bader85's 2012 Contest Transformation Log

[bader85]

I like it on the elliptical. Real easy on my knees but I still go all out, make no mistake. I'm leaning over the machine gasping for air after each sprint.. I really like doing quick HIIT sessions. That and stairs and I'm thinking the fat will keep coming off. 6 more weeks or something like that? I gotta bust my ass I I want any abs this time. Sub 15% would be awesome.

Haha. Going to try again this wk

When it comes to cardio I always hated running, probably because I had to do it all the time in the army, now I can't run thanks to my foot condition so I just hit the bag, and my aerobic capacity has never increased so quickly. I think the most important thing with cardio is that you enjoy it. Otherwise you won't put in 100% and you'll find excuses to skip it.

Heavy bag all the way bro.
The little bouncy one you mean? There's the speed bag and the floor to ceiling ball. both good cardio but heavy bag is where you can push yourself the most.

Was pretty tired and my grip was really sore today, my wrists/elbows got really sore. I'm lowering my AI dosage to see if that helps, seemed really weak in the joints.

Weighed 251, but not noticing much difference in my fatty areas.

Yeah.. my elbows are super stiff, felt like bone on bone of those tricep ext. I could of went way higher but elbows were killing me.
