lol seconded
LOL no they're just my normal devil eyes..! I always get bad red-eye for some reason, no contacts though!You got some crazy contacts in Rich?
Yeah I know what you mean, that's kinda what I'm aiming for, not going to focus particularly on any parts at this stage, just tightening up diet and doing basic compound, bench, press, squat, deadlift, chin-ups etc, plus gonna try and drag my sorry ass out of bed in the mornings and do some HIIT-style sprints at the park round the corner. Should be interesting to see the results after a couple of months, and hopefully if I get into a routine will keep it up beyond that as wellYou've got a great base to work on Rich (you handsome ******). However not only concentrating on losing your BF you should try and develop your upper body more and get a bit of a taper on. At the moment you're a little too "uniform" if you see what I mean. Check out my pics in the archived thread to see what I mean. Don't know if there's any point in posting mine again as I haven't changed much since. Might do some updates this weekend and see...
I have no idea what you mean by that (I really am a novice, any muscles that I do or do not have are by pure chance, with a few past heavy-lifting/high movement jobs)
Do you mean my upper... stomachy area is overly developed, and I should work on some exercises for my lower stomach..? Legs?
Ultra is being far too kind
It looks like youve worked your stomach and nothing else pretty much, youve got decent abs but they look kind of silly with nothing up top to balance them out. You might find you can totally drop ab work from your routine and swap in more compound exercises and youll probably be happier with your shape.
tbh it doesnt look like he has worked his abs that much, just has very low bf% to start with. the abs are not thick at all, just abs, showing like any other muscle he has due to low bf.
Sounds like i'm taking some abuse
But seriously, it's probably just low bf/abs that everyone has, i've been going to the gym on and off for a couple of years and always try to get in some situps but nothing particularly special.
I'm reading through GordyR's sticky at the moment, but can anyone give a very brief set set of exercises/routines I should perhaps concentrate on doing?
I just want general overall fitness / to be a bit bigger, more defined etc..
Just squat
