Well everyone,

This is what I have, who knows where I will get to...

Now that's natural
What have you got planned to do between now and the end of 2012
...and how long did it take for you to get up the courage to post? srs question

A bit of cardio, good nutrition with plenty of healthy food and a decent weight training routine and you will pack muscle on that frame and lose fat in no time.

Just stick to it and work hard and you will see great results. Good luck

Also don't say things like "who knows where I will get to". Positive thinking and a clear idea of where you want to get to will help you create the will to do what you need to do!

Took me a while to pluck up the courage to post.

Would like to be at around 90kg with 12-15% bodyfat by the end of the year.

Will wait for your progress pictures dude. Just rip into it=]

Goodluck!

Well, good on you for doing it. You'll be pleased you did post Before photos when you've got some Afters to compare them to in a year's time. I look forward to seeing them!

Sing out if you need any help.

Some wise person once said to me "you can't train away bad nutrition", first thing to do is sort out how you are going to eat your 5-6 meals per day, time frames between each meal etc. Get it all committed to paper and it will make your progress speedier. Look forward to hearing how you go. If you need any ideas on nutrition or anything else, don't be afraid to ask, there are plenty of peeps with great ideas on this site.

repped for posting pics mate ... takes a lot of courage to put yourself out there. Your a blank canvas - get some good nutrition advice and post up a regular journal. You'll reach your goal through consistancy provided your desire is big enough.

Good luck.

You are so right. Getting back into a training regime was the easy bit. Shifting from 1 meal a day to 5 was not. I must say, however, that I have been eating 5 smaller meals a day for a week now and have noticed a considerable increase in energy levels, I can train harder and longer, and I have lost 2 kg.

I will be starting a journal of my routing, diet and results with pics ( public accountability and all) shortly.

Thanks all for your advice and support.

I can relate to that. I shifted from 1 meal to 7. Been at it for 2 days now and feel like I'm going to explode.

Updated Pics from end of week 4.


Routine working well, still trying to get the diet right

Can definitely see a difference!

Keep it up!

Agree .. made a good start mate keep up the good work

90kg @ 15% by the end of the year is a soft goal mate, looks like you could easily trump that!

can see a good difference already, set your goals a little higher mate.

Good work so far and kudos for posting pics and creating accountability.

Look forward to following your journey.

A noticeable change. Well done.

Have you thought about starting a journal?

Nice work, your body is changing fairly quickly. When can we expect more progress pics?

6 Weeks in. 90kg now, down from 94kg. Have been following a new routine for the past two weeks focusing on squats and deadlifts and loving every minute of it.

Keep up the good work mate, can already see a big difference comparing the start to 6 weeks in. Shoulders coming up and waist coming down
