Just did my first ever post bulk pics (not my first ever bulk, but I really hated how I looked in my previous bulks).
Still a looooooong way to go.

First - before this thread ends I just want to thank everyone in here for welcoming me last year and for all the support everyone has given me and others. Best group of peeps by far. Really inspiring work from everyone here and that helps me, and I'm sure others, out so much.
Second - I'll try to find an absolute first, last year and current year pics. I don't take pics much so yeah. Just nobody laugh XD
Third - I want my house back in order. Pulled 11 on the clock today, my GIT failed to post last night, I'm finishing tearing up the upstairs for tomorrow's install and I'm running low on Joe. I need a fucking shower, too. I smell like a cave dweller. Halp.

so it's that part of the thread where we put sassy pics showing "gains", I see.
Don't have much to share, since I already showed what pics I had liked some days ago but here's my "farewell OT8" pic, which is supposed to show chest gains.
by the way, is that the body of a 29% Bodyfat???? that stupid machine of that "nutitionist" I went to in Mexico told me that. I don't remember but I am probably pulling in my gut in this pic but regardless....I don't see a 30% BF here, I am sorry.
Right now I am 2 kgs (5 pounds) heavier than in December,
I have no idea what happened.
Psycho is german?
das ist ganz schön.

I've said it plenty of times in this thread alone, but I love you all. This is the only community on GAF, in my nearly 12 years here, that I feel a part of. You all keep me going, through the good and bad days. I've been overcoming some rough patches the past year or so, which of I'm spoken to a couple of you about. You all have helped so much.
The good attitudes, supportive community, impressive knowledge and progress all add up to a great group of people to be around.
Me and my mammoth quads plan to be around for OT9 and beyond.

Bud, you've changed a lot over the past year or so. So damn impressive, keep it up big guy.
I'll try to remember to reserve a post then. OT9 will be made tomorrow, lifting tonight and I won't be on the PC until after tomorrow morning. A link will be posted here as soon as it's up.
Not even close to 30%. Below 20%, around 18% probably?

Psh, I hate you all for what it's worth. Especially the ones who manage to be both light and ripped.

Since you hate all good things in life, I actually see this as a compliment to the members here

We need an official list of things Psycho dislikes:
All of us
Skinny ripped people
Peanut butter
Puppies
Bulges
Anything less than 16 hours of cardio
Bodyfat estimations
Everything I seem to enjoy
Chicken legs
Bulks under 30lbs
Feeling comfortable
I know I'm missing at least a dozen other things...
We love you psycho!

"Checks" is right. You made all of them look easy.
"Hey, imma lift my one-rep-max but I'll pause half way for fun and maybe throw in a few more reps just cuz."

The video is cut together and we never really do see him rerack the squat or OHP... Hmmmmm.
Lol.
Lol I loved this post. But you forgot sex, Michael...psycho hates sex.
But seriously, psycho, despite you hating 99% of things I (and humans) find enjoyable, you're always super helpful and we love having you around!

I love puppies damnit!
...and sex is overrated.
Nice and smooth man
Thanks for the encouraging words!
Exactly! ~18% is where I'd put me, I am glad other people get the same impression and that I am not deluded.
oh well, maybe I ate too many tacos and cake in Mexico.
...and sex is overrated.
I agree, but I am single so doesn't matter

Holy hell those terrify me lol. Nicely done! Occasionally I try one at 135 for kicks, but it's sloppy and I usually dont bend my legs much. Part of me wants to learn it though!
Thanks! For me, giving power cleans and accessories its own day at the gym made a big difference in terms of progression. They have never felt dangerous to me.

stupid question
for those who foam roll, how do you know the "hurts so good feeling" is just you foam rolling your nerves?
the glutes, for example, how do you know that sensation is mostly due to you putting a ton of pressure on your sciatic nerve?

Dammit, at least pretend to struggle next time.

when i foam roll it's just my back. i just listen to the crack. i don't really foam roll other body parts tbh.
I love foam rolling my legs. Feels good.

I spend ages on my legs. Pretty much have to. Don't really do anywhere else.
Not really sure how to roll your back properly, because I've seen a lot of suggestion that you shouldn't do it at all.
Joining the gym again on Monday after a few months out. Previously I used this split workout:
https://www.muscleandstrength.com/workouts/dougs-mass-building-routine-for-ectomorphs.html
But apparently full body workouts are the way to go? Should I pick one of those routines out from the OP then?
