9 months progress

[JVDTWG]

Here is a photo of my transformation for April 23rd 2012 until January 15th 2013 (roughly 9 months)



In the left hand side i am 78 kg and at around 22% body fat. Perennially the skinny fat kid, pushing my fists under my bi's to make them look bigger, sucking my stomach in and believe it or not flexing my chest.....

Fast forward 9 months and here I am on the right. 91.5kg at around 11.8% body fat.

Anyone rate?

I was pretty much starting as low as you can, but the biggest difference came when I got my diet and supplements right...

You think you could help me out? Ive got a thread titled "need quick advice" and i would greatly appreciate your input

Dude, really try to focus on mind muscle connection for your chest... It seems like you, like me, have had a hard time growing that sucker.

Either that or you aren't dedicated with your nutrition or training schedule.

I feel like you could have done better, but, Progress nonetheless. Keep going!

GJ, Repped!

I was switching between volume and heavy training, which phucked my progress... I changed my mind to much, but have now settled on a 5x10 routine that should give me size and thickness.... I'd say my next three months will be better again...

Good progress for 9 months, keep it up.

I had trained and played sports pretty much my whole life. Prior to April 23rd i hadn't seen a gym in about 9 months.... and when I trained before it was very noob power! No real plan, no diet, no matching supps.

So this is probably my first real attempt at body building...

[Koalamaisteri]

Really nice transformation imo.
I have myself trained 9months now and the results are nowhere near yours

[JVDTWG]

Good job OP

Keep at it dude - do it once - do it properly! You'll get there!

Yeah 50 kg each hand. At my main gym that's as big as they go - though at a few other ones I train at they have 52, 54 and 56... So when I'm there I'll look to do some sets on them but main goal is still to do all four working sets on 50 kg each hand.

Really nice transformation imo.

Cheers Brah! Keep at it. Most important things to remember are consistency and diet & supplements.... Its what every one forgets.

Great job OP, mirin'

What were your macros/cals like?

[sameaha]

This is quite impressive!

How did you lower body fat?
What supplements did you take? And last how many calories ?

Cheers brahs.

ATM I'm trying to get up to around 100 kg (220 pounds) so not really worried about ab fat etc. probably back up around 12.5% now.... But will cut this off once I hit my goal.

I didnt really focus on macros. Just made sure I ate and drank clean and at 6 times a day. Focused on eating salad or steamed veggies with every meal and had either salmon, steak, kangaroo (the best) or chicken with every meal too.

Main thing was getting the supps right. Making sure what I was using didn't double up too much etc. Here is my current supps:

Advanced Muscle Science, Decavol - Taken twice daily to boost testosterone levels

Zion, War Machine PWO - 1.5 scoops 45 mins before work out

GENTEC, P2P - 2 scoops consumed during work out

Nature's Best, Zero Carb Isopure - 2 scoops consumed immediately following work out

and i thought my progress was really slow for 6-7 months, turns out we're both working our asses off haha great progress

[RandomBear]

Keep up the good work!

Thanks brah. I have an Ecto body as well, so its always that little bit harder. I also suffer from Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ehlers%...anlos_syndrome) basically means I have to work twice as hard as everyone else to get the same results! But it is what it is..

Keep up the good work!

good job brah!

Thanks brahs!
