Fatstrong -.- Something a bit different for these forums

[walli]

Well a few months ago foe launched out health and fitness boards for the gym lovers and the fat/skinny noobs who wanted to become gym lovers. Its took off quite a lot with several people and il make this topic and maybe PW will get one and this can be moved there.

 

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

About me, well there has always been a general stigma attached to me from all those who do not know me from other clans which may be true may not. I will let you see for yourself. I am confident, arrogant, cocky however you want to define it and from a young age ive learnt to generally not give a sh*t =D.

 

I started to work out at the start of January 2011 and i was one lazy fat ****. I weighed in around 110kg / 242lb with to be honest not a great deal of it muscle. I was a complete ******* noob and felt like a ***** for my first few gym sessions struggling to bench 50kg / 110lb and being only to lift the most ****** dumbells the gym had :P

 

I was unfit and tbh, it affected my rugby game (i play rugby league) more than i actually imagined.

 

I'll throw up some pics now of around that time.

 

 

on the left ^^^^ but you guessed that already ;0

 

 

Anyway, i grafted and a few months down the line i had dropped to around 102-105kg and i was staying at the similar weight for a while because i was steadily losing fat whilst putting on muscle so the weight was staying at somewhat of a constant. I was getting stronger quicker though which made me feel tough

-.-

 

I got my bench up to around 80kg 2-3 rep max over the first 3-4 months and could Squat 100kg.

 

A pic i took for a foe forum topic around that time.

 

 

 

 

Then uni finished around that time and i started my summer cut. This was suprisingly enjoyable lol. Change dand fixed up my diet, did a lot of cardio but kept a lifting routine designed to increase strength rather than help burn the fat which some people said not to do but meh idgaf.

 

By the end of the summer i cut to around 95kg / 202lb but had got a lot stronger.

 

a pic i put on a topic around 2/3 of the way through summer.

 

 

 

Now i am back at uni, its been hard to maintain the diet and i have had 2 manic weeks with freshers fortnight and drank a ridiculous amount of alcohol which as u should know isnt the best lol. I have however gritted and beared the roughness and feeling like utter **** and done cardio and lifted and started preseason rugby training which has managed to keep me at around the 95kg weight mark.

 

My bench is now up to 105kg / 231lb 2-3 rep max and I am now squatting around 135kg / 297lb

 

=D

 

My current Goals are to cut down further to 90kg and maybe even below whilst getting stronger and maintaining as much muscle as possible. Rugby season is almost starting so **** should be interesting and a good goal to go for.

 

I will end with pics taken by me or of me over the last 2 weeks and i'll let you judge any progress ;0

 

This topic will also be a log im keeping, i do it on a couple of forums so il just throw it down on here too in future replies as to what im lifting and doing etc.

 

 

 

 

 

 

and some partymode pics =D

Eh, nice topic. Glad to see you found a work out which works for you.

 

When I read you was 105kg playing rugby I just thought how??? I play rugby union, have done now for 9 years, and the main difference between the two imo is the pace, league being a lot more fast paced, and union being a lot more physical, judging from those pics you are not the tallest person and to be playing league at that weight must of been hell lol.

[walli]

ayee i wasnt at my best but ive been playing since i was like 11 years old and i was class when younger playing for country and all the rest of the ****, was lighter and much fitter lol.

 

i stopped playing for a while, played union for a year or so at college but hated it tbh so as soon as i went to uni i was back playing league. Was just an average prop really nothing special.. this year my game is much better and i cant wait for season to start

[AndyIbeat]

yeah, I was quite good as a kid (in union) played county, then played for north west as a hooker.

 

Got hit with injury, back to playing for my local club in the second team, now building myself back up, maybe in a month or two I'll post a blog up like this, I like the idea.

[AndyIbeat]

Do you spend most of your day training? What I'm asking is how do you find fitting the gym into your lifestyle?

[walli]

Pretty easy when at uni because the gym is like 3-5 mins walk from my flat.

 

It is open 8am to 10pm but you dont wanna go between 3-6pm because full of curl bros, idiots and chinese.

 

I am only in for lectures like 2-3 hours a day max on busi days and some days im only in for an hour so then i just find a good time to go to the gym where i can spend a good 60-90 mins doing w/e workout.

 

Difficult at times balancing with rugby training because its no fun training rugby a bit sore but meh, u suck it up and do it anyway.
