Bodyweight: 170.6
Over the weekend, Zack competed at Nebraskas Strongest Man and took 2nd by half a point. He had a great day winning 3 events and taking 2nd in another… but the points just didn’t add up in his favor.
I’m sitting at about 10 1/2 weeks out right now from the CB show. I’ve reached 170 in bodyweight so I’ll probably be down in the 160’s by the end of this week or early next. I’m pretty happy about that… I’d like to be in the condition I was for my last contest at about 4-6 weeks out… that would give me some extra time to get even leaner.
So I feel like I’m right on track. I’ve still been walking for about 1/2 hour at 5 a.m. about 5 days a week. That’s the only cardio I’m doing right now. I also started taking caffeine to help in the fat loss - I take 400 mg in the morning, 200 mg at noon, and 200 mg in the afternoon. I’m not sure if this really helps… but for less than $3 a bottle I wouldn’t mind if it’s a placebo effect.
Lighter and lighter weights are getting heavier now… I squatted yesterday - I did 3 sets of 315 x 6. It was tough.
I’ve also picked out my posing music, but I haven’t plotted my poses that I’m going to do to it yet. I hope to have that done by next week so I have about 8-9 weeks to practice it.
