Hi all,


First of all, the name comes from the position I always played in Rugby
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tighthead_prop

Once I stopped playing, the belly just ballooned up over the years

Before
Weight: 100kg ++
Pants waist size: 44"
BF: ~ 33% ++


After
Weight: 89 kg
Pants waist size: 36"
BF: ~ 22% +


Hopeful to reach < 15% BF by end of the year.

Lifting weights is the main fat loss program. My PT (45 year old ++) an ex amateur bber taught me old skool program similar to the one preached here:
http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/guru.htm

Lifting progress is nothing much to shout la, benching from 35 kg in Aug 06 now 70kg, Squat 80kg, DL 95kg

Many many thanks to all the regulars here, especially to pizzaboy, Joey, Syd G, Nezzy etc for keeping me motivated thru your journals and posts, and to darklight & Mpotato for the guides here. Really appreciate all your discussions in H&F section.

Will post further details (diet, cardio etc.) in subsequent post.

Sorry for the late reply, I was away for the weekend and just got back.

Thanks for the encouragement guys, I appreciate it.


I eat very clean during the weekdays: all food prepared at home & tapau to work. I cheat and eat outside food only on weekends.
My typical intake:

8 am Breakfast: Oats + milk, 4 hard boiled eggs, Multivit + fish oil + flaxseed oil
11 am Meal 2: Lots of Lettuce + broccoli + green pepper, 2 pcs of steamed chicken or grilled fish
2 pm Meal 3: Exactly the same as Meal 2
5 pm Dinner: Rice, Beef or Mutton soup or beef liver, veggies
Pre workout: Oats + milk + whey
Post workout: milk + whey + honey
Before bed: milk + 1 tablespoon peanut butter + fish oil

I had just started to take creatine mono and Lipo 6.

Go to gym 4 times per week 7.30 pm - 9pm : Mon, Tue, Thu, Fri.
Jog 15 - 30 minutes after lifting weights.
Morning jog 30 minutes 2 times per week.


No, I don't drink beer or any alcohol. That reddish mark was probably from the 15 kg plate on the chest for Weighted decline situps the night before.
Got sunburnt on the neck, face, hands at the beach the week before.


Thanks guys

Woah ...
