    Also great arms bro, whats your arm size at right now? and the back as always, insane, a family of 5 could eat on that thing . Keep up the good work!
    Just goes to show ya it's not always the "weight", but form, technique, style, and GENETICS.....I know quite a few stick guys (look who's talking) who bench 350 and you'd swear the bar would be trouble.....

    I no my form is good. i dont cheat on my form at all. I just never got blessed with genetics like that


    haha yeah i bench 315 the other day and it was pretty amazing, i swear i dont look like the type of kid who could get 200 off his chest People were in shock when they saw this 170 pound kid whos like 5'7 lifting 315 off his chest haha

    Haha thanks Kbiz..yea man its weird...lately bicep training has gone to shit...

    hell even when i was natural i could easily do a clean 155-165lb barbell curl, and straight bar too..

    and in the middle of this cycle i hit 155lbx8 easy..and now lifting the 125lb curl feels so dam heavy, not sure whats going on, but hey theyre getting bigger i just focus on nutrition and it works out

    Not sure if i stated this earlier but its clear now that i value var much more than winstrol ..yea winny has better fatloss for me but var has given me WAY more strength gains than winny, and i probably got 75% of the fatloss i got from winny too...vascularity is about the same between the two...

    Nice workout today bro

    BB curls against the bench, prob by far one of my favorite bicep exercise's. The pump and burn from that is the greatest.

    This thread has gone long enough without my comments!

    1.) Its about damn time those lats started flaring out on the front double, nice job!

    2.) Go to the doc and get that damn hip looked at! That thing has been bothering you for like a year and a half.

    I trained with this SOB for almost 4 years...and let me tell you he's never gonna win any powerlifting comps...but he will get disgustingly massive! And I have seen the pics when he was like 130...there quite funny. Even better are the pics when he was 230..lol.

    of course I am still around...i was just really busy for a while

    In looking at those new leg pics it looks like you have added some nice new muscle, I think you need to start thinking about more ham focus so they match the quads, plus with that back...if you get the same freakiness to the hams you will be untouchable from the back. Calves dont count...we both know that..lol. Represent team dominate...we need to get a win on the board!

    Thanks again Dude!!! i agree man, my ham training including weights have all hit personal bests this cycle and they have gone up but from the side they arent impressive at all, i think they have the separation when i diet down but theres no "hanging look" of any kind from the side
    Im not quite sure really which would add more mass, stiff leg deadlifts or hamstring curls, regardless i am doing them both..hopefully itll just be a matter of time when they catch up; lately ive been hitting them with very high intensity and low rest, perhaps i need to increase my sets....

    I'd drop the reps on the leg curl and seated leg curl to 6-10..it seems hams respond better to lower reps compared to quads. Also you might want to start adding more lunges or walking lunges and leg press with feet super high on the platform...this was my new favortite ham exercise til the knee injury...it felt like it hit more of the meat of the ham.

    I will give those a shot...hopefully tomorrow everything will go well...

    for seated hamstring curl i go as heavy as possible while maintaining form--usually 160-180lbx10 reps...i could probly go 200lb and get 6-8 tho..

    This whole cycle ive basically been doin lat pulldowns--i rarely ever do weighted pullups..at my weight currently its hard enough to get great form on pullups with no weight added...

    Haha im sure i can still do them, probably get 8-10 tho...either way pullups have never felt right to me, always makes my spine really tight after a set..and i tend to naturally rock even tho my form is good...
