You look pale and a little high bf. Good width and size but no definition at all, might look juicy after a hard cut.

OP needs to do something about that acne and cut, apart from that both of you respectable gentlemen are looking pretty good.

>>41986932
>You look pale
So?

I won't be cutting till the end of the year as I want to keep gaining strength :/

What can I do about the acne? I've always had it but it was worse in my teens during puberty, solid backs tho

>>41986997
Hot showers. Don't sleep without a shirt on. Wash your bedsheets at least once or twice a week. Cut back on the milk and cheese. If all that fails then hop on Accutane.

>>41986987
you're not even OP you're some WN larper who's going to get mad that somebody implied being pale is bad

just go away

>>41986997
Getting some sun helps as well.

>>41987051

Thanks man I will start doing those things, sometimes if I'm going to the gym late in the evening I don't shower after which probably doesn't help either, I'd prefer not to have to get on Accutane

and yea sunlight I don't get much of, I only leave my room to lift and go to work

>>41986902

Might want to get that mole looked at. The one just above your belt line. 6/10 back otherwise. Width is there but looks like the traps and erectors may need development.

>>41986902

What back workouts do you bros do?

>>41987085

Helps you get cancer. Tanning is not healthy.

some sun you fucking idiot, not becoming a kebab under august sun

>>41987058
why are you so paranoid?

>>41986902
Anyone know why it's so hard to get my back big? I can get my chest big really quick with just benching, and I can feel my chest get really sore after a workout. I haven't had a similar experience when working out my back.

>>41987212
just do pullups

>>41987126

Deadlift 3x a week and do 3x7 for three back accessories after, two horizontal (e.g. db rows & seated cable rows) and one vertical (e.g. lat pulldown) afterwards

And whoever mentioned the mole thanks I will ask my doctor to look at it when I'm next in. I have had it for years though I've never thought there may be something wrong, hopefully nothing bad.

What's the ideal reps/sets for deadlift?

>>41987158
I'm natural retard

>>41987325
1x5

>>41987325
1 x 5
1 x 3
1 x 1

>>41987325

I would say on average over a week I work with 90% of my max for a mixture of singles, doubles and triples. Sometimes 4 -6 rep sets with a slightly lower percentage too, but not too often. On weeks where I'm planning to PR I will drop out squats and back accessories leading up to it.

I also squat (front squat only atm) 1-3x a week depending on how much focus I want to give to pulls and again when I'm going for a PR.

I've gone from a 398lb deadlift and a very unimpressive back going into 2017 toba 550lb deadlift last week and a decent back in 6 months. Bodyweight went from 167lbs coming out of a four month cut at the end of last year to currently sitting at 187lbs, but I have gained a fair bit of bodyfat as you can see.

>>41987441
How do you front squat ass to mouth in a public gym? What is the benefit?

>>41987481

Front squats help a lot with speed off the floor when deadlifting and I prefer to be as explosive as possible with all my pulls so it's my bread and butter

Did a Muslim throw acid on your face?

>>41989592
not at that height lel

Are deadlifts required for a thicker and wider back? Or could I get away with just weighted pull ups and row variations?

>>41986902
Will I get banned for posting my back tiddies?
