Ok, here they are, still didn't attain the level of conditioning I was hoping for, but I can live with them, and it was a learning experience, so I enjoyed it. I'm using them for the Gold's Gym Challange and Body For Life this Year. Pulled six out of the stack of 28 I did to put up here. Not necissaryly the best, but they are the most revealing of my strengths and weaknesses so would like some critiques from my bros... and thanks for the input on the last one's guys.
I skipped on the lasix, and just cut my sodium as low as possible and carbed up for 72 hours. I weighed in at an even 200 ibs, and probably should have tried to come in around 190'ish. Sorry for the low quality of the scans, they don't do the few cuts I actually have any justice. Where the hell are my abes!?

I put the first one in because my dad is in the pic... he was shaking his head as he went by, saying... "Damn...it's only 8:00 am an already the boy isn't right....." He thinks bodybuilding is pretty homosexual.

Back shots next, typical white-boy genetics... wide waist and a fat ass. I was not happy with the lack on conditioning in my glutes and hams... maybe I shouldn't have hit the pizza so hard on my carb ups. haha Can't figure out why my calves look so small, they tape at 18" right now. Oh well.

Anyway, the plans for the rest of the year are to do a clean bulk. Keep my bodyfat where it is, and put on at least 10 ibs of lbm.

It must the the crappy scanner at my mom and dad's house... because I'm comparing the originals to the one's online and the orange tint isn't on the photos. I look a little orange, but not really, from the pro-tan. I have to have alot of paint to look dark, my natural skin color is about the same as a white sheet of paper (My ethnicity is Czechloslovakian). Actually, my hair looks brown in the photos too, but its actually blonde.

 

[Deleted member 33117]

Hmmmmm.... I'm definately not happy with the quality of the scans. If any of the bros I regularly chat with on here happen to have a better scanner and want to put one or two up I'd be willing to mail a picture or two just to have a picture on here with alot more detail.

 

[Serea]

Quads are looking excellent.

 

[powerforward]

quads look good, nice stomach vaccumm.

 

[Exodus]

[gonelifting]

Looks good to me. bad scanner or not. good goals you got too. you can`t go wrong with what you`re doing. keep it up, bro 3 1/2 years damn.

 

[Deleted member 33117]

Thanks bros.
Goneliftin, you've done pretty damn good yourself too.
Exodus, right, it helps that my first training partner was a competitive powerlifter. I was doing heavy squats and deads my frist week workingout. Really I have to thank him for that now. I think alot of my back development still comes as a result of the deadlifts.

[ffknight84]

looking good bro, nothing like a clean bulk to stay ripped !!!

 

[The Red Dragon]

So this is the famous body those chicks in your college were drooling over. Good work man.

 

[makedah]

Niiiice....

 

[Peckz]

Looking good bro! With that mass you could afford to cut a little bit more. Maybe its the photos? Its hard to tell sometimes.
Anyway good work.

 

[Deleted member 33117]

Peckz, yeah, I'm starting a clean bulking phase as we speak. I think I can still drop another 4 or 5 ibs of bf during the first 6 or 7 weeks of it though. The original pictures do look a bit leaner, but still I agree, I could get a little leaner and maintain it if I really watch my diet. I've bulking before while loosing a couple ibs of bodyfat so I know I can do it again....but damn its so much more fun to get at least one pizza day a week, and maybe a little ice cream before bedtime. Everything is a compromise.

 

[Deleted member 33117]

RD, anywho, I'm thinking of hooking up with my psycho ex-grilfriend. I saw her on my way to class today, and stopped to chat with her. We talked for awhile, and she asked if it was ok for her to call me later and I said yes.

 

[Backlash]

psycho ex-grilfriend

It's obviously not for any of us to give you personal advice, but be careful dude. I've seen lots of things like that turn sour, especially if she's only interested again cause you're looking so good.

 

[Devastation]

good work brotha

 

[Deleted member 33117]

Backlash, naw, I've broken up with her 4 times for at least a month each. I've known her for 2 years. She was dating me when I did my first show and was alot more ripped, and actually During my first bulking cycle, I looked like a pig from all the crap I ate and the roid-bloat. She does prefer me leaner though. Actually, I'm only thinking about it, anyway I talked to her yesterday. She didn't try to get me back this time (I broke up with her about 11 weeks ago) and was really an asshole to her because I wanted her to go away for good, even though I am actually in love with her. She was pulling her psycho stuff again, and I was sick of the drama. Anyway, she was diagnosed with cancer two weeks later, and hasn't been able to work or anything. She had 3 cysts removed 5 weeks ago and they are going to have to perform surgery again because they found more. Honestly, I feel bad about my timing and I want to be with her through this. If nothing else because she needs the support. She has no family here right now (her parents moved to another state) and is trying to go to college so doesn't want to leave.

re: psyco gf

as my dad always said "feminine logic is a contradiction of terms"

 

[Deleted member 33117]

rnch, you have no idea man. Shall I quot a couple friends of mine? "Bro... she is going to kill you one day... seriously you do know that right?" "Man... I've told you this at least 20 times... you need to drop her crazy ass like a bad habit... " Its not like she doesn't have a good side. She just isn't always the person I feel in love with.

 

[Backlash]

Cool man. I figured we didn't have the whole story.

Why would she want to go to school in College Station? There aren't any good ones there... J/K My dad got a degree from UT.

 

[Deleted member 33117]

OH my god, its like half her wardrobe is maroon or has the tamu logo on it. Alot of people here are like that. Personally I don't get into it that much. I'm concerned about learning, and getting my degree, not school spirit.

 

[Deleted member 33117]

I've got a friend I'm kind of seeing at the moment (I say friend because she actually has a serious boyfriend back home... go figure) and she says she understands my feelings here, but thinks I should just be friends with her to help her through this... with the added statement "well, I'm not trying to tell you what to do, but if I were you I would stay away from her. Move and get your phone # changed." Oh, you may notice at this point that allof my relationships are pretty messed up.

 

[rnch]

check your pm's again, bro

got any of the "before" photos for us to see?

 

[Deleted member 33117]

Hahha not with me. I had to drink 2 gallons of gatoraid and a gallon of milk during the 24 hour period before them. I had my waist up to 42" so its not pretty. I basically faked the pictures by bloating myself, so this wouldn't be helpful to the board. Everyone whould think I just did a miracle cycle. None-the-less it increases my chances of winning money quite a bit. The manager of the gold's I train out loved them though and thinks I'll probably get some money of out this.
