Aight fellas so is the real deal. It's time to make major changes in my life. I have had a decent life so far but definitely fell into the 9-5 rat race that has absolutely zero deeper meaning and worth to continue. My mom whom I loved dearly and was the best person I have ever known passed away last week, unexpectedly last week. She left me and my wife a very good amount of money. So I figured its now or never as far as changing my life and doing things I love to do while still having a good life.

I'm going to do my best to log basically everything I do as far as finances go and then do a workout/diet/poker log too. My goals are going to be turning 100,000 into 1 million in 3 years. Also I would like to win at least one live poker tournament. I have been to Cherokee twice and played 1/2NL and did pretty horrible, but I have played online for years and I'm semi competent at it. Buy ins range from 80-1000USD.

As far as fitness goals go I would like to lean down to 170-175ish and be in extremely good shape as far as cardio and functional strength goes. Right now im hovering around 205 at probably 15-18% BF. I used to go extremely hard in the gym in my twenties and went as heavy as possible. With a BP of 405, squat 515, and DL 585. While I loved lifting heavy, it just isn't realistic anymore. My body hurts in the mornings and I'm just 33, so I'm going for endurance/cardio type workouts and will start fixing my diet up in around 3-4 weeks.

Ill get some pictures of myself up tomorrow and begin logging tomorrow as well. I'm just now getting out of the shock out of losing my mom and have been laying around the house all day. I need to go to the city for work in the morning, and plan on hitting the gym around 730 or so. Ill try to organize this a little bit better and would love any tips or anything from you guys. Also mods move this if its in the wrong section, wasn't sure where to put it.


Any questions or anything just ask as well! Lets make the misc great again with an inspiring thread/transformation/whatevs.
