GB - Current Pics

[gbrice75]

I may not have been around much lately (ok, I haven't been around much at ALL for the past couple years), but I haven't stopped hitting it hard. In fact, I'm the biggest I've ever been, and fairly lean. Mind you, I'm not a mass monster obviously ... never will be, never wanted to be. But for me - probably a 150lb frame - this is pretty decent.

5'10, 205lbs, 12ish % BF.

[gbrice75]

Thanks for the love, all. Those of you who remember me from way back might remember I struggled (still do) to put on quality muscle without a LOT of extra bodyfat (regardless of a tight/clean diet) due to years of prior bodily abuse. I'm still not where i want to be, but then again, are we ever? I am, however, finally at a point where I'm typically one of the better physiques in any gym I go into, and almost always the best physique in random public places. I have to be happy with that!!!

PS - just for shits and giggles, this was me in 2009, about 6 months after I got into the gym and lost roughly 80lbs. I was actually happy with this look simply because I wasn't fat!!

[RaginCajun]

Damn GB, nicely done!

I remember all of your threads and looks like you are achieving what you set out to do!

And all of that with 2 little ones!!!

I remember your pic of you jumping in a pool or off of a diving board, total transformation!!!

Well done sir, you should be very proud of yourself!

[gbrice75]

Thanks so much guys!! Wow RC, I totally know what picture you're referring to - from when i was in Mexico, 2010. lol. Funny part is I was 210ish in those pics, only 5lbs less here but body composition is completely different - or, at the very least, muscle is much more dense and 'mature' now. Still a long way to go before I achieve the look I REALLY have in mind (and I may not ever be able to, as I'm natural), but I'm not ready to give it up yet!

[Eric-xxx]

Beasty look! Cool.

Very inspiring buddy. We are about the same weight/frame size but your body comp is so much better. That's OK, like you I've been hard on my body over the years. I came here looking for an easier softer way but that's just foolish. Instead I have become more efficient with my workouts and especially my diet and all natural. Great to see such results, very motivational..

90% of the people today would have stopped right there and been happy as heck to of lost that much weight. (Which was a hell of an accomplishment!) But for you to have taken your body to another level, or two, says a lot about your character as a person. Congratulations brother!

Thank you brother. Trust me - if you ever come across any of my older threads, posts, etc. you will see my struggle. I feel like I've been through hell and back with this gatdamned bodybuilding, lol. I came close to giving up SO many times ... thought I'd never grow ... never have the look I desired. And to be honest, I still don't - but I've come to accept what I have to work with, and realized that I am never going to be a 250lb mass monster, but will work to be the best ME that I can. Still a work in progress, but I feel I have finally achieved somewhat of an appreciable look.

All this to say - keep up what you're doing. As long as you have a passion and desire, you can't fail.

Thanks a ton, Strong - means a lot. Yes, I was happy when I got there ... just to be under 200lbs was huge for me. Funny how now, I freak when I get down to around 200lbs, lol.

Have not been on the board much lately...however just happened to see this thread and wanted to say you look fantastic...Major accomplishments for someone who used to be major overweight and to do it without gear is really phenomenal...hats off to you!
