Hi, I'm new to bodybuilding; any input would be appreciated guys : )

[Laura Lee]

Translation: My feelings are hurt; you're spot on about everything.

Before you start giving advice on hair, tell your boyfriend, aka skinny lobster man, to grow some.

: )

Awww, poor James.  It's your feelings that are obviously hurt.  You feel the need to attack my boyfriend in defense of comments I made about yourself.   Poor wittle baby.  You must be young....high school maybe?  That behaviour sounds so very high school ("oh yeah, well you're mom is ugly and fat" bla bla bla). 

So, if you are, I appologize as I don't want to be known as a bully who picks on children.  If not...well, you might want to actually start training your own legs before you start calling someone else a skinny lobster.   


oh and btw...in regards to your comment about Michael not having hair...ROFLMAO...you tool, he shaves his head because likes the look, not because he can't grow it.     Kinda like you choose to grow yours long because you like looking like a chick the look.

He likes looking like a skinny lobster?

Sorry, but I don't believe it.

Brutal. Try again, Jimmy. You always get 2 chances from now on, since you're young and not the smartest.

James -- Jimmy.

Do you have Alzheimer's?

[Laura Lee]

James -- Jimmy.

He's obviously a lot s-l-o-w-e-r than we thought, DK. 

[DK II]

Do you have Alzheimer's?

Oh you hit me deeply.

Weak attempt. Try again.

[DK II]

it's the age. Everytime he thinks about something, his brain either shoots out estrogen so he cuts himself up or testosterone so he tries to be badass. It's not his fault really.

I agree, definitely the age.  Like I said, I think he's still in high school or just out at best.  The behaviour/attitude/comments are that of a 17 year old.

[James Phoenix]

People have been insulting me from the start; don't twist it around.

As soon as I shoot some insults back, it's because I have an "attitude" or whatever.

Total hypocrites.

That's ok, because, as I said, looking at the people insulting me it's really hilarious.

You came on here and asked a bbing forum what they thought of your physique.  Some gave you props, others teased your posing (I just went back and looked at your posing and it is horrific for bbing.) and some teased your sense of style.  Like I said prior, there is a huge range of people here, and you're gonna get shit.  You stated "looking back at the people insulting you is really hilarious".  Have you seen pictures of those insulting you?

I think it has become crystal clear by now that you are unable to make an insult, no matter how hard you try.

"skinny lobster"
"Do you have Alzheimer's"

He's really unusually weak.

You are a wonderful person Laura Lee.

Michael Arvilla is shaping up to be quite the bodybuilder.

You've both struggled so hard to reach your goals.

I imagine that, now that you've reached the top of the mountain;

you can look down with a calm sense of knowing;

the weight of the world has been lifted from your shoulders.

You must be so happy in that, you've reached this summit together;

two sides working as one whole body.

One fit, muscular body.



God Bless you and your family.

I want to stop at a VanDamme/Marky Mark/Chris Angel type physique.

Not huge, but athletic, attractive, and defined.

I'm sure I'm not alone in this endeavor.

I'm sure many people here have goals similar to my own.

We don't all want to get swollen and ugly to compensate for some insecurity.

We want to look healthy, and attractive to the opposite sex.
 

Then you are in wrong place. Hope this help.

...now was that so bad.

i really hate to say this, but Phoenix has actually got a good point about leg training... i'll use myself as an example, i used to do bench press comps and i wanted to keep my weight down so i could competite in a lower weight class. therefore, i only put minimal effeort into my legs coz they don't do sh*t for the bench press, so why add excess unneeded bw? in fact,  Arthur Jones made a point in one of his articles supporting this idea. using a sprinter as an example, he said to whooly develop the legs and glutes, and only maintain a minimal amount of upper body development

[Special Ed]

James,

Just keep training. You're looking great.

So you're a benchpresser, but not a bodybuilder.

[Paul Allen]

James, I missed this, but how much do you weigh?

[James Phoenix]

5'9'' 160 right now.

Yeh if YOU read the subject heading you would see the guy asked for input.........all you had to say was he has to change his posing, then maybe gave advice, but you say its horrific , very good advice

[James Phoenix]

James,

Thank you.

Quite a few have told me so in private messages and irl.

I feel that, I'm giving more people the strength and courage to post pics.
