Did you know?
Jerky is a good low carb, high protein food.

My main concern the first 4 weeks was muscle gain. Fat lose was secondary. I concentrated on heavy explosive movements to build mass.

Background


Changes Over A 12 Week Period

In starting my 12-week transition, first I had to find some kind of motivation. I felt the best way to motivate myself was to enter a before and after contest. I chose the EAS Body for Life challenge. Making this commitment gave me the motivation I needed to get the ball rolling. After the first four weeks it was not the contest or the cash prizes that kept me motivated, it was the fact that I was feeling so much better about myself, and had the support of my friends and family who I didn't want to let down.

Diet And Timing!
Not until recently did I realize the power diet has over the way your body looks and performs. I believe that diet is at least 75% of the fitness equation.

Finding Your Motivation!
I just kept my goals in mind and was constantly finding things to keep me motivated. I have made attempts in the past to get into shape, but for one reason or another I would always fall short of my goals.

My 12-week Transition Workout And Diet!
My main concern the first 4 weeks was muscle gain. Fat lose was secondary. I concentrated on heavy explosive movements to build mass. I wanted to keep my reps in the 6-10 range, mostly 3 working sets per exercise, and three 30 min. cardio sessions a week on the stepper or bike. I rested 2-3 minutes between sets.
