Fuck man, i don’t think i’ve seen one of your full before and after comparisons before and it’s absolutely blown me away. Absolutely incredible

In all seriousness, those 10 mile walks are still something i remember and reflect on when i think about hard work. Getting up at the ass-crack of dawn to walk for 2 hours is the absolute definition of getting in the unglamorous work.

Also posting results a bit early here. Side by sides with the photos from January below. BW was 184.3 today, down from 196.7 when I posted in this thread and 203 in November. Thought I’d be ripped at this BW! I would never guess I lost nearly 20 lbs, although people are noticing in person. Not as muscular as I thought…Going to change that come fall/winter.

Dude I appreciate that so much! There really is no higher compliment!

And incredible work on the transformation man! 20 pounds is no joke! Waist-line is looking way leaner! I know with your work ethic, this is only the beginning. You will only continue to crush the you of the past!

Awesome work! That’s fantastic progress.

I’m hitting the road back home to Oklahoma this weekend, so I took my pictures tonight. I decided to try to recreate the same poses that I did in March, since comparing those photos to me doing Bodybuilding poses in natural lighting with my posing trunks on isn’t quite a fair comparison.

The before photos I took during day 3 of my cut on March 7th with a morning bodyweight of 207. The after photos were taken this evening (May 21st) at a morning bodyweight of 187.4.

I am exactly one month out from my first classic physique show. It was actually this competition that inspired me to actually pull the trigger and fulfill a lifelong dream of competing. The cut was going so well by Mid-April that I felt like a show would be exactly the inspiration I need to take my training and diet to a level I’ve never yet been too. Thank you to everyone for your encouragement. This has been the experience of a lifetime!

Tagging back in. As you all know, @T3hPwnisher is an incredibly solid dude - can’t thank you enough for the backup.

Afters are looking awesome! I’ve got @BrandonCrawford @Stormblessed @davemccright and @alex_uk.

Are anyone else’s their finals? @kleinhound @throwawayfitness I saw your pics, but you still had/ have a week by the time you posted, so I’ll hold unless you tell me to use those.

Big thanks to those of you that know how to do the side by side of your before/ after, too! That makes life super easy.

Let’s keep it rolling! We’ve got about 120 hours to get those pics in - great job, everyone!

I’ll be getting my pics up on Saturday I think.

I’m shooting for Saturday, too. It may even have to be Sunday - sorry for the delay, I’m babysitting Friday into Saturday.

I’ll drop mine tomorrow morning after my workout. I am getting a pump, not that it is going to matter against you beasts, but I am going to put my best foot forward at least. :joy:

All these years I’ve pictured you with a Tom Selleck-like mustache similar to your Giambi photo.

Well done on your cut although I don’t know where 20 lbs went.

As for my own entry, I might as well just post the same pic as my before and after. I failed to find motivation until this week.

Trust me, Alex, I’ve thought about this quote so many times throughout the year. It’s consistently been a driving force! By the way, you’re looking awesome right now! Super cut!!

Hahaha if I could, I would! Giambi was my hero growing up! I wanted to be a jacked dude hitting bombs! Maybe as I grow older and wiser the mustache will come!

Great mustaches aren’t grown; they’re earned.
