Few Notes:
Since june 2007 till june 2009, my goals were basically being the Menshealth cover looking guy. I started off with running, “lifting weights” 3-4x a week, cleaned up my diet a bit, started doing jiu jitsu and kept at it. Eventually I was doing jiu jitsu 3 x a week, muay thai 2x a week, lifting 4 x a week, HIIT 1x week and a 11km jog 1x a week. I was lean, ripped and could eat about 8-10 000kcal a day easily.
The TURNING POINT:
My mate got into Tmuscle and showed me the wonders of effective training :), I started doing heavier, less reps weights and did GVT for a month to get my body into lifting more and more. Its now at the point where I eat about 2500 - 3000kcal a day, always clean, carbs pre-peri workout and keep to protein and fats afterwards. I allow 2 high carb up days a week, coming from either pasta or sushi. I lift 6x week, 5 Steady State Cardio sessions a week in the morning when I wake up.
My training heavily revolves around heavy weight training, reaching for maxes, gaining strength and all round power basically.
