I'm 6'5" and 15 months ago I weighed 360 pounds. One of my buddies is a personal trainer and fitness instructor, and I got some advice from him. Since then I've lost about 150 pounds of fat and put on about 30 pounds of muscle. The nutrition plan I'm on is called the Zone Diet, it calls for five meals a day with even ratios or proteins, carbs and fats, with higher protein intake following my workouts, which are 35 minutes five days a week- two cardio and three full body.
It's simple, non intrusive, and easy to follow. I can eat pretty much anything I want, honestly, and even still I get three "free meals" to play around with a week. The workouts are intense but I do them all from home using nothing but free weights and a chair.
Lawler, all of this reads fine and well in print, but for someone like me, I'd get lost and/or bored in all the technicalities of it all. I guess my min-maxing days are over, huh?

I think you meant to say, "bottom of the scale." :dance:

snatch and clean and jerk is a fair amount of leg exercise all the way around. Genetics plays a large role in the size of your legs and i doubt that lawler will come out looking any funnier than he already does.

I sure hope you plan to do something with yourself after these 8 weeks. Losing weight and gaining lean muscle means shit 6 months down the road when you're wolfing down Big Mac's.

Randal you truely are a delight. First you casually skim the information posted previously, recall false information(I have never posted my workout on these forums), then try to compare this routine to the only thing you know about fitness. Just because you use dumbbells for some rows and shoulder presses, does not a barbell complex based routine make. I would also like to thank you for being forth coming about your obvious weight problem(which probably stems from your inability to control impulses) as well as your current employment status. It really does let us know how worthless you have become.
Once my internet connection returns ill go more in-depth on the differences between this and p90x as well as share a few result photos if you feel they are necessary. I have gone from 240lbs to 190lbs. The aesthetic results I have achieved are still dwarfed by my bf% but the strength gains have been considerable.
started at
175lb squat to 225lbs
65lb ohp to 105lbs
105lb bench to 145lb
185lb deadlift to 255lb
Another thing to note is that prior to my recent weightloss(210-190) I lost quite a bit on all my lifts.
PS. You try very hard to type intelligently but you make glaring mistakes, please revise your future posts.
