emailed through today too.<br />
<br />
So all action stations in project 'vanish'...!! -

What is your goal weight/BF Bart? Im getting bloody concerned. I think I may need a photo of you on my fridge and be paying one dollar a day into a World Vision account to help you out. -
photo's bartman....you sound scrawny and you need to stop, for every kg you lose I have gained.......its just wrong i tell ya
-
Good luck Bart. As a former bodybuilder myself, I can tell you that it isn't easy but the rewards are great. If you are going to be squatting heavy, be careful. Focus on form over how much weight you are using, and the weights will take care of themselves. Also, if you are trying to add size, remember the big 3: squats, bench, deadlifts. Enjoy.

cheers davidav, loving it.<br />
<br />
At the moment not doing too heavy weights - reps are 10 and up, so as heavy as I can go for those, but nothing insane at the moment. Not having a training partner helps you keep it real too!<br />
<br />
doing sets of 20 squats at the moment, after leg press, lunges and hamstring falls, so legs are shattered before you even hit ther rack - love it.
