Pics.. lifting for 6 years.

**IBdmfkr** · 08-08-2005, 11:23 PM

24yr old, 195lbs. Lifting since 17, weighed 140. Gained approx. 8-10lbs/year.

Here are pics from 2003/175lbs.. Next are pics from 2005/195lbs. I'll try and find some from 2000, you'll get a good laugh. Currently 198.

**IBdmfkr** · 08-08-2005, 11:26 PM

2005/195lbs (want critique, what is lagging what needs work etc.. would possibly like to do my first show in 2-3 years).

**deuce-is-loose** · 08-08-2005, 11:28 PM

looks good bro, what have you taken ?

**collar** · 08-08-2005, 11:35 PM

looking good
ur legs have improved from the first pics
arms came up chest looks great stomach is fine
i do think ur back needs more work

***Narkissos*** · 08-08-2005, 11:36 PM

Looking pretty proportional...IMO at least.

Legsmade significant improvements.

If i had to nitpick, i'd say your lower-chest and arms are a little behind

**IBdmfkr** · 08-08-2005, 11:38 PM

deuce: hell of a stereotype!

Other than 4000+ calories/day for the last year and a half, 4-6day/wk training routine, and 110% dedication. I have experimented with creatine and other vitamens. Thanks for asking.

collar: yes legs were a bitch, but I trained them twice a week for 6 months. Monday's quads, thurs: hams. They are finally getting to where I don't look too top heavy. Agree my back is flat, needs thickness. thanks.

nark: Yea, my chest is genetically pretty high, sucks. Bi's have always lacked peak as well.. good eye. appreciate the honesty.
keep em comin.

Oh yea, measurements.

From off the top of my head. *(where I'd like to be at end of year).
Weight: 195 *210
neck: 17 *17.5
chest: 45 *47
waist: 32 *32
arms: 16.5 *18
forarms: 12 *13
legs: 25 *30
calves: 15 *16

***Narkissos*** · 08-08-2005, 11:49 PM

you look leanest in the last pic...were all the pics in the second post taken at the same time?

Any calf shots bro?

**IBdmfkr** · 08-08-2005, 11:55 PM

last one is from two months after the front shot next to it, was around 192 compared to 195 in bloated pic. Not as much water retention. I am 198 now and more defined. Get some pics up in a few weeks when I reach 200. Here's a couple more leg shots, calf pic not the best.

**jesse_james** · 08-09-2005, 08:25 AM

Looking good mate!

**ttuprincess** · 08-09-2005, 08:27 AM

i agree that your legs look great!

**Monkeytown** · 08-09-2005, 10:40 AM

Only question I have is why do you have tats in 2003 pics and none in 2005 pics?

**IBdmfkr** · 08-09-2005, 10:57 AM

I erased them on the 05 pics but not the 03, look closer on the 05 back shots and you can see the smudges.. it was a pain in the ass so I just decided not to do it to the other ones.

thanks jess and ttuprincess, is that you in your avatar? If so, lookin good.

I admire your dedication and your goals, but realistically a 5" jump in quad development by the end of the year is pretty farfetched, actually nearly impossible unless you get fat as hell. But you look great, keep up the good work!!

**INJECTION** · 08-09-2005, 01:57 PM

looking real solid man, keep it up

**dr.shred** · 08-09-2005, 04:27 PM

look great bro, keep up the hard work.

-SHRED

**dr.shred** · 08-09-2005, 04:27 PM

hit the rows and deads heavy and your back will come up.

**BodyMechanic** · 08-09-2005, 04:58 PM

Good work bro, the only spot i see a significant weakness, would be back.

**IBdmfkr** · 08-09-2005, 05:33 PM

stayinstacked: those are just my goals, and I will do whatever it takes to reach them. btw, I know I probably won't hit 30's on quads but hey all I can do is try. I'll repost in december and let you know how close I am.

Yea I hit deads EOW. killer lower back workout but it made my waist grow also. I'll repost some pics in a couple months to compare. Thanks for the comps.

**BeerBaron** · 08-09-2005, 06:08 PM

You got some meaty tri's but your bi's lack more than anything. Legs look really nice imo. Now im off to eat my birthday dinner of shrimp scallops and steak!

**IBdmfkr** · 08-09-2005, 10:51 PM

thanks and happy b-day beerbaron..
So It's confirmed, I'm doing back tomorrow!

maybe the next day after that too! haah j/k, I'm gonna bump it up a notch and try to bring it all together, thanks for criticism and comps.. much needed.

still lookin for old pics, I'll post them soon. was a skinny little fvcker

**chest6** · 08-09-2005, 11:14 PM

5 inches on the legs is a little much man..27 would be a good goal..might still be a little high

**IBdmfkr** · 08-09-2005, 11:21 PM

haha, no shit these are just MY goals, maybe I shouldn't have stated end of year, but i will meet and surpass these goals but it will take Time. But I am used to and understand that. But yes I know 5 inches in insane in 6 months.

**sanjuro22** · 09-24-2005, 08:20 AM

looking really good - very encouraging to see improvements like that.

Heres a quick update... Getting towards my goals.

Chest: 45.25
Waist: 32.5
Arms: 17.25
Forearms: 12.5
Legs: 25.25

Legs have made much slower progress than I hoped.. oh well, I'm still shooting for atleast 26 by the end of this year.

**bigtwin** · 09-24-2005, 11:07 AM

Looks great, good cuts.

**MASTERDBOL** · 09-24-2005, 11:14 AM

look great bro. tri's and calfs look very good. bust out some heavy dead's and bent over rows, and you'll have all areas covered very well. keep it up man!!!

**IBdmfkr** · 09-24-2005, 11:21 AM

Appreciate the responses, I'll post up some pics at the end of the year.. I'll put all three side by side, I hope to see as big of a difference between these new ones as the old ones... At this rate, I will be a freak by the time I'm 30. Can't wait

Btw: masterdbol, That is a fukin impressive arm. Where's the rest of you?

**Pinnacle** · 09-24-2005, 11:26 AM

**G-13** · 09-24-2005, 12:53 PM

You look great bro!. Hard work pays off! The only thing i think is lagging is your forearms.

**nyny2916** · 09-24-2005, 03:50 PM

great job bro, definitely motivation for me

That's good to know.. Thanks. Still searching for pictures of me at 17yrs old. HAHAHA! 135lbs. I gained approx. 10-12lbs naturally for 3-4 years and then made a mistake by starting too early. Can't go back now, nor do I regret it. I've just learned since then that with proper diet I could have achieved my desired results without the use of AAS. Atleast until a certain point. Keep that in mind.

**TCEL300** · 09-24-2005, 11:17 PM

lookn good bro

**GREENMACHINE** · 09-25-2005, 05:03 AM

Huge improvement on your legs. Nice improvement between both sets of pics overall. Y

**Prime** · 09-25-2005, 09:14 AM

Nice to see another person doing it naturally

Not quite, but Thanks. Props to you for your accomplishments though.

Btw, I get depressed everytime I come on this thread. I see my pics and then I see my avatar.
