I guess i should have stopped into here and made a proper introduction before posting all over the place.
Pretty obvious the names Matt.
Im a good ol boy from canada. farm kid working in the dirty oil sands mostly these days.
Back in highschool I used to train a shit load. at my peak i was 210lbs at 5'11'' with a 12% bodyfat. acomplished this naturally without a whole lot of trouble. I really wish i had taken more advantage of those days. I always wonder how i would look now
not looking so good these days though. just a fat oilfield supervisor. I spend my days sitting in my truck working on the computer or driving up to 1000kms a day.
training has been put on hold for years now due to a number of factors. started out when got mixed up with a trouble girl. then took a year trip over to australia and drank my way across the country haha. by that point i had given up on body building and proper nutrition compeletly. into my current job position where smoking cigarettes and drinking monsters all day was the only way to go.
Early last december while on a trip to las vegas I had planned a sky dive trip with my girlfriend. when we got there they weighed me and said i was to heavy to do it. i weighed in at 276 pounds, and this was the first time in my life that my weight had stopped me from being able to do something. let me tell you it was a huge eye opener. I began my diet as soon as i got home and started working out again shortly after.
needless to say i am now on a mission to re build myself. its kills me to think about how 17 year old me could kick my ass, and make me look like a pussy in the gym now.
im not to sure what else goes into these into threads.
uhhh i like to hunt/fish/4x4 all that kinda shit.
ride a motor bike in the summer when its nice
oh i have a pet mule that i broke to ride. go ahead make a joke!

here i will post some photos of me in my prime, so i dont look like a total noob. Last 2 are before i cut down to 12%View attachment 560713View attachment 560714View attachment 560715View attachment 560716View attachment 560717
 
I hope i made it clear that those photos are not even close to being recent. I cant take any credit for currently being built like that haha.

Is that oilfields? Thats where i got this behavior from i use to work in the oil industry some crazys up in there lol
 
HAHA yes oilfields.
We are our own special breed thats for sure.
put 10,000 men into one work camp, and leave them there 3 weeks out of the month and what do you expect? not good behavior that's for sure haha.
 
Its good to see there are some more Canadians on this forum.
We are always so out numbered!
 
welcome to ology.. follow a clean diet.. keep the training up.. and watch the fat come off like melting butter..

5'11 at 276 tells me your bodyfat is very high..

i was 6'4 330lbs over 10 years ago.. which is when i started my own journey to getting fit... a whopping 35% bodyfat myself..

dont sweat it.. take it one day at a time and keep some good mental shocks for all the bumps in the road..
