These pics are where i got to on part one of the diet.Part 2 follows in 3 weeks

Fine pair of legs there mate. They pretty much dominate your entire body!

Don't think much of your nappy though

Plenty of size there in the arms and legs but also a fair bit of BF still to come off, whats the plan bro? Looking a million times better than at the end of your bulk, nice progress

Those legs are monsterous Scott.

Is part 2 when you'll be starting or posting pics?

have to agree they do overpower the rest of you...which aint a bad think! powerful legs are good!

Part 2 is me now having abit more of a clue what works for me and what doesnt work.

Things that work
short intense training sessions
low carbs with clean re feed
hiit cardio after weights

things that don't work
volume
to much cardio
to many carbs
to much food on re feed days

In regard to the legs. I think thats a short persons "curse" if you will
Im looking forward to 2 weeks of holiday off training and hard dieting

It's good to see you now have a shortlist of what really works for you.

I find this really underlines as individuals have different we are and how we get on with very different protocols.

Your things that don't work list is virtually my things that do work list, for exampe.

some people may say that i havent lost much fat or i havent reached my goals. In my eyes i have learn't so much it unreal. How my body works is not how someone else might work. Its really such a learning experiance. The volume training made me feel so shit it was unreal

Big Legs Nice nappy in the first few shots - we have the same taste in microwaves

Thats the most important aspect nailed though in some respects. All you need to do now is just to apply the knowledge and be patient.

Any tips on getting a sweep like that Scott?

Unbelievable legs mate! Im surprised you have any fat on you with the amount of calories the muscle on those bad boys must eat away!

Sounds like 'you're sorted to be honest, you know what works for you and what you need to do, its just a matter of time now. Which is a lot more than can be said for a ton of those attempting to lose fat like myself.

Good luck with part 2 mate

For the sweep i can only say that i use a full range of motion and use heavy weights. Also 20 reppers work well. Im not of the belief you can change the shape of a muscle so make it as big as you can

There are few areas in the next phase that stump me a bit. Weekend eating. I struggle to get all these in and when i do they tend to be not ideal as i need a change from week day eating.
Cardio i will probably get 4 sessions a week which should be plenty as i will be low on cals. ALSO i tend to eat the same stuffat work all the time which can get dull o i need to get some new receipes

For your cardio mate, I'd mix up Steady state and tabata and for weekend food I wouldn't worry, have curry but sling half of the rice things like that... In general, just eat carbs around training and taper down towards te end of the day and none in your last meal. If you train late, just get carbs for breakfast(I believe it's essential but realise it's subjective) and then your usual pre/post routine.

Scott - looking at those side pics I think once you get rid of that fat your going to literally have a totaly new physique in terms of how it looks as yoy obv got some good dense muscle...which is very evident on the side poses with your shoulders etc..particularly with the last two pics

Its a hard fight to get it off mate. You go keto don't you?

Your physique reminds me of my own Scott, though you have a good 5% less BF id say, so im very interested in what you do diet wise as we look like we hold BF in similar places.

so you have endomorphic traits to mate. Say good bye to lots of carbs. That seem to be the way

Aye ive been told that, i really struggle to drop them tho, im trying to be smart with them at the moment rather than seeing them as the enemy, getting the majority of them at breakfast and PWO, and all of them clean, but its still a struggle.

If i did a bit of self psycho-analysis i'd probably diagnose myself with body dysmorphia as well which doesnt help, tho im not sure you could be aware of having something like that, so i probably dont.

Make sense of that if you can

Being an endomorph sucks like nothing else on this planet. Low carbs practically kill you and seem to the only damn way to get any fat loss.

@Mark, you can be aware of having body dismorphia, becoming aware of a problem like that is pretty much the first step to resolving it.

Looking good Galt

I can see definition starting to appear in your delts and the loss of weight makes your arms look bigger .

Your legs are crazy , no wonder jeans dont fit !!

And that nappy

Just got this on email and thought of scott.. not suggesting the rest of scott is mediocre of course
