LMAO I love The Situation.....hated him the first season, but he's grown on me. That gif's awesome!

Seriously, Hicks - like you told me - give yourself some credit, man. You're gonna be big. All you have to do is do what Ryan tells you and it'll happen. It's gonna happen. Say it to yourself....it's gonna happen.

Follow the plan and it'll happen. Slowly but surely it'll happen. Consistency.

thanks for the words guys.. This is really the only way I can tell that I'm still looking decent lol. If I took these pics in the gym, it would look a ton better. Took some other shots but these will do for now. I'll post up more in a week or so. Just a slow and steady process.


My workout this morning (HyperTrohpy chest/back) was sick. I had a sick pump... But it was something I haven't really felt before in my chest.. It was basically a pump and I could flex my pec, and it would slightly tighten up and it was rock solid.. It was awesome

My chest has really leaned out a lot but still have a bit of fat on it. Back is getting dialed in and my arms are getting there as well. I promise I will post workouts tonight when I get off from work. Will do cardio again tonight

You hit the nail on the head bro, Slow and steady always wins. Now make them haters

Come at me bro

[Irish Iron]

amazing progress on the back in such a short time!

::Whistling:: Shredding out...

I second that, and raise the whistling to a catcall lol

[JHICKS3301]

LOL thanks guys... It helps me keep going with all the support you guys give.

Hypertrophy legs tomorrow... Feel like I might be coming down with a bit of a cold. So we'll see how that plays out.

But everything is on point.. keep grinding

Lol, just do what I do, tell yourself you don't have time to be sick and keep truckin'...works for me! Just convince yourself it's all in your head and your body will follow...or take some vitamin C

[B Con]

How's it been going J?

[Starkk]

Still watching... hard work in here.

[JHICKS3301]

Thanks for checking in guys... A good update will be going on tonight when I get home from work. Today is a total off day. But will do cardio this afternoon. Just to make up for the weekend.. But everything from now on will be on point. Should be good things. But a good update tonight for sure since I'll have some free time.

HURRY UP!

[JHICKS3301]

LOL.. Nah nothing really that big..

Just I'm at 240lbs... Haven't been that in quite some time..

Also, no changes from Ryan for the coming week.



Man, you guys building me up

But I will be helping out doing some demos for CL in the local area. Everything has been cleared with the boss... They don't do demos now so I'm going to be their "tester"

Before, I used to do store demos for EST while with XF... EST wasn't to great with their demo reps..

So looking forward to see how well this works out

[SavageOne]

Just stumbled onto your thread...looks like you're killing it as always. Keep it up!

sounds like you're right on track brotha! And I've heard from jrmuscle and tatteredsaint that est is a bunch of pricks

[SavageOne]

It's a ghost!!!


What's good man!! How the hell have you been?

Haha, I'm coming back for good once I get moved in about a week or so. It's a long story, but finally coming back!

You look huge! Saw the recent pics, excellent work! Would rep, but need to spread it around!

[JHICKS3301]

man, horrible workout this morning. Energy sucked.. My shoulder joints are killing me.

Started out trying to do decline bench and I went for 275 and couldn't get 2 reps. So I stopped for risk of injury.

Then went to incline.. Felt fine. Threw up 110's pretty easy..

Went to dips, couldn't hardly do 6 reps with BW. Shoulder joints were killing me.

So I'm going to make a couple of changes to my supplement program. Going to change preworkouts and going to mega dose some joint support. Still waiting on my belt to come in. Hopefully it will come today cause I have heavy legs tomorrow.

I did have a decent pump in my chest. My back was solid as always. It was just an all around sh*tty workout. But tomorrow is another day and there are many more days on this journey


Pic taken this morning. Slow and steady progress
