My gosh Austin, you are THE MAN!

austin_bicep – good to see you posting again. Nice work.

Aren’t you glad you don’t listen to the ‘peanut gallery’?

But…aren’t they always right!!!

Damn it, here I was about to stick my finger down my throat due to my rampant obesity and now you imply that they might not be right!!!

austin, you are looking thick as hell. It is pretty damn badass, IMO.

The first time i benched the 110lb DB’s for reps, i definitely thought of this thread and your hugeness before hand.

Austin, how much are your arms and forearms now?[/quote]

They’re about 18 1/4 cold when I wake up.

They haven’t gotten to much bigger on the measuring tape but they are bigger. I’ve leaned up a bit. I also curled 145 x 9 last week and dead skulled 140 x 8 so my numbers keep going up and I’m pretty sure I’m gaining muscle while losing fat.

A big part of definition is ligthing.

I bet before Artem cut down, he had the exact same amount of LBM and BF% as you do in that pic

…which is about the same as you have in that avatar.

Point?

hahaha, sorry, i was hoping my sarcasm was apparent.

background: i am pretty sure artem compared himself to Austin musculature wise earlier in one of these threads which is very much laughable[/quote]

Haha, and thanks Matko Crono, Steely, Jax, and X for the compliments.

I will never listen to any negative mother fuckers. It’s in one ear and out the other and will always be like that.

Jax nice job on the 110’s keep hitting that shit.

I have a long road ahead of me and many years to go but I’ll be hitting the weights as hard as I can and I’ll see where it takes me.

Your triceps is just sick, you can see it’s huge on the sidetri’…

Looking great, I just hope I’ll look that good with 18’s (long way to go)

If I had listened to them, I would have dropped below 200lbs when I weighed 210 in that pic I posted…because they ALL thought I was too fat then and that bulking up more would be a huge mistake.

Unless someone is either working extremely hard or has achieved better then you, ignore damn near all of them when they try to tell you that you are doing it wrong. Listen to the big guys. There is a huge difference between being a little smooth when gaining and becoming some sort of all out fat ass.

Once I started doing this, my lifts are going up, and compliments I’m getting Saturdays are “you look bigger” and “you take up more space”.

Looking real monstrous right here brother. Fuck man I can’t even imagine what you’ll look like once you get a few more years of training under the belt.

What? In that double-bi shot you posted? As you’re so fond of saying: that’s retarded.

Nice work, austin. Glad to see a positive thread in here for once.

Hey Austin, nice to hear that you’re still improving!

Gotta download the pics and view them on my laptop later, my screen at this pc stretches everything and so it makes your arms look like they’re 21+ inches or something like that :slight_smile:

Thanks Carlos I appreciate it.

Ceph my bro, yeah let me know what you think. I’ve been getting a lot stronger lately and improving.

And thanks Mr. Purple too. I’m trying.

And CC lol, Wait til they are 21’s they’ll look like 26’s on your computer. Can’t wait til the day.

As probably the biggest Artem hater on this board, I never saw any similarities between shArtem and Austin.

18.25 cold man, damn. 1/4 inch on me, are you finding it harder to put size on now that theyre up there on the ruler? im weighing in at 249-250 now, and it seems now that every 10 lbs now is a 1/2 an inch rather than a full one.

Your looking thick as hell man. Good work.

And thanks for lighting the fire under my ass to get my pressing up. It was like clairvoyance or something, my titties are coming in nicely.
