I started my diet alot leaner than you so my conditioning was bound to come up faster. Don't let it de-motivate you, you are doing well. I know what you mean about feeling skinny though.. My trousers are bloody falling off me and my T-shirts don't have that nice tight fit anymore LOL! Stay focused mate and keep composed.. Stay 100% strict, enjoy feeling hungry and realise what a beast you'll be in the coming weeks. You have already made progress in the photos you posted. Luke

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Re: Marsbars Journey to the NABBA North West First Timers cheers for the encouragement lads .. I am 100% focussed and committed. and really lucky that my wife is very supportive. I guess I just didn't realise how much it would mess with my head. The mad thing is I look better with my shirt off even though I look smaller in clothes and I am going to try and stay lean year round now. Ordered some green tea extract today to help with the weight loss. Diet has been good again today and I've caned the water .. 6ltrs so far .. will try and get 1 more in before I go to bed. Chest and triceps tomorrow |

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Re: Marsbars Journey to the NABBA North West First Timers Cheers dmcc Chest and triceps yesterday .. kicked off with 3 work sets of 45 degree incline cable flyes .. really like these .. good hard contraction at the top, then onto 3 sets of incline smith with a few rest pause reps at the end of each set (actuallly got more reps than I do when I have these first in my w/o) then 2 sets of hammer dips with two drops on thelast set. triceps was 2 sets of incline tricep ext, 2 sets of v bar pushdown and 2 sets of rope pushdowns. Quads today. Started with leg press and after a few warm ups I did a set with my feet at the edge of the platform - 10 secs rest - a set with my feet in normal position - 10 second rest - a set with my feet together. This was brutal .. only managed two of these. Then onto leg ext - 2 sets with two drops on the last then finished with 2 sets of hack .. paused at the bottom of each rep .. legs were very very pumped. Struggled to get down the stairs after my workout and walked back to work like a newborn lamb. Feeling good at the moment ... nailing my diet with no real issues. I'll have a few drinks tonight as a cheat Last edited by Marsbar; 12-05-2008 at 02:01 PM. |

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Re: Marsbars Journey to the NABBA North West First Timers delts today .. 4 sets of seated machine press ..few rest pauses and drop sets. Cable laterals .. did these leaning over to the side doing the lifting to really isolate. Did 1 straight set of these then on my second set did 2 drops. Finished off with rear laterals supersetted with upright rows. Did some light biceps work to finish (doing arms twice a week at the mo). The lad who's helping me is getting a look at me tomorrow to assess where I'm it .. fingers crossed I'm on track. |

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Re: Marsbars Journey to the NABBA North West First Timers Just noticed this thread, im a bit late to follow it but better late than never. You should be able to make it in time mate, you have a solid chest and nice delts by looks of things. The show is on 25th of may, the ukbff north west warrington at par hall? I will see you there mate, quite possibly we will compete against each other. I am either gonna do the first timers, or the intermediate over 80's...and if i dont do that, i'll still go up to watch So either way i will be there anywhere.Hope your training and diet goes well, dont be disheartened AT ALL by what appears to be the lack of fat your losing because thats what happens at the start of any diet when you have high bodyfat. You'll get the initial 2-4 weeks where you see rapid weightloss and visibly more definition and then it seems to stop completely (except weight keeps dropping), until about week 9...come week 9 youll look leaner and this will be gradual until week 12-13 or so, then in the final few weeks all the fat from the stubborn areas will go aswell and the skin gets thinner. Thats the way my body works and how friends of mine who compete works aswell. Just stick with it mate, your goal is to stand on that stage looking the best you can look, if you know you look the best you can then youve done your job. Train hard, diet harder, take care. Edit: I cant believe how thick i am, i couldnt even see 'NABBA' written at the top of the thread lol, theres me harping on about ukbff and its a different federation lol. I wont be competing but i might be in crowd...either way, hope your prep goes well. Last edited by Britbb; 12-02-2008 at 09:22 PM. |
