ParticipantDid I accidentally click on http://www.anorexicpr0n.com?

Participanti put a link there to kind of buffer the shock…
nope. i’m definitely still safely in the lower middle of the BMI chart. I’d need to lose another 10 lbs to get into the “underweight” category. and i don’t think i can really get any ab definition without another 5 lb loss…
my weightlifting routine has kind of morphed into the “eclectic” category. Primarily, I carry 90 lbs of weights up and down stairs as fast as I can; swing heavy steel bars of varying weights around in odd ways to simulate work witha sledgehammer, a shovel, other implements…. front squat with sandbags; and do lots and lots of pullups and dips.

Participantthis would be more the anorexic look….
interesting sidenote; many years of cycling and runing and i still had high triglycerides and not enough “good” cholesterol. weightlifting the last two years slashed the triglycerides and greatly increased the good cholesterol. weird…diet oved toward a lot of powdered protein and water,,,also “raw meal”, powdered plant protein product…

ParticipantThat pic looks like a Carlos Danger message.

ParticipantIf that is you, scaredy, I think you look GREAT despite very tiny “love handles” 🙂
WOW, very inspirational, given the relatively short time you’ve been bodybuilding! I’m sort a “gym rat” myself but, of course, I don’t lift as heavy of free weights as you do or with as many reps.
I think I could also stand to lose ten but that depends on whom you ask :=0
I don’t think I could do the protein-powder thing on a regular basis because I don’t like it so much. I would have to spike it with something else.
CONGRATS!!

ParticipantActually I’ve been lifting almost 2 years, but it’s been ramping up.
If only Carlos danger had focused above the waist the political fallout would’ve been less.
I don’t think those are love handles, I have strangely large and strong obliques.

Thanks for clarifying that, scaredy!

ParticipantUltimately the body is some of the most important real estate to develop and maintain.

Participant[quote=6packscaredy]Ultimately the body is some of the most important real estate to develop and maintain.[/quote]Absolutely. Without it functioning well, nothing else really matters.

Yeah, but it’s pretty much a DIY job. Can’t hire anyone else to do the work. Labor trumps capital.

ParticipantI’m not done. I want those abs in high relief.
Similar urge to women getting plastic surgery but it’s free.

There is no such thing as oblique muscles.
August 30, 2013 at 3:29 PM #764962scaredyclassic
Participant?
Internal and external obliques are I think two muscles. Wikipedia agrees. But I’m actually referring to the outer muscle traverse abdominis.
That outer muscle atop the hip bone by the side. Mine is larger than expected. I also have disproportionately large and finely tuned knees. The remainder is unimpressive.
