    Thanks Mir.

    It's funny, I was looking for a good before picture and I couldn't find one.

    my wife told me she aggonized over telling me she found this picture, but ultimately decided
    to let me see it. I was psyched she did. I really needed to see how big of a change I made.
    My face was SOOOO much fatter before.

    Great job Banks. How HARDCORE are you? Hmmm?:huh:

    I'm so hardcore:

    That I can't even do a regular 5 miles on the treadmill anymore. I HAVE to bump it up to max speed at least 3 times for a minute, or else I feel guilty.

    That if my HRM reads anything lower then a 78% average (even on cardio days), I get mad at myself.

    That when I'm doing upper strength training, if my arms aren't too tired to raise above my head as I'm heading out the door, I'll stop, turn around, and do another round of underhand grip pull ups.

    That when I'm doing lower strength training, if my quads don't feel like a truck ran them over, I'll go grab 30 lb dumbells and do jump squats until I can't jump anymore!

    I'm a very odd duck sometime! :tongue:

    How hardcore are YOU?

    I have been told by several people that I need a tan, it looks like you could use one as well. Luckily the weather is warming up!

    Good job.

    LOL, you guys are too funny.

    TAN??? It's March, there's no tanning in march in New England! Plus, I had the flash on, the flash makes everyone look white.

    I love my triceps in the last pictures, they are really getting defined.

    Banks, do we have to worry about you walking around, making a point of saying things like "The desk is over THERE..." Or "Welcome to the GUN SHOW..."? I can almost picture it now...:tongue:

    You do look fantastic. And as for earlier comments you made about maybe not being able to see a big difference between your 6-month pics... Are ya crazy?! HUGE changes in definition... You're doing awesome, and look like you're ready for becoming a certified trainer.:drinker:

    Well thanks Miss, oh, God, I laughed out loud at my desk. Gun show. LOL. I'm far to selfconcious to ever do something like that. But yeah, give it another month, to month and a half and I'm gonna get my cert (cross your fingers).

    LOL, you'd need a home gym, a computer, a 2 way microphone, and a webcam, cuz I only teach people I can see and yell at! I tend to follow the Jillian path as opposed to the Bob path (there's no sunshine and roses in my training, it's all red faced, screaming, and a lot of people calling me really nasty names) :tongue:
