progress thread, "did I even change" edition

So god bless the people of your family and your life and you can always be your own friend. However I think I should probably be able to see more levels as soon because they have never seen the same amount as me.

Can someone give me a bf% estimate and generals tips on what's lagging/what to work out?
I'm guessing around 17%. 182cm, 80kg, lifting 1 year.

>>40578173
Thats solid work

>>40578184
Hard to tell bf from that pic if I were to guess ~14%
Work on your shoulders and chest

>>40578184
Hard to guess with that pic because it's pretty limited. Chest is lagging pretty bad, but I'm sure you know that already. 17% is a good estimate.

>>40578184
Looks like your nipples are trying to escape your chest, better wrangle those bad boys in.

If u can't accept me at my bulk, u don't deserve me at my cut

>>40579813
how about I accept you squating on my fucking face

also, looking decent, keep lifting hard and get your diet on point. you will be in really good shape in just half year

>>40579813
>only started eating enough to gain muscle and lifting seriously

If you're new to lifting you could get away with dieting and lifting so you lean out and put on muscle. That won't last forever though. Yeah your back looks pretty good, no need to really go fancy yet with the workout so you seem to be on the right track.

>>40578365
sheeeit Im 31 yo, 5'8.5 and 140 lbs right now. 160lbs is my goal. we also have same body type and all. thx for inspiring me brah

>>40579850
I plan on doing a small cut in the fall after putting on more mass. I have to admit though, my goals are to be joocy mini-fridge mode.

>>40579870
I lifted for a year while cutting at 1200 cals, saw little improvent in lifts and got too thin for my liking. But I'm definitely going to keep the diet in check, I do eventually want to compete so I know I'll need to be able to lift while going through cut n bulk cycles.

Gained about 35kg but the only real progress is me not using my socks all the way up.

>>40581463

You look bigger despite being 16kg lighter. The power of low bodyfat.

Too many are afraid of cutting because numbers in the scale goes down which is just sad (if your goal is aestethics).

Muscle definition is what makes you 'big' and look impressive to normies. Keep cutting bro and then never let yourself go above 15-16% bodyfat on bulks.

It's been mostly cardio. I just started weight training, however my new job also requires a bit of heavy lifting so I've been able to develop more muscle than I expected in my arms.

I'd say each day I have roughly 1200-1800 calories, I am a recovering food addict, so some days are worse than others but I've found that keeping myself busy and using walking as my main mode of transportation helps me ward off food and keep my intake low

>>40582832

Never too late man. Take pictures from day one every week so you can look back and appreciate how far you've come. Any time I feel like I'm not making progress I just pull up something from a few months ago, or the same time last year, or 2 years ago, etc, and there's my proof that I am making progress. Compare your current self to your former self, not to an arbitrary end goal "goal body" or whatever. Best way to stay positive and looking forward to the next workout imo.

I might just not kill myself after all. Basically have the same body as you on the right, so there is hope.

Did you do anything special for training your core? Or did you just do deadlifts, squats and oats?

>>40587467
Looking better already my friend. Don't give up. If you can do this, you can do anything!

>>40587719

I don't do compounds (so no deadlifts or squats) and I don't eat oats, IIFYM diet. Core looks the way it does thanks to pretty low bf and that's it.

Unrelated but time for first date since breakup. Going to a bar for drinks + bowling after, anything to take my mind off previous succubus. Wish me luck brehs.

yoo Balconybro - i appreciate your posts you're routine you posted a few months back was super useful. Obviously still a beginner myself but I am content with my progress so far.
Picture 1 was the first picture I ever took of myself shirtless, Pic 2 was after I lifted on a deficit for about 6 months, and Pic 3 is now after a beginner's bulk.

>>40577840
I have to act as if I can manage them. They are testing to see if you are looking for a shirt. On the other hand, I will be able today, but it's progress nonetheless.

>>40582876
FUCK YOU what is the point of saying these things. Damn it, this thread is for showing progress, stop being a fucking asshole. You are talking to a real human being. Yes she should have never let it go that far, but she looks better than ever and she should be proud. Fuck. I fucking hate this site sometimes. I mean, it is one thing to bash on fatties, but she is not even fat anymore but still you find reasons to bash her and fuck up her confidence.

>>40591045

Substantial gains made anon. Pic two shows you did really well lifting despite cutting at a deficit. Pic 3 of the current bulk looks like you have no problem getting the calories in you need to grow. If anything my advice at this point would be to work on how to bulk without putting on a disproportionate amount of BF. Between july and march you put on 30lbs, but realistically only 8-15lb's of that is quality lean mass, 15lb's being extremely generous. Most research shows that a novice natural lifter can expect to gain about 1lb of muscle per month max assuming a solid+consistent lifting routine and adequate nutrition (protein requirements and caloric surplus).

This means in a nutshell that you should be aiming to gain ~2lb's per month, knowing that not even the full 2 lb's will be LMM. If you're gaining more weight than that every month, you need to lower your caloric surplus. Bulking shouldn't mean entire extra meals or a dramatically different diet. You only need about +300 calories over your TDEE in order to remain in an anabolic state. An extra 300 calories per day truly isn't much, we're talking maybe one bonus snack per day, or slightly larger portion sizes on 1-2 meals. Eating more than this doesn't make you *more* anabolic.

Keep up the progress, dial in your bulk to more closely resemble a "lean bulk", should be making gains for a long time to come and it'll make the ensuing cutting phase much faster and easier.

What's with all these white knights in this thread?

She posted pics here to show her progress and get judged. She got told the truth. Simple as that.
She lost some weight and looks better, but her transformation is nowhere near as good as it could be (though on its way), and other people completely eclipse her transformation. This should motivate her to try harder instead of saying how complacent her boyfriend is.

These are the kind of people who make the original copypastas.
