since its almost '09, ive set my goal for this year.... I want to reach 225 lbs. with single digit body fat. attached are some pictures that are only about 1 month old. right now i am at about 210 lbs. 6'2".

little bit of background i started at 165 lbs. 3 years ago. i dont really do much cardio as of right now. just looking for some advice on what i should work on, what im lacking ect..... the first picture is before i started

thanks alot

 

forearms for damn sure . Cant see your back but im sure it could use it. Since I dont think you are looking for workout and diet advice I will leave it at that .

 

I dont think you are flexing correctly for the poses you are in. The pics are not showing much definition. You have decent structure but you might need some mass and definition in the muscle groups. An even tan would help too...

Forearms for sure

 

yea sorry about the lack of pictures, these are all i have available on this computer.... forearms huh?? i wouldnt have guessed that, my forearms measure 15 inches and my arms are right around 17 1/2, what the ratio supposed to be at? maybe its the pictures.... and as for the tan i am definitely aware lol..... i am on deployment right now so its pretty much not an option

 

traps need work, definitely

 

Hey, I'm 210lb and I'd love to have a torso like yours. Hell, I'm trying to get to 180 (and the Holidays aren't helping). I'm working out 3-5 days a week (weights & cardio). Though I wouldn't have the tattoos.

I'm assuming you'd need more protein, maybe eggs, chicken, fish, etc. or maybe in those protein shakes. That's only a guess though.

yea i think that might be one of my issues, i cant seem to increase my appetite enough to intake gratuitous amounts of calories. since im in the military, i eat 3 large meals a day, plus the in betweens of tuna, protein ( 3 times a day) and whatever other snacks i eat.

btw i am no pro so my posing could definitely use work lol

 

Perhaps you could try and sneak in another 2 small snacks with your in between meals.

 

nice job (no homo) your arms are find. id say work on your traps. shrugs really help.

i started at 15 weightin around 110-120lbs with a 95lb bench. lifted on and off till about a year and a half ago, iv been there 2 hours a day 3-4 times a week.

about 2 months ago i was 180lbs with 7.9% body fat. im 190 right now. 15.5" arms with around a 44" chest. max bench is 385. im going to try to 405 this weekend. then its on to a bench shirt for 425-455.

Heres a video of my 375 lift.

a slight tan will help look more defined, just dont go overkil..

whatever your doing looks like its working. a 15lb gain without any fat or water is going to take time though. whats your diet like?

 

^^^^ wheres your spotter?
