2019*
Hoping for most improved next year. Definitely on the right track right now.
Thatās the gist of it. I plan on Something like CTs best damn workout and hopefully I can hit it 4 days a week, and I can only do 3 days a week some weeks Iāll just add a set. But I think it should be doable.
For 3 days a week I like a full body program, or something that doesnāt leave my legs sore for 5 days to where I canāt play with a 3 year old without grimacing.
Im not sure if this is supposed to be how shredded you get or how much muscle you can pack on?
Either, itās a ābiggest transformationā type thing, so whatever you feel like you can do in 5 months to make your physique look the most improved do that⦠having said that, for 99% of people thatās probably fat loss.
Iām in! I only joined recently but this seems like a great opportuntity to set some accountable goals.
Could go for growing the biggest belly category Mark.
Iām in this year.
Donāt tempt me ![]()
Iām coming for that most improved category ![]()
Im gonna have a go at this even though I dont expect to win,im just gonna bulk for 6 months and hopefully look better.
I think itās a tricky precedent to set, since the āmainā idea was the Jan-June change, but since we just added the year-to-year section last⦠um⦠year, itās still a work in progress.
Iād say sure, toss up that power belly this June and then letās see abs and a 500-lb squat the year after.
Like Maier said, you should be able to tag your current log. Click edit in your threadās first post and it should be there.
Just post it in this thread by end of day Jan 1.
Yeah, like Lonnie said, itās transformation. So whatever makes the most significant (and beneficial) change. Thatās most often fat loss, but if you go from 175 to 195, thatād be a pretty big difference.
For sure thatās a huge and underappreciated reason to do the thing. Public accountability has a way of persuading you against cheeseburger breakfasts.
Congrats, man!
Iām in. Now is a pretty good time to take advantage of CTās Black Friday sales lol
Iām in!
Go for it. The top two I remember from last year gained muscle vs. losing guts. @steigs gained muscle and got leaner and was already lean, but I think heās a robot.
I looked at his profile and realized the chances of me getting even close to winning are low.
I donāt know if I can fully commit to this.
My missus is due to give birth in January. I plan to spend the first year focusing purely on her and the baby, Iām cancelling my gym membership and will likely take a hiatus from lifting.
Iāll likely get some running done along with KB work whenever I can get the time. Not conducive to physique goals however hopefully keep the fat off. This on top of the spin classes that I teach.
Iāll probably hit June looking like a AIDS ridden male escort
First, congrats on the new addition!
Why are you giving up on training? Does your wife like to train in any way or have any hobbies?
When my wife and I had our first kiddo we made it a point to train. Iād stay home and take care of our daughter while my wife went and ran or did whatever she needed to do. She did the same for me. We both like to train in some aspect so we made sure to give that to each other. It was good for her recovery. It was also good for our mental health.
I encourage you to consider something like that for both of you. Give your wife time to get out and do whatever she wants and take some time for yourself. Itās a good thing.
I understand you donāt intend to maintain the physique of a competitor but you donāt have to throw in the towel and regress. Just a little food for thought from someone whoās been thereā¦twice.
