Adida's back at again!!!

That's right, been about 3 months since I lifted or dieted right...been chowin' on fast food and eating a SEE FOOD diet from mid May till basically the start of Aug. went from a slimmed down, but by no means cut up, wt of 203-206-ish to a whopping 223+ in that time.

well, now have settled back down, I'm getting into a good groove with my job, and have found the time and desire to get back at it!

I know things are going to start slow, wts will be light and I'm sure as hell it will agrivate the sh!t out of me, knowing how much wt I use to move and how much it all has slipped away too.

week 1 and 2 of Aug all I did was start dieting...back on my high fat, moderate protein, low carb food consumption. were I dropped down too 213! over 8 lbs down..didn't even exercise.

week 3 I have added in my exercise/work out regimie I will be following. wt increased to 217 by the end of the week.

week 4 although it's only mid week, I snuck a peek at the scale...wt seems to be headed south again.

Goals!!!
over all fat reduction..not overly concerned with body wt, but I am prepared for wt loss...most likely I will be headed to a much lighter wt of 200 or less if everything works out how I would like it too.

Increased cardiovascular endurance

Increased muscular endurance

Improved over all general health

Increased strength...DUH..who doesn't want that?!

of course I realize since my goals are so diverse it will take longer than most would like it too take...but I can live with that and have planned for it.

alright heres the diet plan:
basically a 65/5/30 diet of fat/carbs (after minusing out fiber intake)/protein
total cal's for now will be roughly 2400-2800...this will change based on performance and physique changes.

cheat meals/days will be on saturdays...anything basically goes!

and no I'm not interesting in your opinions of my High Fat Diet...I think I am quite well versed Keto and nutrition and how I want to approach my food intake.

the training plan:
M- will consist of 6x6/8x8 training (Vince Gironda style) full body..30-45 minutes no more than that.

T- long distance runing (right roughly 2 miles), however long it takes...but basically 30 minutes or under.

W- Tires!!! out door mostly tire drags, sand bag training, Strong man style work outs...basically if its unconventional and concidered wierd I will be doing these days. these will be timed for any were between 20 and 45 minutes.

T- indoor cardio...30 minutes and out...bikes, tred mil, rowing...if its a cardio machine and available I will be using it.

F- heavy wts, each week concentrating on one of the big 3...the rest of the body will be hit as secondary work. no more than 45 mintues here.

will post week 1 work outs shortly...along with basic lay out of diet.

Not overly impressed with my work outs this week, but really who is when they 1st start back up? I was quite surprised though at my ability to keep up a week long work out program. This would the 1st time since maybe high school I have exercised ALL week long. So far, so good, nothings falling off or apart yet.
My diet this week went well but was far from spot on… I ate a whole pound of ground Bison Wednesday night along with 3 oz of goat cheese mixed init. But managed to keep carb intake below 50g’s all week long. Saturday night I had Buffalo wings and half a Lrg white pizza, for my cheat meal.

Will post up a basic diet I follow here in bit.
 
post pics of your fat ass

what do you consider a big tire? One that fits on a hummer or a monster truck?
 
Typical M-F daily diet:
12 whole eggs
2 slices of cheese
Sour cream
Salsa/ Pico Di gilo
Calf liver 3-4oz (only eat this on M-W-F with breakfast)
2 thick slice bacon strips
1oz almonds
1oz walnuts
4-6oz steak or some other red meat (once in an awhile I may swap out for some chicken or pork)

M-W-F I use this too: PWO shake (made of a mix protein powder; whey iso/con powder; lecithin; coconutoil; EVOO; 2 raw whole eggs) plus a tin of smoked herring (not in the shake)

Tues & Thurs I just use a whey and coconut oil shake after my cardio sessions.

Sat/Sun- I eat how ever I feel, Saturdays are typically reserved for cheat day/meals…but I am in no way trying to eat any certain number of meals or achieve a cal intake of any type. If I eat once or twice Saturday, fine, if I eat an entire elephant GREAT! I only let my hunger guide me on these days.

Supp’s: none really
B-50 complex
Vit E 400 IU mix toco
Vit C 500mg with rosehips
Selenium
Niacin 250

3-4 cups of green tea daily 10-12oz’s each.
 
Welcome back bro! Nice to see you back at it ;) I'll be keeping an eye in the log for sure..

no pix...not until I lessen the man tits I'm sportin' and loose some more of these love handles I have...

my 2 tires are between 30+ to a little over 50lbs...I believe...I need to find my records I have on them to see what they wt in at...the 10 ft of chain I have is 16 lbs...so I have anywere from 45+ lbs to over 60+ lbs behind me, plus the added friction of the grass...

Welcome back bro! Nice to see you back at it ;) I'll be keeping an eye in the log for sure..

thanks! feels good to be back.

needless to say, the scale didnt move a whole lot this Monday morning.
