Here's my progress pics. I wanna look good with a shirt on first btw.

Long Term Goal: Build Muscle and Burn Fat
Current Goal: Build Muscle

I'm pure ectomorph, gained 16 kg in 5 months, my height is 185cm / 6 feet 1 inch, 5 Months ago my weight is is 57kg, Now my weight is 74kg, 16% body fat (in the pic).





Note: In my after pictures, my deltoids are actually smaller in real life at that time, but I rolled up a small roll of tissue paper and inserted it on my deltoids during the time of the picture because I actually took the picture to see whether I need more deltoid workouts or not. Now my deltoids have grown bigger after I work on it more.

Standing presses aren't really a bodybuilding exercise. I feel that there are better ones for delts such as the seated version or as 4Rings suggested, dbs or machine. The Smith is pretty good for that too.

Lol thanks. it was 100% NO steroid gains btw. I didnt use real bodybuilding supplements either, just everyday milk, quaker oatmeal, some peanut butter and natural foods. And getting meatier is whats most important for me right now. No point taking off my shirt for now, cuz my muscles grew alot, and my body fat also grew alot, but since the fat layer is on top of the muscles, you won't really see much. I'll probably take off my shirt next year when I have gained even more muscle and able to do the cutting down on fats. For the time being I'm relieved that at least I can finally look normal at least after being a skeleton man since i was born Lol.

dude i guess so, it takes a lil longer than those who r shorter. but i guess once we get it, it will be more impressive. the hardwork should pay.

Try bodyweightculture.com or was it bwculture.com

They can do a myriad of things with just a playground.

M O N K E Y what are you talking about ?

aaahhh. you have the same problem as me. long limbs. but dude, you're waaaayyyyyy taller than me man. how tall are you anyway? yeah, basically its hard to grow, but once it grows, it REALLY grows.

you KNOW what im talking about, man! hahahahaha! weh, donkey, wer r u now? i wana go visit u someday. maybe a trip to anabolic or sumthing. must do it before my class starts.

183cm, wat to do , more muscle space therefore need more time to fill up. but sumhow my tummy grow faster than anything. Dam

A Picture Taken last weekend at a waterfall.



Need to burn more fat and some extra muscle mass ~!!

Yeah, there is religious issue in taking shirt off. I say it there cuz ppl there would understand why also. As muslims, for guys, we actually can't show our the area from our belly button to our knee to public especially random ppl on the internet. For girls, actually cannot show all parts except face and the palm area. So if I wanna take off my shirt right now, I'll have to cover up the belly button area by censoring it or cover it with smth, that means I can only show like probably half of my not visible abs and upwards. I also did state another reason right, its because I wanna look good with a shirt on first, thats my goal for now, you can ask darklight79, there is such a goal .

Plus for now if you see also you won't see much muscles, cuz got fat covering it. If you ask darklight also I'm sure he have ppl who tell him that that lean muscular model looked more muscular than him just because the model had low body fat but in reality actually darklight has more bigger muscles just that he have some fat covering it so you don't see the muscularity much. I think his goal is just to get as big as he can first isnt that right darklight?

You also should realize that I'm 6 feet 1 inch tall, and just like what Jamis and Registryeditor been talking about lately, I have a lot more filling up to do. With the fact that I was underweight, then I have even more filling up to do.



That's all you need to see . Got chest also what, you can see one, increase your monitor's contrast and brightness Cuz my goal is to look good with shirt on first, because I was underweight before this.
