I'm 6'3" tall, and weight about 195lbs. Hoping to get to about 185, and build some muscle so I don't look soft, particularly in the arms and abs.

    Friend from work and I have decided to work out 3-4 times a week, we went on a 4 mile jog last night, and Monday, we are planning to do upper body. Both of us are former Army, so we are just doing what we know. Not looking to get huge, I'm just hoping to get the body I had when I was 21 back.


    Anything I should try for a pre-workout? I've used that type of thing before, just to help boost energy levels, but I don't do caffeine anymore, causes headaches. Something that's not going to be a detriment to my already well-balanced diet would be ideal.
    I take this: http://www.supplementwarehouse.com/v...product=221435

    But it has A LOT of caffeine in it......

    I was hard at it for a long time but over the last year, maybe longer, i got burnt out and just stopped going. When i first started lifting 3 years ago i was 155lbs and at my best i was 185 with little body fat. Right now i am about 193 but i do have a belly :-/ so i am gonna get back it and hopeful cut back to 185 or so. I am getting married in Oct so that gives me a little motivation lol. This is me at 185lbs, only pictures i have. Pictures 447.jpgPictures 524.png

    Does anyone here ride bikes? I'm looking at getting one to help me knock off weight. Need to know what you think of this one: http://www.performancebike.com/bikes...400310__400310

    Well, I jumped and ordered it after talking to a good friend who rides pretty hard and is well versed.

    I usually skip these threads as im not a fitness buff n im a string bean, but f it. Maybe it will help the less fit get motivated to post too!
    I'm 28, 5'8 and only time I cracked 150 was at bootcamp (154).
    USUALLY im a solid 145, can't gain fat it seems.. but ive gone way downhill, slowley climbing back, but 3yrs of being nearly bed ridden n a few surgeries will do that to any one. So I'm currently 131 n getting in better shape everyday now that I'm not so crippled.
    I want to get back to my normal weight at least and while I can never be in the same shape as I was when I got hurt I can atleast get some muscles like they used to be, pop eye arms maybe.. and idk about a 10pack anymore but id settle for 6..
    Out fishin atm but when ever im on land next I think ive got some before pix and il post a present too and hopefuly my future pic will resemble my past lol

    Have u tried any weight gainers or aminos to try to help with size.

    Back in the day (and i mean 10 years ago) there were things like 1AD 1MT HALADROL....(all banned now) that were great for size and strength when coupled with allot ofnprotein and a regular workout. Im sure there is something out there to hell. Hell I think creatine is still out there and only banned in pro baseball...

    Oyeah. Tried a bunch. They help me get in shape faster, recover etc but don't make me any bigger in the end, just get me ther quicker it seems. N creatine I swear gives me cists, only time ive ever got em was while on that.

    Usually I don't buy sups any more unless we're doing some hardcore fishing which I can't do any more. I should go get some to help speed things up. I need to pay alot off attention to not favor a side these days tho, my back n abs are already bigger on my right side which ain't good.
    Spent a few yrs fishing with an x chef eating 4 full meals a day busting ass n only hit 150

    That looks like a nice bike. I have a TREK 3 series. I use to ride like crazy when I was at Fort Bragg, those tank trails were killer. I also rode a bunch in korea.....screw cabs haha. Since my medical issues started I had to stop running and doing typical army works outs. I use to run up to 10 miles a day now if I run even 1/2 a mile I get so dizzy I cant walk. So I have been working on doing other sports to get around this. I still ride my bike occasionally, when the georgia heat allows it, swim, roller blade, tennis and more recently I have started a kettle bell routine and it workings pretty well. While I was on deployment in 08/09 I gained a ton of weight and have been trying to work it off since. I went from 230 to 180 and now im back up to 190
