FDB

This has been a very informative thread, thanks for putting yourself out there like this (good for my learning). Also very interesting following Swolle’s comments and advice.

Lookin great man

This is a great thread. Sorry i missed it until now. i hope you do very well, you’ve built a great physique. structurally you are put together very well. some great posing advice and insight here.

most folks only have a vague concept of how to pose, how to transition, how to set up, how to showcase their best parts and put them in the forefront. what’s been offered here is worth it’s weight in gold. that said…you’ve done a hell of a lot of WORK.

Haven’t checked in on your progress for a while, but damn you are looking sharp. Improvements everywhere. Good work.

Ya…I can’t thank guys like Stu, thoughts, Bug, Way, and others enough for helping me along in the posing arena, as I pretty much was clueless 18 weeks ago lol.

This thread hopefully should help others learn the to do’s and not to do’s on posing : ).

Thanks David!

Really been pushing it hard in the past few weeks.

Just checking in guys. Snapped a couple of pics this morning. Bodyweight has been consistently below 200 lb.

Been working hard on this pose with help from Stu, thoughts, bug, and way.

More progress! /Jealous

Awesome. I find it hard to believe that you could have any more fat to lose!

Lookin’ much better! Shove those strengths in the judges’ faces every chance you get!

looking great evan! I know its been said a million times but your quads are just ridiculous. Your rear double bi is just sick. You’re going to kick some serious ass at your show.

Back double bi is still off a bit… Elbows higher and back leg needs to be turned heel in more to show side view of leg… Looks thin the way it is now. Getting tighter though.

I don’t know if the elbows necessarily need to be higher in the RDB, but you definitely need to rotate the arms backwards. Remember what Thoughts and I told you, the judges’ table will be lower than the stage, and angling correctly will display your anterior delt head even on rear poses.

S

Back double bi’s is awesome, keep it up man.

I agree and disagree with u stu… Arms do need rotation due to judges looking up at you… But in my opinion in all bicep poses if the peak of your biceps is above shoulder lever it gives them the appearance of being larger…
