I'm loving the 5x5 and trying to do more weight each week/workout, etc.

I'm trying to reach that leaner 225-235 range too. Still at mid 230's now, but with more BF than the goal is. I KNOW I've added 12-15 lbs of muscle in the last year while dropping 20+ lbs of fat......just gotta keep rolling the same way.

I'm going to go do a quick 5x5 style workout with some benching, squatting and some bent rows.

I'm going to lean down a little bit over the next month... Just to kickstart my gains for the new year. It's operation Lean265lbs by June baby.

Yeah, a 45 and a 38. Dude, I was a bone. I could run around talking about being cut because I had a mean set of abs and all, but I don't call a skinny kid at 170 cut.

Dude, I'm the guy in the back with the Tennessee shirt on and hat. I've never grown just a moustache in my life. See, same kid:

I think you know this though and are ****ing with me. ****er.

I own a personal training business. I have a studio, I do lectures, seminars, etc. I just came in from setting up a deal to do a few videos and I'm stoked.

He owns a packing factory that imports gourmet fudge from France.
Alot of guys here work for him.
Apparently from what I have heard is that from packing all that fudge all day long is how they got those big arms.

[EDIT]

Damnit, you answered too fast for me Boyd

HAHA. Look at that cocky smirk on that 170lb frame. Good thing you finally grew into your ego.

LOL - I was like a chiuahaha. Thought I was a Rott.

It's hard not to have an ego when you're as strong as I am...

Look great bro. Nice progress. Key to everyone having results, is learning your own body. Advice and knowledge is great, but you must learn and get to know how your body acts. It's key to getting to your goal. Plain and simple.

Great photos, and nice work.

Chris A · #37 (**permalink**) 12-16-2007, 10:20 PM

dude i would hardly say you were a skinny toothpick in your old pics. U looked bigger than 170 to me. I guess maybe in bodybuilding terms you were "skinny".

Thanks dude. I'm glad I was able to come up with older pics because I didn't take a ton of pics then.

Nah dude, I am definitely a toothpick in those pics. I'm guessing 15" arms tops. I've probably put about 8" on my upper leg since then as well. I had to break out my military med records to see how much I weighed in that time frame, and it was always between 165-170. Now, much of that was by choice due to the fact that I was an avid runner. I loved lifting, but I wanted that thin, ambercrombie type look.

But you have a good eye - I had been as heavy as 210 or so in the past (probably 7 years before that pic) in high school football. I actually had some of a base from those years, but I was, by no means, a monster. LOL - I had great calves (totally genetic). Fortunately, I've always been exceptionally strong for my size.
