Chuck's Prep...

[ChuckaZulu]

185 Lbs (fasting) this morning. I'm 21 days out. Abs, side serratus are in. I just have a little loose skin around my navel. I'll see if I can't get my wife to take some pic's tonight. I'm tired all the time and have been sleeping at least 8 hours each night. I don't take naps. My workouts are 30-40 minutes and cardio is every day now.

It sounds like you're cutting up nicely, can't wait to see those pics, man.

 

[ChuckaZulu]

OK, here I am 3 weeks out. I still have some fat to lose.

I think a tan would help, LOL.

NICE BACK WORK, BRUTHA!!!!!!!!! Your vascularity for 3 weeks is friggin' AWESOME!! You are really dialing it in, man! Great separation in your delts there, you must be doing alittle extra sumthin', sumthin' for them.
Keep up the work, bro!!!

Hey chuck, make sure when your showing any back poses that your leg goes not just back, but also out to the side a bit bro, just a friendly critique brutha as your not showing off the (X) frame when u just put your leg back and not out to the side a good bit,

LOL! I was going to ask you about that. Are you just going to spray one before the show?

Yes, my wife has always helped with it. I'll start a few days out.

I tried tanning once outside with my Irish skin and began peeling the day of the show. It was a nightmare.

Gotcha... yea, that would've sucked for sure. You could've just said that you're getting so huge, your skin can't stretch far enough to keep up with your muscle growth. lol

185 Lbs this morning, 2 weeks out.

No change from last week and I still have 3-4 Lbs to lose. I'm a bit dissapointed, but know I can do it. I like to be ready at this point in my prep, no excuses.

Yes, absolutely. I'm down 1-2 Lbs since that last post of mine.
