I'll post it openly because it may be beneficial to someone else.

Obviously, the first thing I did was clean up my eating. The first month or two, I was at school, so it was turkey sandwhiches that I ate primarily. At home during the summer, my diet was something very similar to:

2 big bowls of Cheerios
Milk
probably a bananna or two

2 lunchmeat sandwhiches(real lunchmeat, if there's such a thing, not that packaged bullshit. The stuff you have to get the angry bitches to cut for you)
Little bag of goldfish crackers or pretzels
2 banannas

"Energy bars" (is what they were called. Merely a hunk of whole grain bread with fruits and nuts in it.)

Usually a bunch of dead pheasant or chicken. Typically stir-fryed and served with rice.

sometimes i would eat a little ice cream, too.

My training pretty simple, too. 4 sets of 5 repetitions on all exercises.
Monday and Thursday were chest and back
Tuesday and Friday were legs and arms

Wednesday and Sundays were off days and, many times, I would repeat one of the days on Saturday, so sometimes I was doind the exact same workout(including heavy squatting) two days in a row.

The days would have looked something like this:

Leg/arms:

Squats
extension
curls
straight bar curls
cambered bar curls
pressdowns
close grip
probably something els

Chest/back/shoulders:

Flat
Incline
Decline
Chins
Deads(done improperly at the time. More of a RDL than anything)
Rows
Military presses
lateral raises
rear lateral raises

Where I got the energy from, I dont' know. I think it came down to the quintissential aspect of anybody's success. Instead of being of the mindset that I would "like" to be lean and muscular, I was of the mindset that I "WANT" to be lean and muscular.

I had a big poster of Arnold on the wall and I would imagine how big of a fat fucking pussy he must think I was. Also, probably the biggest help, was my little friend Mary. When I was 305lbs with a 4 month long beard, wearing dirty jeans, rainbow suspenders and combat boots, I managed to pick up a 5'7" 110lb girl with abs. How the fuck does that happen?!?! Mainly because she was a really cool girl.

Anyhow, I was still pretty new to the whole thing, so despite her telling me that she wanted to be friends with benefits and the fact that the first night I met her out(had previously met her through an acquaintance) I ended up sleeping in her bed, I kept thinking that I was physically unworthy of the girl and I had to be in good shape to be able to get naked with her.

That sort of bit me in the ass and some other dude stole her because I wouldn't give it up. LOL We hung out all the time and all, but she was dorking some other guy.

Anyway, now that story time is over, you ask if I thought it was too much being ther 4 or 5 times a week. No, I didn't. I progressed almost every week. Why? DESIRE. I simply refused to be tired, sore, unmotivated, etc. Quite frankly, I'm not even sure I knew overtraining existed. I still think it's mostly a bunch of shit.

However, I would never do such a silly workout again. Far too much emphasis on "stupid" exercises, but that's what happen when you read the FLEX without the Meso.

So that's it in a nutshell. Good nutrition(not by BB standards, but by "normal" standards) and ass-busting, balls out workouts. I don't think I rested for more than a minute between each set, tops. It was a weight and cardio workout all in one. I'd be breathing almighty heavily.

edit- Also, I was working in a warehouse that summer, so I always made sure I was the guy at the end of the colation line throwing the heavy boxes around for more exercise.

No, it was a Gold's Gym routine. But now they've changed to Diamond Fitness and I can no longer go to that place. I think it's my new rule. I will never go to somewhere with "fitness" in the name. Even if the place is called Beastmonster Fitness, I won't go because simply by adding the word "fitness" it's clear they're trying to cater to lazy fat people who will buy a 12 month membership and only come in for 1 month and bitches. And bitches don't need to be catered to. They need to be slapped around.

Now, MY new "Lifetime Fitness" workout should be great. Tell you what, though, she's out of her mind if she thinks I'm dancing. I don't dance with or around black people.(two weeks ago doesn't count. ) I know damn well they're laughing at me. "Look at whitey go! Mofucka ain't gots no rythym! Bwahahahahahaha!"

But I bet she'll be great to train with at times. We can run together and stuff. Probably from our parents who are chasing us to beat us for the whole black/white thing. LOL

Ahh that's alright Griz, I love my fitness center. Especially on Fridays since everyone's at happy hour. I have plenty of room to roam. I'll get my favorite pilates mat as well as my favorite eliptical trainer. LOL! Yea, I don't dance. I guess I did in the beginning, I probably thought I was good at it back then. Actually, I was probably just figuring I had to dance if I was going to hook up. I'm just glad no video has surfaced yet. I can two step well enough, that's required here you know.

Oh yeah, I'll do white people dancing, but the booty shaking shit is off limits.
