The "before" pic .........
Steve Tue, June 7th, 2005, 10:56 PM and the after ................
Oldboy Tue, June 7th, 2005, 11:01 PM Holy friggin' crap, now THAT is why I joined SGX. Great work dude! Shows what a person is capable of when they really aspire to do something
Nico Tue, June 7th, 2005, 11:03 PM From the looks of it Swolecat knows his shit when it comes to cutting. Nice work man, that must've been some serious dedication. :tu:
You look damn ripped even with the body hair, which is tough to pull off.
JuGa Tue, June 7th, 2005, 11:03 PM Wow that's a big change for sure..... if i keep watching transformations like this my list of idols and guys that have inspired me is going to be so huge that might collapse. You look a little bit like i do right now in your before pic, and how long did it take you for this change? Sorry if i ask too much but do you have MSN or any messenger where i can talk to you?
Thanks
Julian Gallardo
P.S: I'm a 15 years old guy that just wants a transformation exactly like you =P
slush_puppy Tue, June 7th, 2005, 11:07 PM You look awesome, great work! :tucool:
krosspyder Tue, June 7th, 2005, 11:29 PM good job!
how long was the transformation?
roughly how much does SGX cost. swole cat is the shit... much respect for that guy.
jsbrook Wed, June 8th, 2005, 12:40 AM Very good results and progress! What is your next goal?
Oldboy Wed, June 8th, 2005, 07:06 AM Check out his sig for starting dates
Hort Wed, June 8th, 2005, 07:49 AM NICE! :tu:
4horsemen Wed, June 8th, 2005, 08:19 AM Man that's insane. I see he has a shred program and a "lean mass" program. I was thinking of trying out the lean mass program after I finish my cut in late July.
Steve Wed, June 8th, 2005, 09:01 AM Holy friggin' crap, now THAT is why I joined SGX. Great work dude! Shows what a person is capable of when they really aspire to do something
Thanks ! I had a smile on my face for an hour after I read that :tu:
As far the questions. SGX ( the cutting program ) costs $200.00 and I think its worth every penny. He send you 2 eating patterns and a workout program and 30 days consultation. Theres LOTS of info on it in these forums and many have tried it. Some folks like it and some dont BUT it did give me the results and info. I was looking for.
I'm sitting at 142.5lbs and 9ish % bf last I checked , I already sent away and recieved Swoles SUP2 bulking program and am starting that next Monday. Hopefully I'll add 2 + inches to my arms and my bulk will come out as good as Johns did. :D
As far as the body hair , I just cant bring myself to shave it off :o So I'm all about trimming it short with the beard trimmer . Maybe after the next cut ............
jrb Wed, June 8th, 2005, 12:19 PM :spaz: CONGRATS! what a phenomenal transformation! :claplow:
SWAT Wed, June 8th, 2005, 12:21 PM my wife shaved a patch of hair out of my stomach a few weeks ago, it still hasnt grown back :(
Oh and good job!
LeftNut Wed, June 8th, 2005, 02:07 PM Awesome job man! Wow....that is a fantastic change.
Steve Wed, June 8th, 2005, 03:08 PM Awesome job man! Wow....that is a fantastic change.
Thanks LN , and thanks to everyone else.
It took 5 months but I think it was a good cut , lost 36 lbs ( 178.5 to 142.5 ) and went from 23% bf to 9 ish% bf :D . Bulkin starts Monday with SUP2.
SGX rocks :spaz:
Shastaniel Wed, June 8th, 2005, 07:33 PM Steve,
I'm curious, did you drink any alcohol while on this program? Might sound like a weird question... but I'm interested in using SGX sometime later this year and was just wondering in all his nutritional genius if Chris (SC) finds some way to allow a moderate intake if just once a week. I managed to get to 15% BF and 30 lbs less on my own dieting but didn't hardly ever drink (and I was often times miserable for missing out on my college parties because of it), but I'd like to try Swole's program to get down to 10% like you.
Great job, anyway!

I've had 10 beers since new years eve :D 6 a few weekends ago and the rest spread out here and there. Dont see a need to drink for fun or recreation anymore .............. always leads to bad stuff happening to somebody , TRUST ME , drinking isnt worth all the bull shit that goes along with it. Booze is bad for cutting anyway. If your serious about getting fit then bye bye alcohol :spaz: but do whatever makes YOU feel good ( in moderation , of course ). You would have to talk to Chris , but I'm pretty sure he would advise against drinking on SGX :gl:
Shastaniel Wed, June 8th, 2005, 08:34 PM Trust me I agree on you for the most part about it not being worth the price... I don't like to get hammered anyway, I was just talking about 3-4 beers one night a week. I don't think Swole would encourage consumption, either ;)

I guess you could have that on your cheat day , but alcohol just screws up cutting bad. It really isnt worth it , for me anyway. I'm done with it , water / lemonade does me just fine. Some folks dont get why I wasnt drinking ........ I dont get why they want to stay fat !!!
Skoorb Wed, June 8th, 2005, 10:06 PM Phenomenal!
jsbrook Thu, June 9th, 2005, 12:30 AM Good luck on the bulk Steve.
jasoncurry29 Thu, June 9th, 2005, 11:04 AM Man those are some serious results...... I'm still trying to lose another 10 10 15 lbs..... if what I'm doing now doesn't work.....I might have to find $200 for that!
Steve Thu, June 9th, 2005, 11:08 AM Good luck on the bulk Steve.
Thanks :tu:
Looking forward to eating more "real foods" at meal time :D
Steve Thu, June 9th, 2005, 11:10 AM Man those are some serious results...... I'm still trying to lose another 10 10 15 lbs..... if what I'm doing now doesn't work.....I might have to find $200 for that!
Its worth it , I'm a big believer of SGX. It WILL lean you out and let you keep the mass you have , only prob was for me I had the skinny fat guy thing working so I didnt have much mass to start with !!!!! I kept what I had though and now I have a great base to bulk on :flex:
Oldboy Thu, June 9th, 2005, 11:21 AM yeah you and I are similar. I am off SGX, but I think what I am going to do, is do the workout of SGX, but mix the eating from both SGX and BFFM. I really do like low carb and high carb days, instead of constant low card, and a cheat day

I'm a fan of SGX and I did it to the letter , on one post on his site I mentioned what I had for a cheat meal and he responded "thats a cheat meal???" :lol: LoL Even my cheat meals were not that bad , just bigger portions of a regular SGX meal. Never had a cheat day only a meal , once a week if that.
Bottom line is its a great program for ME and ultimately you have to do whatever works for ya. Good luck , let me know how the SGX / BFFM combo works 4 ya.
thepump13 Thu, June 9th, 2005, 09:40 PM steve,
that is so awesome...what a transformation and an inspiration!! Dp you have any thoughts on SGX for women? I am 5'8", 140 pounds (I can't believe we are almost the same weight!) and I am around 18% body fat. I have definition for sure but could stand to lose. I am in fat loss mode but not getting the results. What are your thoughts on this for women? anyone?

Well it can and has worked for women although Swole has the "femgenix" program that may be more suited for you. Check out his site/forums. Lots of info there. I post under "steve" there as well and will be up on his wall of fame soon as I've already been asked and pics have been sent :D I'm sure you look good at 140, but I'm sure at 130 you would be hot as hell :tu: post a pic or two so we can see 'cause 18% is just about perfect for a women.
Timbermiko Fri, June 10th, 2005, 11:42 AM Steve, great transformation!
One question, how tall are u?
Sole Fri, June 10th, 2005, 11:58 AM Awesome job, Steve! :claplow: You look great.
Now bust out that razor! You'll look even more ripped w/o hair.
causticmuse Fri, June 10th, 2005, 12:01 PM Great work Steve! :) Makes me want to kick into a mini-SGX cycle again now that work has lightened up a bit.
Steve Fri, June 10th, 2005, 12:20 PM I'm 5'8" tall and thanks for all the new replies. Makin my day ! I cant bring myself to shave the hair off. I just trim it short , I'm in consultation with Swole and am putting off my SUP2 bulk ( that was going to start Monday ) 'cause hes gonna work with me on his 7 days to leaness program. After he figures the amounts for my frame I'm gonna do that. Then the entire ab region ( 8 pack ) will show. Its vain , its just temporary , and its just gonna be for pictures sake :tu: Then the bulk will begin so I can get some muscle mass !!!
causticmuse : I followed your progress when you were over on Swoles site and ya did a great job, everytime ya post pics you look better and better :drool: Your guys a lucky man.
Oldboy Fri, June 10th, 2005, 02:21 PM how do you get the 7 days thing? a succesful SGX completion or something?
Steve Fri, June 10th, 2005, 02:57 PM how do you get the 7 days thing? a succesful SGX completion or something?
NO , not at all :lol:
I was complaining about how my lower abs werent completely "popped" out so were gonna try that to see if it works. He thinks it will and I believe him so I'm giving it a try. Its only temporary , and its just for pictures and "MY" vanity :D Its a rough 7 days but why not , pictures last a lifetime :cool:
The routine is posted on his website so check it out , hell I've seen it on here before. Hes just gonna help me with the food/water/sodium amounts.
straylight Sat, June 11th, 2005, 08:05 PM hi all
i was just wondering what SGX meant..is it a workout plan?? please post some info or a site
thanks
Steve Sun, June 19th, 2005, 10:58 AM Just wanted to bump this to give my final SGX results 'cause the bulk starts Monday.
Weighed in today at 141 lbs and and got my bf tested this morning at the gym and now I'm 8% body fat. SGX rocks , best fat loss move I made , worth every penny.
Devery Sun, June 19th, 2005, 11:07 AM Please be sure to post more pics!

ts_barnes Mon, June 20th, 2005, 09:11 AM I was trying to find more info on the website (/www.vizualxcellence.com) about the program etc.. but wasn't able to. I am curious about the workouts, supplementing etc..
1) Is it a 6day split routine (Weight training/Cardio?)
2) Did he have you on supplements?
I appreciate the help/direction!
Thanks,

Like who said , "thats the info you have to pay $200.00 for" , search these forums and more importantly go over and search Swoles site/forums. Lots of info out there if you look around for it. :gl:
Just so ya know , I'm not being rude but details of each and every SGX / SUP2 program are different and personalized so you are to keep "your" info to yourself. Maybe email Swolecat and ask HIM about HIS programs. :confused:
mikeh Mon, June 20th, 2005, 01:46 PM OUTSTANDING job, Steve :tu:
jRS Mon, June 20th, 2005, 03:26 PM Swolecat knows is stuff but you are the one who did it. Congrats!

TFXP-Zeke01 Mon, June 20th, 2005, 08:09 PM Congrats Steve. Another fellow SGX'er here.:) I'm on my 12th week and down to 230LB's from 255LB's. Swolecat's SGX program is amazing! It's the best $200 I've spent ALL YEAR! By next Summer, I'll have forgotten what a shirt is. :D
groomy Mon, June 20th, 2005, 09:34 PM Fantastic transformation. So much so that you have sold me on SGX. I looked at it a short while ago but decided I'd try some other things.
Now I have seen your transformation and how much positive feedback I've seen I've decided to give it a go! Hopefully I'll be able to get started in the next week or two.
Cheers and good health!

chrislj54 Thu, July 28th, 2005, 11:01 PM I was wondering how to get the guide for this cut plan I tried to search on google and on this site, and I was wondering about all that and what supplements if any are you taking is SGX a supplement?
I am new to lifting and trying to find a good cutting program too, currently about 19% body fat and wanting to be around 12-15 by December as a goal. Any help would be great thanks :tu:

LoL , read through this thread , its already been asked and answered in here. SGX is Swolecats cutting plan , if ya want the details ya got to pay Swole for the program , you wont find a guide on-line for it. If you google swolecat his site will come up.
Dont be lazy , if ya search for "SGX" on this site a boatload of thread come up.

Hehe. If you followed a program swole personally setup for you, you would be beyond 12-15% by december. The approach really makes alot of sense.

I took 'em down after the thread got bumped down. I only put them up here so folks that talk smack about SGX could see the kind of results you can get with it. My pics are up in "steves journal" over at Swolecats site and also on his wall of fame on the website so no more need for 'em to be up here. The haters saw my pics and well , they got ........ OWNED :D

You look incredible!!!! And you look 12 years younger. You almost don't look like the same person....
Great Job :claplow: :claplow: :jumping:
