Younger ex-college football player needs guidance

Suds77 · 04-21-2008, 07:22 PM

Hello everyone. I am new to AF but I am not to new to the workout scene.

I played college football as an Offensive Tackle but now I have let it slip from out of football shape to plain out of shape.

I am not getting to the gym as much and have no idea where to go with my diet. To much food I should not eat, and too much food in general.

Anyone willing to help?

So right now, you're just looking to lean. Where exactly do you want to be for weight?

The more you tell us, the easier it will be to give tips. Diet really will be key here if you want to cut.
