The way of the 6 pack abs

Doing P90X

2010-10-15T07:31:00.001-07:00

Hi I'm back and I will try to update again this blog from time to time, this time I'm doing P90X. and the reason why, is because I spent a 9 months doing nothing and sitting on a desk programming, so I believed that a more radical workout was needed.

Day 0:

Day 40:

1st Pick of the year

2009-01-13T12:49:00.000-08:00

This is a pic after the holiday season, I have a better muscle structure but also I gain a lot of weight from all the food that comes with these holidays :(.

It was chilly that morning so don't laugh over my suffering face, lol

Anyways here is the pic.

Comeback

2009-01-13T12:44:00.000-08:00

Hi all, its been a while since my last post, and well, I have been training all this time, so things are going good.

But not everything is good news, 1 month ago I lost all my measures and all the info on my training sessions. So from now on I will be updating my blog with information on my routines, measures and stuff like that so I can always come back to this page and have it for reference. Also, pictures will be posted from now and then, hopefully every month or so, just to keep track of the changes.

I'm Back with the new Arnel Training

2008-05-30T06:37:00.000-07:00

Hi All:

It's been a while since the last update to my blog, but I'm back to do the next Arnel Training... which is the muscle gaining workout :). Today is the first day of week 1, and as usual these are the pictures, and of course I will be updating every 2 weeks with new ones.

Statistics

Small Update with new Stats:

Week 5 Fight Club

2008-02-05T05:14:00.000-08:00

New update, not much these last 2 weeks. The tyler durden rutine is nice, and not as hard as the 16 weeks program. I see better definition, and also I'm getting more muscle and I will take measures next week.

Week 3 pics

2008-01-22T05:14:00.000-08:00

Hi again, this is a new update of the tyler durden training, I think I will be posting updates every 2 weeks again. To tell the truth I have not been following the diet a 100% mainly because my new SON was born last week, so you can imagine all the happiness and family parties around, but I will try my best to get back on track this coming 4th week.

1st Week Fight Club

2007-12-25T06:16:00.000-08:00

Hi all these are the pics of the last week, even if I still have a couple days more to do, i guess the difference is not going to be noticeable, thanks everybody for the motivation and your effort. As the rest of us I think we are really champions, and I would like to thank Mauricio for all the support and advice on all this journey.

Also I took these pictures just when I woke up, so you can see my sleepy face lol...

End of Week 15

2007-12-19T16:46:00.000-08:00

Hi again, these are the pics of week 15. 1 more week to go before jumping to the next training.
There is something funny, I have never published a photo with my face lol ... for week 16 I guess I will :)

Week 12 Update

2007-11-28T05:32:00.000-08:00

This is the picture update of week 12.

The diet is doing great things to my body, every time a week ends the results at least to me look great. It has been a wonderful journey so far and I have started the last quarter of it(1 month to go), and without a doubt I think it will be the best.

As a side note, I have started as well an arms rutine, because at least to me arnel's rutine was not helping my arms, as good as the rest of my body.

Week 11 quick update

2007-11-20T05:44:00.000-08:00

I was not able to do the week 11 rutine full, but I did other type of exercises, so I will post new pictures when week 12 ends.

Week 10

2007-11-13T05:28:00.000-08:00

This is a short update of Week 10. Everything looking good :)

Overall Progress Week 9

Week 9 pics

2007-11-06T06:59:00.000-08:00

This is Week 9 of the Spartan Training, and the first full week with Arnolds diet( to the rule), and I can say that the results are impressive, I really wish that I have started the diet earlier and not in the middle of the program, but for everbody out there that is doing this training, eat well... Is a world apart.

Week 8

2007-10-29T06:14:00.000-07:00

Its been a while after the last update, but I had been struggling with my rutines, no stamina or strenght, so I went to my local gym to take my monthly measures and guess what I lost 1cm of every part of my body, but what i loss was muscle, the porcentage of fat only reduce 0.2%, which is like going 2 days to the gym probably. So my trainer told me that I wasnt following the diet, which is true, and starting today I will stick to the diet 100%, so I bought all my chicken, fish, spinach, brocolli, avocados, etc...

I'm sure I will get better results week by week basis, and I will be posting pic week by week.

Here are the pics of week 8 as you can see there is not much difference with week 5, but that will change :)

Update week 6 photos

2007-10-18T07:55:00.000-07:00

This is just a pic update, since I haven't post pics in a while, I will tell you this is like a teaser of the comming photos of week 7(next monday).

Week 7

2007-10-16T08:11:00.000-07:00

Yesterday I complete 285 reps... but I could not finish the 300 reps. I feel my body stronger after completing the routine, contrary to the last 3 weeks where I felt tired, and with less "power".

New pics will be available at the end of week 7.

Week 6

2007-10-09T09:13:00.000-07:00

Yesterday I started the exercises for week 6 and it takes me around 55 min to complete the 4 series at intermediate level. My body hurts, but like some ppl say: no pain no gain.

Week 5 Measures and Pics

2007-10-09T09:00:00.000-07:00

These pictures were taken, on week 5 but I made a mistake by not buying the protein, I think the results could have been better, but maybe when I post the pictures of week 7 using protein the difference will be greater.

Measures:

Fat %: 12.8%

IMC: 24.2%

Waist:95 cm

Arm(biceps):35.7 cm

Leg: 56 cm

calf: 36 cm

First Week

2007-10-09T08:09:00.000-07:00
