great work bro... shoulders and back look good.. in th 2 years how many cycles have you done? u look more like 215 to me. a cutting cycle would make look even more amazing....
great progress!! keep at it

Pretty good job on the back and shoulders. It looks like you need to hit your chest pretty hard with barbell bench, plain and simple. Your chest and arms need the most growth of all. When you are flexing in that position, your pecs are almost non-existent. But you will be there with time. You should aim for 19" bi's. I'm only 5'5", 180lbs, and I have 18" bi's. But I think my arms are my genetic gift. :DQuote:

I believe a good year for muscle gain is about 20-25 lbs with steroids, anything more then that is fat acculation. We all want to be heavier but give it a couple more years for that 230 lbs... but in the meantime you might want to work down some fat and settle for being pretty at 215# as compared to a "starting to get fat" 230#.Quote:

i know what you mean.. but right now, my main interest is strength and size, im not aiming for the pretty boy look for now. i would like to be a big MF, more like 250-260 same BF% before attempting a cutting diet. i dont think im in an "ugly situation" yet... i know that if only i could have the drive to eat clean i would burn fat like its butter... cause right now im stuffing myself with almost everything!!! :p LOLQuote:

i think you have made alot of progress, you look almost twice as wide as before. I would think abou tcutting for a bit tho as you would look pretty good if you dropped the weight a bit.
do you have "Hardcore" CARVED into your stomach?? Care to share that story??
im one of those ****ed up dude who like pain like its sex!!! :dg: LOLQuote:

nice gains bro. just cut up some of that fat and you'll be ready for the beach this summer.
bdtr, TheJuicer, wired-up and Prime thank you all very much, greatly appreciated :)
as for the high BF, i believe that the more muscular you get, the easier it is to get cut. if i drop the daily 6000kcal diet, im sure i can lost a few digit on the BF% scale. ;)
a quick update on my strength achievement these days:
deadlifts: 495lbs x4
squat: 405 x6
bench: 315 x4
i havent max since mid cycle so i dont kno my current #
i still dont know if i should hit the sauce this summer or take a complete year clean just to see how far i can go... decision, decision... :)
