Post Your Pics Thread?

Yay, I love when this thread gets bumped!

Posted some vids in the BG fitness thread, so figured why not

300 lbs + body weight


60 lbs + body weight

That's good pull-up form - I think it's silly when some guys just go down halfway before going up again, and count it as a rep.

Used to wear a backpack with a 20lb.-er inside doing pulls, but I think putting it on your feet like that is a much better idea.

Cool vid, taught me something :)

Gracias. Yea, I've been doing it for about a year now. And to think I started out with the 15 lb dumbbell, then moved down to the 10 after my first set cause 15 had me like "*** this" haha

Haha you totally owned the neck pad.

*** neckpads.

Lol, James was using it. (the guy recording the vid). Lol I always throw it down like that on purpose to piss him off. I call it the *** pad, lmao

i would make this smaller but i have no idea how. But yeah that's me!

Very rovery. Especially the first one

yeah i thought so too. :p

The first one made me laff. :c

beautiful

I already posted this in the Halloween thread, but might as well put it here.




My husband and I aren't going anywhere for Halloween this year, so I didn't want to spend a lot of time or money on a costume that I'd only be wearing for trick-or-treaters. So I mix-matched stuff I already had. Over-the-knee strappy black boots (those are my favorite boots <3), a deep purple skirt, black long-sleeved T-shirt turned inside-out (because it has writing across the chest when it's right-side-out, I don't have a plain black one), purple corset over the shirt. The hat was $4 at Walmart. xD

But anyways, after I put it all together and was starting to get excited, a couple of my neighbors told me that they never get kids trick-or-treating here. Bugger.

Are you the boy or the girl, Celeana? Celeana is a really pretty name, by the way!

obviously celeana is the dragon!

Well, since you are the boy, I ought to tell you that I like your tattoo. Do you have a closer-up picture of it?

Are you going to dress up your dogs for Halloween Liela?

That's really cool, Celeana!

I don't think we'll dress the dogs up this year, Cheyne. Much as they'd be adorable, they'd also be ticked. xD But next year if we are in a place that gets tons of kids, I might dress them up anyways. For the children!

finally me ;)

<3 Liela's costume!

@Sonia, props


After watching the squat vid, didn't really care for it, dropped it from 315 to 290 and went lower. Lol almost passed out today though was in there on 2.5hrs sleep and was my 2nd day in a row, but I returned that camera tonight, so if I wanted to do anything for the cam, it had to have been today.


Also, marvel at my patty cake skills

I haven't thought of a costume yet! D:
Here's last years'

In the Otakon picture: Shannon and Kinzo, (Umineko no Naku Koro ni) Finn, (duh) Slenderman, Shaggy (Scooby Doo), Chouji (Naruto), and Gamma Akutabi (Zombiepowder).

I have some awesome friends.

I AM KINZO.

Always wondered what the difference was with positions for dumbell presses.I personally do mine the same way you do,on an incline and I see most other guys do them the same way.There are a few that do them laying flat though,which I've never tried so not sure how it feels/the difference.How much you got on those? By the size of them they look to be 35-40lbs per hand?

Edit: didnt notice it was 6 weights per hand,so I'll say maybe 47.5-55 per hand?

The amount of the incline/decline changes which part of the upper arm gets what % of the workout. IIRC, an almost complete decline works the triceps, flat (like a straight bench press) works the chest and biceps and an incline works the back and neck (slightly).
It's been about 10 years since I lifted trying to build up so I may be way wrong about what it works (but I'm sure that working different areas is the reason behind it).

60 per hand, and positioning just changes the target spot a bit. I swap it up between flat and incline and hit both when I can.





Edit:
first time I've done this to a bandaid, lol

D: Bleed less! And hot pink blood, wtf lol. Some sparkly dumb vampire somewhere is going to think your blood tastes like candy with it being that color! :p
