Do you have workout suggestions for midsection?
weighted ab execises.. but dont let the hip flexors get involved.. that will give you some mass on the abs.. stay away from the obliques, they get PLENTY of work on other execises.. and you do not want your waist bigger,.. then your back will look smaller and you will look blockier.. hit those abs hard, exhale hard on each concentric phase..... you can put a finger on each ab while doing crunches(non weighted) to cause more neural recruitment.. but work with the weight plenty to get some thickness to each ab muscle

I've officially been off all but 2 supplements for 5 days now and my body is freaking out. Have been cheating way too much too. I've blown up to 235 lb when I competed at 209 just two weeks ago. Insane!!
We're trying to get my body to regulate the water on its own, so this week gonna keep pushing water and no missed workouts!! Even if I gotta do them at 10:00 pm. I'm getting them in.
Gonna be a stiffer ride than I thought.

rebound water from depletion,, it is common.. dandelion root will help, and watching sodium/// also, distilled water, and lots of it.. flushes excess from your body, just like the last week before the show... if neither of those are sufficient, hctz is a very good mild diuretic... also potassium sparin.. not harsh at all.. you know where you can get plenty of those bro

The training is actually been going well specially this last week I finally got back into lifting. Cardio has been great I switched up my cardio program a little bit to incorporate some sprints and it's really starting to show. The carb cycling diet is definitely pulling through for me as well.
I'm down to 220 pounds from 227 last Saturday so little over 7 pounds of weight loss in a week and I can see that it's all through the abdomen area everything else was still pretty dry and shredded. I'll post up pictures by the end of the week but things are really starting to look good. I may just make the show after all.
On a side note, today I have to change my status to 39 years old today.
Happy Birthday Rockshawn!! :) i hope thats what you meant haha
You are kicking ass but thats nothing new! Keep killing it and i will continue to follow..

Life will throw you some curves at times, how you respond to them is the true test of your character. I know in my heart that you will handle them just fine. Enjoy the day Brother!!!
