My shots..

[BBAddict]

So, where do you think I should focus my attentions? What looks the weakest in my pics?

Definitely see some improvement in overall development of muscularity.
As far as what looks weakest, it's hard to say without seeing leg shots. Only posting pics of upper body makes me think maybe lower body needs most work! As far as upper body, I would focus on bis and back width--especially if you really intend on competing in the heavyweight class-you will need the width.

Yeah, stupid rotten bis. That is what I see as my weakest point.. That you saw anyway. :) My legs are not bad, but not great. I know I could use some work there. I will try to get some shots up.

I am thinking that if I consider competition, I am not going to go into the HW class right off the bat. The competition is just too huge at that level. So I am thinking that I should probably cut to middleweight. Where are the weight classes anyway? I know middleweight is in the 200's, but I don't know the exact weight. I am sure I could cut to 210 without losing much muscle. Here is my standard bi and back workout, comments are welcome.

Bis.

4XDumbell bicep curls
4XDumbell hammer curls
4XEZ Bar curl
4XCable hammer curls (using a rope, typically)
4XCable straight bar curls

Back.

4XWide grip pullups
4XNarrow grip pulldowns
4XBack extensions
4XWide grip rows
4XNarrow grip rows.

Yeah, pretty basic. Let me know where I could make some improvements, and overall comments.

Thx.

Entirely too much volume. Youre way overtraining. 20 sets of bi's, then followed by 20sets of back... wow...

[BBAddict]

That would be overtraining--at least for me. I know higher volume works well for some people (like Lee Priest) but I have not had much success with it. I actually grew much more off doing about 12 sets total. I do like the inclusion of hammer curls cause I've found those really enhance the shape/fulness of the bicep. Do you do bis and back on their own days or do you do them with other body parts?
I love wide-grip pullups for lat development--just make sure you're getting full extension/contraction on each rep. I have seen and have failed myself to do this and it really hurts the development of the full length of the lat. Are you also doing dead lifts as a substitute for back extensions some weeks? As far as the rows, I would make sure you're doing free weight rows in addition to machine rows. Things like barbell rows and unilateral dumbell rows can really make a difference, especially if you are not using them on a regular basis.

Good to see you back man. Looks like you've made some improvements. Is it your b-day today too? Happy b-day man.

let's see wheels bro, it's hard to critique without at least one full body shot, as for the arms you are over training those suckers big time - back off it and just keep hammering the big muscle groups and they will keep up.

Well, that workout I gave you is my arm workout AND my back workout. They are done on 2 seperate days.

My legs are nothing great. I just don't want to train them much anymore because they are getting too big to get into normal pants. I think that if I look to compete, I will try to bring them up. But for astetics, they are as big as I want them.

deads,pullups,rows bro, tried and proven - if you are eating enough your back will swole up doin em.

[Gods Son]

Your coming strong bro....Keep it up.

[JUICE]

lookin good

[rvgfrth4g]

Doing good! I just wouldn't slack off on the leg development just because you can't fit into pants. Hell if you're geneticly gifted with legs then be proud and push them harder. Not everyone has good legs... Anyone can have a good set of arms but not legs.

[wheyman]

wow...yeah, you are definitely overtraining arms.

Great transformation. Thanks for sharing your pictures. What would you say are the top 3 things that led to your transformation?
