Nice!!! a couple of questions why did you switched out flat bench for incline bench?? Why didn't you brought up the weight for squats it's very close to your last 2x15 squat?

Got to say that is impressive for the shoulder press... are you doing it standing overhead style strict or more of a push press???

i like to switch up a few things once in a while.  the deads and squats will ALWAYS stay there. ... but i just wanted to try some incline for 6 workouts this time, hit the triceps a bit more with that.  i dunno.. i'm weird like that haha.

The reason for taking it VERY slow with squats is b/c i hurt my knee a while back.  i'm re-learning squats. and progressing 5 lbs at a time.  yes.. i am moving up very slow, but i don't care what anyone thinks.  the pain that i felt from improper form was horrendous. i seriously thought i was going to have surgery.  Brihead recommended I start very low, and just progress extremely slowly as I am with the squats focusing strictly on form.   the weight will get up there eventually.

Thanks. the shoulder press is sitting this time. not standing.  with the barbell.    this is how i maxed 200 lbs as well.  and no.. i'm not cheating, i bring the bar down between my nose and almost to mouth level, and then press it up.   my shoulders are getting ridiculously big.  traps too. i'm lovin' it.

how much do you weigh? and how old r u?

you definately have some traps.  very nice ones. 

i guess i had a little bit of a gap between my pecs.. but not much.  they just became more and more full.  i started off flat chested of course.  i was a skinny RAIL!

17 and weigh on average around 170, about what you started off at lol. Although you have/had a lower body fat and more muscle

i weighed 155 when i was 17.  stayed that way for several years.    just eat big, and lift big.  you'll gain slowly.

what's ur bodyfat?

around 1.5 to 2 years ago... I had a trainer at the gym measure my BF with calipers and they did the big huge ratio on paper.      My BF was 4.6%  I weighed around 170 lbs at the time.    My abs were just a GLORIOUS sight haha

thanks dude.  compliments are what inspire me.  so.. you are inspiring me .

I don't want to get too much bigger.  My goal is to get to 210 lbs.  STAY there for 1 month or so.. let my bones get used to that much weight on them.  make that my happy place.  and then.. CUT.  My goal for a cut is low 190's... but i have no idea where i will end up

thanks again

Ohh I must of missed that when you posted that... didn't want to look like I was attacking you my fault...

I'll give you credit doing deadlifts right after squats is tough man i'm going to do that for the next round of hst!!!

What surprises me is that you loev to do some isolations but not one ab exercise lol... squats and deadifts work it good but im surprised lol... but anyways im using you as an motivation now dude so keep it up !!!

rofl. thanks guys..   but i'm not THAT special

yea, not much point in doing ab exercises right now.
if you think about it, why do you work out your abs?
to get them stronger, and bigger.

well, you really won't see them very much, if at all right now with my bf% and since i'm bulking.  but you can bet that i will be doing some hardcore ab work once i start cutting with the cardio as well

the abs are partially worked during compound lifts like squats, and deads.  not very much, but your core IS flexed a bit to help stabilize.

I just need someone similar to motivate me... you are the same height and before working out you said you was skinny same thing with me lol... your up there and that's whats motivating my ass lol...
