I’ve entered a body transformation competition. The contest goes from July 1st through September 24th and entrants are all members of the Vegan Bodybuilding website and message board. I look up to a lot of these guys and gals because they manage to get really strong and live with an insanely high energy level on a plant-based diet. They are really breaking the “weakling” sterotype that most people associate to vegans/vegetarians.
I sent in my “before” pictures a few weeks ago and it is clear that I have a lot of work to do. Since I think public humiliation (or fear of it) is one of the best motivators for change….I’m making my goals for this competition open to the public…or at least the three people that read this blog:
- Win the competition! (what are the point of goals if they aren’t big?
) - Gain 1.5 pounds of lean muscle per week [+18 lbs]
- Lose 8% bodyfat, from 15% on July 1st to 7% [-12 lbs] my previous low was 4% back in 2003
- Finally get the six pack (…not the Miller Light variety)
- Perform 25 pull ups nonstop (current personal best is 12)
- Perform 75 push ups nonstop (current personal best is 54)
- Master Yoga inversions (headstands, handstands)
