Figured I'd share a couple of pics so ya'll have more to go on than my goofy online persona. For the basics: I am 6'3'', so quite tall and very lanky. I am a lifetime natural but have no interest in competing. I've been in/out of the gym for 12 years or so, and am just coming back from nearly 4 years out of the gym and a myriad of minor health problems. So for me, lifting is more of a stress reliever / hobby / something relatively constructive to obsess over. I won't go out of my way to post training logs but I work out 4-5 days a week, typical 3-day split. I was a textbook "skinnyfat" when I started, with wide hips for my height.
-
back has good potential,whats your weight?pretty lean considering your lay off and getting back into it,delts and arms are getting there too.keep updated pics going.like me ;D,,good structure goes with the height just need to and i learned lots of traps heavy/reps,,2x week if needed..
-
I'm a hair or two above 200-205 right now. Arms are a serious weak point but delts came back quickly even without me hitting them very hard, so there's an obvious trade-off. Achim Albrecht syndrome :P
Thanks for the response. I'll post any further pics and updates in this thread, similar to how you do it

i've learned with arms hi reps/partials on curls bottom to mid or midpart to top throw it all in,back work hits bi's too but not the same stimulation pump wise unless of course your a genetic freak and chinups pump your arms up lol,,,i do an extra arm pump day every other week if i can,,my bi's are shortish but peak ok,,i'm lucky my tris always went pretty low and rode up to rear delt ,i'm still like u looking for more/better/small improvements through diet/supp's/hard work..
-
My tris aren't terrible but biceps are sort of lost in "no mans land", not short enough to get a good peak, and not long enough to really fill out the arm. Also they are very narrow, if you are looking at my arm from the front its really obvious. I do lots of concentration curls with elbow leveraged against my leg. I don't go all of the way down though. I do this with 40s, 45s...Make sure I can do at least 10 reps. Always go to failure for those. I do lots of hammer curls too

that works ,,just train thats the 1st part,eating and extras make up rest..i do hammers on knee and standing across the body hammers arms locked front of hand faces mirror .
-
I always get really bad forearm cramping after I work biceps. Usually once my pump wears off later in the day, and it persists all the rest of the day.
I drink plenty of water and don't have an electrolyte issue, but this only happens with my forearms.
-
My chest is terrible but I'm working on it.

FLYES AND DIPS ,,SUPERSET CABLE CROSSOVERS AND DIPS I LIKE 2...
-
I started doing cable flyes instead of dumbbells. I use 90% dumbbells for chest and that is probably why I don't have much size, I'm always working out alone and don't have a spotter.
Will try dips more.

your fine I do all db work as well ,I do inc press a lot too tho,,,I feel flyes dips built my chest a lot...guy I train with is a stronger presser than me db/barbell,but his chest is flat like a pancake...

agree 100% i just never feel my chest like i do on Dips and Flys with Benches. Only workout i will do for chest is Decline and Incline press if Benching. Flat Bench press i have never liked and i have like you guys mainly worked with Dbs on it.

Weighed myself first time since last August. I've put on 25 lbs in the last year just getting back into things. Obviously not all muscle but its encouraging nonetheless.

i like rope pushdowns or overhead version,i also superset premade curl bar 'skull crushers with close press ,,not to bad man...they pop off the rea r delt..
-
I would say that tris are actually a strong point for me,, they always have good separation even if I'm not in 'great' shape. arms still need a lot of work they are lagging behind my shoulders it looks weird from the front
-
Kind of out of shape at the moment, but took an impromptu relaxed back pic first thing after I woke up this morning. I'm 6'3''

How many times do you need to mention that you're a whopping 6'3.
No one cares.
Decent build for a natural tho.

It's because it is harder to look properly developed when you are upwards of 6 feet tall, especially as a natural. Not really an excuse, but I feel it is necessary to set the context because I know I have a lot of improvement to make.

Why are your pictures so shitty?
Instead of including your height you should include your megapixels.
-
The camera on my cell phone is fucked up. It will only shoot and save videos, not pics. So I have to take a screenshot of a video, which is already in lower resolution to begin with.

No problem with manlets, but they hate me for sure. I don't have that inherent anger at the world for making me short.

Halo inspired me to post an arm pic. I have very high tricep insertion, average biceps and lanky forearms.

people dont give me enough credit for my arm genetics
look at this fucking shit
jk bro looking good ;D
i think you need to bend your wrist less, possibly also bend your arm less. it's all about finding the perfect shot
-
Yeah, I have very skinny wrists and big hands. This actually causes an illusion and makes my arms look even smaller. It sucks.
-
Props man. Keep lifting those weights.

you need to keep adjusting your pose until you find the perfect angles
this is key

i hate when ppl tell me this
-
NEITHER, I work on a Mac so I can't tell if this shot is an improvement.
It was just a matter of enlarging the photo and lightning it up a bit.
I'd crop it but I don't know how.
Hope it helps.
-
STUNT,
Thanks. The problem is the raw image resolution. As I've said, my phone is messed up and will only shoot videos, which naturally have a lower resolution to keep file size low. All of my images are screenshots taken from videos. It's actually a good idea because you can pick which frame looks best, but I just need a better camera period.
-
I fear for your health.

Here's one from today.
-
Haven't posted much here recently. Power was out at the gym for over a week, so I took a break from the diet and everything, put on a few bad pounds. Strength is up, but I'm starting to struggle with my arms lagging behind everything else.

Which PF are you wreaking havoc at?

I was going to the Powerhouse on Telegraph in Dearborn, but they closed up. The PFs I frequent are Westland and Northville.

When did that happen? The one on the east side of Telegraph? I used to go to Powerhouse on Telegraph back when it was where Reps Gym currently sits.

Was doing the Fitness 19 at 5/Newburgh but they closed. Now I go to Fitness 19 Farmington for heavy training and
hit the PF at 5/Newburgh on lighter/cardio days.

Haven't posted much here lately... not really a new pic but hey it's something different at least.
-
Damn. My camera's pic quality is getting even worse. I don't even need to block my face out anymore.
-
Shoulders comin' along..
-
Good build man. Keep it up and stay natty, it keeps you perpetually young and healthy.
-
Thanks dude.
Haven't posted much lately... been pretty stressed with real life stuff lately but I'm hanging in there strength-wise... but I lost some of my condition.

Thanks m8. Delts definitely a strong point of mine... arms not so much, but that's part of being tall I guess...

sorry....sometimes iīve been a bit ironic.... ::)
my back yesterday late evening....started training after late shift at 10:20 PM....
-
Awesome man... hope I can get that size at our height.
Anyway, don't expect any image updates from me for a while. My shitty ass phone camera now refuses to focus, so the only images I can get are these blurry ass screencaps. Just not worth the effort at the moment.
-
having a rough time with personal issues, which is about on par for this Summer so far. I've managed to maintain my strength, only lost a lot of my conditioning. I found out that my phone was taking shitty images when I use the lens on the front of it, so I can now take less-shitty images like earlier.
-
Good news is I finally got a new phone, so this is the last shit quality pic hopefully.
-
so you are an actual legit poster.. not bad,,

Thanks, feels good to be gh15 approved.
Anyway, here's a pic I posted earlier but it was really dark, so I upped the brightness a bit. One of the few pics of mine that you can kinda make out details... nothing amazing I know but I'm always trying to improve.

This was a few weeks ago before I started cutting in earnest. I got my strength back from my long break but wasn't in the same condition. Natural as always.

Look thick,harden up best as u can clean,without dissapearing
-
Okay, I've lost most of the fat that I want to. Midsection still looks weird but I have loose skin because I used to be overweight. Didn't lose any strength. I'm back to where I was a year or so ago, full stop.
-
Weight has been up and down by a few lbs lately.
-
good work mate, stick with it...
-
I tried getting a better back shot and I swear to God I have some weird posture imbalance. I think its a winged scapula or something. My left trap is way smaller and my right lat has protrusion that the other side doesn't. (Remember this is a mirror so the sides are switched)

Im the same at the moment, I seem to have some impingement holding my shoulder up a bit
It only a recent thing, maybe we need some physio mate

My entire left side is significantly smaller than my right, even though strength is equal. Really bad elbow sprain during high school basketball and I didn't go to the doctor - afraid I was going to spend the summer of my senior year in a cast. My left forearm/brachioradialis is like nonexistent.

Looking good NA

Thanks dude. For some reason your Youtube videos keep coming up in my recommendations. ;D
