Post Your Pics Thread?

There I smiled today lol. One of the few times anyway~

You should smile more often, really!

But it's just advice, don't get all butthurt you don't have to take the advice. You can do WHATEVER THE *** YOU WANT TO DO!

lmao Just not really much to smile about anyway :P

But thank you *^^*

or you can buy whatever the *** you wanna buy.

I'm pretty sure that black tanktop has become part of his torso now through some kind of natural fusion process.

Hair use to be longer but got tired of it so I had it cut

He means business o.o

Castlevania - Order of Ecclesia

Is that a sandwich using bell peppers instead of bread?

It's Vietnamese. It's some dessert (a delicious one at that).

Here's my "one year" update. It's in quotations because 1 year ago is when I told myself "Whether I get my desired results or not, I'm posting an update in a year", Though my workouts have only been consistent since Novemberish (possibly even January since while I did go half of Oct and all of November, didn't go for half of December because school gym was closed for winter break along w/ the school)

Not where I want to be quite yet, but much closer than 1 year ago. Progress can only go forward form here!

Damn son... you straight doin' work...

Good job tiger! Makes me want to get back into the gym

I think it's obvious you've worked hard and come a long way, Tiger. You look healthy, strong, and put-together. If you go too much further you'll have bulging beef muscles and veins popping out in your neck and forearms and that stuff looks just scary! I think you look good as-is. /nod.

Thanks. Provided you eat right, you'll get results much faster than I did. This was with guzzling 2 bags of candy down every other day minimum.

xD thanks, but I have no worries about getting there. You need like 3k calories a day for that, lol I'm lucky to get half. I'm on an extreme budget.

I never plan to get like a body builder for competition type physique, but something more like

and that'd be max. Probably a little smaller than that.

Edit: Stop the video before 2:56 if you don't want to see him in batman underwear

I'm a little curious, I know a guy who's probably 270+ and he said he's starting to weight train. Will he just be a bulky muscular guy or will he be able to get skinny+muscular like the twin guys.

Yes, but it'll take a lot more cardio based workouts to get his fat burned off (as well as proper nutrition).

Burning fat and putting on muscle are 2 independent, separate processes, which have nothing to do with one another. So anyone who says you can't burn fat while putting on muscle at the same time doesn't know what they're talking about.

Depending on his height though, 270 is pretty big, he'd have to do a good deal on his cardio.

before and after quitting ffxi?

I still play XI, just not as much (mainly due to school though, I'm still in doors just as much and have the same 0ness of a social life)

Thanks, I'll pass that info onto him, I don't know if he really has a game plan other than just going to the YMCA after work for an hour or two.

Yea, it's always good to go in with a game plan, knowing what you want as goals, etc.

I spent the first 4 months (on and off) doing random ***and not only did I not see (m)any results, I probably gained more weight.

When I structured my workout plan (Which was Januaryish) that's when I started seeing results. So even though it's my "1 year comparison", it's more like 6-8 months, in actuality.

To show you an example of what I mean, here's me in October.

Well you were unhappy with something(I assume?) and you changed it, nothing wrong with that. More people should do it. What does your general work out day consist of?

Well, see, the reason I'm so ashamed of that pic is because it's 4 months after I told myself I'd make improvements and made that 1 year pledge.

So that was definitely a low point in my year of "progress". It's not the worst shape of my life, but just during the conditions I let myself get there, bleh.

General workout has 2 "warm up" sets. I only call them warm up sets because I do squats and bench press with lower weight to warm those muscles up, but everything else during the "warm up" are actual workouts and not the warm up.

Warm up setand that concludes the warm up.

Workout
And that's about what I generally do in the gym.

On non gym days, I do running/jogging at home and crunches. Then I bike a lot, but that's for transportation. (In the summer, 30-40 miles/week is standard. During school time, where I'm on campus 4-5 days a week, 70-80 miles/week)

Before you ask what a dragon flag is

Not bad, I think I should get back in the gym. I guess him and I could be workout buds, I enjoy having a partner while working out for the extra motivation anyhow.

I'd have to work up to your current program, but I think I could get to it!

Been years since I've been in a gym D:

Well, the weights are just my personal level, really. You could just adjust it to weights you could do. The routine itself, provided you're using weight you can handle shouldn't take more than a couple of weeks to adjust into (if you can't do weight pull ups, do regular. If you can't do regular, use the assisted pull up machine, etc.)


The only thing on the list you'd really have to work your way up to are the dragon flags, which you could replace with crunches until your core is strong enough.
