one more 18 month bulk and I will be god mode. I remember being bullied posting in threads like this 4 years ago.
Whatever you did, you did it wrong. Could've easily gotten these results naturally in 2 years
>>37457593
this guy
>>37457576
>>37457576
why do you think anything will change? you will still get bullied, /fit/ is usually pretty good at finding and exploiting insecurities
mirin anyway, what are your lifts currently?
>>37457576
>still gets bullied
>>37457576
Natty?
Nice sideways torso-twist shot, bro. I'm sure you're not a framelet or anything.
>>37457593
How?
>>37457658
So you got fat? Congratulations?
>>37457576
12 pounds of muscle in a month. Natty as fuck.
>>37457681
No lol
>>37457681
yes
>>37457576
I start like this
Started at 150lbs in January > 165lbs currently.
Posture gains 5'10 > 5'11
OHP 1pl8 x 5
Bench 2pl8 x 5
No squat or diddly area in my gym, so I just use various machines to supplement.
I've been eating a 300kcal surplus, but cheated on weekends.
Planning on cutting for a month to lose some fat, guessing I put on 8-10lbs of lean mass and 5-6lbs of fat.
Routine is PPLxPPL
My chest is lacking big time. I dunno if I store more fat in this area or if the lack of chest isolation resulted in a lack of growth. I think bench is meme lift. I'm doing flies and other chest isolation's now. Only chest compound is weighted dips. which I did for the first time this week. I was able to go up to 75lbs for 10 reps last week, this week I got up to 80lbs + BW x 10. Chest pump was great. I'm cutting bench from my routine.
>>37457779
2,5 month hard train
>>37457668
180kg dead
120kg squat atg
100kg incline bench (dont do flat)
80kg ohp
im not actually super strong besides maybe my ohp
>>37457788
This is my symmetric strength. Yellow is good right?
>>37457711
lol
>>37457576
>>37457796
aren't these like identical to hodgetwins stats?
6'3 ~210?
>>37458164
pretty sure they are like around 208 but leaner than I was at 196, they prob got like 15lbs of muscle on me. and they are like 6'2 and I'm on the taller side of 6'3.
>>37458261
damn. I think you made it brah. congrats
you're actually natty? amazing
routine?
>>37457593
maybe he could've maybe he couldn't do you personally know him and does he converse with you about his bodies biology and natural test levels?
>>37457576
First time in life I've done something more or less consistently and it had results. Feels good.
Weight lifting 3x times a week, cardio 3x times a week, alternating days. About 750 average calorie defecit.
For the first time in forever, managed to do a pullup last week. On Saturday did three pullups.
>>37457576
nice progress
too bad your face looks like your a fag
>>37458294
haven't done any specific routine the whole time but full body 3 times a week is probably the closest. A lot of focus on 5x5 progression.
>>37458321
not sure who can gain around 40-50lbs of muscle in 2 years. I'm not particularly hard working or on point with diet though, my best trait is I rarely miss a workout. I've missed maybe 10 workouts in 5 years.
>>37458356
>what is a screenshot
5lbs/month is pretty good, maybe go for a bit less to minimize muscle loss.
What's the software in the pic?
just recently started lifting again after a way too long break. kiddo is turning 2 in july.
>>37457576
Does the gross stomach wrinkle thing become less noticeable if you get a proper sixpack?
I have one and I hate it.
>>37458686
I'm mirin the loss of those stretch marks
are they still visible at all from close up?
>>37457576
lmao u pull your beanie down to hide your receding hairline

I'll take care of that kid in true cuck fashion
>>37458726
barely visable if not inspected really close. they fade over time. the ones on thighs are slightly visible when wearing shorts and stuff but those on hips are pretty much gone

I started at 6'2" 148 lbs, now after a year I weight 180, I gained a bit of fat too but I feel I don't have enough muscle to cut.
>>37457576
your shoulders blew up in the 2014 pic, very nice work dude
>>37458878
Made yourself a lot of gains, nice
Can't tell from the pics but assuming you were 15% BF before, worked out and ate consistently for 12mo you should've gained 20 - 24 lbs muscle, leaving u ~150lbs lean mass, ~17% bodyfat.
If you eat at maintenance, high protein, and continue lifting consistently I think you can lose some BF and gain a little more muscle simultaneously. Might be slightly less efficient than just continued bulk though.

Cron-o-meter
Just made this for someone I'm training who was feeling discouraged because they screwed up and let themselves get way out of shape, ballooned 40lbs. Everyone falls off for some reason somewhere along the way. Life happens, injury, jobs, etc. Sort it out and come back with more fire and dedication than before.
>>37458794
>sweden
bet the kids half black
>>37457576
Forgot to train forearms.
>>37458686
I want to lick your Kirby... if you know what I mean.
>>37458794
>>37458686
how did you get rid of them? I got some stretch mark lotion from walmart to get rid of some i've been developing around my armpits and on my legs
>>37459011
according to what ive been reading here and there you cant really do anything about it. they will show less and less over time.
that cream will prolly make your skin smooth af tho
>>37458979
whiter than me, even if mixed kids are cute.
>>37457576
I know this was over a long time, but if my goal body is similar, although i'm a manlet ;_;, what kind of routine should I go for? What did you do?
>>37458959
Thanks man, yeah I would like to drop some bf% so I can bulk again after summer without getting too fat. Also I am afraid I am more than 17% bf, but maybe is because my stomach is always bloated and gives that impression
I'm cutting till I see abs or die
Tired of being big I just want to be small. Goal is 80 kg for now.
>>37457811
Where are your legs?
>>37459077
great progress man! looking real good in maypicture
>>37457576
Those 5 inch wrists though.
>>37459046
Even if the kids white skin, it's still mixed race you cuck
I have no idea what I'm doing.
Strict diet and lifting + cardio since august.
320 to about 220 lbs
>>37459324
>roids
pls go.
>>37459411

>>37457779
>>37457794
>tfw wide hips
>>37459072
Yeah, 24 lbs / 2 lbs lean mass per month is pretty optimistic.
>>37459183
Lifts for before and after?
I look like you in the before pic

>>37458967
Ey Balconybro, I just wanted to say thank you. I really appreciated that Q&A thread you made recently. That was some good stuff, very motivational.
First pic is from 5 years ago, second about 2 years after first decent bulk, and current on summer cut.
>>37457796
>80kg OHP
>95 kg bw
>strong
I mean come on, considering those numbers I probably agree with >>37457593 here, you lifts are pathetic for a guy who's done it for 4 years and your body would probably be much more massive if you'd have more advanced numbers
>>37459047
There is no magic routine, just eat, lift sleep, if you want to go really invest yourself get fatter and then cut, you will have that body in 2 years (assuming your lifts are progressing well, unlike OP's who doesn't lift that much)
>>37459077
You should work on your chest and traps before you really cut, you won't have any mass there
>>37459882
I did'nt train legs for a long time because I used to rock climb and wanted to keep my bodyweight down but after a while I decided to let go of that idea.
I just don't gain strength easily, weight comes on but my numbers just don't go up at the same pace. The good thing for me is I virtually lose no strength on my cuts. a 5% reduction at most.
>>37459862
NP anon, glad I could do my part. Appreciate the kind feedback, even one response that I helped absolves any number of negative/troll posts. Even though it gives said trolls and triphaters a playground to sling around their own fecal matter, I'll do another thread once I patch together the second year lifting timeline/compilation. I'm still here + using the instagram you guys suggested I set up pretty often in the meantime, @balcony_bro.
>>37457779
Why are you pulling that stupid numale face?

I feel like how the red army must have felt in late 1942, going to win but it's going to take fucking years and it's going to be a slog.
