<-----smile face is always in order.

**Tinytom** · 20-09-2007, 08:57 AM

Whatever

:lalala:

If you'd looked further then you'd notice that the box was empty.

:jerk:

Anyway I'm not getting involved in such slander cos I saw James L eating loads of simple carbs :popcorn::pop2::preggers:on Sunday but he told me not to tell Paul Booth

so I'm not going to get caught out and drop my MATE in it.

OK mate but the first step to getting over your addiction is to admit it to yourself....."My name is Tom and i am addicted to Tri-O-Plex Bars:boohoo:"

**Tinytom** · 20-09-2007, 09:41 AM

The high carb day wnet quite well yesterday although my body really isnt used to all those complex carbs on a wednesday.

The only change was that for my evening meal at 9pm I had a salmon fillet and sweet potato with brocolli. Havent had this for a while so it was a nice change. I cooked the salmon in a parcel with ginger, carrot and chilli. Lovely.

This morning I was very dry and full as expected. So back to the low carbing for 2 days which should be easier mentally and physically consideirng the kick that yesterday gave me.

I didnt train last night instead I attended to some house work which has been sorely lacking in recent weeks due to me being so busy.

This morning I feel a lot tighter through the midsection and around my obliques in that I can feel the skin tightening when I move about so either I'm fatter or leaner lol.

I was 89kg this morning so even with the carb day yesterday I have dropped weight again. I think I will have a better idea of my contest weight in a few weeks although I think maybe I have another kilo maybe 2 to lose in these next 2 weeks.

PMSL

Now that is a thought. Do you know what, I haven't had salmon for weeks. Think I'll do a nice homemade batter and eat with some fat deep fried chips and onion rings.Mmmm

**Tinytom** · 21-09-2007, 09:08 AM

Yesterday was a low carb day.

After 10 weeks of over 200g a day dropping down to 140 really makes an impact.

All I can say is thank god for effy or I'd be asleep at my desk.

I did my 40 minutes cardio at 6.30 followed by some oats and activated barley at 8.30. This is a really good product, not as fast as Vitargo but very effective, after I have eaten it it takes about 30 minutes for my waist to tighten up, possibly from the barley pulling in water. All I know is that I feel a lot tighter and fuller after having it.

I trained Back last night which went OK, no real strength in me at the moment but my training has shifted to more peak contraction type training in that I like to be able to feel every movement and I am concentrating on contracting my lats with each movement. Also every rep is performed 'deadlift' style so I stop completely at the bottom end of the movement and lift from static.

I did my 40 minutes of stepper afterwards and was totally drained afterwards, this is definately NOT the time that I want to chat to people in the gym but I always seem to get stopped by someone on the way back to the changing room. Being polite and courteous is getting harder each day so I may just have to make a dash when no one is around next week.

I did some posing practice in the gym and I am visibily depleted but very very tight which bodes well for carbing up tomorrow and seeing my progress on the Sunday (I always measure my progress on Sunday morning)

I was 89kg this morning so a noticeable drop in weight these last few days, whether thats from glycogen depletion or fat loss will be seen on Sunday although I can see more definition in my back and legs especially my glutes.

Tomorrow is Cassies birthday (monday really but we are celebrating it tomorrow) so I have some stuff planned for her including an evening meal at a posh italian tomorrow night. Will be nice to go out somewhere different for a change and to spend some real time together as dieting does take its toll on a relationship. We dont live together and she works and trains quite a bit as well so the time we do get is limited.

This weekend I will be getting into the last preparations for the show, I've got to take all the hair off my legs again as I let it grow for a few weeks (stubble and suit trousers dont mix) and I've got to set up my spare room for posing practice, I still have to finalise my routine for the free posing.

So another low carb day today and then Hamstrings and calfs tonight. I train my legs all the way up to the last week as I dont find that they hold a great deal of water. My last leg session will be about 10 days out from the show.

Tommo · 21-09-2007, 02:50 PM

You forgot to include your pre-workout workout!!!!

You'll pay for that comment in 3 hours when you're lying on the floor crying about how your hamstings are cramping up.

Hahahahahaa I'll just drop a big dumbell on you and laugh at your convulsions.

Well actually I'll get one of the other guys to do that as I'll probably be too tired even to pick up a 10kg DB

Tommo · 21-09-2007, 03:11 PM

Sorry mate i couldn't resist!!

If your on another low carb day i better warn people to leave a 5 metre perimeter around you, i'll only venture in to do my set then i'll leg it!

**Tinytom** · 21-09-2007, 03:17 PM

I doubt you'll be legging it anywhere fast after some deep SLDLs. Maybe hopping or comically crawling.

I am on low carb day today but thankfully less tw*ts to deal with in work today so Im in a better mood.

Just keep you know who away from us and we'll be fine.

And I also think that you need to get your own journal going seeing as you've had a major injury and will be soon taking delivery of a stone of muscle from TT training enterprises.

*note to those not familiar* Tommo recently broke his arm and had to take 10 weeks off training ironically/coincidentaly in time for my diet

He's now on a mission to arrive at 17 stone I believe. He was 15 stone when we first started training a year ago and now he's 16 something.

Tommo · 21-09-2007, 03:34 PM

HA HA HA HA!

Hopefully "you know who" will be missing in action.

I can highly recommend TT Training Enterprises.

When we started training in March 06 i was 15 stone. when i broke my arm 3 months ago i hit 17 stone.
This is my first week back and i dropped down to 16.4 stone. The only way is up!

winger · 22-09-2007, 01:59 AM

Not to hijack TT thread, but how did you break your arm Tommo?

**Tinytom** · 22-09-2007, 04:09 PM

tried to lift as heavy as I do Winger.

Lets just say that Tommo doesnt know his own strength when defending himself. He's got quite a hard punch.

winger · 22-09-2007, 04:58 PM

Is he trained in any mma?

Tommo · 22-09-2007, 07:32 PM

Hi Winger

I broke my arm while out with my Mrs and her friends. I work the doors in Bristol at the weekends and had an "encounter" away from work. Lets just say the only mark i had was a broken arm while he was carried off looking like The Elephant Man!! Ha Ha

This resulted in a plate and 5 screws in my right ulna. Thus the 10 weeks off from training.

I use to do alot of JuJitSu and MMA mat work, but haven't done any for a while.

Sorry to impose Blackman
