[Guest guest]

i have been training hard and i love eating and when i train hard i get very

hungry when i started out i had a large belly spare tire on the sides etc etc i

was around 90 odd kilo but looked like couch potato with a large double chin i

know maintain 90 kilo and tend to lose weight a few kilos but generally hold 90

kilo but my over all body shape have changed i went to a function and was

complemented on how much weight i lost but the truth is i have not having big

round belly makes it look that way i guess even though i am almost fifty my body

with the help of bull worker continuos training in my case has produced muscle

which is heaver than fat my jaw line has returned to some degree i feel great

when i turn 50 at Xmas i am going to be looking the best i have in 15-20 years

beginning to bear fruit !

Every ounce went to my waist and it shows... and there is a message in that:

unless you are active everyday, 10 lbs in a month is about a 1/4 pound a day.

You can barely measure it.

A period of Weight gain due to the increase in muscle mass gained by exercising,

then followed by a period of weight loss due to the increased muscle mass is

burning more energy and " FAT " .

:

Your comments bring back fond memories of my high school wrestling coach. I

vividly remember 40 odd years ago in my high school wrestling team, the daily

work outs and how we were encouraged to record our weight gain/loss every day.

I don't have a problem with abstinence or diet. I stopped working out with my BW

several years ago because of FEAR. I started getting excruciating pains up and

down my left arm and side and around my chest & back every time I worked out

with my BW or jogged 3 miles.

The pain was so excruciating every time and I thought to myself, " This is it,

this is the big one I'm a gonner " .

The only thing that would moderate the pain was a form of self hypnosis we

learned in the bush, when we'd get hit with an AK-47 round and had to hump 10-15

klicks back to the LZ or Fire-base.

Every time I went to see the Doc (6+ times), and each time he said, " There's

nothing wrong with your cardiovascular system, get outta here! " .

Nobody could figure out what it was. The pains kept getting worse and worse. I

simply stopped exercising. That's all it took.

I didn't " binge " , or change my diet, just lack of activity was all it took, and

I blew up like a balloon.

I'm doing volunteer work for the Hurricane Irene Flood Survivors in the

Catskills (upstate NY) with a group of Docs, LMTs, Chiropractics, Healers,

Acupuncturists, etc...We set up a weekly Sunday " Holistic FREE M.A.S.H. Unit "

for the flood survivors. and One of the Chiropractics said from ACROSS THE ROOM,

" TG are you ok? Your shoulder looks like it's dislocated! "

So, I can't believe that I've been running around since 2004 with a dislocated

shoulder, and not a single regular Alopathic doctor (MD) noticed it, yet a

Chiropractic could see it from across the room. When I finally looked at my back

in a mirror, I looked like Quasimodo.

Anyway the Chiropractics, Acupuncturists, and LMTs have been working on me and

have reset my shoulder, and I'm working out again with BW, SB, Iso-K, and

jogging again, having let go of the FEAR that I'm having a heart attack. The

pain has subsided gradually as I exercises and have regular weekly sessions with

my chiropractics, LMT, Acupuncture buddies.

So now that I know that the pain is some kind of " pinched nerve pain " from the

dislocated shoulder, I can do the " EFT Tapping " and " Self Hypnosis " that I

learned many years ago in a dirty little war in a dirty little country, and get

on with the workout.

Moral of this story: F.E.A.R. = False Evidence Appearing Real

Namaste,

TG
