I'll post my stats tomorrow. However, there will probably be no changes from last month. Over the past month I've been resting my knee and I've only had spotty attendance at the gym. My x-ray results on my knee did come back and I do have some arthritis, but no bone chips.
Over the past several weeks, I HAVE been working my a$$ off outside doing Spring yardwork. I'll count that towards a "functional" routine.
With two months left, I may be able to get back into this Challenge with some changes in my routine. But Bill, Jugglecat & Gobbla will be hard to beat.
Since I just had the BodPod fat testing done half-way through this month (17.8% BF), I am disregarding most of what I posted before. But using the Omron handheld to track progress, I would guess I am down about 1% from last month.
I have been the most consistent about lifting this month, but don't really see and "real" changes. Maybe I am bias.
My plan for this month is to start NROL Fat Loss I and lifting on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday. That should complete phase I just before the Fitness Summit. I am going to increase my calorie intake from 1800-2000 to around 2200-2400 calories. I think I have been eating too little to see really muscle development.
Thoughts?????
J-cat: Holy Shit dude! Your kicking-ass, if I could finish this competition, half as ripped as you are now, I would feel like a champion. Nice frickin' work!!!!
Bacardio, I see alot of improvement in your pics. Your stats prove that your making great progress. As far as doing the Fat Loss or the Hypertrophy routines, I say go w/which ever one you "feel" like doing. The one that you're more into and motivated for, will always be the best one to choose. Just my opinion. And thanks alot for the compliment.
I too think the contest is still anyones game at this point. I alot can happen w/2 months of hard work.
Not totally sure how RL normally does his pics, but I am not searching to find his Jan pics...you can all just live with this until he gets here (tomorrow) to fix it.
Can you take out the trash? Is the meat cooked right? Why haven't you taken out the trash? This is 2%. I said get milk, why'd you get 2%? Is that your sock behind the hamper? Did the kids brush their teeth? Is that really what you wore to the store? Did the kids actually brush their teeth? Are you riding this saturday? Is that all the meat you want? Is it overcooked or something? Because my mom asked for help hanging pictures and I told her I didn't think you'd be riding. The trash smells a little bit, did you use a new bag? Oh, can you not eat all of that meat, I want some for my salad tomorrow. See, now their socks are on the floor, too. The recycling bin is full. Can you make sure to get them to pick up the socks when you check their teeth?

You wish it was that easy to lay the blame on me! You're all just lazy (except the four that post pics in a timely fashion)!

Dayum! If I ever sounded like that I'd divorce me too LOL. Can I borrow this? It's got the makings of a classic little dis...
Sorry about being a bit late - few problems here at ranch 'kop' over the last few days. Back at in my gran's 'restroom'.
Not the best pics of my actual state at the mo but yeah - sinking like the Titanic here

Late as always, here's my stats and pics:
Wt: 224lbs (-6lbs)
Bf: 11.5% (-2.5) had to do it myself w/calipers so might not be exact
Cutting phase is kicking ass so far better watch out I've still got plenty of time to get ripped. Kicking it up a notch this comming week, and also adding in the Hot Rox.
I can't figure out the stupid photo bucket sizing or how to line the pics up on the page so just deal with it
