lol don't come at me with that ****. The right diet, workouts, supplementation, and some genetics and anything is possible. I'll look at your post in a positive way however. I don't think I look that big that I look like I'm on juice but if you think im that big then I guess thanks.

1-2lb a week of pure muscle isn't possible unless you're a god mode genetic freak or on celltech. 1-2lb of weight is easily possible but you don't look like you gained much fat at all. But then again lighting and all sorts of other variables come into play when taking pictures
I call genetic freak or celltech. Nonetheless superior gains for 6 months especially if natty, mad jelly! Good job bro

I am like everyone else on here and just amazed at your results! Excellent work! What sort of program and diet are you running? I just finished up 12 weeks of HRT Solo and I am utterly amazed at my own results. I would recommend giving HRT a go. It is humbling, and it'll kick your butt, but it works! Here's the link for the Solo program if you prefer to go it alone: http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showth...hp?t=149307883
and here's the link for HRT with a partner: http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/hrt-...-overview.html
With a good diet, good supplementation, and the right amount of cardio (if any), this program will transform you. You should see some of other folks' transformations. Unreal! Tom also has a Highway to Hell version that I have yet to try, but a few others have been bold enough to do it. It's crazy awesome! Here's the link to it: http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showth...hp?t=147690243
Feel free to check out some of my photos to see what it can do for a person. This was my first time doing anything like this, and I was quite amazed at the results. You're gonna be a beast in a few more months; look forward to seeing more of your progress. Keep up the hard work and dedication!!

Thanks man, I'd be glad to.
It's hard to grab ahold of a diet for some, but for me I have an all you can eat buffet/cafeteria at my college.
Breakfast
6 large scrambled eggs
2 cups oatmeal
1 Banana
900 calories
Midday shake (homemmade)
12 o.z. 1% milk
1-2 scoops whey
1 cup oatmeal
2 scoops peanutbutter
tablespoon yeast
1 banana
roughly 1000-1100 calories
Lunch
Tuna sandwich w/salad or Turkey/Chicken Sandwich w/salad
Strawberry Greek Yogurt
Fruit of choice
roughly 600 calories
Dinner
Sweet Potatoe
Green beans
Brown rice
pasta
Chicken Breast/ribs/meatballs/steak
salad
1200 calories
I workout between lunch and dinner and take another homemade gainer postworkout (1000cals)
Some days I supplement meals w/ meal replacement bars
WORKOUT ROUTINE
Now, I take all advice/suggestions, but don't flame my routine. It has been working for me and I have seen nice strength/size gains. I used two hit most body parts twice a week, but lately I have been isolating all of my workouts, allowing more time for sets/exercises for each muscle.

hey man, huge progress. i know you said your routine is working for you and you don't want to change it up, which i respect as you need to do whatever works for you, however your back day is insane. why so many variations of pulldowns? personally i would hit one or two variations of pull-up/pull-down a week, and just switch grips between weeks if you want to change things up. you have a great start to your back, just need a bit more thickness. for that i would focus mostly on rows and deadlifts. keep up the good work.

Thanks for the advice, I would gladly change it though, I just didn't want people saying like "your workout routine is retarded blah blah blah". I recently just added more workouts to my back routine because I felt that it wasn't really being worked at times so I just added more variations. Do you think it would be better if I eliminated some workouts and increased my sets? I wasn't sure which way to go. Thanks again, I've been increasing the amount of deadlifts I've been doing so I'll keep you updated.
I'll rep you once I can give out rep again btw.Animal Rage

yeah like i said i would weed out some of those pull downs. you should only really need to a handful of lifts to target your back. if you aren't feeling like you were getting a good work out with fewer exercises maybe you should focus more on how you are executing your lifts. ask someone in your gym (that knows what they are doing) to spot you and see if your form needs improving. also and importantly, explode up/down when pulling on lifts like rows or pull ups/down. i guarantee if your form is good and you do this you definitely will feel your back being worked. your set and rep range look pretty good. occasionally i like to focus on rows or deadlifts only during a workout and will then greatly expand my set number, but typically ill keep them between 3-5. for deadlifts, my personal view is to keep reps low. you will be able to move more weight and won't wear out your lower back.
