[VeganBodybuilding] Status Update...

Just another update, I have been losing 1 to 1.5 lbs each week and weighed in at
190 lbs this past Sunday. This week looking forward to weighing in around 188.5
lbs or so. BF% coming down 1% each week.

Last week I had a vacation in Florida, USA and I trained only a couple times
there - wanted to give the body a break. Also did not stay 100% on diet, was
about 70-75% compliant, but when I came back, I weighed in LESS than when I left
by 1/2 pound. That was a very nice surprise, I expected to weigh in more!

Looking really cut, starting to see the ABS (sides and upper) with seperation.
Lower ABS will be the last to go I guess. Arms, delts, legs getting very
vascular as well. I am seeing veins in places I did not see before. When
training at the gym, look almost "show ready" in these body parts - I should
definitely be ready - have 20 weeks to go.

Jumped training up from Mon-Wed-Fri to M-T-W-Th-F five day split using heavy low
rep compound exercises and higher rep isolation exercises after heavy moves are
done. Doing Cardio 5 days a week in AM after 1 scoop protein shake, glutamine,
and BCAAs. Up to 50 minutes per day now. Doing posing practice on Sundays.
Eating 6 meals per day, carb cycling - 2 days no carbs 1700 cals, 2 days low GI
carbs only 1850 cals, 2 days high carbs 2050 cals then a CHEAT DAY, this has
really helped me alot! And it has not hurt my progress! But at the 12 weeks out
mark, I will be dropping the Cheat Day and just continue to cycle carbs as
above.

I received the poster for my contest, will get the application in after it is
out on July 5.

Getting really psyched, but after taking some pics, I wonder why I look alot
better in the gym mirrors than I do in the camera.

I'll post a current pic soon as I can.
