Stay safe opie

PS I'm going to Poland for my gyno surgery, £2k versus £4k+!

Cool - I'd probably do the same thing if I needed surgery. How long will that put you out of training for? I think you have to avoid doing anything strenuous for a couple of months iirc?

MoNkeE · 7 Jun 2013 at 18:26

6 weeks, Deception has had the surgery done so can probably be more use for the post-op info

Somnambulist · 7 Jun 2013 at 20:42

Cool. IF I needed it, I'd be interested in where you're getting it done because obviously you've probably researched this heavily already and I haven't. There's no point jumping to conclusions yet though as hopefully I'll find out in a few weeks, unless the docs useless, but she's the sporty/fitness one, so who knows.

6 weeks isn't too bad, in the grand scheme of things. Could probably time it nicely with a diet/training break anyway.

Remember, you don't get anything on the NHS if you go to the gym. You only get it if you're a lardass and have no interest in improving your appearance beyond surgery and juice diets.

It's a cosmetic condition, so I wasn't expecting anything to be free. Hopefully I just have crap fat distribution genetics though!

Possibly - I have some persistent flub on my stomach that doesn't seem to want to leave. I could get it, but I don't want to turn into a stick insect...

Make sure you show them your pre-diet pics too, as gyno is less obvious at low body fat levels, which obviously isn't how you'll stay when bulking!

Somnambulist · 7 Jun 2013 at 21:42

Well, I plan on trying to bulk as smartly as possible but yeah - I won't start the bulk till I've seen her and I'll give her all the info (plus I need to get a routine sorted out). My fat storage is identical to my dads (he has been diagnosed recently with low test, oh noes!) and they've been 'with me' since my teens (I used to be even fatter then lol). If you go into my log I posted a bunch of pics in less anabolic light from a variety of angles, since I wanted to get a bf% estimation from the what's my BF% thread on Body Recomposition (Lyle McDonald's site).

not posted in here for a while, fell off the train a little bit but getting back on it! lost 5-6lbs and nearly a percent of bodyfat over the last 6 weeks or so:

Glad you posted bro, was wondering how your abs were getting along

BigPecsPeter · 17 Jun 2013 at 09:18

Removed.

Reason: This post was unnecessary and unhelpful.

Is BPP one shredded mofo?

MoNkeE · 17 Jun 2013 at 09:32

No he's a bro science specialist

Would be interested to see pics from BigPecsPeter.

After my recent bulk phase.

You only ever post abs shots

no legs, no back. Maybe pumped up arms if we're "lucky" - otherwise it seems you only judge progress by abs

That goes for most people though, doesn't it? It doesn't seem to matter how tonk somebody gets, if them abs ain't showing real nice then the pics are deemed unimpressive. For this reason alone, I don't think I'd ever post anything with me above 13% or so fat. Yeah, vanity maybe, but people are right to base overall worthwhile progress on how ripped their abs get. It just reflects society's values.
