Alrite guys, here we go. I'm 22 5'8 and 177 lbs, I plan on doing some natural shows in june. So im looking for critiques on what i need to work on to be ready by then. I've been trying to bulk the past 3 months but my body fat stays pretty low year round. I'm pretty pleased with my progess so far, but still see that i have a ways to go, i would like to be 190-195lbs by february, but we'll have to see what happens. Thanks in advance for your help!

Let me go ahead and say my back is not as broke out as it looks, and no its not from steroids. I have maybe 3 zits on my back the rest are just red marks that haven't faded. that being said... here's the back!

Alrite there you go... let me have it!
 
Pretty ripped up bro... Nice work
U got a big back.. And there is definetly always room for getting Bigger :evil:
 
Thanks, i've been blasting the back pretty hard... i would like to some more width in the future, and some thick pecs to match :)
 
bro you have a very good proportion...awesome work to be 22...your shoulders and arms specially looks very good.
how much is your waist?
 
thanks bro, my shoulders and arms have always been my strong point, about the waist im not sure, i'll let you know when i find a tape. I wear a 32 jean, but they are loose, i'd guess 30 inches at my hips
 
You look great. I am not sure if you already do these, but if not: DEADLIFT! This will get you to 190 easily. Shoulders and arms look great.
At 22 you have great overall shape, so as you add mass it will most likely stay proportional.
 
you've got an excellent physique. the width of your shoulders and your triceps stand out. quads are looking jacked as well. with your narrow waist, the v-taper looks good. the left-right symmetry looks spot-on. and, of course, quite lean.

to my sensibilities, you don't have any major weaknesses (but then again, wtf do i know about what wins contests?). if i were to focus on anything, i think your chest could use some mass to fit in better with your broad shoulders. the biceps will benefit from some work to pump up that peak. i can't see your calves very well, but perhaps some additional size will help them fit in with your already-nice upper legs.

these are only minor points. overall, the body is looking fucking good.
 
Eviscerator: thanks bro, I've just added deads in recently, and i've been working the weight up as to not injure myself, im going HEAVY with them Saturday :) looking forward to it.

JackAngel: chest is definately my weakness, bet it is ever so slowly thickening... i need something to add some mass to it anybody got any ideas?
 
Yes i must agree you physique looks very good.. If anything a little more on the chest but who am I to talk you look better then I do at the same age god damn genetics!!
 
You look awesome bro! Mayyyyybe a little more lat width, bicep peak, and upper chest. Nail those down and you've got a great chance at placing well in a show.

P.s. All that acne on your back is natural? Or have you run some cycles in the past and are cleaning up to run a natty show?
 
thanks guys,

Dooley: thanks for the advice, the acne is natural, i have done some light cycles a while back they the acne came about before then. Just something i gotta deal with.
 
Right on.. I was just curious. Regardless of the cycles in the past.. you look awesome now, and it takes a lot of work and dedication to maintain a physique like that. Props to you bro!!
 
v shape said:
You have juiced before and plan on competing naturally...

You look great! Big, lean, and proportioned.

Why are you competing in a natural contest? Doesn't it defeat the purpose?
 
defeat the purpose of what? I'm completely natural now and train that way... i could understand if i got HUUGGE off steroids then said i was going to do natural shows but thats not the case here... My history of AS is nothing to brag about i did 6weeks of fina about a year ago with no recovery drugs so i crashed hard and lost everything i gained if not more... the only other "cycle" was four years ago when i did a month of sust and deca at doses so low its not worth mentioning... also with no recovery...

As of now im stronger than i've ever been, with more lean muscle, my arms are the biggest they've ever been. So i see no shame in competing in natural competitions cause thats what i am. AS didn't contribute to my current physique IMO.

Yeah... not natural... what don't you understand?

Still looking good though bro... keep it up...
 
so i did a small cycle a year ago, so im forever not natural... And if i ever want to compete i have to compete against juicers even though i don't take anything? now that i don't understand..........
 
ye if what you say is true, then i would compete at all natural, while you have a good physique i dont think anyone will say you used gear.

Do you do incline benches or flat, might want to try inclines for the chest???

How big are the wheels, hard to tell from that pic. they look good, maybe 2-3 more inches, i dont know, im not an expert.

also jsut noticed something, your right side seems to be a tad bigger, might want to work on proportion.

either way lloking good for basically being all natty, u know what BF% you are?
 
Thanks SirBen and ffknight for the encouragement.

ffknight: i do both flat and incline... im up to 225 on incline for reps. And still going

My chest has always lagged, it is slowly getting thicker though... i think because of the genetic structure it does have much of a defined separation from the abs as others do which makes it appear smaller also... But i think if i can get it big enough it will over come that.

i haven't taken any measurements lately or bf% but i'll post them when i do

thanks again guys
 
bro just keep ypur good work...sometimes we try to look for perfection but you already have an awesome body compared to the average guy of your age...so go ahead in your way and you'll get even better results...good luck!
 
lookin ripped brutha. like sweed says, gettin bigger(especially in the chest) is the only thing i would recommend..awesome!! tb

looking ripped bro, i would try to get bigger tho. if you could add 15 pounds and stay the same BF, you would be huge. you still look pretty good either way tho. goodjob
 
Thanks guys, im going to try and get atleast another ten pounds on somewhere around february and keep the bf low, that way when i have to diet it won't take long at all and i keep putting on mass up till then.

Supertech: thanks bro, im going to max out my natty potential and see just how far i can take this... im making great gains as it is, so there is no need for the sauce! But i know what you mean ;)

rjl296: thanks, the funny thing is i haven't trained abs in over 2 months lol... im gonna hit em up probably in january full force so i can have the frank zane mid section...
I'm actually shooting for the Zane physique lol maybe one day
 
Hey Venom...what did you use in your last cycle? and how long?
 
This is not a flame, but you got a small frame to work with!!! There's no doubt your shredded, but you could definately put on mass on every aspect of your body, especially back and calves!!!

But fuck what I say and what anyone else says, do what you gotta do man, as long as your happy fuck everything else!!!

Start rubbin some Vitamin E on that Bacne, it'll clear up quick!!!
 
djufo: i mentioned it earlier in the post... it was about a year ago with fina for six weeks with no recovery (read: very hard crash) so i lost everything i gain + stopped training all together.

PatsFan: no flame taken... we could all benefit from a little mass lol... but with a small frame i do have advantages... the more mass i put on, the bigger it will look on my small frame than someone with a larger frame... and yes i need some calves... rub it in lol... im taking care of it ;)

Lestat: i don't know HiIntensity, assuming he's a member..... should i :)
 
I don't have any suggestions for your contest.....but you look great!! Good job!!
 
i think you look really good. nice physique.

personally im not into shows, i just like looking good for myself, and the ladies. i think youre there already.

your skin needs some work though. id go see a doctor and beauty therapist about how to make those dots clear up fast
 
It's so nice to see someone make incredible gains NATURALLY!!

I'm rootin' for ya!! Your physique is awesome... no weakness stands out..
 
Lestat: i don't know HiIntensity, assuming he's a member..... should i :) [/B]


Nah, actually I should never have asked, because you act nothing like him.

You do look like him, and share the same taste in underwear.

Anyway, your body is solid man.

Sorry about your back, I have shouler acne that is bothersome and many times its as if NOTHING helps.

See a dermatologist.. they can try antibioitcs.. and last resort accutane for a few months.

There are also topical things you can use.. some by prescription and some over the counter. I find that a salcilic acid body wash helps.. but things like retin A micro don't.

Very impressive body though, especially because you are so lean.
 
hey bro...great work...id hit heavy dips for ur chest, and maybe on ur bench work, take ur hands in a little to take emphasis off of ur front delts
 
Thanks alot guys, your comments keep me motivated :)

Lestat: It's cool don't worry bout it, i took some pics last night that were in color and you can't hardly see any marks on my back... wierd, i will have it cleared up by contest time though

Magman1: I've started heavy dips about 3-4 weeks ago, i love them... I actually was going to move my hands in for bench this week lol, i usually put my pinkies on the marks on the bar. I'm doing good weight with it but i feel its hitting the shoulders too much and not enough chest. We'll see what happens.
 
Looking good! Thanks for posting!
