Hi Gladiola, i do have some studio fotos done in april 2001. I was i think 182 at 12%. I have just at 10 pounds more LBM now.
The problem is my ass is showing in them and i dont think i should post them here. I think a suit distracts from the flow of the muscles across the body, interrupts the lines of it. Do you know what i am trying to say? They werent porn shots, but i think maybe some ladies here might be offended.

Wow, thanks for all the info and also Wow on the stats to. I'd like to see those pics too!
I think after reading what you said, one of my problems may be I'm not eating enough protein. I think I just have a hard time eating that much. It's more of a time issue, than not being hungry. Do you have the diet you use written down, maybe I could start with that and modify it for my weight. As for going back to working the larger muscles twice a week, do you have a good split in mind.
Also, as far a protein/MR supplements is one better than another. I think ISO PURE has 50 grams of protein but I think I heard somebody say that you should only take it post-workout, because if you used it as a MR it would raise your sugar levels and be counterproductive.
So when you were taking Tribex, how much were you taking?
Thanks agin for all the info.

Hi Magdelana,
Spatts is right, we would NOT be offended in the LEAST at ass shots
Matter of fact, the majority of us love looking at a nice ass (male or female) we like to look at muscular bodies. I would say Elite is not conservative AT ALL.When my photographer friend finally gets around to getting the shots printed, I'll be posting my ass too! Although I'm wearing a thong, so it's not my entire ass.
Even if you just share a shot of your shoulders & arms, we'd love to see whatever you are comfortable with sharing. Besides being fun to look at - it's MOTIVATION!
Hi Becky,
yes i think we all have a problem getting the time to eat enough. That is why drinking your calories helps so much.
As for a routine, go to the "help a scrawny chick" thread. Spatts suggested a nice 4 day rotation there. No need for me to say all that again.
Sorry i do not know ISO PURE and cannot say about that. I think anything with a lot of simple sugars however will cause a big jump of insulin and soon make you feel tired, which is certainly not good for a workout. Ultra Fuel is 100 grams of mostly complex carbs and is great to drink before a workout. 400 calories and tasty too. GNC has it.
The Tribex is to be 4 capsules ED, two in the morning on empty stomach and two in the evening, before your meal. This will last 5 weeks.
Metrx is a great MR, but Pricey! If you can afford it great. If not try EAS protein. It is inexpensive and good quality. You can add Flax oil, or yogurt or anything else you like to it to increase the calories.
No i do not have my diet written anymore. It has been years that i have it memorized. I think that 2500-2700 a day for such a small women as you would probably be enough to gain, unless your activity level is VERY high. so try 5 meals at 500 calories. 30 grams of protein at each meal is 120 calories, and leaves about 400 more. Try about 50 grams of carbs and maybe 10 grams of fat at each meal if you can. meals you dont have time for, drink them. Never go more than 3 hours without a meal!
After you gain maybe 5 pounds of muscle you will need to raise your calories about 300-400 more ED to keep gaining.
