My Posing Video. Need Help

4evafit · 06-11-2007, 07:43 AM

ok boys this is my first ever posing video. i am currently bulking and need some advise.

i started bulking after my last cut in about december last year. the reason i started bulking is because i was getting to skinny during my cut. i was 169lbs when i started to bulk. im 5'9. i am now 206lbs. my goal was trying to get to 230lbs then cut to about 180lbs. but i have been 206lbs for about 2 months now and im not going up in weight anymore. i was gaining about 4lbs a week in the start. and now i stoped. i tried increasing my cals but it didnt work. i tracked my progress for four weeks after i increased my cals and the weight looked like this.

week 1.
201.5lbs

week2.
204.6lbs

week 3
206lbs

week 4
203.5lbs

im annoyed that im not moving upwards. i think my body has stoped gaining muscle and started gaining fat. i just wont to ask u guys, WOULD I BE TO SKINNY IF I CUT NOW, AND HOW MUCH POUNDS DO U THINK I NEED TO LOSE TO BE RIPPED?

heres the video:

If you cut now you could probably be a pretty ripped 175, maybe 180.

slow down your posing and really emphasize the muscles your trying to show by really flexing it hard

needhelppp · 06-11-2007, 11:36 AM

heh try to do 2 vids showing detail in both, that way you have more time to emphasize on a certain muscle

I think if you cut down, you're going to be a fitness model look.

It's not bad at all, then start bulking again..

Try to cut until you sea your full abdominal wall and then bulk again..

Your bf right now probably around 15-20 %

I noticed that your arms are pretty huge.
Nice build of course(fitness model).
so probably..you need to lose at least 20 lbs i think..

MesoPeaks · 06-11-2007, 11:54 PM

definitely in the high teens for BF% and looks like you had a good muscle base when you got started and that you are really putting on more fat than anything else.
Dude look at your video and you make the call, is this how you want to look on the beach for the 4th of July?

dude summer is not until november down here. i got alot of time.

any answers to my questions?

quest-x · 06-13-2007, 02:13 AM

Don't trust numbers. Seriously. I hate when people do that.

Trust the mirror.

You and I have similar builds. I have a bit more body fat than you.

Definitely cut. You and I, because of our mass, will look pretty damn good when we're shredded.

I've seen people with less mass than us look awesome after cutting.

Besides, trust me, you want a head start on getting ripped for the summer.

Good luck.

Baby_Jesus · 06-13-2007, 08:44 AM

Supertransplant · 06-13-2007, 08:46 AM

thats what i wont to dude bro. but the problem is that i stoped putting on muscle and started putting on fat. so what im going to do is cut until my abs are visible and then bulk up again.

Xetenor · 06-14-2007, 01:29 AM

I'd start cutting and have the muscles come out. Be consistent and you'll get there bro. Looking good so far, you have good looking arms. Good luck! Btw are you armenian?

after watching the video, i new instantly you were arab. i am too bro, palestinian. my uncle lived down there for like five years or so. anyways, i would definitely recommend you cut. and to answer your question about bodyfat, in order to figure out your bodyfat and how much you need to lose, it just takes simple math. so you are about 205 lbs. if you are 20% bodyfat, multiply your weight (205) by your bodyfat (20% or .2) which equals 41 pounds. so if you want to get to 10% then you need to lose about 20 pounds. but realistically you will probably lose 25 pounds to get to 10% because of lost muscle mass. therefore, you should be about 10% bodyfat at 180 pounds, which is absolutely shredded and you will have a perfect body. believe me, you won't be too small and at your height you don't want to be much bigger than that.

im no were near 20% bf. i asked around in my gym and thay said about 14-16%. im looking to be about 183-185lbs with 10% bf. how much pounds is 1% bf?
