Hey everybody! Just checking in to say hi to all my old friends, and welcome to newer members.

I've been keeping busy since moving down to FL ... we're building a house here and closing in roughly 60 days, so lots to do!

I've been doing great training/diet wise, in fact, better than I have in years. Currently at around 13% BF, 206lbs @ 5'10. Not quite ready to reveal the shirtless pics again yet (gotta drop back down to 10% first!), but a small shirted pic update just to give you an idea as to the size I've managed to put on over the last ~ year.

Hope you're all doing well!

[kelkel]

Glad all is well GB! Looking good.

Thx brother, good to see you still around too!!

Thx Joco. 191lbs roughly 10% in my avy, 206lbs roughly 13 MAYBE 12% in the pic. Avy from 2011 though, so not all that great over 4 years time. Natural though, no gear, and turning 40 in a few months, so I can't complain.

[RaginCajun]

Who are you again?

Oh yeah, I remember, the guy who pees sitting down!

Glad to hear everything is going well for you and family!

Looking thick man, thicker than ever!

[rollingthunder]

Thx Tar, I appreciate it! The house is awesome, I'll post up some pics when it's finished. I have tons already, but might as well wait for the finished product.

Well, you've been busy impregnating people. No doubt it kept you busy for a couple minutes.

Thanks brother, I was hoping for that a couple years ago, lol. But yea, my disappearance probably didn't help my case much. Maybe next time ... if I can stick around for more than 2-4 weeks at a time.

Minutes!? Wow, thanks for giving me so much credit!!!

Post whores. lol

4? Like, FOUR!?!? No way!!! If I wrote that somewhere, it was a typo! God no, I have 2 boys now, and I think we're finished! I'd really love a girl but considering age and financial planning, it's probably not the best idea. Plus, there's no guarantee we'll even have a girl next, and I do NOT want another boy, lol. So, this old dog is going to lie down.

[GirlyGymRat]

I just threw out a number. LoL. A guy at work is having their 3rd boy. My gf had 3 boys. 2 healthy babies is good. I am sure you are busy.

I saw your pic. U seemed to have maintained your size! Hard to do working and caring for a young family.

[ghettoboyd]

lol, gotcha. Thanks, I'm actually bigger than I've ever been, but I never had much size to begin with. Yep, not the easiest with the kids, moves, etc. plus 40 knocking at my door, but I'm doing my best! Hope all is well with you!

I am in the same boat brother. I just started carb cycling. It's miserable but it will be worth. A lot of extra weight is coming off fast

Thanks Nach! Can't say I remember the name, but looks like you've been busy around here. Keep up the good work! Looking solid in your avy as well, bro.

Good luck man, no more stressing over diet for this guy. I found when I relaxed with all the stuff I was so vocal about on this board (not that any of it doesn't 'work', mind you) and just went with the basics and stayed consistent, I made my best progress.

Currently, I'm hardly tracking macros/calories - but I eat pretty much the same every day, so adjustments are easy when needed, based on progress (or lack thereof). I don't feel deprived, I'm eating things I wouldn't have in the past although I definitely wouldn't consider what I'm doing textbook 'flexible dieting'. It's the new GB plan. Eat, train, sleep. Evaluate. Adjust. Repeat.

Another pic update. I started training in 2009, and got serious about it in 2011. The 'before' pic was taken literally days before I started working with with Nark. Even old men can make gains!

That's great, GB! Huge difference... I like the more full look - it's a lil of the best of both worlds(awesome separation -delts/traps/back look sick man) well done!! What would you say your bf is - 10-12(being tops)?!

Thanks bro. My body fat distribution is SO odd, it's hard to say. If you were measuring me only from the midsection up, I'd likely be around 11ish. Now add in my arse, hips, lower back (all still a fckin mess), and I'm easily bumped up to 15.

Started HRT about 2 years ago, but honestly i wouldn't cite that as having made a huge impact. I managed to get pretty fat over the last 2 years (217lbs, well in the high teens BF) and only recently started dieting back down. About 204 in the after pic.

I totally get you man... I'm lean(10ish) everywhere but my lower abs - I've had my abdominal wall cut thru 5+X adding the coma(my sides pop) but arse and legs are getting better - so I'm in the same boat :/ aint that a b!tch!
