9 out of 10. Progress? 5 years ago I was 35% bodyfat at 240 lbs. Now I am 220 at 9% (5'9") 19" arms, 18.5" calves, 52" chest,32" waist, 29.5" thighs. I've benched 455 for 3, do hack squats with 22 plates, stiff leg deads with 425 etc etc.
So I've made a bit of progress.

i don't get enough protein though, or sleep so effort- i get a 5
progress... i could barely bench the bar when i started and now i'm at 170 raw/205 in a shirt... so i'm giving myself a 7.

Hince my 9. Other bodybuilders who know me say I train like an animal, my workouts are sick, that they couldn't handle my diet etc, however as you said you can ALWAYS put more effort into it, so I won't give myself a 10.

C'mon ...lets have some more replies. A lot of you only answered half the question.
In the last few months my efforts probably been about 3/10 and it's caused me to actually lose weight (I'm trying to gain not lose). Anyway starting yesterday i'mgonna try and put in at least a 7/10 every day.

Diet and exercise : 9 out of 10.
I always keep a clean diet (except for the occasional planned cheat day) and I exercise faithfully.
The only reason I am not 10 out of 10 is because sometimes I feel as though I can push myself harder during my workouts AND I think that I should plan Even Better for my food intake during the day.

diet/exercise id give a 7, because my diet has been shitty ever since i ran out of protein powder a few weeks ago (i buy in 25kg bags of WPI, so it takes a bit of time to organise) but my workouts are some of the most intense in the gym, no problem
as per my progress, well, being natural, you dont get anywhere fast, BUT 9 or so months ago i decided to drop bodyfat...so i went from 26-28% bf down to 10-12 without losing muscle mass. so yeah, progress has been good. im a bit stuck now, though. might have to give this whole roid business a try...

Map out your diet and routine, and some of us will take a look at it, if you wish to continue to try and make progress naturally.
I was benching 315 and doing deep squats with 405, both for reps, at a bodyweight of 200 lbs as a natty, with only a year of training under my belt, so its not impossible to get reasonably big, strong and lean as a natty.

Right, knowing the calories and micronutrient breakdown makes it much easier to work with. LoL
Break down your training split also.
