Of Course You Know How Photos Are, Right ? :)

[Fish Chris]

I "wish" I looked this swole / ripped all the time

But of course I was fully pumped, and my photography buddy took about 120 shots.... 3 or 4 were just okay..... then their was this one I guess this is like the 5 lb bass, that looks 12 LOL

I'm just waiting for the day I can get 120 photos taken, and the crappy ones look as good as this one LOL

5 years ?

Peace,

Fish

Thats what hard work will get ya Chris. Nice job.

[Raider Nation Fisher]

Dang it boy. Amazing how that works with the pictures ain't it. I've noticed that with some of mine too. In some I look massive, yet in a a few of them I look beastly. Keep up the hard work homie.

[Fish Chris]

Much thanks guys

Hey Raider, that was your 1,111 post.... Coincidentally, my first double digit bass was an 11-11 Ever since then, I see that number all the time LOL

Peace,

Fish

Nice keep up the hard work.

I'm gonna have to have my lifting buddy start taking pics of me he always asks cuz he has me take some of him every month to show progress but I refuse to do it I hate having my picture taken but now im starting to wish I had more before after pics. I hear ya on wishing to look that swole all the time also I feel the same way right after a good day at the gym and every vein is popped out and all that blood is in the muscles looking ripped. Yesterday was one of them days we did Bi's/Forearms and towards the end we were flying threw our workouts doing super sets with no breaks burning out our muscles hitting failure it felt great not so much today lol but it was great yesterday today was a triceps abs day and my abs are smoked.

That comes from catching all of those hawgs.

[GrundleLove]

2 dudes...one with a camera and the other one in a tank top flexing while getting 120 pictures taken.

that's not creepy at all i swear....

in all serious lookin svelte.

[Fish Chris]

Thanks again guys

Clayton

cuz he has me take some of him every month to show progress

Every month ?

I've been taking a good handful of photos lately, because its been close to 1 year since I took any last. I've been lifting for just about 2 years. Plan to take photos about this time every year, from now on. At my age, I don't expect to see any real gains in less than a year anyway.

Don't plan to ever stop lifting, until I'm ready to hang up the towel. The way I am, if I ever fall off of this wagon, especially now that I'm older, I'll be dead in less than 5 years. Seriously. Weight lifting, and this health and fitness kick is what pulled me back from the brink of disaster ! I'd have to be a comple idiot to ever let it all go now !

Peace,

Fish

Now how did you know that? I mean I know your in the front rocking the motorcycle helmet. But I thought the war paint disguised my true identity.

Outstanding photo.

Great background and lightning.

I would say 3 years max if you stay on your routine.

[llPa1nll]

Great Job Fish! Keep up the great work!

[Fish Chris]

Thanks again guys

But Sam, 3 years max ? Don't follow ? I thought maybe I had mentioned my 50 year old goal (27 months from now) of being at 225@ 9% BF.... but looking back at the thread... no....

You wouldn't mean like > And then I have made it, then I can kick back and relax... would you ? LOL

This is really a "for life" thing to me. I hope to be still lifting in 13 years... more

Peace,

Fish

I plan on continuing for life as well but im much younger 25. I started off in February at 5'9 207 im now 170 even not sure BF% still kinda high id guess im having a hard time kicking this last bit of flab around my belly. Id like to stay between 170-180 but trade in this fat I have left for lean muscle. Have you tried the P90x or Insanity work outs iv done both and they will leave you more pumped and and sore then doing just weight lifting but I don't like not being able to walk so i don't do it often lol.

Tell the truth that is what happens to you when fishing for BERTHA, lifting those huge bags of fish gives you muscles. Stay healthy and post some pics of that cool truck you have and of course more fish!

no then we would all be teen age boys and surrounded by "friends" that we've never met or had a intelligent conversation with and we just seen a thumbnail pic of cleavage and became there friend lol or commented on

[Redlinerobert]

Good job Chris. Keep at it!

[GLADES]

I remember some of your old posts talking about making some changes in your life.

You are doing great Chris!

I just proves even guys at your advanced age can get ripped..

Are you taking any supplements? How much do you work out each week?

I need to lose 50-70 lbs. I want to be able to see my pee stream again....lol

[deaknh03]

So, besides the cleavage, what do we do here?

[Fish Chris]

Thanks again guys.

Glade, I can't take creatine .....as it messes with me afdter a week or two. I just eat REALLY healthy, and I eat a LOT {av 4000 cals a day} shoot for 200 gm protein a day. Was eating mostly natural for a while, but back to a whey shake every day too.

I workout alternating muscle groups 5 days a week + cardio 3-4 days a week. So if you call cardio a "workout" then I work out about 1 to 1 1/2 hours a day, 7 days a week.

To be honest though, it would be hard for me to "not" workout ! Addicted to the pump..... and SO far to go

Peace,

Fish

What's up fish!? I really don't come around the forum more than a couple times a year lately, but I remember when you initially made your awesome transformation. I've been lifting now just over 2 years, and like you, I was pretty fat, unhealthy, and just not happy physically. Like you, I'm gonna lift weights til I can't walk...and maybe longer than that

I have lots of progress pics on my phone, but you guys definitely don't wanna see me wearing tight little boxer briefs lol....so here's the only recent pic I have. I went from 220/225 down to 168 and shredded in the summer of 2010, then been on a slow bulk since then. Sitting around 185/187 lately, around 10% bf.

[GLADES]

Not a good idea taking photos in the locker room...

Congrats on getting in shape.
