Good luck to ya! It’s definitely doable. Just a thought for you, keep a food log as well as a workout log. I’m sure a slight adjustment in your diet will get you want in no time. I look forward to following your progress.

ditto dbunch. with a solid diet plan, you should be able to loose 17 pounds in less than a month without it affecting your strength much at all. good lifts too!

Going to have to take 2 weeks off tweaked my lower back, Figure's I start using a belt and I get hurt LOL. Will have to regroup problem has to be that 4 years of lifting big requires more time off than one week so I will relax do cardio lose weight and start a new routine like the 5-3-1.
See you in a couple weeks . Giovanni
