Will you ever be satisfied with your size?

It also works for how lean. I got down to about 6% bf @ 190lbs through the summer and now I look at pictures I think leaner leaner leaner.

The day I lose my drive to be bigger and leaner is the day I give up weights (or die)!

I have kind of mixed feelings about this. During the off time I'm always thinking I want to be BIGGER,BIGGER,BIGGER. But then Rugby comes back around and I know that aroun 200-215 is probably the best place for me in the game. I'm stronger than most backs and still just as fast as ever. Much more weight would kill my endurance and foot speed!

 

[thelion2005]

Yes, but I want more quality. By that I don't mean a quick lean and dry look, but a more etched look that stays with the body.

I think I can get this with more reps using heavy weights .... 20 reps for example.

I thought I would be satisfied at 185...nope...The thing is, unless you were at a higher wieght earlier in life, you have no idea how you are going to look with another 10-15 pounds on your frame. Once there, it doesn't seem all that different from what you were before.

I think most bros always strive to be bigger, leaner and stronger, but thre is nothing wrong with that. Those are healthy ambitions...The ones that take it to extremes are the ones that I worry about.

For me? Kevin Faulk, New England Patriots third down back, 5-8, 202 pounds, clearly under 10% BF. Fast, strong, athletic and healthy.

That is my goal.

Steve there is no doubt Kevin Faulk can pack a punch he is a former LSU tiger.

Was thinking it was a trick question You say you just want a little then you get a little then you want more and more...Hell i am gone, got to go workout...Take note this is how you get big not typing posts lol...

Maybe do a poll on who's got big finger muscles.....peace

I would like to lose 40 lbs of fat AND muscle.

 

[slat1]

im satisifed now...
but that doesnt mean i wont strive for more.

Same with me. I have been clean for a while and I like the way I look. I'm about 230 with 7 to 8% bf (i need to get it tested. I'm REAL lean right now).
At this time I think I look the best I have ever looked.
My goals are to just bring up certain areas over time EX. lats, pec and delt density.

*That said. I wouldn't mind 260 or 270 shredded. At the end of June I was 245 at 7.5%.
Only time will tell

 

[dirkadabolin]

Yea - I think once I hit my goal all be happy. I'm 195lbs now and I feel so small. I'll just have to keep going until I hit it, 30 cycles later - 315bls 8% bf.

 

[Apexx]

Probably not. When I look in the mirror, one of two thoughts pop into my head. One, I'm too small and need to bulk up. Or two, I'm holding too much fat and need to cut.
