OK, I am a huge failiure thus far. Day one and I was doing great and then went to babysit my nephew and ate a bunch of cookies and pizza! Arrgh. I did go to the gym and do a great arm work out, and tomorrow my nutrition plan is for real on.

The beginning

After weighing myself this morning and weighing the same as I did 2 weeks ago when I started my new body transformation program I become frustrated and determined to make something work. Especially since I have a $100 bet with my little brother Cade on the line. He is 155 LBS and is trying to get to 165 LBS(without changing body fat %) I am 199 LBS and trying to get to 180 LBS, all by the time my baby is born(due date july 1st)

Determined I got online and started reading some fitness blogs, this one in particular http://www.burnthefat.com and came read about the importance of accountability. One of the things they suggest is going public like this guy They have a contest going on but you have to buy their program for $67 so I don't want to do that but I am going public.

This is my Tim's Bangin Body Blog, Where I will post pics, and track my progress. I expect you readers to keep me in check, hold me accountable. I will post my current stats, and track progress each week. Give me crap if I have bad week, put me in line. I am using this fitness and nutrition log to keep me in line, click here and use it yourself.

Each week I will post my weight and a picture, every 2 weeks I will post some of my measurements.

Tim Beck:

Weight: 199 LBS

Measurements:

Waist: 37

Chest: 40

Hips: 41.5

Neck: 15

Bicep: 16.5

Calf: 15

Thigh: 23

My goal is to be 180 LBS by the time the baby is born, have a 33-34 inch waist, and gain muscle, my longer goal is to get under 10% bodyfat, but since I don't have calipers I have no way to check.

To achieve this goal I am going to implement the following diet and exercise regimen:

restrict my caloric intake to 1300-1700 Calories a day comprising of 40-45% protein, 35-40% carbohydrates, 20-30% fat. I will post each week my average daily caloric consumption along with the percentages.

Weight Training: 3-4 times a week 40-45 min. training all muscle groups. Today I will post the weight of each major exercise in which I fail between 4-6 reps. I will post this again every 2 weeks. This way you and I can see if I am getting stronger as well.

Current/ Goal

Bench Press: 185 LBS/225 LBS

Squat: 225 LBS/300 LBS

Lat Pull down: 185 LBS/215 LBS

Dumbbell Shoulder Press: 70 LBS each dumbell/75LBS 8-10 reps

Barbell Bicep curl: 90 LBS/105 LBS

Tricep Headbanger: 90 LBS/105LBS

Cardio: 3-4 times a week for 20 min. high intensity, preferably in the morning before eating.

Doing this plan should get me to my goals. The problem is sticking to it, I love chocolate and candy and cake and pie and fried foods and etc etc. The point of this blog is to help me with accountability by posting my progress to the world. Help me folks, or better yet lets help each other, make your own blog.
