Well for a while now I've been doing a lot of weights in the gym and getting a lot bigger... so that is the 'bulking' stage over with.

Now for the cutting stage where I lose the excess fat and start to become ripped.


Any donations received are much appreciated... aiming to cut 30 lbs in 4 months to have a body fat of around 8%... primarily aiming to raise £100.00 over the next 4 months and then start doing long distance running after my knee operation next week.

Much love... Manjel8, your friendly neighborhood fatty. xxx

Hey read ur blog m8, nice work. Good luck in ur endeavours its for a noble cause I know. And the knee-op thing make sure u work ur quads ASAP b4 u get bck on the sports field. Ive had 2 of them (only Arthroscopies) and my muscles switched off on both occasions leaving me on crutches/cane for a while.
Cos I'm Wonderman...I'll take that knife and shove it up your a$$!

Nice one Trin... Yeah I'll make sure that I follow all the exercises they set me.

Its some kind of camera and then cartilage removal. Don't think I'll be out for long but needs to be done as I was running around 20 miles a week before it went.

Will keep the blog updated as I go.

good look man....n ya like trin said, try to bulk up on the muscles around ur knee. iv had my own knee problems from playing football, the more support u can give ur knees (thru a strap on brace - temporary solution tho - and strengthening ur quads and lower body) less chance of injury. keep it flexible too with stretching.

@strider....settle down, this is actually a decent thread on this site, take ur issues elsewhere.

Yeah I will do... It's my left knee which is the weaker one anyway :(

I'll be doing my best to get back running again, was covering around 20 miles a week plus heavy weights sessions last year so bit of a shame I've had a knock back but will be a good challenge!

Read your Blog.  Nice work.

Hmmm.... 6'5" at 240lbs = your an enormous but fit human being compared to the average.  With a 27" inseam though, you're all torso and upper body, which will naturally lead to strain in your knees.

TX is right (being a jock and all), but I would add that I've seen a lot of guys in the USMC wear the prescribed knee braces 24/7 instead of just during activity, which actually hurt them in the long run because eventually they couldn't function at 100% without them.  Good luck.

ya im glad u mentioned that, cuz ur absolutely right...like i said braces are a temporary aid n should b treated as such, wearing them too long ur knee gets used to the constant support n when u take that away, ur just asking 4 trouble. if u find urself using a knee brace alot (doin alot of activity) id say that u should take some time maybe every workout or every other workout, n do limited exercises n plenty of stretching, kinda gauge where ur knee is at n also to let it build strength independent of the brace
