How much rest are you into now?

How much rest are you into now?

Only a week haha. I tried to go heavy on deficit deads the other day and my hip began to hurt once I got up to 90% of my 3RM. That was after resting it for 2 weeks. I also just stopped doing cardio in hopes that it could be affecting it as well.

Last time I took measurements, I was at 15.1" arms, 47" shoulders (19.5" width), 39.75" chest, 14.25" neck, 12.25" forearms, 27" waist, 6.5" wrists, 8" ankles, 33.5" hips, 21" legs, and 14.25" calves @ 5'6 136-137 lbs. You're right though, I have noticed we are very similar in that we don't weigh much but we both have decent measurements... I just wish I had your arms because in your pics they look a lot thicker than mine lol.

Protein intake is debatable though, especially for naturals. IA says 1.5-2 g/lb of BW but I've also heard a lot of guys do fine on 1 g/lb of BW. Personally I'm at 1.7 g/lb of BW on a cut since that works for me, but I don't have any experience with going a whole lot lower. If I were you, I would experiment with more protein for a couple months and see if you notice a difference.

We definitely have similar measurements. Your arms definitely look thicker than mine lol. My triceps might be a bit better, but your biceps blow mine out of the water.

I'm going to keep my protein intake where it's at for a week until I go grocery shopping, then I'll bump it up hopefully another 30 or so.

I love how each time I drop cals by a small amount, I automatically lose a bunch of fat the very next day. I weigh 134.8 lbs today... hips are down to 33.25", waist is down to 26.75" (it's finally going down!), and legs down to 20.75" , 3.25" smaller than they were a year and a half ago at a higher bf%! Goes to show you how much your measurements go down once you get lean. Haven't taken any other measurements yet, but my face is looking less fat.

I guess it depends on how you flex your arms too. For example, I've noticed some people whose biceps look crappy in a side chest pose can look great in a double bi pose and vise versa. My avi was also taken at a good angle too, which makes a difference. My arm wouldn't look nearly as thick as yours in your bicep pic though if I were to pose the same way... it even makes me wish I was 2" smaller so I could have shorter & more filled out arms .

I can definitely agree. My arms seem to look a lot fuller from a sid POV, but doing a FDB makes them look meh..

Did you see the pictures of Layne Norton he posted just recently? He looks awesome.

Out of curiosity, how much weight were you gaining when you were "bulking"? (I use the term loosely.)

Yeah he looks crazy, especially his most-muscular. Very impressive how he's able to retain all that mass at such low levels of body fat.

I weighed 147 lbs prior to this particular recomp/cut (which I am in my avi) and was 160 lbs at the highest. I weighed 137 lbs six months before getting up to 147, but I think I should've added mass a bit slower than I was since I added 2% body fat in that time frame. Currently all my muscular measurements aside for thighs/calves are larger than they've ever been so just because I weigh less than most girls now doesn't mean I look like one lols. I as well use the term bulking loosely... so many see bulking as getting fat as hell to gain mass as fast as possible. These same people don't even realize how much just one pound of muscle really adds up to in terms of measurements.

We all make mistakes breh.

Here's me pretty much exactly 2 years ago after 5 months of training. Gained 30 lbs because of course you need to eat big to get big.



I only ate ~2600-2800 cals/day of all clean foods as well haha.

He weighs 216 lbs in these pics and is 4 months out from competing atm. Can you believe he weighs only 191 lbs a week before a competition?!

Since I know you're registered @ weightrainer Kyle, here's a link to a thread you might find interesting regarding Layne Norton & his stats --->

Wow that's awesome! No doubt in my mind about him being the next big thing.

its just surreal to me because i remember seeing a thread of his in post your pictures and he was just a really standout guy...talked about how cordova is his idol.. then a few weeks later he started getting e-fame, still stayed humble through it all...then all of a sudden cordova becomes interested in training him, he gets offers for sponsorships, magazine covers, etc. pretty amazing what the internet can do and definitely a huge motivation. i can picture him up on the stage next to cordova and the other top guys within 5 years, maybe even less time than that. this pic is a a pretty crazy comparison:

Fuuuuuu both of them look so damn good!

Wow, tricep striations make me so jealous. Very impressive!

[voodoochild113]

Honestly dude, I think you'd look pretty good after a cut to get rid of that extra puppy fat around your belly. Otherwise you're looking mad thick. Props to you!
