why did u give up on getting to 240? and damn ur looking pretty good at 195-200. it's weird that u could have over 16in. arms at that weight and others at the same weight could have less than 15in. (even at the same or less bodyfat)

well I was at around 215 or so... I mean last summer I was pretty fat.. I have some pictures I could scan for you.. I had gotten to a dirty bulked 215 or so the beginning of 08 and mid 07.. the amount of muscle just changed. You will notice that after you bulk some of your measurements may be way above others not to mention my shoulder width is only like 53 inches. I am narrow, I have a very odd shape so I have been told. I could actually look really big without a shirt around 185lbs and 5% BF.. But my arms would fall to 15 inches and I wouldn't fit my clothes tight like I do now. I stopped worrying about 240 because honestly bro.. I took a **** load of juice, Pro hormones and it really doesn't even seem to make a difference even with an intake of 6,000 calories per day. So I stopped worrying about it, I honestly don't even know what I weigh right now. I know I am back and above 200lbs I am not as lean anymore as I was when I was 195. I really don't want to see what I weigh lol, I don't really care. Measurements are this right now Arms : 16 1/2 Chest: 43 inches Shoulder width : 53 inches If I expand my lats my chest width goes to 46 inches Legs: 23inches Calves: 15 inches Forearms 13 1/4 Neck 17 inches Waist 31 3/4 inches Anyways got to get back to work! Not a huge change in measurements, actually they are probably about the same except for my waist.

I eat like a mad man, I just don't have the genetics. My boy is huge but he only eats twice a day and maybe 3,000 calories.. His arms were up to 20 inches.. He broke his leg now though so he is out of the gym and they shrunk to 18.. But for real though his training sucked.. It's over training and his diet sucks.. But he can take juice and his body reacts strong, even if he isn't taking it he can still blow up just not as much, he has only worked out for 3 years. I mean he was up to 365 on the bench for 3 reps. So it all comes down to genetics, Now if you put him next to me without the shirt he looks huge but then he also doesn't look as good because he is like 15% BF.

yea thats the thing...regardless of how much muscle u have its not really impressive (or at least "asthetically pleasing") unless ur below 12% or so. thats crazy that his arms shrunk a whole 2 inches that quickly

Incline Bench: 135 x 5 185 x 5 195 x 5 205 x 5 210 x 5 Lat Pulls: 140 x 8 160 x 8 180 x 7 190 x 6 Single arm cable rows: 80 x 8 90 x 8 100 x 8 Preacher Curls: 70lbs x 10 100lbs x 8 90lbs x 6 80lbs x 7 Reverse curls EZ bar: 50 X 10 60 X 10 Then I did one other work out don't feel like explaining it. Also: Tbar rows on lat pull machine: 90 x 10 110 x 10 120 x 10 140 x 10 Oh I forgot to mention!! I maxed out on incline bench 3 weeks ago. I did 255lbs max! Not shabby at all!! I was really suprised that I did it!! Actually I was extatic lol. But I since have lost some strength on the incline  That's why I incorped 5 x 5 into my routine 2 - 3 times per week on the incline. I figure I will be at 230 x 5 in about 2 - 3 weeks hopefully.

mmmmmmmm...... on accutane got some horrible acne finally just getting rid of it all.. I gave up on being serious in body building.. I mean I did for the past 2 months or so i just did not care I liked how I looked.. But now I don't like how I look so I am eating anything I can get my hands on lmao. JUST EAT EAT EAT EAT! lol. Well anyway I guess I am progressing in some areas but I am declining in others.. I am for the most part satisfied, I know what I need to do to hit goals. Unfortunatly AAS does nothing to me my body does not respond but PH's do wonders. I said that before and I stick to it. I am going a different route soon.

IBB Good to see ya still around...sometimes its good to take some time off...I know it helps me to take time off from tuime to time. I took almost 2 months off earlier this year...its kinda cool cause you get newbie gains the first few weeks. BTW...I've been getting great gains since I seriously started training....up from 179 to 192 . Keep your head up brother...you'll get back into it!
Current supps: Cell Tech,Superpump 250,Animal pak,ON 100% whey
