Check my phone interview @ GymJunkies.com

Hey beasts and stettes,

As you know we won the May GymJunkies.com challenge in on June 1.  And yeah, since this is my site…ill say it….I WON.  It was no tie.  I just don’t have as many friends as some people do.

Anyhow…yeah, i’m bitter, i’m greedy and I have allot of pride.  If im your trainer, you should not want it any other way.

I want and need to be the best, and so do you.  I want you to be the best too…

Im a fuckin animal, a psycho…a BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAST!!

Stay the fu** outta my way, and I suggest you get on board.  Soon…the hate will turn to pure jealousy.  Make sure we are clear…there is a difference between anger and HATERS.  You know what it is, and who you are.  Keep hatin..

The sound is a little low, so bare with me.  I should have used a better phone…just use the volume, up and down..

Art of War II: Losing Fat

Avoid what is strong, attack what is weak. – Sun Tzu

The diet foe is strong, against me.  The workout foe is weak.  What is your weakness and   strength?  If you hate to workout, but you can eat lettuce all day- then your just the      opposite as me.  Your diet foe would be weak.   

I still need to avoid the ‘dieting’ battles with the challenge, and it seems now more than ever.  I slacked off some, and got attacked.  Give in a pinch and lose a pound! Literally.  The physical issues affecting the workouts are fine and I have fruit for the rest of the week, I can hold strong and probably lose another 4 or 5 pounds by the end of the challenge.  I have already planned a week of rest, walking, light bike riding, light swimming, and active stretching and recovery.  I have fought hard to get the results.  Getting results is simple, but not easy!   And- No, I did not take any diet pills or do any miracle cleansing diet.  Actually, I ate more fruit vegetables and meat than I have ever in my life.  

It’s time to stick to the plan the last 5 days without fault and reap the results I deserve.  Once again, the goal stands at a weight loss of 15lbs in 31 days!  And I shouldn’t have to say it- but NO- I am not dehydrating myself, I am consuming mass water.  My urine is clear all day!  Everyone knows that water is the ‘magical weight loss potion’ but most people don’t use it as such.  

So, avoid what is strong.  For me anyhow…

  • Don’t put yourself in places where temptation is rampid.
  • Water is your friend, probably your best friend.
  • Fruit and veggies have worked.  Stock up and eat at will.

Attack what is weak.  My back seems good after the strain.

  • Crank up the intensity for the initial workout. Extra Mental toughness workout daily.
  • Brief metabolism starter workouts upon waking.
  • Arrange workouts remaining in order to have more Outdoor workouts and no Day off.

This is my applying of Sun Tzu’s “Avoid what is strong, attack what is weak”.  Apply your own goals and set the bar high.  If you take the time to understand and set mini accomplishment goals to help you on the way, you can acheive any weight loss goals you have!!  You just have to remember; Whatever your present condition or weight is now, it didn’t happen overnight, and changing it will not either.

 

Keep at it, have a plan, and stick to it!  And read the Art of War when you have time…

Art of War: Losing Fat

“Winning 100 battles is not skill, subduing the enemy without fight is.”

Like I have said plenty of times before, I do not like dieting and I do not like temptation.

Three days left, I have 3 days to lose 5 lbs of body fat.  I will and can lose 5 lbs in 3 days with my simple plan.

To win without a fight will take;

  • Staying active, crush the ‘hungry cuz bored’ syndrom.
  • Cutting carbs from dairy.  The post workout drink I had was leading to other ‘cheats’.  I will just use a normal protein shake to repair muscles and some food and water to replenish carbs and water loss.
  • Measuring each coffee additive, I will add one measured tbsp of half and half.  Thats 1.5g of fat.
  • Every workout must be intense to the point of exhaustion, replenish and not be hungry.
  • Stock up for a week.  I cannot be without fruit on hand to snack.  Dont let yourself be temptd by some candy.
  • Stay clear of food smells.  I will avoid all fast food situations where the smell alone can break down my discipline.

I do not want to fight the diet foe.  I must subdue the enemy without fighting.

The challenge is on its last week.  I have lost 10 lbs so far in 3 weeks.  However, I was down 12 lbs a few days ago.  The plan to lose 15 lbs by the end of the challenge is still in place.

That will be a total fat loss of 15 lbs in 31 days!!  I am ready to battle, with the mind.
