Introduction

IceDawggg, a Reddit user went through a remarkable transformation in his physique, and his journey was well documented through a series of posts on Reddit. He posted the differences in his appearance and body weight, making progress in just 1.5 years. This article will document his journey, how he maintained his physique, and offer tips on how to progress towards better health.

Defining the Goals

Back in 2019, IceDawggg was a skinny guy, standing at 5'9, and weighing only 120lbs. He had visible abs, but that was all there was to his body. IceDawggg wanted to change that. So he set himself a goal of gaining 30lbs within 1.5 years. He combined an increase in weight with a lean bulk lifestyle, allowing himself to gain weight while still getting lean.

Lean Bulk Tips

The struggle of gaining weight while still getting lean is a difficult one. However, IceDawggg found it through an inconsistent diet. He was not strict on his caloric intake, but he made sure he had enough protein to pack on muscle mass while still keeping the definition. Additionally, he worked out regularly, with a focus on compound lifts, allowing him to tone his entire body rather than isolating specific muscles.

Motivation and Dedication

IceDawggg's journey is a testament to the power of motivation and dedication. He laid out his goals clearly, and consistently documented his progress. He remained focused on his goals, and this dedication allowed him to stay consistent with his lean bulk lifestyle.

Conclusion

IceDawggg's journey is an inspiration to anyone looking to improve their physique. Through hard work, motivation, and dedication, he was able to achieve his goals without sacrificing a healthy diet. This should serve as a reminder to anyone out there that transformation is possible and achievable if one sets their mind and remain dedicated to it.
