Tweetman I wish I can eat like that
TweetAlright I am in PCT right now but have decided to do this 8 week challenge. I did not have my last cycle posted up on this board so I will tell you a little about it. It ended up being a 18 week bulk cycle where of course I lifted heavy and ate like a maniac 4000-5000 calories ED. So I am planning on doing a 10-12 week cut cycle starting in June maybe July. Now I know that is not a lot of time off cycle to recover but I will get blood work done to make sure everything is where it should be. What my goal here is to take off as much BF as I can before my cut cycle in order to not have to fight so hard while ON to cut it off. I am hoping to be around 10% BF by the end of this 8 weeks. Today will be my 5th day with the diet I am about to post and the workout they have laid out. If anyone wants to see it just Google Rock Hard Challenge 2014. This came from March and April issues of Muscle and Fitness magazine. I have got to tell you brothers and sisters that going from almost 5000 calories to what I am about to post up has been tough so far. But I know this will get me where I want to be. This is being sponsored by Muscle Tech I am sure because they want you to use all Muscle Tech products. But I am using MY favorites.

If you want to cut some serious weight and get shredded then give this a shot. If you want to print this diet and the workouts for yourself just Google 2014 Rock Hard Challenge.
Remember you can tweak this a little. I could not eat the quinoa. Tried but could not do it. So I eat brown rice instead. Also Salmon is very expensive so I eat tilapia instead.
