Conditioning looks very good for 16 weeks out. Unfortunately trying to "bring up" a bodypart in 4 months while contest dieting doesnt usually work. You pretty much go in with what you have at this point.
Looking great bro, obliques and serratus looking very well defined. You should do well!
good overall package mate
what are your stats at now bro?
awesome job.
as Fireguy stated.... bringing anything up at this time is a moot point.
now if you were more advanced and on a boat load of GH, slin, gear, and have years of comps behind ya. then thats a diff story.
but looking very solid man. especially being natty
Hoping traps can come up just a little. Train the shit out of em, but they dont really grow.
Forgot a Side Tri Pose while posing so here it is.

good job bro chest looks full and solid and in the last shot your delt is full of all kinds of crazy shiat!
good symmetry, good luck on your contest!
you look great man.. good luck, im sure you will do great.
Good Luck man
yeah nice work goodluck
Wow tons of potential!
very good!! I commend you for being natural and deciding to compete. The biggest points I see are legs, traps, and arms. Like Fireguy stated, your not going to really bring anything up at this point since your contest prepping and dieting, but one thing you can do is make those muscle pop out more by training to stretch the fascia. Which is what you'll need to do with the arms. If we can't make a bodypart grow, then what we need to do is make an illusion that bodypart grew!!! Try researching FST-7, basically everything is trained for volumization and squeeze and pump. Go that route and for God Sakes dont carb deplete, not with your physique and where your at now
great job son.
excellent work, will be following your progress
VERY solid work - quads/legs look great already. when you depleat down you should look pretty damn great overall!
my only real "critique" is bigger traps and MAYBE a bit wider middle/outer delt.
the only weak point REALLY is traps that i can see. everything looks pretty well balanced and even, nothing seems over done/stands out too much.
hey man can you tell me your cardio routine? duration. is AM and PWO?
look good btw. best of luck with the comp:)
x2 You are not huge but your symmetry is really good.Quote:

Still leaning out nicely.Quote:

Got any tips for traps? I hit em and they just dont grow. I hit high reps, low reps, heavy weight light weight and nothing.
Legs are coming along been blasting them. Starting to get some vascularity in them. I just hold most my weight in my legs.
And arms are just hard to fill out on a 6'1 guy. They were close to 18s, not sure what they are now. Then my Tris are more dominate than my Bis as well, but they're starting to look good since cutting.
Thanks for the advice man. Appreciate it.
I was doing cardio PWO, but I was just getting home to late. I work 11-7 so I wouldnt get home til almost 10. And I have a 5 month old son and was getting to see him much which sucked.Quote:

Right now im hitting 20 mins on workout days and between 20-30 mins non lifting days.
I use an elliptical called Cybex. Its pretty beastly. I go LISS I guess. I just do 10 incline 45 resistance and it gets the job done
At 16 wks out I dont think you need cardio everyday, you look within 15 lbs of contest weight now. I would do the cardio 3x/wk and let the diet bring me in, nothing you cannot adjust 4-6 wks out. The biggest problem with natty competitors(actually even ones who use) is they lose too much muscle and come in flat as shit. Remember to make time for your son, no local contest is worth time away from your family. I've done 10 of them and almost lost mine, trust meQuote:
