The Plan Pt. 1 (Fat-loss Phase)

The basic plan is to split the coming year into two phases: a 6-month fat-loss phase and a 6-month strength training phase. To keep things simple, I will focus only on the fat-loss phase for now.

The fat-loss plan will be split into two parts: training and diet.

Training
1. I will do two consecutive 90-day cycles of the P-90X home training program. The first cycle will follow the "Classic" program, the second cycle will be the more advanced "Doubles" program.



















2. I will perform cardio (30 minutes minimum) every day.

3. I will add occassional powerlifting/strongman training sessions with my powerlifting friend, Rob:



And here I am nearly getting pwnd by a 700lb. tire:



4. I will strive to continously improve on all exercises.

5. I WILL NEVER MISS A TRAINING SESSION. NO EXCEPTIONS - NO EXCUSES!!

Diet
1. I will eat a maximum of 2700 kcal per day following a 50% Protein, 30% Carb, 20% Fat diet.

2. I will not eat junkfood (sweets, soda, fastfood, etc.) or simple carbs (rice, bread, etc.), or alcoholic beverages.

3. I will only eat clean protein (lean meat, poultry, seafood) and complex carbs (fruits and vegetables).

4. I will learn to cook only healthy, low-carb meals.

5. I WILL NEVER CHEAT ON A MEAL OR OVEREAT. NO EXCEPTIONS!!!

And so it is written, and so it shall be done!
