I am going to really start oracticing my posing now. I can pose much better in front of a mirror, but not as well without.

Ditto! Very impressive and still have 9wks to go. Btw, no more Casper jokes, promise :D.

The lighting is very bad and it's hard to get an accurate picture of what you really look like now. Lower body looks exquisite though.

That's better than the opposite :D. This is also why I have my high carb days on upper body day.

[Gettin_big]

Wow Derek, looking excellent 9 weeks out!
Everything looks great!!!
The posing is really good too.

On your next bulking phase I would emphasize on increasing the size of the shoulders and triceps.

[f*cking ecto]

shoulders are big enough ;)

I zoomed a little in his rdb pic..

[f*cking ecto]

As I said, I got burned from tanning and was therefore holding water. The side tricep shots wouldn't upload.

[M.Bison]

very impressive

[goth666]

o sry, i thought ur sunburn might have had somethin to do with it, but i was just wondering why b/c ur upper body was very lean. good job

[Beast]

I normally store my fat and hold more water in my legs as it is :(

There are threads about my diet and supps. People that don't know me ask if I use steriods, but those who know me know I don't.

Derek...how big were your quads in these pics? They look huge! Do you have any problems finding pants that fit at that size?

[Beast]

26 something.
All my pants rip after awhile... :(

[Cosmonaut]

What weight class are you going to compete in, will it be the same as last time? I remember you saying that if you knew that you would come in that light you prolly would have went into a lower weight class.

[MynameisMike]

Damn, I looked at that picture and said that can't be Michigan in November Lol then i looked and it was from may

[Mandingo]

Buy pants that fit, idiot. I've got four inches on you and haven't had trouble yet. I bet you're one of those kids who walks around in ultra tight clothes showing off his awesome muscles.

[Uber-neggR]

mandingo, your so cool. can i be your friend?

beast/derek (derek the beast?), what are your surrent stats (measurments?)

[Mestizo]

26 something.

Really? I would have guessed at least 28. Mine are 24, but I'm pretty short at 5'4" and they don't even look close to yours.

[goth666]

26 something.


uve gotta be kidding me.....................

u need a new tape measure or something. lol

[Beast]

I don't really give too much thought to measurements because it's just a number and bodybuilding is about appearance.

[costasoldatos]

I'm in Clinton Twp here, next to Mt. Clemens, what part you in, nice pics, lookin forward to seein your progress,

[CluelessAsian]

What's your body fat % in those pics?
