- Thread starter FUCKYOU

Polar starts at $40 and goes up to $300. Timex Ironman are $50 - $80. I got a Polar at Dunhams for $80 but 20% with a coupon $65. Buy anything in the store even a piece of gum and get a 20% off coupon.
john cena is 240 lbs. Are his joints stressed? Does he need to drop weight too?
When you're in shape bruh what you weigh is irrelevant. How you can argue this point is beyond me

No you stop cuz you dont shit about getting in shape.
Just cuz he's losing weight has nothing to do with him getting shape and weighing himself like a dumb ass every day is counter productive. But keep telling him to watch paint dry

By all means excuse yourself from the thread, you continually exibit you have absolutely no clue to what the fuck you are talking about.
Its painfully obvious that you dont have a fucking clue bro (and im not even referencing you posting a John Cena wiki page eitherNo you stop cuz you dont shit about getting in shape.

).You're not adding anything of worth here and going back and forth with you is only distracting away from an otherwise positive thread. Take care sir.
If brothas here wern't so homophobic and insecure alot of this internet posing done by the pseudo fit guys and experts would be nipped in the bud by simply posting pics of results. I bet an overwhelming percentage of the cats talking shit are lard ass doughboy types who think they are the shit because they have a gym memberhsip. Its ridiculous some of shit thats said.

Thanks Bruh, and yes I was out of shape 2 years ago. I was 257 with my gut hanging over my belt. Currently I'm 244. My BMI is around 14%. I only lost 13 lbs. My blood pressure was out of control and borderline diabetes.
Today I can run just about 6 miles and look a lot different. I took a year and half to get in shape. I looked at the scale maybe 4 times during my entire training. I just went by the mirror and my clothes. I'm not cut up but I'm in shape and happy with the results.
I said i was done but i owe you a response since you did post your progress. In short...First and foremost, congrats and respect. Now, im not gonna say anything negatively about your route and results, but you still dont need to be handing out your formula as if its a magic pill or it applies to everyone while steadfastly shitting on this man's course of action (your comments were still flat out wrong). And your 257 on what looks like a 6'2 frame should never be mentioned when referencing a 270 on a 5'9 frame. Keep up the good work.

You don't know what the fuck your talking about. What? You thought you shut the thread down? Looking in the first pic you had a considerable amount of muscle mass which I'm assuming you've been hitting the weights for years.
Now take FUCKYOU, he's been in the gym for what? No more than a year, muscle mass no where close to that and much more body fat but you still think "dropping weight is useless".
7-9-07 201lbs - Excercised none what so ever and was in denial about "being in shape" because everyone called me skinny...Gucci Mane was my idol at the time as well lol.
11-27-08 214lbs - I did body weight exercises here and there, mess with some 50lb dumbbells but that's it.
12-28-08 220+lbs - Just awful looking...Started developing titties. Signed up to a gym in 2-4-09.
7-09 213lbs - I hit the weights and did cardio but I was still eating shitty foods. I was flabby as hell. (pulling down my stomach in this photo to show abs more)
9-10-09 195lbs - Cut out the fastfood, gatorade and orange juice binging from my diet.
1-7-10 183lbs - Month prior I started counting calories (1,800-2,300 per day) and weighing myself everyday. Yes I lost some muscle during this period only because I switched my fitness regimen to 15 minutes lifting followed by 45 minutes of cardio 6 days a week.
4-11-10 181lbs Focused on gaining muscle...
4-30-10 181lbs Mission accomplished, muscle gained. I also started the Keto diet I think 2 weeks before I took these pics. Started drinking protein shakes at this time too.
5-1-10 177lbs Completed my Muscle & Fitness T-shirt program and month long keto diet. (no homo) I ingested about 200-275g of protein, 110g of fat, 7g of carbs per day at this time.
I am still a long ways from where I want to be.

impressive.
This ain't no check mate homie. You told my man, "By all means excuse yourself from the thread, you continually exibit you have absolutely no clue to what the fuck you are talking about."
He's about twice as big as you. You're cut right now. But you won't get as big as him without bulking. Now I didn't go back and read the whole convo. But you two need to agree to disagree. I'm going to work out.
Post yo picz homie. Don't be writing this long ass response. Him and Betterman stepped up and posted. We got a homie cut up and one on swole. You mentioned it first. Fuckyou needs motivation. Don't worry we'll wait. You got some so don't front. (No homo).
No homo, but the thread is inspirational. Maybe it should be moved to health and fitness?
That's the bottom line. It is inspiring for real.
I need to get serious and get on my grind for real to get healthy.
The truth is I am a Type II diabetic (runs in my family), and I have a long life to live, so I need to get this under control.
My stats:
Weight - 229lbs
Height - 6' 1
Age - 33 years 9 months.
My goal weight is 185lbs, but hopefully I want to be down to 200 by December.
Good work everyone, and I def plan to use this as motivation.
I honestly have nothing to tell you what you haven't heard before but everytime I fall off I look at these dudes who are doing it big time for motivation.I wish you nothing but success in attaining your goals!

Transformations Skinny to Mass

Just work hard, take it day by day and it will pay off. Don't stress over it and continue enjoying life. About every 8 weeks I take a whole week off from the gym and eat whatever I please. Once a year I take a whole months off from the gym eating what I please.
For example, I know November is a big event month with the holidays and I was getting pretty burned out at the gym so I took the month off. I decided that I would start counting calories in December to reach my goal. It was great because I was still eating what I liked, just in moderation.
My fitness regimen consisted of
About 15 minutes of lifting at moderate weight (to retain muscle memory and not burn myself out during the week)
Chestx10 Supersetted Bicepx10
Tricepsx10 Supersetted Backx10
Shoulderx10 Supersetted Shrugsx10
Elevated Weighted Sit-ups x10
45 minutes of cardiovascular activity followed by a 10 minute cool down in the sauna.
I did this 5 days a week.
11-2-09 193.4lbs
11-30-09 200.4lbs
12-7-09 195.2lbs
12-14-09 190.2lbs
12-21-09 188lbs
12-29-09 185.2lbs
Results = 15lbs of of weight loss. Again I lost some "muscle" but my strength stayed exactly the same.

Pics kinda freaked me out.
Anyway, I'm using this thread as help as well. I found out that I have a overactive thyroid a few months ago and it really messed up my workout plan. So I finally got a groove with my supplements and my meds. My meds were sapping my enery making it even harder to stick to a workout plan.
Good thread, I like it.
BTW, Ive started my p90x plan again with some of the insanity workouts tied in.
