I only started training two months ago, just after turning 20 years old, and when I started I weighed 205lbs @ 6ft tall with 17 inch arms, after two months i’m already up to 224lbs with 18inch arms, and body fat level about the same — which is slightly fat, but I never seem to get obese, my level of fat seems to stay pretty constant no matter how much shit I eat.
After two months of training my lifts are
Deadlift 520lbs
Bench Press 280lbs
Squat 450lbs
PULL-UPS >15
Leg Press >1000lbs
Overhead Press 200lbs
Bicep Curl 170lbs
Dumbell Curls 64lbs for 6-10 reps each arm
I think I may be helped by having a gigantic frame, both my wrists measure over 8inches and my right wrist is 8.5 inches. Both of my ankles are also comfortably over 12 inches around, and my hip/pelvis structure for a man is also incredibly broad. (more like what you’d expect on a female actually) My actual waist only measures 34 but I have to wear 38pants simply because of my abnormal hip structure.
I appreciate that my arms are pretty much the definition of “fatceps” however my ambition is simply to increase my weight as fast as possible up towards 300lbs without getting much “fatter” than I am right now. Only then will I think about “cutting” whilst taking advantage of whatever strength gains go along with that weight gain.
Anyway my question is, am I blessed? Or are all these guys here with 1000’s of posts and yet only 14/15/16 inch arms lazy as fuck and not trying very hard?[/quote]
It took me a long time to reach those numbers, If you really were able to do that in 2 months then kudos to you. I eagerly anticipate your videos.

Sure you are. I like prof-X and you well enough. You add to the community. I never said your attitude of “I could kick your ass is bad” simply that you seem to have that. Celtic adds to the community in whole other way, I truly truly hope this thread goes that way.

When I started lifting in my 20’s, my arms only measured 14" (1st taped at the end of my 1st year in the gym). I also benched 315 after just a single year of training… but certainly didn’t look like I could. I wasted years just chasing numbers thinking that I’ll just get as strong as I can and eventually I’ll be huge. You know what? It didn’t happen. I just happened to start out at a greater strength level than most people, and in the long run, it didn’t mean sh-t. Sure you’re starting out much stronger than the typical new trainer, but you look like crap, and your attitude leaves much to be desired. As you mentioned yourself, this is a Bodybuilding forum, so no one cares how much you lift. Sure everyone likes to be able to boast of an impressive feat, but those who truly understand this pursuit realize it’s not actually the goal. All you’ve done is show that you have no clue what you’re talking about, that you’re arrogant and immature, and managed to insult people who honestly put forth their best efforts with consistency and should be respected for such whether they reach their lofty goals or not.

Boom Headshot. You know you’re in the wrong when even Stu is pissed off.
Not a bad lift. I can’t see a belt, there might be one under the hoody but i’d definitely reccomend getting a decent one. If your from the UK Zulu is a good company to try.
