Body building goals

I have been making progress. But one thing I didn't do is set a deadline.

So here it is: I want 18 inch arms and a 48 inch chest at a Body weight of 185 lbs by NOV 1. I want 6 pack abs too. The six pack is there under the 20 lbs of fat. This means I have to lose ten lbs a week over the next two weeks. Not impossible. Its been done. I could even water fast, without any exercise and accomplish this. But I plan to maintain lean muscle mass while losing fat, so maybe I will drop the muscle building goal, though.

I will do this by drinking plenty of water and only water as my beverage.

I will eat only Chicken breast, salad greens, sardines and green vegetables for my diet.

I will run and lift weights five times a week for this, so that would be 10 times, to reach my goal. 10 runs and 10 weight lifting sessions.

After I reach this goal I plan to see how I will look and feel. Try to assess my body fat %. I may adjust it some more. I want to maintain around 6%. Then all the muscle gains I make after that will be really exciting because I will actually see them.

By summer I want to have the porportions and muscular definition of a Greek statue. Heroic build. Plus I want excellent cardiovascular fitness to go with it.
