Hello, I will soon be starting the Tom Venuto: Burn The Fat: Feed The Muscle lifestyle and plan on keeping that way for many moons... So Because I just teased all with the Description link you clicked to get in here and find no journal progress yet. I am going to satisfy your needs the best I can and label some goals:

Desired Body Fat %: 3.5 - 4
Desired Physique: Big but not to big, with the lack of visible fat good muscle definition should appear and awesome strength gains.
Desired Weight Range: 210 - 215

My current stats: (Oh boy...)

Height: 6'2"
Weight: 230 or 235 lbs (I don't really care to know right now. lol)
--I do not yet know my current body fat percentage--

And for the record - I am very serious about changing my lifestyle and committing to the hard work it is going to take to get to my goals. I will keep in mind that there are going to be difficult times and knowing that I will prepare and be ready for them. When ever I feel down or feel I have l lost sight of my goals, it is a big help to know I can come here and get the support I need. Especially from other people trying to do the same thing. I am determined! And nothing will stop me, no more excuses either, lying to yourself just doesn't cut it anymore! Thank you.

SmileSmileSmile I feel better now.SmileSmileSmile I'll keep you all posted!

When I am weight training, how 'exactly' is my body expending glycogen, glucose if any, and carbohydrates? I know what my body does, but it's still vague... I really want to know if while I am working out am I burning a combination of all my 'energy' sources?

Thanks you to everyone who has helped so far!Smile

don't mean to be budging my nose into your businesses, but when i read that 3.5 - 4% body fat thing in my email (received this thread in the email)
i was like aam... its gonna be tough.
i think its best you make more liberal goals, especially if you're a bit on the hig side of Body Fat.
i mean i've run on the school track team, and at the end of the season i'm still not that low. (not to mention my body is harding getting anything to eat during the running season, as i'm running friggin an hour a day, and competitions on wednesdays took up even more time) (and i wasn't working out)
i basically wanted to say, try to find out your BF right now...
suppose you're at 15, try to get that down to 10. (i personally think 5% degrade in BF is hard enough for me) (i dunno what i am, but i did measure myself once in PE in grade 9 and i was 11%) but since, i've gained over 30 lbs (either muscle or bones).

I know that obtaining that body fat percentage will be extremely difficult. It's kind of a goal on the out side of my goals, something I want to try out on my journey. Know what I mean? Then ultimately I will settle at a comfortable percentage.Smile

It's something I want to do for myself, test myself. It's not something I want so I can go around boasting and being a @zz about.

It is really cool to see after what you have written and look at your goals as a somewhat tangible thing (after all they are still on the computer and not in your hand, but they are yours do fiddle with Also when other people post you back!Smile

I am real excited right now, I am proud to say I am onto chapter-three of my book. This really is one of the most interesting books I have read...So far. It really is a good read. Smile *big smile*

You might say this isn't much of a 'training' journal' but to me this is the foundations of my success. I'm planting the seed, I will be posting more things about my workout routine soon enough, and I hope to get good feedback to help me with it.

This morning I had shredded wheat like I told you before. My second meal was a slice of whole grain bread and scrambled eggs.

Before my second meal, because I have no weights, (I needed to do something physical) I did three sets of push ups. 10 really slow regular, 10 really slow with feet inclined, 10 really slow with upper body inclined. I did 6 sets of ab workouts. 10 really slow and controlled regular crunches, wait.. And then again. 10 slow crunches to the right in two different sets, and again with the opposite side. I'll do this again tonight.

Tomorrow I'll work the lats arms and legs. (I kind of made up my own workout routine; what do you think?)

Nothing that's going to make awesome gains! It's just using my own body weight, so I can do something of PT until I buy myself weights.

Day 1 - Pectorals, and abdominal muscles.
Day 2 - Triceps, biceps, and shoulders
Day 3 - Cardio
Day 4 - Squats with a punching bag
Day 5 - Off - Abs
Day 6 - Cardio
Day 7 - Off

Probably not that good, but it's the best I can do. I repeat some of the stuff in the evening too, but not the cardio or squats.

As long as you realize that this:

My current stats: (Oh boy...)

Height: 6'2"
Weight: 230 or 235 lbs (I don't really care to know right now. lol)
--I do not yet know my current body fat percentage--


PLUS

DOES NOT EQUAL

Desired Weight Range: 210 - 215


Diet is cool and very important and you will lose weight on diet alone... don't know about 3-4% with only 2 days of cardio, but your not going to attain a BB pohysique on what your doing.

Dont forget you back. I didnt see any back exercises. You might want to switch day 2 with day 3. Your triceps and shoulders might not respond well a day after chest.

Yeah as you know I just got my license; So I'm going to have access to the essentials for my weight lifting. Yes djduhon, 2 days of cardio won't get me that...That routine I listed was just for psychological benefits. Make me feel like I'm doing something. lol Everything is going to get kicked up a notch...A big notch. Thanks guys!Smile
