230 Lbs, Very Strong, Very Fat @ Age 45
Things are not going too well. I gain 10 pounds in Ramadan, and now I'm sitting at a very fat 230 pounds. I feel terrible, but I keep eating poorly. The only positive thing going for me these days is that my strength training is going very well and I'm the strongest I've been in many years.
I need to find a way to be this strong but a lot less fat (I'm not trying to be cut or ripped; that was too hard to do as a young man so now it's simply not in the cards for me).
Moderation does not work for me.
I need something extreme and I need a goal.
So here are the goals:
By September 12, 2015
Weight: 210 pounds
Body fat %: 20%
Exercise Benchmarks: run 4 miles in 44 minutes on the treadmill at a 3% incline, bench press 210 pounds x 25 reps, dead lift 210 pounds x 10 reps, leg press 320 pounds x 10 reps
By November 14, 2015
Weight: 200 pounds
Body fat %: under 20%
Exercise Benchmarks: run 5 miles in 50 minutes on the treadmill at a 3% incline, bench press 195 pounds x 35 reps, dead lift 250 pounds x 10 reps, leg press 370 pounds x 10 reps
