Actually, I’d say he’s dead-on. At 4.9% you should be close to seeing your glutes striations.

How is this guy only a 7.4?

I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but 7.4 is damn good on this website. The 9s and 10s should be reserved for bodybuilders in contest shape.
I don’t want to take anything away from the OP, he’s got some good size and is ripped as hell, but I think a 7.4 is a very good, and accurate, score.
hey i’m fine with a 7.4, 7.0, 3.9 whatever. the lower the number just means there’s more for me to work on which is great!
ovalpline - i read that Scott Abel article, a new goal will be just to get to the level of being able to complete that workout. i haven’t logged it yet on trainersjournal.com, but today i did:
back squats with a board under my heels like that guy in the picture in the article so my ass touched the bottom of my calves
5 x 10,10,10,9,8 @ 225
rear barbell lunges alternating legs
3 x 20 @ 185
owwwwwww that hurt
has anyone else attempted that Scott Abel workout? http://www.T-Nation.com/readArticle.do?id=1783782

You are nowhere near 4.9%bf.
Ok I was just going off what a trainer tested me at. I did some machine where you grip some handles it sends a pulse through your body after you type your height and weight in. It came back at 4.9%. Wtf am i suppose to say my BF is if that said 4.9%. Is that type of machine inaccurate?
This type of machine is indeed inaccurate. They vary a lot from one time to another and they also gonna change with the amount of liquid that is in your body at the time of the test.
You better use the old caliper method.
(I scored like 5,6% one time on this thing and I was in fact around 10%)
shoots brah thanks for that info. sorry to hijack your thread kbessette
no worries billa - never mind sharing a wave. actually asides calipers, the other method that i was made to do was hyrdostatic testing. it’s not a method that’s really all that publicly accessible unfortunately, but it’s fairly accurate. when i was in college, i was a guinea pig for the exercise physiology lab, doing numerous studies involving gatorade, ast, and other companies - was a lot of fun.
You look great… Hope the legs come on for you.
My legs are really coming on. Heavy deadlifts and high rep squats.
Man you look great i’m doing a similar upper/lower split you have become my GOAL! lol i saw your journal but i didn’t see any AB work whats the deal with that.
big1day - thanks for checking out trainersjournal.com. i actually don’t do any isolated ab work. between all the exercises that hit my core like squats, deadlifts, and weighted chinups, they get hit well. the sprints play a real big part in them too. their appearance is definitely based on how i eat.
I’m about 192 at your height with a higher bf% than you, and I can still dunk fairly easily, so maybe I can give some advice [I also caught my first dunk at 16 at 2 inches shorter and never touched a weight, but…] If you’re doing 2 lower workouts a week, I’d do one as heavy squats and the other heavy cleans as the focus.
Keep the reps in the 3-5 range and do sup stuff for hamstrings and calves in the 6-10 range. I’ve been focusing on “bodybuilding” for awhile, so I can’t get up like I used to, but I can still put down reverses and shit when loose. Simple advice, but I think it’ll work for you.
Boy Meets Grill?
Kidding. You look good, bro Shoulders are sick.
would kill for your shoulders. I have long heads on my shoulders as opposed to the ball shape and have no clue how to change that. Could you PM me your shoulder workout? pretty please? or if anyone knows how to round out shoulders?
yeah man wth do you do for your shoulders?
good job and you very good symmetry.
this thread also made me laugh because i just came from one where some douchebag tanned up and dieted down to look like a joke and then i come here seeing a regular guy who just knows what hes doing and made results without being a cunt. again, good job dude.
Finally someone who actually has a physique has posted! Yessssss!!!
Nice work man, back looks great. I second the thing about the 12 rep squats, I got the same advice here a while ago and I’m really starting to see some improvements over the last few weeks.
keep it up!
G.I. joe lol
