Madman's 8 Month Transformation

**madman911** · 11-20-2006, 03:14 AM

What up people, most of you have seen these pics, I did the IMPC and the final pics were submitted yesterday, but I thought I'd put some comparison shots here since made them today to submit myself for a bb.com transformation of the week. I think I should be worthy of one, we'll see.

So I cut for 8 months, shed over 50 lbs of body fat and went from about 24% to somewhere around 8-10% (calipers say I'm much lower but I ain't buying it). I lost 9.5 inches from my waistline. Next step is to build mass and keep the fat low... I want to be 15-20 lbs heavier and much leaner for my first live show in another 1-2 years.

Enjoy the pics, I know I sure do!!!

The before and after pictures don't even look like the same person. If I never knew madman before and someone just showed me a picture of this, I would call BS because the only thing that looks similar is the hair.

**DJSTARER** · 11-21-2006, 12:05 AM

solid man. Now it's time to eat your face off and sleep for the next year before you start all over again.

I mean... it's time to clean bulk!

A_N_91 · 11-21-2006, 08:14 PM

no way, steroids steroids steroids!

just kiddin...thats an awesome transformation, let alone only 8 months

congratz

Burning Angel · 03-19-2007, 07:40 PM

incredible, that is a remarkable transformation in such a small strech of time

fatman · 06-05-2007, 05:06 PM

amazing. simply amazing. how did you do it?

**madman911** · 06-05-2007, 06:40 PM

Fatman, it was just 8 months of hard work. I never once had a 'bad week' where I didn't train or sabotaged my diet. I kept my nose to the grindstone the entire time. The last 12 weeks, I worked with Michael Elias (goes by 'EME' around these parts) on my contest prep protocol. He put me through a grueling ordeal, but I never swayed from the plan, not even once in the entire 12 weeks. The last few weeks I was doing 90 minutes of cardio per day, along with lifting for an hour or so... with only enough carbs in my body to fuel a hamster (slight exaggeration).

If you want a great body, you can do it. You just have to want it badly enough to put yourself through the hard work and sacrifice required to get there.
