and you cant tell me you can look like that guy you posted with just going to the gym 3x per week for 2h. youd probably need at least 2x of that and keep a strict diet. youre the expert for looking at naked men tell me the bodyfat percentage we see in that pic.
there are ppl here who go to the gym every single day for 2-3h and they look completely average.


btw that gramps apparently is a gym regular now i see him almost every time im there. he even lifts. not a lot but much more than you's expect from what he looks like. i just hope he doesnt drop dead while im around lol. that would be a drag and Yulya hates trouble.

That guy is probably <12-14% bodyfat but he's also flexing and sucking in hard, I'm 18-20 always. Not even when I went 3/5's 3 hours each I still had 18-20% bodyfat. I'm not even sure I can do that without some kind of dangerous supplements. I've been down to 165 and still had >15-16% bodyfat, how they do that exactly has to be something like working out every day 8 hours, never cared to do that.

I can appreciate the look though.

I do keep a strict diet and I have to say that when on Atkins or Carnivore my belly is flat as a washboard fr. I never saw my veins in my biceps or shit like that though. In my forearms I did though so that had to be <18% and that was with 2x a week 2 hours each.

I can't say I look average, people spot me by my beef and say shit like, "I saw those biceps and I knew it was you."

I would love for someone to drop dead in front of me so I can give this look.



I just have to refrain from laughing or they might think I had a part in it.

Goals:

Here are some goals that will keep you busy:

30 pull ups without assistance
Benching your body weight at least 4 sets of 6
100 pushups in 1 minute (this is for exhibition only, I don't recommend this be one of your exercises, push ups don't build size. This is a measure of fitness.)
3 sets of 20 walking lunges (I know this doesn't follow the format we have but not everything is perfect, be a little flexible.)
30 dips (a measure of triceps)
30 slow full roman bench back extensions, the full kind (if you can do this, you probably will never have back issues.)
Plank for 300 seconds. (this is a measure of your core.)

I have done all these of course.
I only spotted this now because lol didn't read.

I mean nope, no chance, not even a quarter of that.
And what do you mean by 'have done'?
That's something different than 'can do all of that one after the other'.
Anyway I doubt we will ever reach that. Lunges and back extensions seem doable, also 100 push-ups but not in a minute. The rest? Not without them
chink horse steroids.

Doing 30 pullups is something I do when I'm under 200. I do 100lb pulls each arm so it figures.

I used to do 200 puships every night the first 100 in a minute for sure cause I wanted to get it done fast, 200 was also arbitrary because I could have kept going. Last time I did was a couple years ago.

I don't do bench anymore

30 dips, easy, at one point it was impossible but no problem now.

Back extension is on my list with the dips, they're day 2. No sense in doing multiple sets.

I did the planks that time but it's so boring, I never actually trained planks by doing planks.
