A Journey: Dead Solid, Perfect - *Bunny* Log

i agree with sbt...the muscle is there and once you start your dieting and toning you will look absolutely amazing...not that you don't now. :)

the only thing that i see that needs minor ...and i do mean minor.....improvement is your calves...but those fawking muscles are genetic i think...they either grow or they don't...so frustrating.. but don't get me wrong they still look good...:). but i think for comp they need slight improvement
Thank you JP... yes i KNOW my calves are NOT genetically gifted :) The size is there, definition... negatory. I WILL have them for this show. :D

No need to walk on egg shells, I asked for critique, I can take it. Thank you for your opinion :D :rose:
 
Buns....


Some will state that definiton is the product of being lean....that you cannot train for that.


Thoughts??

I completely agree to some extent.

...For everything EXCEPT abs & calves (for me).

I'll elaborate more on the calves & briefly state the abs veins were there at 13, 12, 11 @ 9.8 ... the six pack was more visible at 13% then at 9.8%, but my profile pic was the 11-12% and after a few hours of shooting, the flexing made it more pronounced (i.e I feel posing/conditioning will help greatly with the separation).

Circa april 05 photo shoot, I had no calves at 11-12% bf, scale weight lowest at 138 for that shoot. They started to pop when I added in sprinting, stairs and plyo work but STILL not symmterical IMO (training partner phase August 05, pinched at lowest 9.8% scale weight 155 ish lbs ) ... It wasn't until my 16 week bulk (that ended Feb 06 - ran until May 06 then just maintained) that I was ~163 lbs 13% bf, did I see some major improvement. The taped circumference did not change, if at ALL .. just the appearance after I added more frequent calf training.

The defintion when I am at my leanest is wicked cool IMO, just NOT in those two areas. And like Sassy lol I am just being very picky here.
 
Great reply.

Keep in mind as you prepare that bodyfat and a thin layer of water are different things. Blood volume greatly impacts vascularity - more so than a low bodyfat percentage.

You(in general) can be 10% and look much leaner as you can be 8% and look 12% due to water retention.


Abs are one of those bodyparts that will influence how lean you look to others......Abs and forearms.

What creates a 6 pack??


It's being able to see the muscles themselves right??


True.

What greatly influences that is the depth(thickness) of the muscles themselves. Its the depth from the top of the ridges down to the deleniations that yields the etched look. Making these ridges deeper greatly influences how lean you look.

Greater ridges = greated perception of leanness, even at a higher percentage of bodyfat.

The same can apply to calves
 
Good afternoon bunny,

Hope your weekend is going wonderful. I am trying to figure out what you and shadow are debating and well, I can't HEE HEE (too many big words). :)

I am still working on things at this end :qt:

LOL Thank you :) Things will come toegther for you as you take the upper hand & start making the appropriate changes. You are too close out to NOT have a diet from your trainer IMO. You are in good hands with the suggestions given to you and if you feel you want another opinion the ladies will be more than happy to help, just don't let all the advice, if EVER conflicting, confuse you. Then you get overwhelmed and start to panic :). I honestly do not think the advice from the others would be much different than what Shadow has already suggested. IMO these are things you trainer, who sees you face to face should have already implemented, but I by no means am the person you are paying for advice, just make sure you ask her to explain why you are doing what she has you doing so you understand her thought process and it makes sense to you.

Our debate lol :) What do you not understand? Can you give me specifics? I'd like YOU and others to understand :)
