Stockjockey Pic

Heres a pretty crappy pic that was taken of me last weekend. I never really get pictures of myself with my shirt off so I figured I'd throw this up here, regardless of the bad angle. Obviously not posing here.
This was taken after being in the woods for 2 nights consuming nothing but heinekins, Jim Beam and hot dogs....certainly not tip top shape. I feel like I look alot bigger after hitting the gym 3 or 4 days in a row. I'm not really happy with this...but you guys tell me what you think.
I'm weighing about 190-193 here and is the result of a cut down from 205-208ish.

Crap...upload not working. Will try again tomorrow.

Shut up and lift

If the pic you are trying to post is the one in your AV, I must say you are looking pretty brolic.  Keep it up!

What a stud!

Add me on facebook!

Thanks alot everyone! I've definately been working pretty hard, at least on my diet anyway.

I'm at work now so I can't attempt to upload. Will try tonight.

Shut up and lift

wish i could see the picture.  get the siHt up there stock!   wow.. we're EXACTLY the same haha.. i started at 207, and have cut down to 191.   your abs seem to be a bit MORE prominent than mine though.  props to you

My name is FOX.... and I approve this message.

I don't think you and Stock Jockey are the same.  He's from New York, and lives the life of a baller because of this.

You're from Texas.  Quite frankly, I'm surprised you can even read.

Great physique! keep it up man!

How's the training?

5'8.1"
Age = 20 
started in February 16th 2007: 58kg (127.6lbs)
current : around 79-80kg (173.8lb-176lb)

I just tried uploading the full version of the picture again...I dont know why its not working. But yes, it is the same as my avatar pic so you guys can get an idea there. Thanks for the compliments and encouragement!

Fox: I know we've been about the same for awhile. I think your a little stronger than me though. Do you have any post cut pics?

Tru: To be honest, my training borderline sucks. I dont have a set routine and basically dont feel as though I work my ass off when I'm there. I do many of the same exercises that I was doing a year ago, but try my best to do them a little faster and heavier. I pretty much start each body part with 2 compound exercises and finish up with 2 isolations. I never get that sore feeling anymore....which is a feeling I really miss. You know what I mean, when you could feel the progress you were making everyday just by how sore your entire body was? That was the sh1t!

I really should spend some time researching different training programs/styles to make the most of what I'm doing....I just can't seem to find the time. I thought about getting a trainer for a month or two just to learn some new things first hand, but never went through with it.

I will tell you that I probably didnt do any direct ab work from last October until about May. Even as of late June I had pretty low BF but not the abs you see here. I know it goes against alot of training principles, but I started POUNDING my abs 3-4 times a week. Knowledgeable people say thats too much and you need recovery time but I'll tell you what....I saw a prominent 6 pack within 4 weeks.

The area that I really excel in and work hard is my diet. My diet is pretty on point and I barely ever stray from it. It drives my friends/girlfriend crazy...but hey its what I love. Theres no better feeling to me than sitting next to a fat disgusting pig complaining about their weight while eating a cheeseburger (with lowfat mayo because they are trying to lose weight) while I indulge in my grilled salmon and broccoli.

You must be pretty Deebo yourself at 5'8 173. Whats your BF approx?

Shut up and lift

I see.. I recall from your posts that you are pretty strict when it comes to dietting. Keep up the good work!

As far as training is concerned, I think we have some routines that you could try out here at DBB.

Well, a 5'8 173 guy is nowhere as big as a Deebo lol. I would want to gain another 8 pounds, then probably start to think about cutting. If I had to make a guess of my BF, I would say around 13-14%.
What's your goal?

I thought you had very low BF for some reason. Either way...you're making some great progress yourself. 
My goal is to be around 205 at the same BF I am now. Thats no easy feat, as you know....putting on 10-15lbs of pure muscle is serious business. Good luck!

considering myself, fox, and stock all have around tha same stats, i think we should compete with eachother to see who can gain tha most weight this winter...good weight.  Id like to be shredded around 210 by nxt summer

I want in on that competition.  I like the idea of having a private comp, for only four or five people.  Then we can have everyone on DBB judge who did the best.  September 1st-April 1st.  That's 6 months to gain serious weight.

You think I'm going to be able to bulk much in that time period either?  That's what makes it more fun.

Ill participate with you guys.. I just started bulking.. I was around the same wait as stalkey a couple weeks ago.. I really am not sure now I seem to fluxuate between 198 and 201..  

If I just get really puffy and fat will that disqualify me?  Or does my physique have to actually look better? LoL kidding.

Cool, so far we have Rollingstone, IBB, and Myself.  If Fox and Stock-o wanna join, they have until September first to tell me.

I love how you so conveniently left out manchild... must be scared or something.

IBB good to see you! I'd like to see some pics of you at 190....you must have looked awesome.

I'm in for the competition, though I wont start bulking until mid September because I'm going to be in Cape Cod for a week at the beginning of the month.

Rolling, you want to be 210 and ripped by next year? You're going to have to bulk to like 230 for this competition! haha...good luck man.

stone, yes. i think it'd be alot of fun.  you're stronger than me stone when it comes to deadlifts and squats.

stock,  i'll have to see if i have any recent picture from the cut.  i'm kinda stuck at right around 10%.  you can see the abs, but they're no-where near as impressive as yours are.   this last week i've been REAL lazy and eaten whatever i wanted, as much as i wanted.

and frank... that little texas/new york   illiterate comment was just UN-necessary haha.

Really looking great Stockjockey!!!

Lean and hard, and solid...

I love it when you talk dirty to me

She's a classy broad.  Incapable of getting dirty, let alone talking it.
