    Training before wedding

    If this is in the wrong section, feel free to move it.

    I have a wedding to go to near the end of September, and the measurements for the tuxes need to be in by September 11th so I will probably go the first weekend in September to get measured.

    The problem lies in the fact that the wedding is 2,357 miles (3,794 km) away, and I won't be able to pick up the tux until the day before the rehearsal (I don't even know what they look like).

    I would like to start the WBB Routine #1, but I am wondering if I should just put it off until after the wedding because I don't know how my body will react while on the routine, and I know some body parts respond better than others.

    My concern is throwing all the tux measurements off to some degree or another and having to go through the process of having something altered last minute and have the rental cost more. It might cost more anyways, because I have arms that are shorter for my height than they should be.

    What do you guys think?

    I doubt very much that you will be able to alter your measurements so much that a tux will not fit within the month.

    The only way I see this happening is if you lose an incredible amount of weight over a 3 week period.

    Don't worry about it.

    Unless you're on roids for that month, I wouldn't worry about it. That is, unless you have no discipline an gorge yourself with food making you gain like 10 pounds in the month. If anything, eat slightly above maintenance.

    I'm with Gyno, even wbb#1 won't change you that much in a month.

    LOL I thought this thread might have been whether or not to reschedule a wedding because it happened to fall on squat day.
    Chris Mason is my master.....

    American cars are like fat people, sure, they have a lot of power, but they're not built well, and they have all that useless weight, plus they make both make funny noises.

    feel free to aim me, nejar462 im on a lot. Don't know much to warn you dudes, but im good at conversations.

    I say reschedule it. Marriages can happen any day of the year, squat day comes but once a week.

    (Chances are changes won't be too drastic in one month. Don't worry about it, and get training.)

    A rented tux has a waist (at least) that expands and contracts with the use of button/snap device on both sides of the waist. If there was any change in the neck size they can switch the shirt out on the day you pick it up or give you an extender insert that opens the collar another 1/2 size. You supply the socks, so bring them with you. Oh yeah... You should always wear underwear the same color as the tux as pants that have been dry cleaned over and over can split easy. If your underwear is the same color a rip may not be noticed. And wear briefs because boxers under fitted tux pants look like your wearing diapers. Any other tux questions...???
