day 84: 12 week of M1 completed

G' day shredders,




Today, as you know, it's time for a Big reveal: the result of 12 week rtp transformation! But lets remember the story so far:


Before entering university, I fell in several months of a terrible depression. For sure it was not as long as Adam's "chaotic way" but I had lost certain friends, I felt alone and had problems at work. A couple of things, including a painful past, had broken me down. After several weeks at the university, I felt in a better socialy situation, but always physically exhausted. Moreover, my physical appearance didn't satisfied me and I couldn't complete no more than 8 push-up (of course, no pull-up, no dips...). I was in a bad way...


One year ago I decided to change and bought two barrels of 22lbs. I crushed my arms and I started running. It was finally possible to complete 25/30 push-up, I was satisfied but some pictures I received from my China trip this summer (2007) reminded me a reality: I got a lot of work!


Several weeks later, I bought a fabulous book called "méthode lafay" explaining how it's possible to build a strong and athlectic physique only with bodyweight training and...it works!


Since 84 days, I'm practicing this program completed by that of "Iwantsixpackabs". You are going to discover how it works on me! I also performed 3 HIIT trainings a week. 3round at the beginning and 6rounds today. My cardio have progressed in a good way.

I can't say that my life has changed in a radical way because when I'm dressed I get the same physical appearance but all is based on a feeling of a pure nrj, a feeling of fulfillment: proud to reach a goal!


Posting to this blog and taking daily pictures has played an essential part in this success and for this I would have to thanx Adam Waters, a sincere, natural, intelligent and dynamic person who has introduced the daily picture concept, ty Adam we are grateful...




Nevertheless I didn't especialy recommend to post every day if you want to create a blog like me but it depends of your self-determination: are you sure that 2post a week would be enough? or would you have to post daily picture to make sure that you gonna succeed? it's all about you but remember that if you think it's time for you to fight for your dreams...don't wait for tomorrow!




Now let's introduce the BIG reveal that everyone is looking about: there is a BIG picture of me taken yesterday and "before/after" pictures. So, I would apreciate a short comment to tell me if it's or not a six pack and what physical point seems important to develop ^^



I can't post a bigger one...IS THIS A SIX PACK?

12 Week abs and fat loss Challenge

Start: February 9, 2008

Finish: May 3, 2008

Day 84 of 84

Now, I have to introduce the next for goals for M2:

My first goals were to loose fat and get the abs. I don't know if I have really succeeded but I know that I have made all the sacrifices for it. NOW, I don't want to do the past mistakes: I want to build a strong muscular appearance even if I have to get some fat, today I know that I can loose it. So, my next goal would be to increase my pecs, my arms, my shoulders, as I explained it 3days ago into my eating plan:

M2 Goal: muscle mass

Nevertheless, this mission will ended in 2months and I don't want to say goodbye to my abs so a strong diet will be essential!

Remember, here is one of my final goal representation:

One more..I would have to thx all shredders who supported me in spite of my injuries or fears. You are becoming a part of my life, like a big family and I sincerely hope that I gonna meet some of you. I know that France is so far away but nothing is impossible...

• Ohoh, Jeremy! Adetermined studient like me. "Together we will definitely go beyond any foreseeable limits in the future" I remember your own words man ^^

As you have noticed, spartans warriors is a big inspiration for me. Since I have studied Greek at my college I'm fascinated by the the bravery of these proud warriors and "300" was the exemple of this bravery. Today, maybe I won a battle but I didn't win the war. I will keep doing what bring me to post the entry: Shred Hard. I WILL NEVER SURRENDER...it's just the beginning! No Adam, a battle victory doesn't represent the entire glory...I continue to prepare for glory...

psi: because of a computer problem I can't post any video, I apologize for that -_-

psii: some other daily picture are coming...

Until next time Shred hard, Show no mercy, no surrender!!!

Bob,
