Pictures of me at the start of this program:
Being its the first day of this very long journey, I am going to state that my mood is optimistic and hopeful. I am very eager to tackle the challenge and looking forward to being help accountable.
For my exercise program, I chose to do a 3 day split of PPL. This is a push (chest/shoulder/tricep), pull (back/bicep/traps) and legs. This means that Monday and Thursday I do pulling related lifts, Tuesday and Friday I do pushing related lifts and Wednesday and Saturday I do leg lifts. I will try to do some ab work each day. Sundays being the days for rest.
Today's lift program is pushing related lifts.
Bench press
Cable fly
Decline Bench
Overhead Press
Land Mines
Side raises
Skullcrusher
Rope Pull Down
Cable crunches
The supplements that I am taking are really simple and are geared towards helping me recover from the workouts and give me a boost in energy.
I will take the following:
Multi-Vitamin
Fish Oil
CLA
L-Carnitine
Pre-Workout before
I will update in tomorrows blog of the food and calories that I ate today.
Please leave a comment if you have anything to add or see a mistake that I am making as all input is very appreciated.
Shave you beard it would be minus 1.5 pound :D Good luck ! Be carefull with you spine! Do some aerobic trainig like cyclic or orbitrec(x-trainer). Also you can buy BCAA. Vitamins are very important while you are on diet you need to get rid of free radicals

You're going to succeed. Looks like you already have a lot of muscle for a good head start. One day at a time. If you "blow it" ok, get back on track and keep taking one day at a time. Before you know it you'll wonder who that is starring back st you in the mirror!
You got this bro!
