OcUK Health Seekers: Post your progress pics

Right, I can't really bring myself to do a photoshoot like some of you guys

, but here's a quick arm still from a DL form check vid I made today. Just coming to the end of a 12 week bulk and am pretty pleased with the gains I've made in that time, both in strength and size, as it's my first in a year due to a broken knee!

My first thought!

Looking solid though, nice work.

Yep set up in the attic until I can find the time to get the garage properly cleared out! Big , well built old house though so the joists can take it no problem for the time being....so long as I don't drop the bar.

No I have found it now. http://www.bodybuilding.com/exercises/

Feel it is a lot easier to use than exrx.

Nice link, I've been wanting to start going to the gym and read the threads on here regularly but have no idea what all these different workouts people mention are and that should help immensely.

End of week 1 of my contest diet

Buffman · 10 Feb 2011 at 17:54

Just took this pic for a quick comparison since I've started cutting in around january, ~6 weeks difference in the pics. (~210lbs > ~193) @ 6ft
start:

now:

A bit bloated in this picture as I've just ate a lot of christmas cake, but starting to see more definition on stomach and obliques and lost a lot of fat off my lower back.

By summer I want to see some better oblique definiton and some lower abs, I've given myself enough time to do it

Looking better just now anyways than I will be at the end of the week once I've been out drinking friday and saturday

I bet half those muscles are just from getting everything up there into the attic!!

BennyC · 10 Feb 2011 at 18:06

Some very nice work there *Edit* Craig, even! lol

unfortunately the first place we want fat to disappear from is often the last!

Ha no doubt. Multiple trips up a ladder with a 100litre rucksack full of plates did make me feel like a big man though

@craig, great progress there, looks like the love handles have been totally destroyed. Will be joining you on a cut towards the end of the month I think, as I've chubbed up quite a bit over the last few months of bulking. Not really fussed though, nobody sees me with my top off during the winter, except the occasional lucky lady...and by the time I'm undressed, it's already too late for her

Okay, I've stepped up (very bravely I'll add!) and got the following pics of my lower body:

View of both Legs+Calf

Detail of my Right Quad

I'm a hairy creature, but you might just be able to see the splitting on my Quads which I'm quite proud of, still needs work though.

I'll persevere with pics of my Upper Body - I haven't had much luck yet with my Phone on getting a good picture out - but I still have to trim down my Stomach.

Been a while since I posted anything in this thread so I took some pics last night. Finally getting back into the swing of things after taking some time out over xmas.

Freefaller · 11 Feb 2011 at 11:09

Nice progress Lie! Lean and mean!

Crowort · 11 Feb 2011 at 11:25

Thou you have weird hair around your nipples, do you shave it like that or something?

LiE · 11 Feb 2011 at 11:28

no it just grows a little thicker there. I used to wax my body but it took too much time and Freefaller told me off

And people wonder why GD thinks this forum is full of gayers

Looking ace there though Lie, hoping I can get to similar BF% myself during my cut

Freefaller · 11 Feb 2011 at 13:13

Nobody has a chest wig like I do - so you're comparatively bald compared to me!

I like being a hairy bugger, its much more badass dontyouknow? I have pretty decent coverage but my hairs pretty fair (blonde) so hard to tell

. Still though, since I've started weight lifting I've gained hairy shoulders/traps and its ALMOST linking up with my chest hair to make a kind of wife-beater of fluff

. Testosterone much?

LiE · 11 Feb 2011 at 14:53

I blame weight training on increased hair growth, must be all the protein. None of my 3 brothers or my dad have much hair.
