Hi!

[fit4sure]

Hi. This is my second post. I 'd like to introduce myself.
I started training back in 2003, but had to quit due to illness. I was a certified pt and aerobics instructor, so I know quite a bit about fitness and nutrition. I plan to get back into the business in2009.

I started training again in April, due to weight gain. I started lifting weights seriously in May. My weight is 117lb at 19% bf.
My goal overall is to get a lean, fit hard body and compete in 2009. My short term goal is to get down to 16% by next month and gain some more muscle.

I am here to learn more about training, to have a community of like minded fitness geeks, and to learn more about anabolic steroids and other aids. I don't know if I am going to try them, I just want to be well informed, so I can make good decisions as a competitor and trainer.

My PCF is 40/40/20 which I keep track of using the Zone Blocks technique.

I weight train 4 days a week and do cardio using HIIT 6 days a week.

Thanks in advance for your help and support!

P.S. I give Karma back, to people who welcome me!

Greetings and welcome to the best bodybuilding website bar none . You will definitely find the info . you need on the EF website . I believe that you will need to address your hormonal balance if you are going to be conducting high volume of HIIT . Six days of hiit is a lot and stands a good chance of producing a lot of cortisol which in turn will cause a lot of havock in your attempt to lose body fat . This is just my 2.5 cents but I do pride myself on research in fat loss . You may consider to rebalance your diet into a higher protein and fat ratio with a 10-20 % caloric deficit from Mon-Fri. and on Sat. and Sun. eat regular with more prefferably complex carbs . So the ratio would be 50-20-30 . The fats should come from medium chain triglycerides , virgin olive and fish oils . To address your hormonal balance look into maca , the best one is the Peruvian organic one . You may also consider ephedra caffeine aspirin stack provided your physiology is tolerant towards it . Again the secret is to be able to cycle it . Anyways i always get excited when people embark on a fat loss program . GOOD LUCK AND BE PATIENT . I AM ROOTING FOR YOU.

welcome to EF fit4sure! good luck with your goals!

 

[fit4sure]

thank you for your detailed advice. right now i take a cox-2 inhibitor supplement and i just bought some ephedra hcl. i used to want to do natural tested shows, but when I found out you can't even take ephedra hcl, i gave that up quick. i think they may be going to far with all of the stuff they are banning, i mean how natural do you need to be, really.

Anyway, this week i decided that i was overtraining and would do steady state cardio 3 times and week and HIIT 3 times a week. so i think we are on the same page.

what is MACA?
