just me again, hanging out 😁
19 years old, 5'11", 178 lbs

Same story here... 6'2", about 195 lbs... diet is basically pure junk food most days but I'm still making progress somehow 😁 hitting kickboxing 3x a week, plus running and some calisthenics/gym stuff... my photos are also pretty terrible lol http://imageshack.us/g/706/dsc00032yr.jpg/

Here’s another shot from my end—hopefully this one offers a much clearer perspective...

Standing at about 6'3" and weighing 203 lbs... still working on getting that definition dialed in... 🙂

Unfortunately, winter has finally caught up with me—pneumonia really knocked me sideways recently. I ended up losing about 18 pounds only to gain back 22 just within a single month. It’s been a bit of an ugly cycle, I suppose...

The goal was to get beach-ready, which—if I'm being honest—is still very much a work in progress...

With a little bit of discipline, some organization, and enough effort, you can really work wonders in just a few months... 😁

Hey everyone, I could really use some advice. I've been feeling pretty down lately, and honestly, it shows—I've picked up some extra fat around my sides and right on my John Doe. I'm hoping you guys can give me some tips on how to burn this off and maybe build up some core strength? To be fair, I gained about 10 or 15 pounds because of that long, brutal winter—I was basically stuck inside all day just eating out of boredom, so it’s not exactly a shock that I put on some weight... Thanks in advance for any help! (I'll be quoting your suggestions in a separate thread for photo feedback)

Two months into my gym routine now 🙂

John Doe

Back

Arms/shoulders

Jane Doe

Since you guys were asking for a tricky puzzle, here’s one in a more "relaxed" format! 🙂





Looking at the photos, I can tell I still need to tone up my Jane Doe, lower back, obliques, and just overall core stability. My goal is that light, toned muscle look. Does anyone have specific advice on what else I should be doing? Diet-wise, I'm hovering around 70% clean eating and 30% junk food every single day. It's kind of a mix, though I definitely overdo it sometimes. I haven't been able to get more strict because I just can't keep up with the intensity at the gym. I do a lot of cardio, but not much strength training. Could that be the issue? Should I focus more on anaerobic workouts since I don't have much extra weight to lose?

Here’s a shot showing just the veins on my John Doe. They aren't nearly as prominent as they used to be, mostly because I've packed on about 25 pounds since I started hitting the gym consistently.

Back when I was playing soccer, those veins used to stretch pretty far down my midsection, almost halfway down both sides.

I don't have a better shot where you can actually see my shoulders clearly. 😁



Man, it's pretty blurry... I guess I just don't have a steady hand like Vasili Zajcev. 😁

not even looking for advice, just kinda flexing here 😬 🥳

last summer, I was 125lbs

To get things started😬
I went ahead and trimmed away all those extra bits on the sides.😁
That red is just such a bold, fiery shade.

So, I’ve been hitting the gym pretty hard for about 4 months now—specifically chasing that Brazilian Butt Lift vibe... I mean, I’ve always stayed active, but let’s be real, I totally neglected my glutes before 🙂 now they are basically my entire personality! lol. The top two pics are from when I first started this journey, and the bottom two are where I am today. Obviously, there is still a ton of work left to do, but honestly? I’m feeling so pumped about how my body is finally starting to shape up...

I hesitated for a second, I guess, but honestly? I don't really care anymore. 😁

Taken with a digital camera, obviously. 😳😁

I don't know about you guys, but I'm totally lost here.

🙂😛😁

So, here’s the goal: get back in the gym and finally pack on some muscle again. This is my current state, though I suppose I hope the photos look a bit better in a few months:

Weak back area

Glutes need some lifting

Arms

Abs

abs



and back



making slow progress 🙂

It’s an older photo, though the quality isn't great. I suppose I need to start rebuilding my collection..

I took a bit of a tumble onto my back ☕ ... and now my feet are completely numb 😍
