Brett Wilkins Lost 98 Pounds And Cut His Body Fat In Half!
After a football injury Brett began to gain weight and was unhappy with his lifestyle. Read on to see how he completely changed his body and found a new passion for bodybuilding!
I've always been a bigger person, but I put on a significant amount of weight after breaking my leg playing football in August 2009. In November of 2009, I realized I gained 30 pounds and was out of shape and unhealthy. I started dieting and going to the gym consistently on November 30, 2009, with the goal of losing weight and getting back to a healthier lifestyle.

How I Did I t
I started off doing cardio and weights 6 days a week. I would do 30-45 minutes on the Elliptical before school and another 45 in the afternoons after weights. I made a point to hit every muscle group twice a week and greatly modified my diet to induce the best results. I started off taking VPX Redline to help shed the unwanted fat. By May 1, 2010, I lost 110 pounds and decided it was time to try and build some serious mass. I changed my rep scheme from high reps with lower weight to lower reps with a higher percentage of my 1RM and increased my caloric intake in hopes of putting on muscle mass. Through all of this, I realized my dream of wanting to one day be a bodybuilder and compete in at least one show. From May 1st until now, I have been working diligently to make sure that this dream becomes a reality. I've gained 12 pounds back during my clean bulking phase and plan to put on an additional 15 pounds before I plan for a competition.

Note: I do Abs on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday and Cardio for a combined hour to hour and a half every day.
Suggestions For Others
Be persistent. All of the cardio and bland tasting food will begin to wear on you over time, but just continue to think of the end result and grind it out in the gym and you will reach your goal.
