From 175 lbs to 175 lbs...
Or, "Why the scale doesn't matter" lol On the left, September of 2012. When I was 175 lbs, fat, and started lifting because I was sick of what I saw in the mirror. On the right, June of 2017. Once again at 175 lbs. I am 5'8" tall. Been as low as 152 and as high as 192. Not yo-yo dieting, just using bulk/cut phases to add…

CFP top 25
What are your thoughts? Yes, I am biased as an Auburn fan. That said: Who is in (at this point) #1 Mississippi St #2 Florida St Can't argue their placement in the top two, being undefeated. Many will argue not swapping them, but honestly that is just symantics. They win out, they are in the playoff. That is really all that…

So. Butts.

I'll be happy when I'm fit/shredded/skinny/whatever
No, you won't. This is a great article I stumbled across that I think should be required reading for everyone beginning their fitness journey. http://www.fitocracy.com/knowledge/the-six-pack-of-unhappiness/

What's your theme song?
And why that song? It could be a song that inspires you. Or maybe it's that one song that you swear could have been written about you. Or whatever reason that song stands out as being your theme. For me, I would have to say Lee Brice - When the Whiskey Used to Burn. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_tzPl1xyD1Y I don't…

Vanilla Protein Pound Cake
So I have been bored that last couple of nights while my kids were visiting their mom, and I decided to play in the kitchen. While trying to make an extremely simple apple butter protein bread/cake/whatever, I accidentally came up with a REALLY good vanilla pound cake. 1/2 cup cake flour 2 scoops vanilla protein powder 1/2…

Swat came in to my house
Disrespected my whole family, because somebody narc'd me out! And you know what? IT WAS YOU!

Men and women, are you interested in curves...
...or do you prefer your roads straight? Straight roads get really boring, especially on my motorcycle.

Do women really go for guys in bands?
You always hear how women dig a guy in a band. But I don't really think so. I was in a band in high school, and I still never had a date. When I tried to use it to my advantage, it generally went like this: Me: "Hey, wanna come hear my band Friday night?" Her "Maybe, what's the name of your band?" Me: "Marching" Her:…

Funnest two items to purchase together
What is the funnest, most entertaining two items you can think of to purchase at once? I once went to Wal-Mart and just purchased condoms and a dog collar. The look on the casheirs face was priceless!

Feedback on my bulking routine
Been cutting fat for several months doing a 5 day split hitting everything 1x per week. Changing to a 6 day split hitting everything 2x per week (push/pull/legs/repeat) for my bulk, focusing more on compound movements with some isolation thrown in. Resting on sundays. Anybody notice any areas I may be missing, any muscle…

First round of losing fat: done!
I have come to the end of my first round of cuting fat. While I started working out and "eating healthier" in September, I didn't actually start tracking my calories and macros until I joined MFP in late January. As such, I only lost 4 pounds those first five months. The rest has occured since the last week in January.…

100 days of MFP
I have never made a "success" thread, as I am not anywhere near my goal body yet. However, I am nearing the end of my weight loss, and then I will start adding lean mass (i.e. building muscle). I just decided that, since today is my 100th day here on MFP, I would look back at, and share, what kind of changes I have seen.…

Should I end my diet and start bulking?
I need some more opinions on this, as I am having a hard time making up my mind. I have been doing a five day split lifting Monday through Friday. Also, I have been on a diet the last three weeks, eating 1350-1550 calories per day 5 days per week, and between 1800 and 2200 on the weekends. In that three weeks, I have gone…
