Saw ol Coach JDubz this evening and got out the “faincy” calipers and pinched 10%. Weighed 261 this evening. Got a nice little gift of upping my higer carbohydrate intake day to 250g!!! Makes me smile lots 
6 Days of cardio or I like to put it fatio! Cardio for me is a moderate intensity thing. There is a lot of research showing the metabolic after effects of HIIT or high intensity interval cardio… I choose not to do it because I am A) lazy and B) I want to take full advantage of my time in front of EPSN in the morning! This year I am still using some fruit in my diet, but also going back to more oatmeal. I enjoy oatmeal, its fast, no mess, and you can even mix protein powder with it if you in a hurry. Training stays the same, off-season or contest prep. All depends on energy levels the further I get into my diet, but as my ol mentor and one of my best friends used to say to me “you dance with the girl you brought to prom”. Heading to the Arnold Classic this year, going to see a friend compete in a powerlifting event and also go to the Arnold Expo, may go see the show but we shall see. Being a Grad student and prepping for a contest or two makes finances a little tight. Plus I’ll need to spend some money on new Buckeye apparel! Love the great city of Columbus!! Lastly possibly may b be working with the great Jeff Sygo. He has talked of doing a training video with that well known, adored immortal bodybuilder known as PJ Braun. He is a better person the he is a bodybuilder, and he is a great bodybuilder. In closing just want to say thanks to my sponsors True Nutrition formerly known as True Protein, and also want to thank the Team Chubbykidz, love you all and thank you for being in my corner… you know who you are
Dan
