34 years old,
5 foot 11 inches,
185lbs.
Less than 2 years weight training experience.
Not sure about body fat, I believe I need to lose about 15 pounds of body fat before I can see my abs.
So that is why I'm here!
QUICK BACKSTORY
a few years ago I was 225 pounds, endomorphic- skinny fat, felt like shit everyday.
So I change my diet started eating 6 small meals of whole foods a day based around proteins.
After 2 weeks I felt so good I started jogging everyday after work.
Build my way up to where I can do 3 miles everyday I would take a day off when I felt like I needed it.
Over the next 6 to 8 months I lost 70lbs.
So I started weight training at home by myself a few months later
And there I was, I went from beer gut and man titties to a chiseled chest and abs.
BUT at 155lbs I didn't like the way I looked, skinny face, frail arms.
So I started trying to learn how to bulk up then came up with a 5x5 and eating an assload of clean food!
And that is what I've been doing for the last 4-5 months.
Needless to say I've put on weight too much body fat!
I HAD 3 MAJOR PROBLEMS CONTRIBUTING TO THE WEIGHT GAIN.
#1 out of ignorance I set my calorie surplus way too high.
#2 as everyone knows the 5 x 5 has you doing squats 3 * a week, all those squats+ running was killing my knees, so I stopped cardio, MISTAKE!!!!! I have sense gotten help with my squat form and learned how to NOT kill my knees.
#3 Met a girl And started cheating on my diet, I'm not blaming her The responsibility is mine and mine alone Just letting everyone know that's how it happens.
SO ALL THE BULLSHIT STOPS NOW!
This is my new beginning And lesson learned I hope!
I will be logging every single thing I eat everyday starting now.
I will be starting cardio today!
I will be logging My weight daily.
And I hope I will get as much help as possible from you good people.
As I mentioned I am relatively inexperienced and welcome some guidance
