Dude you post your pics once you have a good physique not when you haven’t even lifted weights yet. Your supp to make progress and people comment on it or tell you how to refine or improve. What do you want people to say when you weigh 100 pounds. Shit

how are we to know how much progress he has made if we have no “day one” pictures to look at? (i.e the type of picture he has posted) these kind of pictures are vital if we are to see any progress at all. surely?[/quote]

Don’t be a retard you horses ass. This is Rate My Physique, not rate my progress.

This is just silly.

You are in serious need of a bosu ball and a hot dog.

Ok, few things, first off, you really posted in the wrong section of the forum, RMP is for when you’ve attained your goals and are looking for a little bragging rights. Your post would be better suited to the beginners forum. That being said, let’s get constructive.

Judging from your photos, bulking in your current state, probably not such a good idea, you need to focus on cutting the fat from your frame. Not to sound like a broken record here but, HEAVY COMPOUND MOVEMENTS, build your squat, dead and bench numbers.

You mentioned you’ve tried CW’s TBT Program? I would suggest you try BBB (Big Boy Basics) to get a little muscle on your frame, from there you can move onto all kinds of programs, there are literally hundreds of them spread across this site. Use the search function on the top right of your page, it’ll be an asset to you like nothing else.

Also read some Berardi, because you’ve got to clean up the diet situation. Good luck!

Not Such a good idea? Sounds like the best idea ever.

If you actually train, and train hard, then you can and should be eating mountains of lean meat every day and still be able to get leaner even if you’re taking in 600+ Grams of protein a day. Eat mountains of fruits and veggies as well.

Tailor your Carbohydrate intake to how active you are that day. I believe this is the basic idea behind carb cycling. If you’re squatting or deadlifting, then wolf down the carbs. If you’re not training at all that day, then there’s not really any need to take in more than 100 Grams of carbs, if that.

You don’t have to get fat in order to get jacked. You MUST eat a massive amount of food and often force feed yourself in order to get jacked.

While eating lots of good food, and eating frequently is important, it is also important that you get plenty of sleep. No more late night World of Warcraft sessions for you.

And not being a pussy is of the utmost importance in the gym. You need to do the hard, heavy exercises your skinny friends aren’t doing. That means Heavy Squats, Heavy Deadlifts, Heavy Rows, and Heavy Military Presses. I probably don’t need to tell you to Bench.

You may own sleeveless shirts, but if here are the rules governing them that I just made up:

At your current level you have 11 inch arms. If I saw you with a wife-beater on and BB.com shorts, I’d assume you were an indie-rock fan who was trying to be ironic. So right now it’s ok that you’re wearing a sleeveless shirt, because it’s slightly hilarious and clearly not meant to be an attempt to show off anything.

Once your arms go up to 13 inches, you fall into the category of looking pathetic. At this point, it would be best for you to not wear a sans-sleeve shirt outside of your home until you have at least 17’ arms.

What does everyone think of the rules?

I recommend Starting Strength. Some people call this the “Rippetoe program”. You squat 3x a week for 5 reps of 3 along with some other lifts. I too wasted alot of time not knowing what I was doing. Listen to what everyone here is telling you, drop the waterburry stuff and go back to the basics.

Squats and Milk
