4 hours?

You should try HIIT, I do around 18 minutes per day and that's enough.

yeah, do HIIT cardio. ^ You don't need to be running for 4 hours a day I only do like 20 min of it a day.

I'll try it, it's just that I'm so desperate, I need to look good in 30 days.

Oh, well if that works for you it's good because it's already accomplished I guess But maybe it would be good to find someone's body type you're shooting for, that way when you reach it you won't have those days where you think you look bad?

But yeah I was just curious since I think you're probably the biggest guy I've seen on this site? Besides fitness chanteur Scooby Doo, who rarely posts. Was just curious to see how close everyone is to their goals (I'm about 1/10th of the way there, if that )

WHAT IS HIIT?
HIIT is a training idea in which low to moderate intensity intervals are alternated with high intensity intervals.

HIIT can be applied to running or to exercises such as squatting. HIIT is considered to be much more effective than normal cardio because the intensity is higher and you are able to increase both your aerobic and anaerobic endurance while burning more fat than ever before.

"In research, HIIT has been shown to burn adipose tissue more effectively than low-intensity exercise - up to 50% more efficiently." It has also been shown to speed up your metabolism which helps you burn more calories throughout the day. (www.musclemedia.com)

I compete at nationals in Sydney for fitness and muscle model of the yr in 6 days and it cannot come soon enough! I prepped for state titles for 13 weeks and it will be another three weeks after that once nationals is on next weekend and I am so fatigued SInce my practice peak week 4 weeks ago I have been at 4% body fat and I cannot sustain it anymore lol

This time next week I'll be gorging on chocolate and icecream like my life depends on it which will make it worth it. Im more looking forward to that than going to SYdney for the first time or the possibility of winning lol

Last Carb day tomorrow too before I start my carb depletion and water loading so gotta enjoy them whilst i can

Anyone who knows how I can abstain from sugar. It's so hard for me.

Try natural sweeteners like stevia. I add two to my smoothie in the morning and one in my oats post weights. Tastes just like sugar but has no sugar and 0.4 kcal a serve.

I want to add more mass after this comp. My goal is to win (that sounds ignorant but Im a stubborn ****) every natural muscle model/physique competition (city, state and national) in Australia, then go up against the roid heads (but still natty). Ultimately I want to make the vegas team next yr and compete for Mr World at muscle mania and then go for my pro card with IFBB. Oh and be fitn and healthy inside and all that crap lol

sis can you post your diet? how many days per week you work out? and how long you've been training? like how many years?

Y'all are so obsessed with cutting out sugars in your diet. It's not necessary to do so. It's completely fine to cheat once in a while, you just need to restrict yourself from drinking and eating too much sugar.

This, I didn't cut sugar and my diet is fine

Right? You'll only deprive yourself of foods you like if you cut out that stuff completely.
We all know it's unhealthy, but as long as you eat your fruits, vegetables, your vitamines and your proteins, I don't see the problem

I only don't like sugars because of my teeth. I don't like staining them.

I also get acne when I drink sugary drinks thats why.

Happy to

This was/is my diet during comp prep. I'll increase the calories next week after my comp and do a reverse cut (slowly increase calories until my body adjusts and metabolism stabilises.

Meal 1 - breakie smoothie with protein powder, stevia, peanut butter powder, frozen berries, cup egg whites

Meal 2 - 150 g meat with salad

Meal 3 - 200 g meat with veg

Meal 4 (pre-workout) - 150 g meat with 150 g sweet potato

Meal 5 (post workout) - 1 cup oats, protein powder, maple syrup and stevia

Meal 6 - 200 g meat and veg

Meal 7 - low cal jelly or another shake

I workout every day, sometimes twice I love training though, best part of the day. Weights for only 3 years now
