    Bulking body pics

    If you are serious about making gains, I see two things you need: a good idea of your maintenance calories and a good routine. If you aren't already tracking your calories and your macros, it's the FIRST thing you should do. How can you clean bulk (which is where you gain maximum muscle and...

    6-Weeks Pull Up Challenge

    I had completed 10 sets of 8 by the end of my workout today. I thought, "F#CK THAT! I'm getting 100". I put on Hellyeah's Hush (3:52) and got 8,5,4,2,1 with about 17 seconds to spare. Day 16 total is 922.

    Maxing out with Massmax XT

    Thanks. I'm really happy with my results. I'll admit the pictures really don't look that different. I think my back width shows the most visible change, but again it's very subtle. The scale says I added nearly 5lbs in 4 weeks. The pictures don't say I've made a "beastly transformation"...

    6-Weeks Pull Up Challenge

    I started strong today but struggled to keep churning out my typical sets of 8. Only got 6 reps on multiple sets. Was pretty bummed...till I realized I did a lot more sets than I normally do! Total for the day was still 80. Day 15 total is 822.

    MassMax XT

    5/5 I was chosen to run a 30 day log on Massmax. My calorie consumption was just above maintenance and I was set for a "lean bulk". Typically on a lean bulk my gains are 60% muscle and 40% fat. My goal for the run was to gain LEAN MASS at a better ratio than my typical 60/40 split. I...

    Maxing out with Massmax XT

    Summary: Let's start with "feels". I honestly didn't experience many with Massmax. My hunger was up when I first started, but that seemed to subside a few weeks in. Vascularity was consistent as was "fullness". To be fair, I didn't care much about this stuff and whether they were present or...

    Maxing out with Massmax XT

    Day 30: I had a solid last day of my Massmax run. Did legs. Kept pushing just like I always did. Also did my final weigh-in. Those results were good, I'll save the actual number for my next post, which will be the overall summary. But let's just say I was pleased! Lifting: Pull-ups. Did...

    6-Weeks Pull Up Challenge

    Didn't get around to updating yesterday, but I did get my pull-ups in. I hit 78 yesterday. I had a short workout today but still got 58 more. Day 14 total is 742.

    6-Weeks Pull Up Challenge

    You said it in your first post, it isn't so much about winning, or even hitting the 2,000, but about committing to better yourself. Everybody who has committed seems to be making progressive improvements, your updates are no different. I love this challenge because we're all here doing the...

    Day 29: My last shoulder workout on Massmax. I made the most of it and had a great day! Tomorrow will be day 30. I'll get a final weigh-in and final workout (legs). Full run summary, review, and before/after pictures will be posted by Wednesday! Lifting: I got 91 pull-ups today which is...

    6-Weeks Pull Up Challenge

    Dang! I took the weekend off too (see post above yours), hit the gym fresh, knocked out 91, and was stoked...till I saw your post! Just kidding. Great job man. Keep leading the way for the rest of us! Day 12 total of 606

    6-Weeks Pull Up Challenge

    I was out of town this weekend visiting family, so I only got 45 since Friday. Day 11 and my total sits at 515. But I'm going to spin that "slacking" into a positive: I got some good rest and now I'll be ready for a big week!

    Maxing out with Massmax XT

    Day 26: Big updates today! 1.) I did another spot weigh-in. Weight was DOWN from Monday. Seems like a bummer right? Well my BF was down even more! So even though my weight has been all over the place during this whole "lean bulk", one thing is certain, my LEAN MASS (the important part)...

    6-Weeks Pull Up Challenge

    Leg day. Did pull-ups between sets and got 84 again. I'm on my 8th day and my total sits at 462. Day one I got 10 reps on my first set. Yesterday and today's first set were for 12. So I do think my performance is improving. It'd be great to be able to knock out 20 or more on my first set by...

    Maxing out with Massmax XT

    Day 25: Much like yesterday, I felt like everything was "turned up to 11" when I hit the gym. It makes me sad I'm nearing the end of my run with Massmax because I've really enjoyed the last few week. Lifting: Pull-ups. Did 'em between sets and got 84 again. I'm on my 8th day and my total...

    HokiePride March Mass{MaxXT}Ness has begun!

    I know exactly where you're coming from. I'd rather have somebody just be real and own their dislike for me (if that is the case) than be fake about it! Ironically, I use the gym as an outlet for a lot of that. Hope the Massmax treats you well on the home stretch. I'm down to the last few...

    6-Weeks Pull Up Challenge

    I'm in the same boat. I do them during my rest for other lifts. Gives me about a 3 min break between tries and I get around 8-10 sets. I also dropped all vertical pulls from my current routine to help.

    Day 24: I know it's often said that natty anabolics really "kick in" around week three. I don't know if that's what I'm experiencing here but I felt like a beast in the gym today! Not only did I have a solid shoulder workout, but I got 84 reps on the pull-up challenge! That's my most to...
