It's been a year since I sign up with a gym and started working out.

Wanna share my progress with all of you.


May 2006, a year ago. 64KG.

Today, 23 May:


Relaxed front


Flexed front, my chest still suck ass.


Double back bicep


Back lat spread


Some sexy pose. lol


Close up front bicep. Small guns.


Close up back bicep


Side tricep

Most of the gains come from Rippetoe's program I reckon. Anyway I'm currently on Max-OT for 5 weeks now.

I bulked when I first started, gain up to 75kg (From 64kg). Decided to cut 2 months ago and now I'm currently 69-70kg. The decision to cut was based on not able to fit into my slacks and my gut was getting unsightly.

Current BF% is around 16% according to Acu-measure calipers. Do you guys reckon is correct from looking at the pics?

Criticism welcome! Cheers.

Thats good to hear then. I've cleaned up my diet since early this year. The thing is during this cutting phase. I can't find to up my cardio. I lift 5 days in the evening and cardio (HIIT) on the weekends, offdays.

I guess if I wanna up it more, I have to wake up earlier and do cardio before work.

Thanks boss. My triceps used to be very tiny!


Was planning to drop till 12% bf. But my weight has stagnated, so as my bodyfat loss progress since 1 or 2 weeks back. Sigh.

I also cheated for the past few weekend, drinking wine and kilkenny's. It's the phase again, where I need some life back if you know what i mean!


Yeah thats 1 year gain. I think I could have done better though. However at least it's better than no gain as well. That would be disastrous to my motivation.

I just found another 'before' pic on my pc. This was in Oct 2006. Really crap progress since started in May 2006.

This back picture was taken just before I took up Rippetoe's program. Anyway I thought this will make a very good comparison. I was laughing when I saw the pic. For some reason I can't remember I looked like that before.


Dunno how to flex or nothing to flex, either way.


Picture I posted earlier just for comparison sake.

Cheers.
