Solid wheels...but in my opinion, your legs are so much bigger than your torso, but you get the credit for training your legs very hard...I can't train my legs that well.

Do you have problems finding a pair of jeans to wear? My thighs are not big but after started squatting I couldn't wear jeans anymore and I had to turn to khaki pants.

LOL, I remember this ad. I remember watching it a couple of times on TV while watching cartoons on TV1 at 7pm on Saturdays. I don't know why they have to use hardcore BBers to model their insecticide ads, and not a celebrity like a singer/actor.

You sure it's gynecomastia? Coz gynecomastia will look like a real boob which hangs or puffy nipples. I think it's a congenital defect of the pectoralis major muscle since it looks solid and arising from the muscle.

Anyway, has anyone here experienced pain and the small joints on the fingers, wrist and knee? There was tenderness and reddnening of the 4th proximal interphalangeal joint of my left hand 2 days ago, which subsided 1 day ago and today there's tenderness on the left 1st interphalangeal joint of my left hand and left knee. I have been having on and off tenderness and reddening of my left and right 1st interphalangeal joint for the past 3 years which always subside after an acute episode of pain lasting for 1 to 2 days without medication. There's restriction of mobility of the joint during the episode. There's no deformity of the hand and feet joints.

Could it be gout?

Well if that is the case, then it's the first time I've seen such a pointy male breast on a ripped person.

Any pictures of him in the previous competitions? Does he have that distorted left chest in his previous pictures as well? Because common sense is telling me that I won't be going on stage if I have gynecomastia unless it's a congenital deformity which has been there since birth and can't be corrected.

Ya I always wanted to see a doctor but by the time I want to go to a doctor the swelling and redness all subsided and there's nothing to show.

Like now, the pain and redness have already subsided.

Good job at getting lean, but in my opinion, you need more mass.

Monthly progress time!

I feel like whacking that person in the Jan 9, 2007 pic and force him to eat more.

Thanks

No need tight shirt, normal XL T shirt also can see. Maybe it's because I'm fat. I don't remember having that problem 4 years ago when I was like 59kg. Need to lose that fat but how??? I only know how to bulk. But beneath my nipple is just soft and when I squeeze it it's nothing inside and I can feel the chest muscle right beneath it, so I'm confused whether it's gynecomastia or not coz in gynecomastia underneath the nipple will have a round mass inside. I'm pretty upset with it.

Thanks.

I've only been doing side DB shrugs for the past 3+ years on shoulder and/or chest days. Now I just started to change it to back DB shrugs because my gym has only 50lbs DBs and I need a burn on my traps. Need to hold long for shrugs. A lot of people doing it wrongly by doing it fast and rotating the shoulder while shruging. For shrugs just lift your shoulders hold, then slowly go down, like when you're doing "I don't know" sign.

Yeah, my neck was awkwardly long before I started training. It looked like those ladies in Chiangmai with those rings on their neck. Maybe my trapezius muscle has a higher attachment.

1. Wrong thread. This is a "Training, Pictures and Progress Thread"
2. Since I'm kind I'll answer your question in step 3.
3. Read http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/367750
4. Be patient.
5. Be consistent.
6. Read more about nutrition and training, but not from Mens Health, pls.
7. Eat Meal 1
8. Eat Meal 2
9. Eat Meal 3
10. Train your @ss off, squat and press, make sure everyday is not biceps and abs day.
11. Eat Meal 4
12. Eat meal 5
13. Eat meal 6
14. Sleep 7-9 hours a day
15. Repeat Step 4.

Have a nice day.

I wish I had a chest like those.

Yeah, I remember I had a firm lump with the size of a guli underneath my nipples when I was 13, which turn disappeared as I turned 14.

More like "6 ways to have better SEX!', and the next month "Better SEX in SIX days!", the next month "Have a 6-pack and better SEX!"

Flex is more to professional BB with lots of info about Pro BBing events, which I don't really understand.

I like the research and nutrition segment of MM and M&F, but MM's content is less compared to M&F. Where do you guys get the mags? I don't trust in subscribing coz my mom's Feng Shui mags and my dad's scuba diving mags always get missing in the mail. Popular doesn't always have MM and M&F and I missed a lot of issues earlier this month and I complained to the Popular person and still after 3 months still no mags. Then finally last month I found 1 copy of MM in the magazine section, but no M&F. Then this month there's only 1 copy of M&F but no MM.

The only mag they have in stacks on the shelves is that homo mag Exercise/Men's workout, with nothing but ripped people in tights posing for different exercises and nothing else, oh and Men's Health.

MPH in Melaka also sometimes don't have...

The international one is better.

That Arabian guy is it you told us the other day?

Some random close ups taken just now. Starting to feel that I should cut...everything starting to look puffy. Should I cut?

Bro, the gym's smith machine, you stand facing the mirror or away the mirror? Because of the angle of that smith machine, doing anything with it feels weird, especially SM shrugs. Need to ramp up the weight, 50lbs DB shrugs for 20 reps isn't making my traps pop anymore.

Me benching 45lbs DB.

I have no idea why the video is so laggy...it was fine on the phone. Must have been youtube's fault for compressing it.

Darklight is going to bash me for not going down all the way, but I swear it's the lowest I could go and it was my 4th set for DB bench press and before that I did 5 4 sets of flat BB bench press and 5 sets of SM incline bench press.

I usually eat dinner plate with 3 breasts but i remove the skin. The smell makes me feel sick btw. But what to do, friend want to gain weight. What makes me even sicker is sushi king. RM20 for a rice ball.
