MFP 8 week cutting challenge

FoxyMcDeadlift

Me and a few buddies are a bit special, and have been bulking all summer, sad lonely creatures that we are, and with Winter coming, its obviously time to cut. Who fancies joining our MFP 8 week cutting challenge? You might be a beginner, just starting their weightloss journey, you might be 50, or 100lbs in, you might be in a plateau and in need of support. Join us!

The rules are simple

Take a before picture.
Cut for the next 8 weeks
No naughty business with the steroids and the ECA
take a after picture

Any suggestions or input welcome, we want MFP to be the judges, we can have some little awards if we get enough people, most excercise, most weight lost, most aesthetic etc etc....

Lets Cut!

I dont get this img stuff! I quit!

CarsonRuns

It's not you. It's Imageshack.

In Imageshack, click on the image to enlarge. Then right click the image and select Properties and then, for IE, copy the URL that is on the properties dialogue that pops up. In Chrome, you select "Copy Image URL".

Imageshack is making it difficult to create hard links.

Will you be my secretary? Cheers! Anyone else joining in?

I'd rather teach a man to fish.

See above for an explanation.

<---Subjective judge
Full body front, back, and both sides for before and after would be nice! Makes my job easier

How the hell am I suppose to test for steroids or ECA though? I don't have that kind of lab equipment in my hands! 8 Weeks, meh, things won't change just overnight I suppose. Be good boys and girls...promise? I can tell if you are lying if you show your face! (Hah, be good Foxy!)

Start/Stop dates? Well whatever, post your pics when you got 'em.

How about some Objective categories too? Let's just go with weight and Bodyfat% (done using proportion scales since it's easiest)...more winners, less losers this way...everyone gets a trophy just like little league!

Oh BTW, I judge Aesthetics (Symmetry, definition, flexion)>>>Size, this is natural so size doesn't matter
