I'll be switching back to a very boring, but very high protein diet*, doing strength training (the final push back to benching 300lbs!!)\ and cardio in split sessions.

Weight training in the morning, cardio in the afternoon or evening.

I run a 5 day workout rotation
1) legs
2) chest/abs
3) back
4) shoulders/abs
5) arms (tris and bis)

cardio is either 30 minutes of interval training on a bike & trainer or 1 hour of easy spinning

while I'll be focusing on strictly weightloss, I'll minimize caloric restrictions until March, where I'll kick into high gear for summer. From past experience, there's no reason I couldn't cut 35-50lbs by July. But since I'm turning 30 in May, I'm just going to listen to my body and make adjustments. Feeling like crap or killing myself is not a goal.

* I don't do atkins, or the popularily poorly executed version of it per se... high fiber, high protein, minimal fat, and low carb.
