Got way too fat post hunting season….

[Darren D]

Every year I gain back the 20ish pounds I lost for hunting season…. Just zero discipline over the holidays. Hit a new high…. Gained 30lbs…. Got pissed at myself and decided to do something about it. Decided to buy a custom nutrition and fitness program tailored to me. Ended up going with the Backbone Unlimited plans.

Has anyone else done Backbone Unlimited’s fitness and/or nutrition plan? I have been doing both for 5 weeks now. All I can say is “WOW!”, and “ouch”. Fat has been falling off my gut faster than a virgin on prom night! 20.0 lbs down in exactly 5 weeks! Ouch because I haven’t been this sore for more than 20 years (but a good sore).

Has anyone else done BU’s programs? If yes, which ones and how is it working out for you? What do you like or feel could be better?

Following as I have thought about doing this program.

Nice work on getting after it and losing the pounds!

Thanks. For nutrition, it’s easy to follow if you do bulk meal prep for 3-4 days at a time. My deer meat is going fast! But so is my gut.

I bought the “intermediate” difficulty for “minimal gear” fitness routine. Oh boy I know I’m out of shape but I should have gone with the beginner routine. But I’ve been sticking with it, week 1 I only did 1/8th the routine. Week 2 1/4. Week 3 was 3/8th…. Basically adding 1/8th of what he calls for every week. By week 8 I should be at the full program. Then I can add more reps and/or weight for the exercises. The purpose of easing into it was not to get any injuries. 20 years ago this wouldn’t have been a problem…

Give it a try. It’s very affordable so you’re risking very little imo.
