Althugz 8 Week Transformation

I have kinda already completed this workout log but thought it might be of some interest and motivation to some people who are trying to drop weight.

I did all of this in 8 weeks and although it is not the best shape I've been in, it's not bad considering where I started on New Years Day.

I hope this inspires some people.

I basically used a combination of my own knowledge, what has worked for me in the past and some of Vince Delmonte's 'No Nonsense Muscle Building and Fat Cutting' Ebook techniques. (I own a website and thought it would be good to kill 2 birds with one stone by practically reviewing this ebook)

If you're interested in my stats before and after :- The first figure is my starting stat and the second is my finishing stat 8 weeks later

Waist : 35" -> 30.5 inches
Bodyfat : 16-17% -> 9%
Weight : 76kg -> 69kg
Arms : 14" -> 13.5"

I lost around 8% bodyfat and 7kg (15lbs) in weight. I did lose a slight amount of muscle in the last 2 or so weeks but overall I was happy with how it went.

Nice job man it feels good droppin weigh.

You can do it Pakeeyow. If it means enough to you, you'll get the dedication to do it :)

Well done Manuel, that's impressive! It does feel really good. I mainly did it because I'm a personal trainer and wanted to show my clients what can be done in 8 weeks with a bit of dedication. I swear most people come to me without the belief that they will see a result in the first place...doomed for failure if that's the case. I stop taking clients like that now (unless I can get the them to understand it's their responsibility how far they can go!).

It's not the best shape i've been in but then again I didn't do much boxing training this time round. Take it from me, you guys are half way there if you're incorporating boxing training into your routines. Nothing will get you more shredded. The intervals and body conditioning elements are perfect for fat loss. I only really did bag work in my final weeks. It was on my own as well - not in a club environment like I'm used to.

P.S. Manuel, go ahead with your picture. You must be proud of your achievment :)
