What number of months’ growth do your footage constitute? What had been your stats for every image?

Photos constitute 6 months (3 ‘levels’) price of growth.

From 65.5 kg (144.4 lb) to 56.5 kg (127.4 lb). I misplaced 9 kg (19.8 lb).

From roughly 27-29% frame fats to roughly 18-20% frame fats. Reduced by means of roughly 9% frame fats.

What has came about to this point at the program?

Thus far I’ve been on a reduce for six months and I’ve misplaced 9 kg (19.8 lb) and roughly 9% frame fats. I caught to my macros 95% of the time and had the occasional cheat day.

Throughout my primary lifts, I started bench urgent at 25 kg at 8 reps and moved as much as 30 kg at 8 reps by means of the tip of section 3 (5kg/11 lb build up).

My squat began at 20 kg (44 lb) in section 1 for 10 reps and went as much as 35 kg (77 lb) for 10 reps on the finish of section 3 (15kg/33 lb build up).

My deadlift began at 25kg (55 lb) for 10 reps in section 1 and went as much as 42.5 kg (93.7 lb) on the finish of section 3 (17.5kg/38 lb build up).

My army press began at 18kg (39.6 lb) for 8 reps and improved to 22.5kg (49.6 lb) for 8 reps by means of the tip of section 3 (4.5kg/10 lb build up).

Abstract: I misplaced 9kg (19.8 lb) and 9% frame fats. Greater 5 kg/11 lb on bench press, 15kg/ 33 lb build up on squat, 17.5kg/38 lb on deadlift and four.5kg/10 lb build up on army press. It’s price noting I used to be an absolute weight lifting novice and needed to to find my beginning weight slowly.

I used to be additionally at a 20% deficit the entire time. In all probability my lifts didn’t get started as heavy as they might have, however I were given into the groove slowly. I don’t know if those ‘good points’ are spectacular or no longer, however the aesthetic effects discuss for themselves! I do know that presently, I will’t raise any heavier. So possibly once I succeed in my weight function (54 kg/119 lb) and get started upkeep or bulking I can commit some concept to attaining some primary raise PRs.

What exercise cut up from the e book did you utilize?

The 4-day cut up in section 1 and a pair of. The 5-day cut up in closing two weeks of section 2 and all of section 3.

What, if the rest, virtually saved you from purchasing the e book or beginning this system?

I come from a working background so switching to a predominantly weight lifting regimen was once a frightening soar. I used to be frightened that I’d acquire or handle fats and that I’d hate weight lifting in comparison to working.

Alternatively, regardless of those worries, I sought after to offer it a good strive. Working myself into the bottom on a daily basis left me feeling exhausted, injured, burnt out, and ravenously hungry for meals. As a result of I used to be the usage of the similar macros information as I used to be whilst doing Thinner Leaner More potent, I used to be reducing weight–then again, it was once no longer sustainable in any respect.

Seems I had a hidden love for weight lifting. I determine at house as a result of I don’t benefit from the gymnasium and I to find it extra sustainable to workout at house. I when compared a growth image of me at 57 kg on a working program and me at 57 kg on Thinner Leaner More potent and the muscle definition is ridiculous. I a lot desire the best way my frame appears to be like once I’m lifting slightly than working.

What do you prefer maximum about this system?

It was once so sustainable and fulfilling. Effects had been moderately slower than working my ass off on a daily basis however the effects had been some distance awesome. I felt higher and no more burnt out. Even being on a reduce didn’t appear unsustainable.

How does this program evaluate with others you’ve attempted?

My vitamin didn’t exchange but it surely felt much more sustainable and I won precious data and recommendation from Thinner Leaner More potent that I didn’t know ahead of.

How has what you’ve completed together with your frame modified different spaces of your existence?

My garments have compatibility higher. I’m extra assured in pictures. I smile extra. Because of the sustainable regimen, I do if truth be told have extra power. I in reality don’t begrudge getting up at 5 am to exercise.

It has additionally translated into different spaces of my existence. I’m much less lazy. I watch much less TV, I sleep much less (that’s a excellent factor–it was once no longer unusual for me to sleep 10 hours then take a sleep ahead of falling asleep at the settee), my paintings is extra productive, my meal prep is pleasing and now not a chore, my home is cleaner and my psychological well being has advanced hugely. Utterly because of a sustainable regimen.

I completely love the continuing growth, too. I’m extra proactive and I actively revel in meal prep, getting up early, and being much less lazy as a result of I do know I’m making growth! A sustainable, relaxing regimen has result in growth, which has result in self assurance and happiness. That during flip has made me extra proactive and has taken me complete circle again to much more growth!

Who would you suggest this program to and why?

Everybody. There’s no “would I like to recommend?” I do. To everybody who listens. And to people who don’t… I’m providing the ones other people to borrow my e book or use their loose Audible e book to get Thinner Leaner More potent! Simply give it a pass and notice when you adore it–what have you were given to lose?

My primary why is that it’s if truth be told SUSTAINABLE. You don’t really feel like “Oh god I’ve to determine once more this night.” Somewhat, you are feeling like “Booooo it’s a relaxation day, I want I may do an 8-day per week cut up! ;)” If other people don’t appear satisfied, I whip my abs out or display them which means the seashore is 😉

Is there the rest you’d like so as to add?

Sticking in your macros is very important. In case you’re no longer making the growth you wish to have, take into consideration your macros. I must upload that I used to be rather strict with my macros and I caught to them on a daily basis except 15 days out of 180 days (6 months) the place I went a little bit loopy because of birthdays or events the place I had ‘cheat days’.

I’m speaking completely unregulated and untracked meals consumption. In a super global, I’d love to get this underneath regulate to cheat foods slightly than cheat days. However I really like the best way I think after a cheat day (bloated, in poor health, and slow). It rings a bell in my memory why I love to persist with my macros 95% of the time!

I must additionally upload I take advantage of an entire whey protein powder (from bulk powders UK) and this appears to be running wonderful. It’s laborious to grasp while you’re slicing if one whey protein is healthier than every other as a result of I’ve different variables that would impact my weight reduction (calorie deficit, aerobic quantity, and so forth.). After I’m bulking or keeping up I can have an interest to look how different protein powders impact my growth. I can in fact be attempting Legion Whey+ 🙂

I may additionally point out I take advantage of Huel for lunch. It’s principally a meal alternative shake with a 40:40:20% of protein, carb, and fats. It’s a lazy means to make sure I’ve a wholesome lunch. I devour common meals the remainder of the time. Additionally, I do devour a vegetarian vitamin. I’m no longer announcing my growth is because of this in any respect–I’m announcing I will acquire muscle and get sufficient wholesome protein DESPITE following a vegetarian vitamin!

Did you utilize any Legion dietary supplements?

No longer but! However I’ve simply ordered some Phoenix, Forge, and Pulse! I’m excited to look how Phoenix and Forge lend a hand me now that I’m on the degree of dropping handiest small quantities of cussed fats.

As for Pulse, I had to shop for some after any person within the MFL Fb staff stated, ”Does somebody else really feel like they might punch thru a brick wall after one scoop of Pulse?” I assumed “Rattling, I’ve were given to offer {that a} take a look at!”

I additionally ordered a Legion blouse and bottle so I will really feel a part of the staff all of the far more than right here in the United Kingdom!
