14 Year old Wrestler...

[Newtt]

Unfortunately i dont have very good progress pictures as I didnt know how/what to pose and show at the beginning but i will be keeping them more accurate now.

I'm 5'6, and have been lifting for 4 months now and have gone from 119 lbs to 150 lbs with little fat gain. Here are my current pics.






My rear lat spread is in my avatar.

Comments/critiques welcome.

You don't really have arms.

Looks like your chest is lagging quite a bit compared to the rest of your body. Very built for a 14 year old though, good job!

Yea my dad's friend noticed that too, my upper chest is weak.

[8mile]

Too bad you're too young to join the Ultimate Fighters, etc. Just keep doin whatcha do. Just continue.

One hard bodd for 14. Impressive.

The Hands On Hips Most Muscular photo of Newtt should be compared to the age 16 similar photo of Teen Nationals Lightweight winner, Jeff Melancon, when he was 16, 125 lbs., 250 deadlift. He is now 19, with a 298 bench on record in Louisiana, 148, which are not e-stats. His age 16 photo can likely still be found at his Mr Unbelievable Bodyspace, in the previous posts part. He likely met Shane Giese at the Nationals, if not over the internet prior to that. Shane was Third Light Heavies. Newtt is a 152 by comparison, and likely taller than Jeff at that age. Both are wrestling conditioned.

The Front Lat Spread can be compared with BIGlouie, from Brooklyn, (nearby to Long Island), who was promoting all the teen bodybuilding.com contests when he was about to start high school, barely age14 in that August, about the same height, 148 lbs. Newtt has serrats by comparison. Shane and Lui are high school football, (though Shane Stopped). Jeff Melancon drifted into powerlifting and bodybuilding, out of Louisiana wrestling.

Newtt is so far more like them, and to the wrestling advantages. BIGlouie is still in football. Shane developed lean muscularity, needing only mass, even at age 16. BIGlouie knew about Shane Giese.

Now there is starting to be Newtt. So far the thread is impressive. Newtt knows about these fellows, already.

[mascale]

Actually Jeff Melancon was at a 250 bench. Imagine if the deadlift had been at 450!?!

Maybe for 148's, unless we're going for the over 600's like some drug-tested age 17 148's from California.

Besides USAPowerlifting, there is also AAU powerlifting in the world.

[Murfdogg]

you could hit up the chest and shoulders big time. And maybe a little trap action as well.

[big traps makes you look bigger (do some shrugs. for different variations go to the fit show and find Stan Mcquay's misclanious muscle exercises)]

[Newtt]

thx for the advice murff.

[jaylight81]

great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! tank for 14, good job bro

[Tasp]

Great progress within those 4 months.

[phuz]

31 lbs of muscle in 4 months?
not buying it....

good pics tho.

[OminousD27]

Looking good, for your age youve got great size, is suggest working on your chest, bicep, and shoulder/traps more.

[NextProtege]

Wow, your amazing for 14, really.

Keep working on your chest, but the secret to a great wrestler is their impressive back. You're obviously right there.

It might not have been 31 pounds of "muscle" per say, my lowest weight during 06-07 season was 119.4 lbs, dehydrated and starved to make weight, but i have gained a helluva lot of muscle, due to my work ethic, coaching, body type (natrual meso). I'd estimate in the middle of the season i was at about 8-9% BF at around 126 hydrated(piss clear) and full of food. so 25 lbs of LBM was probably attained.

you can see my starting stats in my bodyspace, and thats after a bit of lifting (so i've gained more weight/power tahn actually recorded)

Thx tho.

So Lifter Newtt shows the effect of the all-around lean wrestling conditioning, number one, and so starting the lifting program after season created the usual new-lifter gains. It is not unusual for fellows in his age group / weight class who are wrestlers to created upwards of 15 pounds or so gain in month one: The famous water volumization effect. As additional months happen, the protein in the diet creates the mass. In Newtt Lifter's new powerlifting thread, the other basis shown is the low sets, low reps conditioning. Famous Creatine is considered by the Olympic Committees to be a food, and it creates no muscularity all by itself. There is other food, other conditioning, and proper lfiting required.

[Newtt]

bump causei can

[mascale]

The Wrestling Conditioning came first. Anyone can see or verify that Newtt was leaner at the start. Then, (1) he came off season, and that normal bodyweight increase, (2) he commenced the lifting with reasonable newbie gains, and (3), he commenced a Creatine supplementation month, often associated with 15 and more "muscle weight," (intra-cellular water weight), pound gains in month one. Most people's muscle cells have never been hydrated like that ever before. The first month gains are astonishing, and mind-bending. A high-protein diet, complex carbs loaded, was on-going. The normal recovery, repair, and growth of the muscle cells happened. What started off as astonishing did not go the way of a steroid cycle, down the toilet, when it was over. He did low set, low rep lifting, continually increasing the barloads. What he gained, he kept. There was no forty or more pound muscle weight loss, of the type associated with drug and performance enhancing substance abuse.

Bodybuilding happened, drug-free. There was muscularity to begin with. Increase of muscle weight happened, consequent intended activity to increase that particular bodyweight instead of other bodyweight.

And so anyone infers that there are actually smart people in Mensa(?).

Creatine has no calories. Creatine is a particular kind of food, and not a drug.

Science proves that wrong bro. But looking good.

[mascale]

Sk8tboar! What does science proove? About what? You are supposed to go line for line and explain.

People who do science already know what they know. They publish and make known results of studies that anyone can look at and challenge.

Newtt did a report. You have evidence that the report is wrong or you do not. You report Newtt's actual bodyweight during all these months, and you report what Newtt was doing all these months.

This, so far, you have failed personally to do.

So now, you state your case in reply. You have contrary evidence and findings or you do not. Post them.

In the alternative, others should note that Newtt has no problem with posting evidence and findings. Others should note that there appear to be other problems, with other posters, with providing other evidence and findings in their posts.

ok, so i said 126 piss clear hydrated to 152 lbs right? so thats 25-26 lbs, maybe not all muscle, but a good deal of it. so lets do the math.

The max amount of muscle you can gain per week is 1 lb.

so...

25 (lbs) / 4 (months) = 6.25 lbs a month

6.25 / 4 (weeks per month) = 1.5 lbs a week.

Ok. You seem to be correct. Except the fact that I'm 14, and still growing in growth spurts, and I've never workout out in my life. In my mind i know i gained, ok, a little bit was water weight.

Anyway, sorry for my lame bump, i just saw this thread after looking through old pages.
