Good foundation, looking thick. Good job!

bigbaldbulldog · 08-01-2007, 04:56 PM

Thanks guys.. I took pic today and will post them.. I do not think I look a bit different in them and I busted my ass for 16 weeks. I added about 10lbs (225lbs)but I look the same to me.. Give me a few hours to repost updated pictures..

Thank you again

I like your way of thinking, Can I be the first nominated "Gold Thick Member" ?

LOL. I think that could bring a whole other demographic to this site!

bigbaldbulldog · 08-02-2007, 10:15 AM

I appriciate the compliments guys.

It is always nice to be able to see who is giving advice on here. There are guys who give advice based upon what they read and hear making them book smart and then there are guys who give advice based upon personal experience making them street smart and there are some who are both..

When I started lifting I was 135lbs soaking wet. I always thought when I hit 175lbs I would be big enough then I wanted 185lbs then 200lbs then 210 then 220 now my goal is 235-240lbs..

I still see that 135lb kid when I look in the mirror and I do not realize how big I really am till I see pictures of me next to other ordinary people.. I will do my best to make everyone prouder and I hope smarter by having me here.. More pics to follow

mikeswift · 08-02-2007, 10:48 AM

It's an honor to have you here as a member bro. Keep up the good work on the board and in the gym.

let's see the new pic brother.

bigbaldbulldog · 08-02-2007, 10:49 AM

Here are 2 pictures I took. Like I said I am almost 225lbs in these pics but I do not look different infact I look softer, smoother and less detailed. Only thing different in these pics is that I came off of trenadrol and hoped on some other stuff.. ALL feedback is welcome.

mikeswift · 08-02-2007, 12:16 PM

you definitely look bigger to me bro.

Crazymank · 08-02-2007, 12:20 PM

so, did you not shave for the 2 months either? haa haa

looking thick bro,

bigbaldbulldog · 08-02-2007, 01:58 PM

Since I would be guessing at my bodyfat, what do you think it is?

pewntang · 08-02-2007, 06:07 PM

15% would be a good guess...

mikeswift · 08-02-2007, 06:42 PM

I would say somewhere around 12-13%

depends on a lot of things like for instance if you do a lot of ab work you could appear leaner than you are. I on the other hand rarely if ever train abs so I don't look as lean until I get down to under 10% but if I trained my abs more I could appear just as lean at a higher BF

mcgaret · 08-02-2007, 09:08 PM

I'd say LESS then 15%. To me you look leaner in the 2nd pic.(NOT SMALLER)
It's funny how you can look different at different times of the day. I swear, after
a good session w/the wife I get a great pump and look huge. (if only I could hold it
for more then 5 minutes) Bro., you gotta get that smile fixed!! LOL

pewntang · 08-02-2007, 10:37 PM

your second pic you look more lean.... good job man..

bigbaldbulldog · 08-03-2007, 10:35 AM

Thanks guys.. I never do abs.. I find that other excercise hit them wihtout direct stimulation.. I am glad you think I look leaner since I gained 10 lbs so I guess I was doing something right.

The pump we get from different times of the day are def weird.. I'm looking for a good dentist to get my teeth fixed then a good optimoligist to get my eyes fixed..

I was talking to my dietician the other day and he is setting me up with a few changes in my diet to adjust for some more fat loss through diet alone. Our goal is to bring my bodyweight to 235lbs at or just under 10% by October.. I last competed in 1997 as a middleweight and this time I want to come in as a superheavy. If I can not hit that goal weight I will hold off till another time.

We figure if the show is summer 2008 we have plenty of time to add lean muscle mass to my frame and I should weigh in around 225-230 if we plan this out right and only need to drop about 5-7%bf for the show meaning I will lose about 10-15lbs fat and about 5lbs of muscle.. we will see.

Thanks again for the encouragement saying I am on the right track and I will keep you guys posted as things "progress"...

Thank you all, BBB

bigbaldbulldog · 08-26-2007, 08:38 PM

I plan on posting another pic of me at the end of August.. I refocused and I am back on track.. Bigger, leaner and thicker.
