Alrighty Then.

THanks for the compliments man. I have read people saying the samething about the squats to other people - most strenuous first so you can focus hardest to get it right so I will be doing that from now on. As of right now my goal is (and has been) cutting. Military press will be going freeweight soon - im still weening myself off the machines haha.

In the long run I will be doing a bulk; but I would like to cut another 5-10lbs off first. I want this to be the first summer I can remember that I will be proud of my body, at the very least not ashamed by it.

Just for personal records, I took some measurements so I can compare as I keep progressing. (I'm a lefty; measuring left body parts)
Bicep: 15.33"
Thigh: 26"
Calf: 16.33

Neck (resting): 17.5"
Chest (full breath): 44.75"
Wais (bellybutton)t: 39.33"
Hips (across butt): 43"

Doesn't seem like a huge difference to me, but i'm getting less squishy haha =P. In my journal in my last post I wrote about a predicament I'm in - keep doing what i'm doing (increasing strength w/o gaining weight) or cutting to what I want my final weight to be, then see if I can refind this balance of bulking and losing fat at the same rate. I think I've decided to cut but it's not final yet.
 
I'm playing the love handle-be-gone game right now, finally the weight seems to be coming off my stomach and love handles. If you haven't been reading my journal, I severely sprained my foot a week and a half ago, just getting weight back on it now. During this time ive been eating in a deficit (first time in a long while) and have lost some weight, down to 220 and still dropping. That means 25lbs down and well over half way to my goal! WHEW! Anyways, I think its time for some pics =D

So I've got my normal side front shot, and back shot (i see my love handles shrinking =D):





And i'm throwing in a new one, front flexed.
 
Bump from the depths of the forum =D. Well, I've kept at it slowly but surely over this whole time period, and I'm now bouncing around the 190's in weight! Average around 195! My neighbors picked up P90X about 4 months ago, and are on their second 90 days. In the first I joined in for about 10-15 workouts, man what an ass kicker! I absolutely love the program though, and now they are 2.5 weeks into the second 90 days, I've been keeping up with them 7 days a week and i've only missed about 3 workouts...not too shabby! Anyways I don't know where my old pics were, so heres one from somewhere around the beginning of this thread.



and heres nowadays! Well...closer to it...this was a few weeks ago I've made a little progress
