I have actually been visiting this forum for sometime now i just couldnt figure out how and what I wanted to say to all you helpful and inspiring people. First of
I have been on the path of fitness and over all wellness for awhile. About two or so years to be exact. I started off as a 289 lb un-happy person and I now bounce between 207 and 212. It did take me some time and patience to reach this weight, and now im completely stuck. I want an overall fit figure. I want to hopefully one day see my six pack, but I also want to help my overall health (being that a male in my family lives to 56 or so on average). I also totally believe that hard work does pay off though with all this hard work I have been putting forth nothing is changing. I now do a four day split workout in the gym.
Monday: Chest, Back cardio
Wednesday: Legs, Calves, Abs and cardio
Friday: Shoulders, Traps cardio
Sunday: Triceps, Biceps, Abs cardio
I have been trying my best with my diet and with living at home Im trying to inspire my family to purchase healthier food choices(this is slowly working). I occasionally mess up being that whats in my fridge is what I eat. I do purchase my own groceries sometimes but it's hard to keep the fridge full when you only make so much money.
My normal day of good eating is this:
Wake up: one scoop whey protein mixed with 8oz of water
Breakfast: 1 cup black coffee, 2 eggs, piece of fruit, 1 piece whole wheat toast with peanut butter.
Snack if possible: trail mix, cheese stick
Lunch: Turkey sandwich, whole wheat bread, spicy mustard, low fat cheese. piece of fruit or side salad.
Gym time!!
After workout: 2 scoops whey protein, 8oz water
Snack: piece of fruit or trail mix.
Dinner: Usually chicken breast and veggies. glass or two of milk.
Snack: Cottage cheese or can of tuna.
Before bed 1 scoop whey, 8oz milk.
total=2265
height=5'11"
My ultimate goal is to inspire people around me and also prove to myself I can do it. I want to gain a good amount of muscle mass, and also get to 10% bf to totally see muscle definition. I pray someone on here can help me, but thank you anyways for taking a look into what i have to say,
