I really gotta find a way to drop ten pounds in a month. At the end of August I have a wedding to attend and I want to wear my tailored pinstripe suit that is fitted. Not sure I will fit in it at my current weight.

Yeah, I'm not going to be able to binge drink on the weekend as that adds all the calories back.

I can run 6 miles a day, 3 miles at a time, and go on a low-carb diet filled with just protein and salads.

It will have to be 6 days a week to pull it off, one day of resting.

Also minimize your beer intake. And buy a jump rope.

I leave alcohol out of my diet Sunday through Thursday. But I guess if you're looking to crash 10 lbs you probably want to quash it all together. :cry:
You could have a glass of wine. Or a Skinny Bitch. If you don't wanna quit drinking then have alcohol just once a week and no more than 4 glasses

ok dusan, chest:

*4 warm up sets on the straight bar, then 6 heavy, 3 heavier, and finally 8-10(failure) the heaviest i can do.
*2-3 sets of incline (bar or dumbbells) either your last set or the second one the heaviest
*3 sets dumbbells butterflies: failure at 8-10, then immediately after e sets cables crossover (one of my favorites)
*2 sets decline(my least favorite)
*and if you still got energy, hit straight dumbbells or incline smith

i play around with these and the order except for the first one where it's always straight bench either with bar or dumbbells. more to come...
Is that 6 heavy sets, 3 heavier sets or 6 heavy reps, 3 heavier reps and 8-10 reps to failure? If it the former than it seems like overkill.

no sorry that is reps, so 6 heavy rep, then another heavier set for 3 reps, then the heaviest you can do 8-10 reps of.
I thought so but wasn't sure because I saw one of Dule's workout programs, which had like over 25 sets for chest only. :p
