>>37741491
lol
central nervous system gains at your finest /fit/ aka beginner gains.
>>37741554
Yeah obv I am a beginner, do you think these stats are ok for 4month from total dyel?
>>37741491
We have the same lifts/sameish height/weight but im more otter. We're both gonna make it my dude keep it up
>>37741491
op here again, how long did it take you guys from my level to 1/2/3/4?
>>37741659
you should have progressed much more than you have, looking at your pictures. how often are you working out? what does you diet look like?
>>37742208
also do you do any isolation? if not then you need to
>>37742208
I do PPLxPPLx
Diet wise I eat at a 300cal surplus with about 200g of Protein a day
>>37742376
Do a bigger surplus. At least 500 Cal. Protein intake is fine.
>>37742376
that seems good atleast, just keep it up and you'll get better. Your lifts look pretty good for just 4 months to be honest.
>>37741491
>>37742128
Obsessing over the weight you have on the bar is an easy street to injury. You've only been at it 4 months, there's no rush. You'll get there.
>>37742384
Won't that just result in more fat gain? Or can I really add more muscle with 500 surplus than with 300
>>37742388
Is PPLxPPLx a good program for me? It feels good but I don't know if something else would be better?
Two months of military style self training,good results?
>>37742421
If you got time to work out 6 times a week then it's great in my opinion. As for now a fullbody workout 3 times a week would work too, or read into starting strength.
I'm doing a PPLxPPL program right now for about a year and a half, started it after about 2 years of lifting, still works, just make sure you've got progressing on your lifts and get the form down NOW, before you have to unlearn stupid shit.
1.5 years
135 to 160
slow progress because i was poor and my diet was shit.
>>37742491
>shoulders
>>37742552
what's wrong with my shoulders?
>>37742491
Stats?
>>37742644
have you ever worked them?
>>37742442
What do you do?
>>37742675
I usually go for 180 sit ups at least every other day,with five minutes of planking
With 10 diamond push ups,followed by 20 normal,then 10 wide
And 6 days a week i run 1.7 miles in the morning and bike 3 miles
>>37742667
not often. I think i only do one or two exercises that focuses on them.
>>37742658
my stats aren't impressive.
bp: 185x5
sq: 225x5
dl: 245x5
ohp: 115x5
>>37742696
no back, bicep, or shoulders? you should probably get a membership to a gym
>>37742722
Im pretty homebound for the most part,but i mainly focus on 20 pull ups for shoulders
>>37742711
no offense but your shoulders belong on a skelly. you should do more of them. good progress otherwise though
>>37742741
none taken. i will.
>>37742738
>thinking pull-ups do shoulders
lol that's upper back and some bicep. chin-ups would be biceps and lats. shoulders would be handstand pushups.
>>37742759
Ive gotta say,thank you for the advice!
Ive mostly just been preparing for bootcamp style exercise more then aesthetic,but i always welcome trying for it
Started lifting in mid 2015. Turns out my disgusted flared rib cage actually makes my obliques looks huge, go figure. Also, do i have an oddly shaped torso? It looks like my upper chest area has a whole lot of real estate
Still a long way to go.
Any suggestions?
>>37743409
I only just got a gym membership this year in May. Before then it was all body weight at home.
>>37743409
bretty good. cut
haven't posted in a month or so so here we go:
little over 6 month progress. 6'4" 245->193, am i gonna make it
>>37742967
keep it up man good progress so far. i'd be proud to take my shirt off if i were you, but as always there's more to do
Alrigt, so I really need/ want to cut. Obviously I HAVE to do cardio because I end up going over my deficit every day with my diet (~1750 kcals). I just have not had the time to run or shit after my lifts cuz I've been exerting my self to the point where I am just not able to do cardio. I really want to lose ~10 lbs of fat.
Supps are subjective to me as I feel like a lot are just placebo and merely supportive.
Guys, what do?
tl;dr cutting is hard m'kay, help me guys
5'10
198lbs
>>37743671
Fuck.
Wrong pic, but that one is the most recent
>>37743622
Thanks man, I really appreciate it
>>37743409
Here's my back
Jan 25th & march 25th
182 cm 94kg down to 92kg
6'1
Before was 165lb now 183lb
5 months in gym hopes are up!!
>>37741491
What were you starting lifts?
>>37743683
damn. mirin' traps
About 3 months progression here 5'9 and 160 lbs
6'2"
225lbs in Jan16
195lbs in Jun16 (current)
Www....will I make it??
>>37741491
is this some kind of a joke? You look _exactly_ the same in both pics. Have you been eating at a deficit this whole time or something?
>>37744657
Looks like you might have scoliosis
By normie standard, your body right now is great. Give it a couple of years, there's no doubt you'll make it
1 year
>>37744668
Don't be a fucking asshole are you blind.
Better quad development, better shoulder development, lats look a bit more flared, but that might be the angle, but quads/shoulders make it obvious
>>37744657
Damb
>>37744657
Good progress for 6 months m8 keep it up
>>37741491
95kg to 75kg, 184cm, one year. Have waaay too many cheat days... :(
>>37741491
nice flat feet
>>37744657
Stats and lifts?
>>37742442
Thats actually pretty good man. Also i see that Pectus excavatum, i have the same thing.
>>37746508
1pl8 OHP
205lb bench
2pl8 squat
385lb DL
>>37745910
well, you've obviously become queer so looks like you've made it man, congrats.
>>37746536
Mirin.
Also that squat and Deadlift ratio
I have the same thing too :/
>>37744119
great progress, since you are still so early on in your training, I don't recommend you do any more cutting, just maintain and keep progressing on your lifts
2 years progress
6' 118 ->190 lbs max and now 167 cut (after pic)
>>37746536
please work on your legs, you obviously have a very serious form problem with your squat, 2pl8 squat and 205lb bench is hilarious
>>37746572
His deadlift is 385
Is Deadlift not working legs?
Also I have the same problem as him. Do I just keep squatting until it fixes itself? I'm doing mobility work and stretches to fix it
Also, would squatting everyday be a good idea to catch up on legs?
>>37746564
routine and bulk diet?
>>37746564
>after cut
but where is the bulk
>>37746572
bby I don't have access to a squat rack. I've literally squatted twice in my life. Buying a legit gym membership this month.
>>37746564
>Current year
>Not having a 5 pack
>>37746608
t. fat powerlifter
>>37746595
depends on your form, but if your deadlifts are putting a serious strain on your hams then you are dropping your hips too low. The deadlift is primarily an upper back pulling exercise not a from-the-ground-squat.
It depends on your routine, if you are doing 3 sessions a week, you should be squatting every session as the muscles involved in the squat recover faster than those involved in any other major compound lift. If you are squatting <290 lbs it should be fairly easy to put on 5 lbs each session.
>>37746613
godspeed on getting those africa tier calves fixed as soon as possible.
>>37746596
I contribute my successful bulk largely to the fact that I was able to get 5 placentas throughout the time and consumed small quantities over a large period of time
>>37746608
Probs around 185 in pic related
>>37746638
They don't look bad to me desu senpai, probably the angle
>>37746613
What size foot you have?
I'm 6'1, 306 pounds
If i eat 1500 calories a day and burn 800 calories a day
How many pounds would i lose a week/month?
>>37746651
Literally, fuck off.
>REEDTHEFUCKINGSTICKIE
>>37746649
Size 12
>>37746638
Funny I always get compliments on my calves. They do look small in this pic tho
>>37746651
Find a TDEE calc, fill it out, cut 20% off maintenance. You sound like a fat fuck though so I would reccomend just cutting out fast food, sugar, breads/pasta, and baked goods. That'll be 1000% better than what you're eating now (and sustainable)
There's 5 months between the pics that I've posted, how am I doing? I honestly expected better progress
>>37746699
stats?
>>37748294
Hope to be ex fatty too, over how long?
>>37746506
REEEE how do I get rid of these?
>>37744254
started at 40kg bench, 50 squat, 60 dl and only the bar on ohp
>>37745898
Why do you say he might have scoliosis ?
>>37748853
thats fucking great mate at least its progress
>>37741491
Stop lying idiot.
I have the same stats but WAY more muscle than you.
You didn't make any progress aesthetic wise.
>>37742967
your chest and arms are literally perfect, at least from that picture. legs are a good size.
just get a bigger back and you've made it to aesthetic heaven: natty edition
I started lifting in late September
BP: 160x5 but im back at 145 to fix wrists
Squats: 225x5
DL: I almost never deadlift so 135
OHP: 95
How am i doing? My diet is not ideal and im trying to cut right now.
>>37748853
You made progress but it's slow. Stricter nutrition and try lifting.
>>37751666
The difference in weight between the pics is about 3 stone.
I'm trying to only eat 2 meals per day and on average I'm consuming about 1200 cals/day
>>37753007
That's good progress just does t look like it. Try eating 15-20% below maintenance and lifting.
>>37751150
>Trying to cut
Don't make that mistake. I was cutting while looking skinny af too. Do yourself a favour and bulk for at least half a year. It will be good for you. Trust me.
>>37748898
See >>37746536
>>37753426
This desu senpai
1 year progress
6'2 put on 35 pounds sitting at 205 rn
>>37750724
Not him but his hips and shoulders are uneven. A quick shot of his rounded back would be enough for a diagnosis one way or another
>>37741491
How does this happen?
Ive been lifting 6 months and my lifts are dogshit compared to op, but I would say I look better than him.
Stats: 5'9, 66kg
>>37750724
>>37755366
For some reason my posture is bad when taking photos, with both arms down the curvature is not there
>>37755431
youre 5'9", he is most likely taller. Shorter people look better with less muscle than taller people
>>37743612
mirin that vascularity senpai. ur gunna make it
>>37755502
OP said he's 182cm which is ~5'10 as per google (this may be wrong I dont know)
>>37755525
in the unlikely event that this isnt bait, i just want to point out that the .97 is not inches. The .97 is referring to the fraction of a foot.
Because .97*12 = 11.64, the OP's height is actually 5ft 11.64inches
>>37744657
