Q and A with Erny…

What Was Your Life Like Before Your Transformation?*

For most of my life I’ve been a skinny ectomorphy, mainly because I was doing endless amounts of sports growing up (football/tennis/swimming). When I turned 14 I started lifting weights, but I still looked pretty skinny.

It all changed when I turned 17. I saw a bodybuilder on YouTube (Rob Riches) and his body inspired me. From that moment on I promised myself I’d be as big as him in a few years time! In order to put on that size I knew I had to do some serious bulking. That’s what led to my before picture…a fat mess!

Please Detail Your Turning Point:*
After bulking for several months force feeding myself 6,000+ calories a day, I got to around 17% body fat. Considering I’d had a six pack for most of my life – this was seriously out of shape (even if I was bulking). So I said to myself that I’d get back to under 10% body fat, whilst retaining all of my muscle in the process.
What Were Your Major Struggles or Challenges?*
My major struggle was staying consistent over several months. I had a lot of fat to lose, so I knew this was going to be a long cut. I’m a very impatient person who wants fast results, so this was difficult getting my head around this. I kept saying to myself that although my results would be slow and gradual…in the end my transformation would be worth it.
Detail Your Workout and Cardio Plan During Your Transformation:*
Monday – Chest
Tuesday – Back
Wednesday – Legs & calves
Thursday – Arms
Friday – Shoulders & Traps
Saturday – AbsI did all the usual compound exercises for each muscle group i.e. for chest I did barbell bench press, dips, dumbbell bench press, flys etc.Ironically I didn’t do any intense cardio during my transformation. As they say…”abs are made in the kitchen”. However, towards the end of my cut I did incorporate 1 hour of brisk walking a day which helped me overcome any fat loss plateaus.
Detail Your Diet/Eating Plan During Your Transformation:*
My main focus in terms of my nutrition was to eat in a calorie deficit. This involved me working out my BMR – using a calculator online. I would then eat in a calorie deficit of 500 each day and weigh myself every morning. My aim was to lose approximately 2lbs every week. If I didn’t lose this much I would then drop my calories. If I lost too much, I would bump my calories back up.
I literally ate whatever I fancied each day – as long as I was in a calorie deficit. I would eat some junk food at least once a day, whether that was a chocolate bar or a donut. I think this really helped to motivate me in the long-term, as I would’ve lost my mind if I ate clean continuously for 6 months.
Detail Your Supplement Plan During Your Transformation:*

I took:

. Optimum Nutrition’s whey protein pre and post-workout to preserve as much muscle as possible when cortisol levels can spike.
. Optimum Nutrition’s casein protein to keep my muscles in a positive nitrogen balance overnight when sleeping.

What Was Your Major Accomplishment, or Major Milestones?
Getting into the best shape of my life!
Detail Your 3 Biggest Mistakes:*
1) Not including refeeds. Goodbye testosterone and metabolism!
2) Not training my glutes enough. They shrunk a lot by the end of my cut.
3) Not investing in a pre-workout on days when I was feeling sluggish!

1) Slower is better when cutting. If you lose weight too soon, you’ll lose muscle.
2) It is healthy to be lean. I felt so much better physically and mentally after losing the weight and when I did start doing intense cardio again – it was so much easier due to improved blood flow.
3) Looking better boosts your confidence more than you think.

Final Works of Advice for Others Looking to Make a Change?*

I knew 100% before I lost any weight that I would succeed. I would’ve put my life on it. Your mental strength is your greatest asset when trying to lose weight. If you’re not mentally strong, teach yourself how to be…because it’s a psychological test as much as physical one.
