Here is my normal face. Actually I have a beard now. Let it grow for the past 5 weeks or so. :icon_mrgreen:

And like I said, I will post some shots of my quads/hams/glutes. I don't really know what my bodyfat levels are, so I'm just guessing, @ 7-8% maybe.



This was from the 10th week of dieting.

These 2 are more recent, 1-2 days ago.

 

[tkD]

And finally the Roelly/Phil tricep striations are coming in nicely. From the first day when I first started bb, triceps where my fav bodypart. That's why my fav. bb'ers when it comes to arms are Roelly/Kevin/Phil/Flex. I really tried everything I've seen in the mags/videos/articles to bring them up and I will continue to work on them until they will be my best/freakiest bodypart (next to delts).

I'll post both pics with the flash on and off. In the natural lighting they look way better, and you can see more striations, but as you know some pics/quality don't show you everything.

Anyways, here are a few pics:


From last week. @ the start of the 11th week.

From yesterday, at the end of the 11th week of dieting.

Great work both photos and looking like you do... again I am toooooooooo lazy to even imagine getting in that condition without goals/aspirations to get on stage... I really think you should set some sort of competition related goals too!

 

[mvsf1]

Wow. Amazing drieness. Veins in the quads? That's still a dream for me.

 

[tkD]

After several weeks - 6+ weeks - with NO cheat meals, not even once, today I was thinking that is time for one haha. The reason for staying so focused and concentrated on my diet was to test my limits, my discipline. To see how bad do I want it, and how much can I stay on my diet. I could have gone at least 1-2 weeks more without any cheat meals, but I said what the hell, I deserve it, so I had a large turkish pizza kebab with all the salsa's available. :icon_mrgreen:


All the meat is covered in different salads, tomatoes..etc. It was amazing lol!

I like pizzas as cheat meals from my diet also but i like it simple...............a simple mozzarella chesse pizza

 

[dilatedmuscle]

Your skin is thin as hell. You look great, Inspirational.

Although it looks like you have Synthol.

 

[pakiman]

Although it looks like you have Synthol.

Bphahahaha

I like pizzas too... all the time and hence I look like Arnold on the beach... unfortunately the very recent Arnold on the beach and not the late 70s one

I'm not planing on competing and such, mainly because I'm extremely critique with myself. As a natural I have a lot to improve to look better, and first I have to look awesome for myself to step on a stage lol. Feeling like I'm way too skinny for my height, especially If I would compete. In a few years though, and maybe going on the "dark" way :icon_mrgreen:, I'd like to try it at least once to see how it goes. Also, if I'm not feeling like I have a chance to win, then why bother?

A few years ago, back in 2007 when I was doing kickboxing, after only a year of training my coach waspushing me, saying that I should compete, that I'm ready, I'm doing great bla bla. I felt like I wasn't ready back then, and didn't really want to step in the ring, but I did it for my coach in the end. The results was 3rd place from 8 guys, in the -80 kg class (I was 78kg), and I was not happy at all. I lost to a guy who had 7 years of competitions experience, and he also won the my class&overall. So that's why, I'm a huge critique of myself. When I think I will look good enough, then I will compete to win.

Thanks Martin!

Man, after years of training, motivation, coming especially from bb vids and such, I actually tried to visualize like most bb'ers are saying (Arnold, Levrone, Kai..etc), and see myself how I'd like to. Visualizing myself, ripped and with veins on my quads. That was my goal since May 2012 or so. After only 1 month of focusing on the quads, and a clean diet, I've seen the first 2 veins in my right quad. Then, those results helped me even more, motivating me to go for more, and not quitting, so after the 7-8th week of dieting, I could see a lot of veins in my quads. Trust me, no matter how hard it was the diet, it's such an amazing feeling when you know you've accomplished your goals. :icon_mrgreen:

So keep visualizing and train hard!

Thanks Luis!!

So, guys, I was thinking if some of you are interested, I could make this thread something like a Q&A with me, and you can ask anything related to diet/training and so on.

Also I was thinking about posting pics with some of my meals. I have a lot of them since 2010 haha. Lots of cheat foods, and also some clean, diet meals.



Food porn! :icon_mrgreen:

First question - and a annoying one: what's your diet like?

 

[tkD]

First question - and a annoying one: what's your diet like?

In the last 2-3 weeks, my diet is like this: 5 meals per day, 2 of them with carbs (before and after training), and the other 3 are only protein and green vegetables, + fruits between the meals and a few almonds.

Sometimes I have a total of 6-7 "meals", but those are just extra shakes. I have them only when I'm too lazy cooking something lol.


Protein sources: chicken breast, egg whites, tuna, white fish, and from time to time some red meat (I find it hard to digest and for some reason I feel bloated after I eat it)
Carbs: brown rice, potatoes, oats.

Fats: The only fats I have are those that come with the protein, like the omega 3/6's from the fish, or the ones from the chicken, tuna, almonds etc.. the good fats. So it's more like a high protein, low-high carbs (including the high carb day), low fats diet.

how did you training split looks like ?

 

[tkD]

how did you training split looks like ?

I change my training from week to week at times. For example my "normal" split is:

Monday - Chest & Triceps
Tuesday - Legs
Wednesday - rest (or just 30-40 mins of cardio)
Thursday - Back, delts and biceps
Friday - cardio again, depending on how my energy levels are..etc
Saturday and Sunday - rest.

I throw in 2-3 ab exercises each day, for about 3-4 sets, and that's it.

Lately I've been changing the back workouts on Tuesdays, a light Shoulder day on Wednesdays, and legs on Thursdays. Like I said, depending on how I feel I change them around. One week I will start with legs, then chest, the other week, with back, legs.. and so on. Also there are times when Friday, I might do another chest workout since chest is my lagging bodypart. On this second chest workout I do different exercises comparing to the previous chest day, higher reps..etc.

At the start of the diet, back in January, the cardio was 15 mins at the end of the workout, except leg days. Then without cutting the carbs, I've added 5 more mins (20 mins total), and so on. These past 2 weeks I'm at 40 mins of cardio, 4-5 days per week.
