Greetings everyone!

I have been lifting weights and doing cardio off and on since I was a teenager and never quite made the results I was looking for. Even while in the marines and running miles and miles every day I was always soft looking. Now I'm looking hard at 30 and ready to admit I just dont know what I'm doing. There's so much info and garbage out there now its hard to tell whats what. I grew up in a household of atkins dieters so carbs are the devil. Ill be posting photos and take any advice given.

Thanks

My guess off the bat would be you’re not putting the effort into diet. Surly, a Marine knows how to workout hard. Start by tracking your cals.... 1g of protein per lb of body weight is the place to start. I’d recommend MyFitnessPal & find your TDEE.

Burlap is a hipster thing. I would have gone with cotton but thats also complicated. Silk was the best option.
