5'10, 160lbs, 22, 7 months (haven't taken a picture this month), bench 2pl8 x 8, and OHP is 1pl8 x 8.
I've tried to keep my diet on point but I'm dirty bulking now.
Christian Moore
i fell like the only thing that changed is the lighting
Easton Brooks
man you need to work your chest.
why are you dirty bulking or bulking at all? i dont get it.
Aaron Barnes
>Says no pic. laughing_girls.jpg
Anthony Brooks
I'm not at a high body fat, not sure if cutting is worth it now. I'm not really dirty bulking parse, that was a bad choice of term. I'm just bulking without counting calories, I have a good sense of how many calories are in the meals I make. The only thing dirty is the haagen dazs hazelnut chocolate bar I have.
Gabriel Cook
ur first month is like my first 4 months, at least in muscle mass
i don't get how you can start like that
Christian Stewart
you looked better at 4-5 then 6th
you're getting disproportionate man, get that chest up or your shoulders, arms and lats are just gonna look stupid
Liam Howard
To add to that, I'm working on my chest. Even though my bench is good I don't know why it's not growing proportionally. I've added flies as isolation but even then I don't think it's making a difference. I do incline dumbbell press + bench press + cable flies or butterfly machine on push days.

Tyler Collins
repeated 'abuse' is the only way you're going to make the muscle grow.
pic related is my favorite.
Adrian Cook
I live a pretty sedentary life style and ate healthy before lifting. The most activity I had before lifting was my daily walk, which I skipped most of the time.
Fuck.... I know. Here's my routine, help if you can.
i always aimed for 3x8's too, but never got hung up on the 8 part. especially my last set, i would go to failure every time. sometimes i wouldn't start counting until i felt some fatigue.
just leave the gym knowing you went for broke. dont get hung up on rep amounts -- or even set amounts.
i also never understood why people treat their ab work outs totally different from other muscle groups. 3x90, wat the fuck is that? i would try to do 3x8's for my stomach the same as anything else.
Anthony Adams
How the fuck are you 5'10". im 5'10" and 160 lbs and look nowhere as big as you.
Posting this from the QTDDTOT since i got no replies: Ive been incorporating a few ab exercises and i can see some visible development. How can I, if at all, lose fat in the red area and build muscle in green? Is it fat in the red area?
Will they just even out if i keep at it?
Mason Thomas
Your abs can take a lot more than that, go weighted if you don't want to do lots of sit ups
Logan Lopez
of course you'd use weight on a 8 rep set. no different from anything else.
my triceps could do 3x90s too, but no one does that for a reason.
Carson Peterson
This is very minor things, but the devil is in the details:
* Rearrange exercise in order of difficulty, most people would have you bench pressing > incline/shoulder pressing > accessories. Also pull day could be arranged similary, deadlift first etc. * Have a range instead of 3x8, maybe 3x6-8 or 3x8-12 so you can push yourself harder
Nathaniel Jones
u copying my progress format bruh?

>How can I, if at all, lose fat in the red area and build muscle in green? you cannot target weight loss.
Alexander Fisher
Appreciate the advice. I hold the plank for 90 seconds, now I do it for 120s.
Liam Howard

Everything is lbs, 5x5: >bench 105
>OHP 65
Might as well list the rest. >Squats 200
>Rows 120
>Deadlift 185
I have really weak shoulders, been stagnating on OHP and bench, but especially bench. I feel like such a chump putting on those 10s on the bar when everyone around me is at least doing 35s. Am I doing alright for an uber manlet?
Jaxson Davis
I do kickboxing and am certainly not used to people doing weighted, that was obvious really lol
Lincoln Ross
About a year in, but I have been inconsistent because of school. Been working back mostly to compensate for some pain due to scoliosis, and to hopefully hide the curve behind muscle
Justin Parker
so just keep at it?
Also how do you guys deal with knots? I seem to get a ton of them right under my shoulder blades and while massaging with a lacrosse ball helps, is there anyway i can prevent them in the first place?
Ayden Myers
ya man keep at it.
and get groupons for a massage.
Angel Clark
Whats my bf%? How long do I still gotta be on this fucking cut till I see some abs?
Cut all fast food, junk, and soda. Hopefully more progress next month, aiming to kill this gut and man tits.
Gavin Cox
good job man, keep it up!
Christopher Green
Murder those tiddies and belleeh. It's all about progress, don't stop.
Benjamin Phillips
5'9" bulked up to 170 ny accident Mostly do bodyweight shit
Hudson Gutierrez
Around 15%ish, give or take. Probably another month or two for ab definition I'd guess. Your pic is pretty blurry though.
Matthew Thomas

Fatty here. 6"1' 254 lbs as of an hour ago. Been lifting off and on since high school about 10 years I guess. OHP 185X5, bench 305X5, squat 365X3 (had a back issue and haven't gotten to squat since I fucked my ankle). Only Diddy lift 475

My boyfriend(post-op) says I'm very cute!
Nathaniel Barnes
He looks like a pretty handsome dude m8. You should probably leave vanity and superficial shit to the girls
Brody Bailey
No, he is ugly as sin, which happens to be what your dishonesty is.

Post your face
Alexander Long
He's more like 18%-20% imo. 15% usually begins to have some definition in good lighting
Nolan Bell
Certainly not a skelly anymore m8 gj
Ayden Bennett
~18% I reckon
Alexander Brooks
ive been dropping weight for 6 months now
i thought i'd be there by now
Alexander Wright
(pic is a few months old) I started lifting (inb4 hungry skeleton) but I have pectus and can't afford a surgery. I don't want my pecs to look like boobies, from the side it's even stronger...am I fucked, shouldn't I train chest or what? I just think it looks really shit and won't allow me to make it
Ethan Carter

In 7 weeks you can OHP 135 and Bench 185 for reps? Did you do any previous training before?
Adrian Flores
>squats just a couple pounds heavier than bench I know that feel.
Leo Price
I know that feel as well. I just feel really comfortable pressing weight with my upperbody compared to putting weight on my back. Thanks.
Aaron Gutierrez
ohboy this manlet again
John Bennett
looking good mate, keep going on
Dylan Johnson
Definitly working on it. I hope I can hit 1/2/3/4 by the end of the year. I've almost got 4pl8DL, I've gotten close
Blake Garcia
mirin how in the world you got rid of that lower belly fat so fast? Share diet and routine pls
Michael Reed
I ate bacon, eggs, avocado, beans, chicken, steak, vegetables, lentils, and quinoa almost exclusively for 3 months while "cutting" on 3000cal daily. My tdee is incredibly high due to my size and activity level. Routine is Greyskull LP. I've been lifting for 6 months or so. I do a lot of bouldering so that helps burn some cals
nice nips, son. when's your surgery scheduled for?
Matthew Martin
nut in me?
Parker Garcia
Are you getting shorter?
Evan Long
that's great progress for 11 months, keep it up brah, maybe do a cut after winter bulk, lower body fat is great for general health.
Nathan Green
yeah I fell for the squat meme ;_; Currently cutting slowly so I can do a long bulk after summer without looking like a lardass after 3 months
Thanks!
Jackson Richardson
It's not that bad. Remember if you're a fitizen, you probably have a bit of body dysmorphia like the rest of us. You look like shit but only because you're small. Your pectus isn't that bad and would look fine with decent pecs and some abs/shoulders to go with it. Yeah, it's not perfect, but you'll still look amazing if you added some weight to that frame. You at least have wide shoulders / thin waist and low bf to start with. Lift and do a lot of chest, you'll be fine if you find the dedication.

You're a big guy
Josiah Howard
I mean you're not wrong in that they have a higher chance of messing you up, but they also make you feel good af unlike machines.
Nothing compares to finishing up a 6 week program by smashing your previous one rep max. Literally feels better than cumming tbH
Joseph Cruz
Just taken a few mins ago. End of my cut (have a thing this weekend I wanted to be lean for), so the weight is going back up after this lol
Asher Davis
nice flexing in last pic faggot
Robert Peterson
Shave you nigga faggot

Look at the size of your hand to the size of your body. You're DYEL.
Ethan Foster
Do I have gyno? I have always been a big guy (4u), I'm 6'3 and currently 215lbs. I have never really followed a program until recently and for most of my life never even worked on my chest, and it's bretty weak. I can't tell if it's fat or gyno, how can you tell?
Oliver Morgan
Shut up retard i have gigantic hands Thats an 6s plus
