do y'all take pics of your progress? 
hoto: i do a pic every friday and keep stored on my phone. every few weeks i like to compare. i wish i would have done measurements too from the start but never did.
did a comparison from june 1 to current and have impressive gains in my back that got me stoked. its muuuuuuch wider now and shoulders are getting bigger. i started working out last Aug and was 5'9" 160lbs now im 5'9" 139lbs. all of my weight was in my belly (damn you beer) i leaned out and now im just working on bulking clean/lean

im a smaller guy so getting low BF is easier. staying under 10% is a lot of discipline, i dont stray from my diet too often
5'9" 140lbs. working on getting to 150-155lbs but keeping under 10%BF

i see, might be pretty hard to gain muscle with such a low BF.

im def gaining but it is a slower process. my fitness goal was to lose belly fat and ive done that. if it takes me a year to gain another 10lbs of lean muscle its fine as long as i stay lean.
whats crazy is i eat a lot. i eat more than most people i know. in fact im eating right now

i have never done a proper pull up in my life, altho my lats are very developed i just never done it. use to be a fat kid so pull up just seems like mission impossible.

I did pullups all the time. My usual back work out started with getting to 75 as fast as possible, usually takes around 12 mins. I started doing weighted pullups and then got some tendonitis
perfect time to focus on legs!

Hey Zak, in that pic of your hand with the control cables coming out of it, is that your shiny cute shoe at the top of the picture? ( I sure hope not...:lmao
Hahah, "control cables" - the doc prefers "k wires" or pins.
I wish I could say it was, but that is a great shot of my girlfriend who was running away because she didnt want to take the picture for me :crazy:
