165 in 2023 vs 2025… the difference is that Q on the left was tired. 2 stage preps only months apart. My body was not happy and you could tell. It still got the job done and I was able to secure my Natural Pro card + clear my name, but the road was rough. Fast forward to 2025 Q. Up until this week, things have been easy. 2450 Calories for 25+ weeks and 35 lbs lost. I’ve gotten used to it being easy…. But for the last week I’ve been a bit burnt out due to the duration of this prep. January 13th I started this prep at 200 lbs, but I really can’t complain about the progress I’ve made. I’m in the best shape of my life & some serious improvements have been made. Home stretch & I can do anything for 9 more weeks. Bring on the shredz.
