Codeerror's fitness thread (with pictures!)

Dont beat yourself up as results slow and you extract every last drop of potential out of yourself. Your dedication and determination are awe inspiring and something to be incredibly proud of mate. You've shown a maturity and a desire to produce results that are an example to so many that I'm not sure you realize.

I second that! Your effort goes beyond what many people even dream of doing, don't ever underestimate your potential and hard work.

Hi!
I'm still around. Not doing anything new, just hitting the gym 4 times a week
I almost forgot, a few weeks ago I accomplished one of my personal goals, to benchpress my bodyweight x1,1 and squat my bodyweight x 1,25.
Benchpress was easier than expected, so I'll focus more on pull-exercises, with doing more pullups as the goal. The squats were okay, but there's still lots of room for improvement.
These weights might not seem heavy to some, but I've improved my 1rm benchpress with almost 90% since I started

have you read mark rippetoe's book, starting strength 2nd edition? its full of AMAZING details about the compound exercises, e.g. telling you how to use squat correctly, with pictures and more

Looking good, code. Now try 1.5x bodyweight for the weight

No, but I've just ordered some books (that one too!) from amazon
1,5X is the new goal.

thumbs up!

im doing SL 5x5, its great fun! =P

 

[codeerror]

Chest workouts can cause shoulder pain, and is the more likely of workouts to produce them. Most chest exercises use the same muscles and encorporate the same shoulder motions as the bench press and flyes.
Are you doing bench press with a narrow grip? If so, try doing it with a wider grip.

 

[codeerror]

Also doing bench presses with a curl grip (I know it sounds weird), is good if you have a rotator cuff injury.
This is a killer for the tricep lateral head too.

Small update.
I don't know if it shows that they are bigger than before, but some jeans and boxer briefs are definitely feeling tighter.

 

[KaraBulut]

Leg pics, yay!

Yes, your quads have gotten bigger.

One thing I've learnt is that you need to start before seeing any progress
Don't forget the back!

Have been looking over this thread over the passed few days.

Great work code, I am currently in training to join the Royal Naval Reserves and need to drop my weight from 90kg to 83kg but I am finding it really hard to do.

Thank you.
What are you doing to loose weight?

 

[codeerror]

Leaving you for 4 or 5 days. I'm going to Krakow in Poland with some friends.
Think I need a little pause from the gym anyway.
I'll be back Friday, with pictures

 

[codeerror]

Back... And back!

This one also show my operation scars. I could have been in a wheelchair now, but instead I'm running around =)

 

[Corny]

How was Krakow? There are often cheap flights to Krakow from here, I did think about going there a few times

That back view is damn impressive, imho you are now at exactly the right amount of muscle. Where it is really athletic but not a b******lder.

From the scars I guess that you somehow injured your lower spine? Fell bad?

It was cold, and cheap!
The scars are from a few years ago when I fought of a pack of wolves in my backyard

You are definately showing some good tone and the pecs are getting more definition as well.

Again, thanks for posting because I need the kick in the butt when I see you update your post!

Really happy that you're doing so well, now!! Take good Care!

And, of course ... no matter what ...

Probably good practice for an outing to the clubs.

Fuck the beer. Tell us about the boys.

 

[Corny]
