is this real?
>>75609931How do I trapmaxx like that?
>>75609931>another r*ddit postall fields. disregard any brown retards below this post that will inevitably bump this thread further
>>75609931why not post the source hmm?
>>75609977Checked SPBPKill yourself OP
>>75609931Unlikely. Doesn't seem like he's on gear either. So it probably took more than a year or those are two different blokes.
>>75609931It's very doable but here's the thing, the right pic is not as impressive as you think. The man discovered overhead lighting.
>>75610230Google winstrol before and after. Same type of body
>>75609931Yes that is very much in line with what you can achieve in one year. The amount of muscle is not impressive at all. This really goes to show that being lean does make you look bigger
/fit/ thinks this is impossible because you all got tricked into thinking aiming for 1/2/3/4 is the way to achieve this.
>>75610230you are brown and dysgenic
>>75609931Perfectly reasonable and realistic one year gains. He's probably a bit on the short side which helps a lot. Just actually try in the gym and get enough protein and sleep.
>>75609977bumping out of spite
>>75610288Man.. I was really hoping to see pics of a dude named Winstrol who did an epic natty transformation.>>75609931IDK, but I want it to be real because then maybe, maybe I have a shot.
>>75609931typical 1st year gains when you actually train for aesthethicspowersharters left bewildered
>>75610788How do you train for aesthetics?
>>75609931its not the same guy lol
>>75610823Isolations with full effort, properly tracking stats and improving on them without increasing rest periods
>>75610850You'd drop compounds entirely?
>>75610877nta but compounds are far too emphasized for most lifters. Don't drop them but don't exhaust yourself on them and then skip isolations either, which a lot of guys do. Bench is great, squat and deadlift in moderation. Remember your curls, your delt work, your tricep isolation.
>>75610877No but I wouldn't let them sap energy. For example on an upper day do a nice bench press but then properly smash out some pec flys and tri press down (etc) too. Not just going through the motions. Both are important but IMO people focus way too much on the compounds to the point where they're basically working on a skill vs really hitting every muscle in the body
>>75610882I do basic compounds of bench, squat, deadlift, bb rows, and OHP, but also have added Lateral Raises, Bulgarian Split Squats, and Hammer Curls. Hammer curls have been scarily easy for me to progress on compared to other lifts
>>75609931I DO WHAT I WANNA DOI SAY WHAT I WANNA SAYWHEN IM FEELING DOWNLOOK IN THE MIRROR AND KNOW IM THEREMY HANDS IN THEE AIR
>>75609974be born with high trap insertions
>>75609931This is realistic for extremely noobie gains if you’re dedicated and under 6’.His arms are like 13” in the after, he just stayed lean and added 20lbs of muscle, which isn’t that much for such a low start as a teenager/early 20’s male
>>75611108>>75609974Either swim or carry/hold heavy things
>>75610788If he trained for aesthetics then why does he look like shit?
>>75611259OP's picture also includes a "before" image for your consideration, retard-anon
The muscle gain is realistic, it's how he inverted his shoulder:waist ratio that is weird.
>>75609931Wtf, how big and long are his traps? His arm length too, like that fucking alien at the end of romulus.
>>75609931He probably hit puberty.
>>75609931he can't escape shouldercelism
>>75611120>if you’re dedicated and under 6’.What if I’m over 6’? Is it over?

>>75611512
>>75609931Yes, its possible.My picrel is me. You will notice in both my pic and OP's, however, the majority of the progress came in the form of losing body fat, not necessarily gaining muscle. To a normie, both I, and the dude in OP's pic, look great, but to /fit/ and to me today, we both look like DYELs.
>>75612096Great progress dude, looking a lot better. How does June 2024 look for you?
>>75611512Lmfao based as fuck
>>75612096The difference is he gained a significant amount of muscle and lost fat, you gained a realistic amount of muscle considering the loss of fat.
>>75612214OP pic had 0 fat to begin with, what do you mean he lost fat? He only gained muscle. It's called a lean bulk. You bulk and become lean simply because your fat amount stays the same but you gain muscle so the total body fat % actually drops by bulking.
>>75609931Damn that's actually really good progress
>>75611474Tallfags are slower to fill out but have higher end potential for strength and aesthetics1 year transformations for tallfags will rarely look impressive, but after 3+ years you will gigamog manlets and normies
>>75611512i demand a fibonacci or golden ratio strength standard for athletic movements ie calisthenics, running, sprinting, jumping, throwing etc.
>>75613749Yeah there definitely needs to be a cardio component in there
>>75611139Heavy shrugs. I shrug 2p+ for 10x3 and my traps burn for a week after.
>>75611512> 0/0.5/1/1.5/2/2.5/3/3.5/4/4.5/5kino. I only wish it went left into the negative numbers too
>>75611512>> 0pl8 BODYWEIGHT LEG RAISE with your feet touching the bar (spinal flexion)> tfw almost touch the bar yesterday but left quad cramps up> tfw haven't even reached 0
>>75613756This summer, I plan on doing a greekbro-split. Do something like>jumping day - high, long, hopping, bounding>sprint day - 15m, 40, and a few 100m>throwing day - throw a kettlebell in a shotput and discus style>running day - maybe some 400m, maybe something like 5-10km>wrestling/boxing day - might just join a martial arts gym and fuck around lol
>>75609931nothing is real on the internethttps://m.youtube.com/watch?v=cUR4up6EBLA
>>75611512>> 0pl8 BODYWEIGHT LEG RAISE with your feet touching the bar (spinal flexion)>> 1pl8 OHP (upward push)I'm so close>> 5pl8 LEG PRESS (horizontal squat)I think I've done more but those machines are all different
>>75613797Tbh until a really high strength level just improving strength gives you more power than training power directly. I would just run for cardio but really even that is unnecessary if you wrestle/box. Until you can squat I think 3.5 plates and have corresponding other lifts - just lift and do martial arts. It's gonna give more return by building that base
>>75609931The picture on the right is a perfectly reasonable natty physique. Going from Noodlearms McGee to the pic on the right in 1 year natty is completely unrealistic unless the kid had the most fortuitous puberty imaginable.
>>75613812I have been thinking of this. I'm thinking in the new year I might run a real simple pure strength program, something like PttP. Winter is barbell season.
>>75611512All these elite lifts and then 5pl8 leg press lmao.
>>75613681>1 year transformations for tallfags will rarely look impressive, but after 3+ years you will gigamog manlets and normies.Thank you anon. I’ve been working out for a year and my gains aren’t really much but I feel like I’m building a good foundation
>>75609931He's still pretty dyel so I'd say possibly yes, but I don't think someone who looks like left has the genetics to actually put on that amount of muscle in a year naturally
>>75611120>added 20lbs of muscle, which isn’t that muchKys dude
>>75615020depending on the machine it may be hard. Maybe pendulum squat would be better
>>75611512> no rotation
>>75611512>>1pl8 OHP (upward push)>>4pl8 ATG HIGH BAR SQUAT>>4.5pl8 deficit deadliftI know this is a meme made by someone who doesn't even lift, but good heavens at least try to make it a little bit realistic?
>>75615489> 1pl8 OHP is unrealisticLMAO at the DYEL.Protip: 1 in 1/2/3/4 is literally 1pl8 OHP, which is preserved in that system
>>75615489>>>4pl8 ATG HIGH BAR SQUAT>>>4.5pl8 deficit deadlift>I know this is a meme made by someone who doesn't even lift, but good heavens at least try to make it a little bit realistic?None of these are "unrealistic" but yeah for it to be more proportional you would have 1.5 OHP there
>>75615499>>75615511Holy fucking low-IQ morons, I mean the proportion is completely retarded. 1pl8 OHP is a joke compared to a fucking 4pl8 squat and anyone who actually lifts knows that, plus it's completely out of line with the whole aesthetics autism since it's basically proposing you should have dyel shoulders and "tumor" quads
>>75611512This meta stuff is very homo. Just increase weight and or reps and fo us on different muscle groups by eyeballing and feel.
>>75609977Yes, i'm a brown retard. Thank you daddy
>>75615466>ignores the second half of the sentence, which includes a qualifier, in the context of whether or not he's nattyCan't tell if you're a genetic failure, roidtranny, or just illiterate but yes 20lbs of muscle first year of lifting is possible natty for untrained teenagers.
>>75616127>eyeballing and feel.
