Here's the latest round of pictures. It's been one month since my initial pictures. I think my legs look a little bigger and more defined. My abdomen also looks a little more defined, I think. Please give me some input.

My parents visited this weekend and they took us out to dinner several times, so I let my diet go to crap. I'm back on track as of today. I also ordered some kre-alkalyn powder and some glutamine powder.

Yesterday around 4pm I took my first dose of the EC Stack (25mg ephedrine and 200mg caffeine) and again this morning around 5:30am. I'm using Biotek Ephedrine w/ guaifenesin. So far I haven't noticed any too severe side effects. I got a little hyper last night with a slight head buzz, but it didn't last too long. A bit of the hyperactivity I attribute to placebo effect.

Just because I haven't been on the community doesn't mean I haven't been training. I have abandoned body building style workouts for the CrossFit methodology. Welcome to CrossFit: Forging Elite Fitness
This type of training emphasizes a complete type of fitness that goes beyond looking good. CrossFitters are strong, fast, powerful, and capable across a broad range of physical skills. I took these pictures today. It's been about 11 months since I last posted any progress pictures. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

Welcome back Danimal! Nice to see you posting again. Your training will be fun to follow. Not everyone here is a true Body Builder. Keep up your journal so that we might be able to "steal" some exercises. If nothing else, it will give us more information to help others.
After all, isn't that why we are here?

I don't really do smiling unless I'm laughing at something. Most people think that I'm really serious when they meet me. It's just my default expression.

Tonight's workout was great! I felt great doing it, and although it was a lot of work, I feel pumped rather than trashed right now.
5 rounds of the following: * 0.4 mile quick-paced walk under load (50lb sandbag across shoulders) * 0.4 mile run * 0.4 mile bike ride After doing the math: I traveled 6 miles altogether. 2 miles carrying the sandbag, 2 running, and 2 biking. I can't describe how good I feel right now.
