Do you brace your abs 24/7?

another balconybro tripfag to filter

> that angle

just fuck off already man

> sitting in a chair and I still have visible abs.

No shit retard, crunching over with that myspace angle makes abs come out on a fat dude too

Well after I stopped powerlifting, I went into a depression and stopped eating, then I met a girl and dated her for like 4 months and during that time I went vegetarian and lost a bit of weight, and now we've been broken up for like the past 2 weeks and i'm only just getting back into the gym now but the gains are coming back super fast. During that time when I was with the girl I was lifting inconsistently and not as often so Idk its really hard to say how long it took me to get from pic a to pic b, but going vegetarian definitely got me really shredded. here's a pic from when I wasn't eating meat and still had gainz before i lost them all.

wow i didn't know I could herd so many angry virgins with a pic of my abs, stay mad skinnyfats ;)

>gets btfo for being a lying twink
>"y-yea, well you're just angry virgins"

great argument, you autistic shitter

what am i lying about again? I literally DO NOT FUCKING TRAIN CORE. I was on c6w for the longest time before i stopped lifting, and in that period of time I did absolutely no core. Now i'm on PPL and I still dont fucking train core. You're mad because you're not getting the answers you want but i'm giving you nuthin but the truth.

post a photograph without the meme angles or turn the tripcode off, it's just embarrassing at this point my friend.

if you want i could give you some bullshit about p90x and maybe that'll get your tummy a bit flatter tubby lumpkins?

You're being rused pretty hard here sempai

i don't care about that, i care about how much of a fag you are for taking pictures at that gay ass angle and flexing and then saying "oh yea i'm not even flexing"

nobody wants your life story you faggot kek

These people are probably those guys who don't even lift but reads Veeky Forums for the memes

> roiding for this

>responds twice to the same post

are you that mad about being called out? might as well just go full retard and start blatantly shitposting, you've already got the retard part figured out and your shitposts are mildly obvious

>roiding
oh lord if only

This is right about three months, my first priority was to just put some fucking weight on my body and not be completely pathetically weak. I stalled on my bench and switched up rep schemes, seemed to work and now I'm back in order. Do you think I can each a bodyweight bench for 3x5 before august?

i think you're confusing the difference between your dad shooting a wad of testosterone laden protein in your asshole and you shooting exogenous testosterone into your asscheek

WTF, you're so not natty... *checks delts* yep, defs not natty, stop lying man.

why are you so upset friend :^)

pic unrelated to your post, but very related to why you're so upset

lmao *checks delts*

im curious how you look with a front on pic, and height/weight?

currently i'm regaining a lot of weight since a new medication i started taking caused me to drop like 6-7 lbs, but i'm around 6' and 151 right now.

post a front pic so we can see that DYEL body and you can stop hiding behind camera angles

I'm sorry that your post got derailed so hard by some phaggots.
Just follow for a while.

But the most important thing to grow muscle is
1) eating enough protein (1g/lb of lean bodyweight is more than enough, but try aiming for it to find your own sweetspot)
2) eating on a slight caloric surplus (maybe GOMAD is a bit too much to be honest)
3) lifting every time more, aka Progressive Overload

If you do all those 3 things, the only thing left to do is wait, enjoy your journey man

Yea nice thats some decent weight gain. did you do GOMAD aswell?

I do hope youre rusing him

What i meant by that is that if you get all 3 things, the routine you follow is not that important. Just do the one you enjoy the most, because it will be the one that you will follow for the longest time.

A bad routine is only a routine that does not let you do 3) while doing 1) and 2) + sleeping enough (8-9 hours for an adult male)

Nah, I have slight lactose intolerance so I keep it to two or three glasses a day tops. My stable is beef patties, tuna, and rice. I get all of my macros and cals from food because I'm a poorfag and don't want to invest whey.

ok cunt lmao

Thanks man I have drank milk most my life so a gallon isnt to bad. Im also going to drink 2 tins of these a week(pic related) When i got out of hospital a while ago they told me to drink 2x 1kg tins a week to put on weight.

spent hours trying to get the lighting right and you're still small as fuck while flexing

And the nutritional info

*staple

*in whey

whey actually isnt that expensive, its just the original purchase. but the protein you get is cheaper than the food equivalent

god you're so upset LOL please cry some more
>being this mad at someone over an image board because you look like shit irl
literally kill yourself

ok now youre just plain butthurt man. he neevr claimed to look big or better than anyone simply acknowledged he had decent abs with minimal to no effort.

Are you trying to cast a projectile spell?

Then what would you suggest I buy that isn't shit and is the cheapest per pound? From what I understand, unflavored isolate is the best.

i didn't even post back yet :/

yeah but i was thinking more of like an ice bolt or something cool asf you should redo the mspaint drawing you did with an ice bolt

Listen to this guy here and you'll get there in 6-10 months if you train and eat well.

Thanks senpai

He's kinda half right. You don't need to train core to have abs. It helps to make them thicker, but if your bodyfat is low enough then they will be visible anyway even when not flexing. But no one has defined abs when unflexed. I haven't trained my core in a year or more maybe.

I just took 2 pics now to show the difference between flexed and unflexed, I'm about 6% bodyfat. I don't really care if it triggers people.

That is nice.

But just make sure that you eat enough protein (see ) that is the most important thing, without protein you will just not put on muscle.

As in what you linked and GOMAD: if you gain too much fat really fast (i would say that gaining more than 0,5kg a week means you are gaining pointless fat) then slow down the pace bro.

I get that you want to gain weight fast, really, i've been there. But getting too fat will just make you look even worse, believe me.

nice v taper you got low insertions, looking like a flying squirrel nigga

keked hard

>6% bodyfat

No. You are 10%. Jesus Christ I mean you look good and all but I wish people would stop being so delusional about underestimating their bf%.

thanks brah im training back and biceps today, gonna think of your nice words while i hit a set of rows

This is the program I've been getting results btw. Started with SS for a few months and switched to GSSL.
Lower squat volume and better press progression with microloading. AMRAP sets are also neat.

...

OK THIS IS EVEN COOLER LMAO

I love when posts go this way. This is the reason i browse Veeky Forums

>using hideous android emojis
>sending a snap with a stupid ass caption

Thanks man I've been eating as much as possible.
I will be doing the same i reckon. Ill start with SS likesaid

I figure it's due

Bodyweightfag checkin in. Heres my progress from summer 2014 to nowish.

Please donut do GOMAD for your own sake. You need to bulk up but i feel like GOMAD overdoes it. Just eat more calories. No need for galon of milk a day and shit. Natty gains await you.

(i'm )

Good call, when you find yourself comfortable with the form on the main lifts (bench press, overhead press, deadlift and squat) and your progress (the amount of weight you put on the bar) starts to slow down, then you can put on more exercises to SS like chin-ups, curls and general arm workout

If you are going to follow SS: do it smart: read:
fitsticky.com/starting-strength
ALL of it, and don't add anything until what i told you happens

But that's just my opinion bro

>2pl8 sumo deadlift

C'MON, oh and change your filenames if it's from Facebook.

that was from last year lmao, my max deadlift was 385. and shoot me an add on facebook then ;)

Dont worry bro. Whenever anyone looks good here DYELs come out bitching about angles/lighting. You look good. Anyone that says otherwise should post their own pic with that pose.

174kg? Don't be so smug about it, you're nothing special.

What's your max?

Nothing special either. 220kg

Good job :)

GOMAD is just temporarily just so i can stretch my stomach to eat more.
Im reading it now but it does seem like the best way to go.

no it's not, stop forcing this

>so i can stretch my stomach to eat more.
Nah. Just eat more. You can also start eating cottage cheese or taking casein before bedtime for a little extra. Go with eggs, chicken breast and other meme lifting foods during the day.

ehl oh ehl then don't download it

>No fun allowed
Wew lad

Thank you, but my goal is to get to 250kg, but that'll require at least another year, but my main goal is to get that motherfucking bench press past 100kg, because it's embarrasing.
What are your stats?

I do bodyweight but these are my maxes
Bench 205(pounds obviously)
Squat atg 245×3
Didlylift 245×3
Ohp 135×2
When i get in a gym gonna max my ohp and squat cause im pretty sure they shouldve gone up

Not bad for doing bodyweight exercises. How long you you've been doing this?

Its hard to say at this point. Ive been doing sports since 11 but not sure when i started regularly lifting.
Also i do go to the gym quiet a bit(usually around 1-3 times a month) so its not like bodyweight exercies magically carry over to weights.

im just here for the shirtless photos desu keep em coming boys

Sorry but this thread is for ridiculing people's poses/angles, not actual progress.

Well if you go to a gym 1-3 times a month then yeah, they pretty much magically carry over. I am lifting for like 3 years, but I had 2 surgeries (pectus excavatum) and for a year I was just going to the gym irregulary because i was completely burned out of it. Also in those years I gained 30kg of nice mass (I used to be a spoopy skeletal), but now in the last 6 months I've been going to the gym 3-6 times a week and feel pretty good. The reason why I posted this blog is because i'm trying to "justify" my average lifts.
Squat 200kg (This isn't my full potential and I could go for 210 or even more, but I'm having a hard time getting over the fear of killing myself and my spotters. It's a shitty psichology.)
Bench 100kg
Deadlift 220kg

You realize i was using pounds right? Your lifts are way higher than mine.

You wouldnt last that many days at the gym in a row, train as hard as you can and get a fair amount of protein in on monday, train tuesday to whatever extent you can, leave wednesday for rest and staying hyrdrated, a little bit on thursday but keeping it nice and easy, try go for conditioning on this day with small weights or whatever you do, rest once again and repeat on saturday, rest sunday and go hard on monday

Well since it's summer and I can't go on weekends anymore so I just go 4 or 5 times a week.
On monday I hit the legs, biceps
Tuesday- tits and shoulders
Wednesday is back
Thursday is triceps, biceps
Friday- legs and chest

I rest my legs during chest, and back during tricep day, so everything is fine.

Yeah, I do realise that, I'm just saying that whoever goes to gym like I do is always stronger than me which kinda sucks.

Really? What gym do you go to?
I go to a a YMCA and can outlift a lot of people. Most ive seen anyone squat was 185 with quarter ROM.
Maybe go to commercial gym. You save money+ego boost.

Well I go to a basement type gym, it's a powerlifting one, so there are some serious monsters. Honestly, I wouldn't trade that filthy basement into those top tier gyms, you know. In that shithole eveyone is a friend, if you're going for your max, everyone is watching and shouting so you could make it, there is this veteran who is over 40 years old and looks fucking amazing and is strong as fuck. He also shares some good advice. It's a great place, it's only regulars, so we're like a family there. So fuck those commercial gyms, there goes mostly twinks who want to stare at chicks asses all day long and take selfies and that ruins the whole atmosphere.

You hit biceps twice and triceps once? Why?! And chest on the same day as legs? You're not hitting legs enough if you got energy to do chest on that day as well and if you do your lifts will probs suffer.

No. Friday is an easy day, I just do a little bit of legs and then chest. As for triceps, I'm aware that it's bad but I hate tricep workout, but I do put in some weighed dips here and there, but full tricep workout is once a week.

you look and talk like a douche. prove me wrong.

you are the reason so many people don't lift

did you do any lifting before?
Chest looks huge for untrained in he before pic.

Also what bodyweight routine? Have to switch to one
