Ben, I think you need to get ripped mate. Seriously, you need to get down to a lower bodyfat and then build it up from there.
I know you like cars so here's an analogy for you.
You need to get skinny like I'm doing. Think of stripping a car down to the chassis before building it up into a supercar! brum brum!! You also need to concentrate on your engine too! i.e. your fitness and eating healthy as you don't want to be a great looking car with nothing under the bonnet (as you are at the moment).
Seriously, If I was you and I had your body - god forbid ;-) - I would get down to a low bodyfat, get really lean and work on eating healthy, I'd focus on that for the next 8 weeks and not worry about bulking. Focus on losing fat and increasing strength while eating decent food.
Hope that helps, just my opinion.
*beep beep*
I like this!
Looks like I will go on a clean eating, life of a monk cut then for a few weeks (maybe six) and see how I get on with losing the bit of belly flab I have. There is no way I want to let loose for my late 20s - so many of the guys from school already have done, and it is gross.
I also remember Gahoo's comment about when your belly is bigger than your chest it is time to sort it out - I am not that bad, but see so many 30+ ers who are in such bad shape it makes me cringe for them inside.
Like me Mr Ben I think we need to both get with Anthony's Weight Loss Programme....
Maybe I will have to join in too
My main motivation is that I point blank refuse to buy a pair of 34" trousers
Never! :-O
I like Gahoo's earlier analogy! Cut Ben! Cut like a knife! Tell me when you're in Manchester and you can come down to my gym! I'm drawing the line at wearing a Dale mask though!
Which gym do you go to? Is it a chain?
Maybe we will have to have a northern gym meet, there are enough of us about now, and all within easy reach of each other. Dale masks/costumes optional :)
