* Best leg workout in a while. Had crazy spasms in my legs while doing anything, driving home was a trip, keeping my foot on the gas and break was ridiculously hard they were shaking so bad.

First time for lunges in god knows how long, maybe a year. I was huffing and puffing while doing them and probably going to include them a lot more often.

Shoulders- Nothing huge to note. did some dips towards the end and was pleased.

No Huge jump but weighed myself for the first time in a while and was at 185.5lb.

Adding a couple back pics to just see my progress. critiques are welcome good or bad I use it all.

 

[barnzy7]

All are un-flexed. I dont know how to pose so I was just standing in the general position, trying to get my arms even because I had a cell in one of them.

First pic was at 168lbs, next two pics were at 185lbs.

BF% was about 10-11 in first and I would say around 13-14 in other two.

 

[barnzy7]

Will be doing legs later today. Shoulders a couple days ago and nothing yesterday. Spent the day driving 7hrs and was too dead to do much of anything.

Strength seems to be going up pretty regularly. Dont know if it is a more consistent diet, different training split, or just pushing myself harder.

Hit a PR on shoulder day.

Arnolds 45x15/55x12/65x10/75x4 All PR's

[Dlove]

Looking good like usual Barn. Your progress pics looks like real muscle gain as time goes not much fat, good job I cant help sloppy diet and shit sometimes my hats off to you.

Your lifts look good. Maybe some weighted dips for you I'm thinkin. You could throw in some farmers walk if your gym has space. The only thing id work on is getting your back thicker but thats gonna come cause your still growin keep it up1!

 

[barnzy7]

Thanks for checking in dlove. Havent hit weighted dips hard for about a month. i had a couple weeks where i did them 2 or 3 times in a week and saw some good strength gains.

back today. layed off the lower back more than normal. has felt tired for a couple weeks now.

My gym at home and school doesnt have DB's bigger than 75 and 100 respectively so trying to take advantage while im here, I can hit BB anytime at home.

tons of guys are on at my gym here. its real humbling and puts me in my place, especially after training at Planet fitness

Shoulders- great workout set some PR's

DB Shoulder Press 25x15/60x12/70x10/80x7PR/85x4.5PR (No spot or help)

A lot of weights felt really light even after working a long 8hr day with only drinking egg whites, loaf of wheat bread, some yogurt and some cheese all day long at work.

 

[Rougen123]

EDIT-Just looked at your stats bro, you've got to be pretty fucking strong/big to throw around some of the weights your listing on exercises. I just want to see if the pics match up.
