How am I doing?

Bhowardreppin · 01-26-2010, 11:20 PM

Ive been at the game for two years now. Only really became pleased with my results just recently
So I'm going to try and get more pictures uploaded this week, but this is what I have for now as I was on my way out of the gym at the time. Wanted to know what you guys thought! How am I doing?

My stats now: 18 years 5'11 176 pounds. Last caliper test said I'm at 8%
I apologize for the poor lighting and size. I'm not great with computers and have no idea how to re size the photo.

Back looks good for only 2 years. A nice v-taper for sure. Front pic and some legs would be nice to see.

sorry bro, but its real hard to say much from the pic, other than your undies are very red and you need to pull your shorts up....

good foundation to start out with. your lean and cut from what i can tell. more pictures would be better, especially the lower half. keep up your training, and eat properly. your main focus should be to get a healthy bulk going, if that is your goal.

Thanks for the responses guys.

Mike, sorry about the shorts. I didn't really notice it =/ Ill try to avoid that in the next pics. I'm working on getting good front and leg shots in, but it's a little difficult when your friends think bodybuilding is no good.

One question for you guys, how do you get over the mental hump of putting on fat...that is if that even bothers you I'm saying. Ive been lean gaining for at least a year now and can't seem to get my head wrapped around gaining an faster at the cost of fat gaining.

gaining a bit of fat while bulking is natural and something you'll have to except. when an excess intake of calories occurs the more fat your body will store. this is why people do "bulk cycles", then "cut" down to their desired physique.

Oh i'm aware. Ive been reading on here for quite some time now. I appreciate the input though man, i'm just saying like..You ever have trouble accepting it? I worked hard to put off all that fat and now I want to put it on again. We all sound crazy don't we?

**HawaiianPride.** · 02-01-2010, 07:17 PM

i'll have trouble accepting it the day i gain more fat then i do muscle

Bhowardreppin · 02-01-2010, 07:25 PM

Fair enough! So I have a question, any idea how I can downsize some photos? If I even attempt to post them they end up blowing up to the size of my computer screen and I don't want to unleash that on this thread again haha.

what provider do you use to upload them. personally i use photobucket. it enables me to upload whatever photo i want onto photobucket in any size format i'd like.

I was using imageshack..Ill try photo bucket. Hopefully it's simple to do. Appreciate it dude

np just set up an account then directly under the link that says "upload images and videos" click on more options and it will allow you to upload it in any size you prefer. once that's finished copy and paste the IMG code onto here.
