I have been around long enough now that I have made some significant changes since coming to bodybuilding.com. I have also seen others make HUGE changes.
So when I first came to bb.com, I was too embarrassed to post a current pic of myself. So I posted an old pic of me from my 20's when I was in shape. A few members encouraged me to stop living in the past and post up a current pic.
So, sucking in my gut as best I could....this was my first official (current at the time) AVI.
(If you look though your bodyspace, all the AVI's you have uploaded should be there. Pick out your oldest and post it. It will be fun to see all the changes.)

Oh lawd.
In on this. Holy embarrassing though.
This was my first avi; a pic from 2008. Was 5 years out of the gym here, and looking like ****.
Could still hold my son off the ground with one finger though.

I lurked for months before I created an account. Was to embarrassed with how I looked to have an avatar. This was the first shot I took where I thought that I was making progress.

^^ Nice. These avis really show the progress folks have made over the years. IC, you've added a ton of muscle. Great progress from others too - Can definitely see big differences with Flex, AA, and Carlman (more size).Originally Posted by IronCharles

This was my first AVI. It came after I was brave enough to post.

I think I had more muscle than that when I was 13.

Only been here a little over a year but this was one of my first avi's I used.
Not the same pose of course but have had a good bit of growth in my arms from a several months ago. (bad pic I know... I borrowed Bando's potato camera
)
And this one a month ago. One of my favorite avi's

This is the oldest one in my file on here. I have no idea what my first one was. I was on here with a different name before I was Simpy.
