Do you have a pump in these? You look like you have a serious pump!
I am jealous as hell that you don't have moobs at your bodyfat level. I would say you and I are pretty damn close regarding BF but you don't have that dreaded moobage I got going on... Either way looking good and I see an improvement, or a pump one of the two because you do look better in these pics to me.

No doubt, I was so annoyed, I kept ordering what should have been big meals only to be frustrated by not getting much actual food and hardly any meat!!! It wasn't until I got to the airport to leave that I ran into a place called The Burger Joint, and they had DAMN GOOD BURGERS!!!! Patties were 2/3lb, and I got myself a double meat, double cheese and large fries! The meal I had been waiting for the entire time and was on my way out at the airport...
I definitely recommend The Burger Joint to anyone who see's it in the SFO airport for sure. I will definitely go there next time I end up back out there for work.
Between Fogo De Choa and The Burger Joint I must have eaten over 3 lbs of meat in less than 14 hours... adding fries and a real rootbeer to that and yeah my weight was up a bit Sunday morning but with the restroom breaks I have had already today I am guessing I am closer to 210-211 again.

HA! Your arms are huge on your frame! Thanks though!
Thanks Brother! I was trying to walk that tight rope between enjoying myself and going too far. I feel it came out pretty good.
I know right! He is such a good looking dog. You know I gots love for him, I didn't have the heart to cut him out of the pics... So some of them are a wider view just for him. LMAO!!!!
Well I want the invisible kind like you have then. If I didn't have the moob issue I would be perfectly happy walking around at 15-20% BF... wouldn't worry about abs. It is the saggy and pointy moobs I have had since I was 11 that I hate and I have to be super lean for them to go away...

This is so true, Days I work from home I’ll run a 10k, eat, lift for 90 mins and still feel way more energised than the days I sit on my a55 in the car or train for 10 hours......I travel a fair for work, takes it out of you.

I don't know. He started talking and my brain just went into autopilot and next thing I knew I was traumatized. I guess I was like a fly to a bug light?
Great work Chris! I need to get some update photos up, I will.
Brother, 20 pounds is great in a pretty short time to be honest. That is a lot of hard work!
As for me, I had another weight workout tonight.
Squats: 265x13 (+1 rep) and 295 x4 (+1 rep)
Bench presses: 185x13 (same), then a drop set of 235x3 (+1 rep), 225x1, 215x1,205x1,195x1,185x1.
Barbell Curls: 80x15, drop set 1x105, 1x95, 1x90, 2x85, 2x80.
I probably should have gone to 100 instead of 105...did 5x95 last time...
Lying French presses: 12x61 (-2 reps), 4x91 (+1 rep) superset with Rope Press Downs 4x45.
Today's diet is pretty average. I made some cupcakes with 1/2 cup rolled oats, 1/2 cup fat free Greek yogurt, 6 egg whites, 3 scoops of milk protein powder, 1 cup almond milk, 1 tbsp baking powder and 1/2 tbsp baking soda and 3 tbsp cocoa powder.
The total macros foe the entire batch are 675 calories, 111 g protein, 51g carbs, 15 g sugar, 10 g fat. I ate those throughout the day, had 2 topped with 200 cals worth of peanut butter after dinner.
For dinner I had 1/2 pound chicken, 1 bag broccoli and 1 cup rice. I am guessing a little that it is around 700 calories for all that as the chicken was from a roaster and the rice is was roughly a cup.
Puts me at about 1600 cals for the day....

Thanks! I think they are right around 17 3/4-18 cold flexed maybe a little under. I have tiny joints though so it makes them look even bigger than they are.

Tonights lift...
Finished my workout and man I am probably gonna be limping tomorrow!
Front Squats Bar x 15, 95x10, 145x10, 185x8, 225x5, 245x5, 275x5, 295x3, 315x2, 225x10, 225x10 - did 2 sets of 10 to increase volume over last time when I did a widow maker style set for 14 reps.
SSB Squats - 245x10, 265x10, 295x5, 295x5, 295x5, 295x5 - These were challenging sets but not ball busters except the last one was
SSB Reverse Lunges - 115x5 per side, 115x5 per side, 115x5 per side, 115x5 per side. Man these hit the core I did them alternating and good step back.
My legs are still wobbling those ssb reverse lunges were challenging to get nailed down took my stabilizers a bit to really figure them out.

Kleen, you were in the bay? You should have messaged me, I would have hung out with you.

Thanks! I am giving it hell to get some improvement going on there now that Hyde reminded me I needed to be working toward that 405!
That's cool, was just giving you another option. Although often if you choose to they will allow you to move it to another contest, or into a different category within the show. If interested just email the promoter to see. If not don't sweat it, you won't be the only person there who has used something. Some of them will have used stuff all through prep...
LMAO!
I asked you about it in your log once or twice a couple weeks before I went, but assumed you must not have been in the Bay area since you didn't respond. Didn't want to be pushy by PM'ing too.

Okay guys, one more time of trying to figure out what class everyone is in. So many posts in here that it is hard to keep up.
To make this easier on myself I am going to keep it really simple...
I have decided with my elbow and a few other things that I am going to be running some HGH that was given to me recently. I don't know that I will run any anabolics or not but I am going to run the HGH at 2IU a day for the next 3 months. I don't even know if it is legit but I am hoping so, the person i got it from can definitely afford good stuff so more than likely it is g2g! Either way this puts me in the Assisted category again, but I think this will be more beneficial to me and my joint health than anything else. I expect a little faster fat loss but not too much in size assistance.
If you are going to run any type of hormonal PED, whether that be a SARM, PH, AAS, Peptides, or HGH during this contest then LIKE / Thanks this post.

Is 220mg test/w enhanced? If it is, then I may take it up a notch (or two). To be honest, I still haven't started a disciplined diet approach anyway, may go into a full blast on this.

Yeah, she was just playing hard to get. puccah8808 likes it when you give chase. She was probably hoping you would show up on her doorstep un-announced.
MrKleen73

I would say anything over 200 is definitely enhanced. Even 200mg is pretty high for TRT and gets most people out of normal ranges. You can get put on TRT at some internet places and run quite a bit higher but you are more than likely out or normal ranges running 200mg... I sit around 1000-1100 on 150mg a week.
LOL, I would have surprised her if I knew where to go to do it. I think she just missed me asking.
puccah8808, next time they send me out there I will be more relentless about getting a hold of you!

That’s very kind of you to say so brother. But I find so many AM members amazing, from those slightly older showing us age is just a number to those with incredible depths of knowledge on fitness and health and many more.
Just a great forum to keep inspired and pushing on.

Totally agreed. But I've seen where you have come from and what you have accomplished and I think a lot of people don't realize just what you have done. Definitely a great group with a lot of big achievements in here. .too many to pick from.
But I wanted you to know I've noticed and see you as one if the group of guys who is truly inspiring.

Missed 405 today on frontsquat. Took 2 shots: first attempt wasn’t tight enough & dumped it forward on the descent. 2nd attempt I did everything the way I needed to but just wasn’t strong enough to come out of the hole - this was right before I fell backwards
