Your Vegas Diet and Work Out Plan aka "GTL" Thread

[Guest]

Haha, same deal here. I think all the GNCs in San Francisco are owned by these older Asian people (I think they're Philipino) who have no knowledge whatsoever.

They got so pissed off at me when I used my gold card during gold card week on a protein bar that was already on sale for fifty cents.

lol I don't get why they give you that dirty look when you use a promotion thats provided by their company. They are probably doing very bad in business there.
GNC is usually for the suckers that are just getting into fitness supps.

Their claims on their products are ridiculous and probably bad for newbies - "Twice the muscle with half the reps!"

Good thing I lurk around on here with you guys. I learn something everyday. I just got my P90x last night, might push play today just for fun.

Yeah I wanna do this too but I gotta get some equipment first ...

Is it just me? Or the GNCs are franchised and owned by 3rd parties? All the ones in Socal are owned and ran by indians that have little to not knowledge for nutrition. When you walk in the store, they try to push everything to you.

Hahahaha ... a lot of them are franchised but the District Manager should oversee operations but if it's producing, I doubt that they get scrutinized under a microscope.

Just be aware that they receive commission if they push the GNC brand

It's like you said royale ... if you walk into like a Wal-Mart and head towards the electronics section, they have no idea what the hell you are talking about. It's sad.

EDIT: "MAYOR OF VEGAS BABY WHAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Final Weight in Results Before LDW

Before everyone starts manscaping and rubbing on that orange tan lotion.. lets hear some success stories on your LDW work out. I know it was a tough journey and some hard work, but I m sure it will pay off at the pool party.

I m gonna post my results as an example:

Work Out Start date: July 6th
Original Weight: 172 lb
Current Weight: 176.5 lb
Results: 1/2 inch growth in biceps, 1 inch on chest and back , waist stayed the same
Supplements: Optimum Nutrition Protein(double serving), Curry chicken and Naan 3500cal/day diet.

Lets hear everyone's results! Even if you guys didn't work out, you can always start after LDW and prepare like the olympics for MDW next year

[Mr.Vegas]

Work Out Start date: March 1 - Current
Original Weight: 240.0 lb
Current Weight: 201.0 lb
Height: 5'9
Supplements: Multi-vitamin, Endurush, ON protein. I also kept the diet choices clean and limited my cal intake around 2100.
Results Summary: I implemented HITT cardio, long distance runs, and focused on my core. I try mixing up cardio daily from the elliptical, stair climber, and treadmill. Also started doing spin classes and running outside or playin' bball. I work out 6 times a week and use slow motions when doing weights with a high rep focus.

My arms are pretty large and so is my chest ... not sure what the chest size is lately but my arms are at 17"s right now. Check out my attachment and let me know what you guys think. I cut up considerably since NYE where I was a fat pudgy fock. Hahaha ... too much rice in the diet and fried chicken/kool aid ... man I miss that stuff.

Nice job of cutting down Uej.. but dang Mr vegas should be on those beach body p90x commercials haha Yea I did do a 40 lb drop. Earlier last year I was around like 215 to 220. Takes a lot of motivation and a good fat burner that will pump you full of energy to work out. Nice pics Mr V. Now I know who to look for in XS if I make it there that is..
