I'd say 8-10% Mark.

I wish, but I think that may be a little low. Not saying you're wrong. A few guys on BB.com seemed to think between 11-13%. I have no idea what to believe though.

There's only a few guys on BB I listen too, the rest are trolls. A few of them said I weighed 180lbs and was 13% bf.

It's always tough to say but when I first saw the picture I thought of around ~10%.

I would guess around 10% Mark.

Like i mentioned in the other thread im changing up my routine. I am 4months in after a 1 year break.
I run way too much for work but its my only option for now, so i am upping my calories to try and pack on some weight.
I have added an inch to my tiny arms and have put on almost 10lbs.


I havent done dead lifts before, I was able to do 185x6 but on the last few, i wasnt able to keep my back arched at the bottom. so i am backing off for a week or two and practicing form with less weight then try to go up.

No one else is doing a good job of keeping this updated.

I had a short day in the weight room, but notables were

Deadlift: Finished with 405x5 before cutting my hand. I would have gotten 8 reps pretty easy

Leg Press: 900x8. It feels good to finally start getting a bit of strength back from when I used to power lift.

Before I went to SAR this weekend I pulled up 550lbs on deadlift and hit 405X6 at the end of my squat workout. I'm going to pull 600lbs soon

I hope you do man. I never got to 6, but then again I never got to tackle it healthy. 575 was my PR.

I had tests all last week so my workouts and diet went to ****. I'm trying to get that back on track so hopefully I'll have something worthy to post up soon.

im not really on any kind of work out routine. i started with p90x and fell off the wagon but kept eating decent.

just from cutting back on portion size, the amount of beer i drink and i replaced all beef with turkey i have goine from 212 to 192 so far. ive hit a little wall now and dont think i will lose any more without some physical activity. i usually gain 5 over the weekend and spend all week getting back where i was now lol. but 20 lbs just from changing the eating habits was cool enough though! in college i was always on a bulking routine, and thought i was one of those guys who cant get fat. i was wrong lol. drop the working out all at once and all of that muscle went to lard.
