 After chickening out in my mid-00's (00 years ago), I finally have decided it's time to take the plunge and attempt my first show. After life kept me out of the gym for 0 years, I went back seriously and giving this an honest go. The cut-diet scared me before and now I'm 0 weeks in: Meal 0: 00g Oatmeal w/Splenda Meal 0: Myoplex Meal 0: Fish, Chicken, or Turkey + 00g Oatmeal, Brown Rice or 0 c Sweet Potato (not a big lover of rice or sweet potato) Pre-workout: Whey Protein Meal 0 (PWO): Myoplex Meal 0: Fish, Chicken, or Turkey + 00g Oatmeal, Brown Rice or 0 c Sweet Potato Meal 0: Fish, Chicken, or Turkey + 00g Oatmeal, Brown Rice or 0 c Sweet Potato Supplements: Apex BCAA (0 tablets) Amino Acids (GNC Amino 0000) (0 tablets) AnimalPak (Taken before workout) Flax Seed oil (0 capsules) Apex L-Glutamine powder (0 scoops) Apex Fatburner 0 (0 tablets) ZMA (0 tablets) I hired a personal trainer who competes last summer and after a few months he suggested I drop him and come back as a workout partner. The diet came from him and is the one he does. I'm 0'0" and currently weighing 000.0. I started at 000 lbs last summer. I didn't get serious about the weight training until Oct 0000. I guess the best feeling was being told I was running a risk of dying of a heart attack back in 0000 and was wearing 00" pants and now I'm down to 00". I could go smaller, but cannot find them. I'm just nervous as heck about my upcoming show in May. What show are you doing? where do you live? and keep us updated bro!
