I love all of the excuses as to why someone can’t post a picture.
EVERY single wal-mart has a Kodak Imaging set up. take a pic and a floppy disc to walmart and the prompts on the screen will tell you what to do.
Office Max and Kinkos can put pics onto a CD or floppy for you as well. When you get your 35mm film developed have a disc made at that time. We are talking a few dollars. IF you really wanted a pic to post you would have no trouble doing so.
Well I plan on posting my pic so people will respond to my threads even if I do look like a fat slob. I try to only reply to those that look good because I am in no position to rag on someones phy.
So I agree with ya Goldberg
there is a hebrew phrase saying: “dont look at the bottle, look for whats in it”
another problem is that you can use lighting and depth to achieve, not illusions, but you’d be decieved. there’s this guy who is a model in my gym, you should see his pic in the newspaper he looks better then the luv4u guy but in trooth he’s a skinny mo-fo with abs.
To help out with this, I’m going to be compiling a “Boys of Westside” swimsuit calendar. I’ll get Goldberg, Steve, big martin, Landon, etc. together, throw them in some thongs, and sell some calendars. All proceeds will go to purchasing Dr. Phil a set of male genitalia.
glute, I believe most people here can recognize how lighting and other variables come into play when viewing a photograph of someone. The point of this thread isn’t to start a contest of “who looks best”, but rather make sure that those giving out information are also following it.
Well, I’ll just respond with this – I have no digital camera, no scanner, and feel no need to spend “the few extra dollars” to placate the forum.
In the last few years I’ve gone from 150 to 200 at a height of 5’11". My lifts aren’t even impressive for a 150 pounder. I don’t look all that far from normal, but at least I’m not a skinny bastard any more.
I was always with brider, but I did get some motivation from training pics, so maybe Ill give back.
I still didn’t connect my scanner, need a battery for the digital camera, and never bothered to learn to post a picture. But maybe it would help or give a little inspiration to a newbie. I’m thinking of a thread of skinny powrelifter at 19 to now at forty. No supplements but protein and only heavy training when healthy. I’d like people to have a shot without making mistakes that I made when I was young.
I graduated from high school at 5’6" 130 lbs. I’m now 5’7" at 195. Take off ten lbs of fat, and I’d be as lean as high school. It can be done.
But Goldberg, aren’t you at this very moment bashing the hell out of that BBPLTeen kid on the photo forum? It seems to me you’re quite the critic yourself.
Nothing is mandatory, but lame excuses are just that.
I know that seeing the pics of the other Vixens really stoked my newbie fires when I started on this journey into the Iron World. I liked seeing what hard work can do for a body.
I take pics every month to chart my progress. Changes are so subtle that you can’t truly appreciate them until you compare pictures. The above pic is April, May and Sept.
OOPS! Just reread my post from last night and I was actually meaning to pick on STU, not RSU. My bad. (This is what happens after too many “Near beers” so late at night.)
I just can’t honestly imagine myself snapping pics of myself without clothes on, then putting them on the internet. Somehow, somewhere, it would bite me in the ass.
I guess you’ll have to ask Patricia, Ko, or Ike. They’ve met me.
I would love to post training pics, but need to get a camera and partner first - maybe the next time I hit the gym with the Portland t-cell.
True, true. I actually do have a camera, so next time I lift with a partner (HEY PATRICIA AND KO ARE WE GONNA DO THAT TRICEP KICKBACK DROPSET WORKOUT WE’VE BEEN DISCUSSING?) I will post pics.
I admit being a skinny fuck, as my stats have shown on another thread. But even if I werent, I would not post pics of myself on such a widely visited forum, flexing in my underwear. Call me crazy.
