+ 20 Before/After:. My fattest to current

ad

I’ve always trained and competed from 2005-2016. However, there was a period of time that my diet sucked, cardio was minimal and stress was high. Got my shit together and made some changes. Not sure on the exact time between these, but a few years. Before the current photo I got my diet cleaned up and got lean, gained a little, but then was in a. Good spot before I started this current cut. 45yrs old, feel good. I think I was 240s in the fat pic. Currently 212.

Edit- last pic is during my last prep, 10yrs ago. Around 175lbs or so. Natty.

Haha. Thanks man. I feel pretty good and definitely don’t feel how I thought I’d feel at 45. Having a 32yr old girlfriend keeps me young. Haha.

Thank you. I went on TRT March of 2024 through my clinic. 180/wk, took me to 1465. Now, in between this awful photo and then, I dieted down, gained, dieted a little, gained a little. I think there are 3 or 4 yrs in between photos. And I’m on prep cycle now.i think last year I dieted down to 209, then maintained and went up to 236. Maintained, and cleaned up the diet a little, and started this current cut in the mid 220s.

And I’ll say this. While PEDs are helpful and they work, they just enhance what we do. Your diet can amplify the PEDs so much more than some realize. Being lean is great, and so many benefits, especially when it comes to getting into a great spot to grow from. I’ll put a pic up from when I was natty and in my last prep, 10yrs ago. Damn, I’m old. lol.

Facts on the PEDs/Diet man. It’s amazing how many people do not understand this concept. Well done on flipping the switch to beastmode and holding yourself accountable.

Thank you. The diet will do so much more than some think. Allowing the most out of the drugs, and training. But, the diet is the boring part, and the hard part for most (myself included). Once I’m in a groove/routine, then it just becomes normal. Thanks again.

Thanks man! I will say, I have the benefit of prior contests preps, and it is easy to trust the process, when I know what the outcome will be.!

How is your chest ? Did you gain some size there ? Or more just lean down quicker before the size ? You look great ! Only asking as I was kinda in this same situation. Chest is hard for me to grow

Leathernecks's picture

Not sure exactly what ya mean about chest, but I’ll try and answer. I’ve always been a strong presser, but my chest really doesn’t look impressive (not that it is now, but you know what I mean), until I’m lean.

Holy fuck. That’s quite a transformation. Did you deal with any loose skin?

Thanks. Na. I wasn’t grossly overweight for very long. I’d fluctuate. I have 20ish left to go to get to my condition target.
