New pics

I've been training hard, and dieting. Lost 12lbs so far, and I started tanning. I think my legs are somewhat underdeveloped, any other glaring weaknesses? I plan on doing a show next year, so I am looking for pointers on where I need to focus my efforts.

[Mighty Joe]

Bro,

Your legs are a bit underdeveloped in comparison to your upper body.
But overall you have a very powerful looking physique!
Nice work Brutha!

Only weakness I see is.......Gotta get a better tan! LOL

Nah, you are thick as hell. Plenty of time to keep bulking, then cut for showtime. May want to work on the teardrop a little more, but you really look impressive. Nice work!

[Padawan]

Teardrop?

Thanks for the comments guys.

Get squating, try high reps if you haven't done them, do ten reps and when you think you are all done, do ten more...believe me it can be done...just think that if you do ten more someone will walking into that door and give you 1,000,000.00 dollars, another thing i do, i only count in threes, this way no matter how many reps i have done, it's only 3 to go...other then that looking solid in the upperbody, big and thick, focuse on the legs and you'll kick some ass at your show...good luck...XXL

You look alot leaner than in your avatar good for you you seem to be headed in the right direction. You still look thick!!

[Padawan]

Thanks Ted. I am about 8lbs lighter now, than in the avatar pic. The wonders of clen

I wanted to cut my bodyfat down below the 20% it was, so that I could get a more accurate picture or how I was developing. Just a few more pounds, and I might even get to see my abs.

[Padawan]

For comparison, here is me about two weeks ago. Love handles are going away finally. The tan, even though it is weak, still helps, too

[Little Jonah]

yea man yoiur legs look fine to me just bring out your abs a little more and you will all set lookin great!

[BullDogg20]

dude you look great! i wouldnt do a thing other then get lean so u can make a good comparison on lacking body parts easier when u are lean to do that!!

[The French Curler]

Great job! You've lost some fat and I can tell!! You are on your way!

[sav22]

[Rocket]

[Havesome77]

Lookin good bro!!! What exercises are you doing to hit the love handles? Have a good one...

[Tystick]

You are a large man! I can't believe you teach a computer class, thats classic. Keep up the good work, you obviously know what your doing! Delt, trap, upper chest area, look good.

It's hard to say if you have any weakness... I honestly don’t think you do. You're kind of where I was early March. By the end of April I had dropped a bunch of weight (I posted the before and after pics a while back) and I looked completely different.

I was getting ready for a show and the friend that was helping me get ready started out by saying that my back and chest weren't thick enough. I know that I didn't gain any considerable size in those six weeks but buy the end of it he was saying that I had a thick back and chest.

Once you've dropped another 15 pounds your physique will have a completely different symmetry. I think if you can keep your size you'll end up with a really decent overall shape.

btw Mike_XXL I think your new avatar is an improvement.

Thanks for the comments guys. As for how I started to lose the huge ass love handles. Clen, clean diet, and my gym's air conditioning was broken for a couple of weeks, so my workouts were like being in a sauna. I also cut the rest time between sets, so my training feels a little more like cardio. Working so far. I am going to stop trying to lean out and just go for mass this fall and winter, maybe hit a cycle or two if I can. I think I am ready for it.

you work out at a powerhouse by chance?

[Padawan]

No, I work out at a crappy "family fitness" type gym. Only one in town, unfortunately.

I always thought it was just the Powerhouse in w.p.b that was hot as hell...
