Same, which is totally awesome for me as I'm a woman. I tone pretty easily because I snack a lot and love my carbs!

My favourite workout: sex

i only eat like 3 decent meals a day. I should probably be eating 5 or 6 meals a day since i am pretty active. But it's not like i know if i start eating more, if i will suddenly start gaining weight. So i never really tried to eat a lot of food because it's expensive and it makes me want to puke.

Legitimately you have to eat more to put on muscle. And yes it's expensive.

Eat every 2.5 - 3 hours and try to get at least 25g of protien in each meal if you can, and twice as many carbs, if your 6'3 and 170 I would assume your pretty lean and have trouble gaining fat so if thats the case than you dont have to be too careful what you eat, if I were you I would shoot for 2g of protien per pound of body weight and 3-4g of carbs per pound of body weight, and eat some fats too like almonds, peanuts, avocadoes, lots of red meat, that **** will start gaining you pounds, eat huge in the morning and before bed and drink a protien shake after your workout and then eat a huge meal 1-1.5 hours after that post workout shake then just fill in the gaps with high protien/high calorie meals. Hahaha you say you feel like your gonna puke if you eat too much thats all part of the game, you need to eat until you cant eat no more my friend, and once you do this for long enough you will eventually stretch you stomach so it will be able to handle more food, if you want to gain weight or get big or whatever you need to EAT!

I'm down to 8.3% body fat! Although I still can't see my six pack. Having said that, the fat layer covering it is so small, so I don't have far to go! I'm currently also wanting to try the human flag. It'll take a lot of training and whatnot but it looks so damn cool

[Bane of your existence]

Nice. I'm somwhere around 7-8%, I never really pay attn. I just try and stay fit and have everything else fall into place. I see too many people reach some numbered goal and decide to let themselves go to shit afterward.

[CanwllCorfe]

Ohh I'm definitely not one of them. I feel so much better being light, and eating better and being more active. I'm never going back to where I was before

[Darkest Hour]

I'm feeling like a beast. I maxed out at 230 pounds on squats today.

[YourLocalTyrant]

Since I've stopped playing football, my body has turned into one lump of fatty fatness.

I picked up the P90X, found I was too out of shape to do it all correctly, now I'm just doing cardio and a little bit of actual weight work, trying to melt fat to work my way back to it.
Anyone else on it?

[djchameleon]

I was thinking about getting the p90x system. I'm on my computer quite often though so it may be tough for me to get into it. The most activity I get is every other morning when I jog for about 30mins.
