Alright lads. This is one of my usual 'stream-of-thought-posts-with-an-underlying-question' so bear with it [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
Have started working out again. My goal is to end up with the physical appearance of a professional heavyweight boxer. Or a wrestler (one of the stupid ass WWE ones [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]). Id also like arms like the singer from The Dillinger Escape Plan. That dude is built lol.
Anyway, Im a fairly big guy (5'10, 210lbs) and I'm overweight. I want to lose weight before I build myself up, cos I dont want flabby muscles, or new good muscles being built onto a fatty frame. Ive got broad shoulders and a big ass runs in the family [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
Ive been doing mainly CV stuff at the gym in the past two weeks since I started going again but Im tempted to start doing more free weight type stuff. My mate's brother is a personal trainer and I got him to draw up a bit of a workout thing for me and its pretty good. I alternate between that and the gym. The thing is though this workout will build me up before Ill lose weight. I mean already my (upper) arms are quite good when I tense them (from stuff Ive done in the past and general work), but theres no tone. When relaxed they're just flabby big guy's arms.
I'll drink moderately one to two nights a week (I know, I know, alcohol will ruin me), I dont smoke and I eat healthily. No junk food, no snacks. My only downfall has been lack of exercise and Im sorting that out. And possibly I eat an evening meal at around 5-6 and then I eat something before I go to bed, like some toast or something, usually because Im hungry. I dont eat that much, and I have thinner friends that can eat me under the table. A lass I know can eat more than me and shes like 5'0, size 6-8 -she'd be a size 6 if she didnt have a nice curvy ass (calm down Bill) and she eats more than me.
Anyway, If you guys have any advice or anything that'd be great.
