Alright Steemit, I said we are going to get personal so lets do it! In this blog post you will see all sides of my body waist up so I do advise that you click away from this blog post if you do not want to view this. Please note that all measurements where measured on a rest day from the gym, little to none excresise was done at the time of measurements. My current body weight it 194.4lbs
Chest, Abs and Back
Rested:
Chest:
Currently when I rest my chest as I would normally it measures to be 40". I would like to add a few extra inches on to that number but in muscle of course, by gaining muscle in my chest I might actually go down a few inches, as long as I gain muscle and able to bench-press more weight i'm ok with it.
Abs:
Currently when I rest my abs/belly it measures to be 36". I know for a fact that it will be a hard journey to shread off an extra 4 inches but it is a goal that will feel amazing after achieving.
Flexed:
Chest:
When I flex my chest, well when I do what I think is flexing my chest I measure to be 42". Like I said above id like to gain muscle in my chest.
Abs:
When I flex my abs I measure to be 34" thats a whole 2 inches from the rested state. It's amazing the differents in rested vs flexed.
Back:
I'm not sure how to measure your back so I never but I did manage to get some blurry pictures of it so we can compare with future posts.
Arms And Thighs
Rested:
Arms:
My arms measured to be 14" around the bicep when rested, I will be definietly working on adding a few more inches onto my arms. Bigger arms mean bigger lifts right??
Thighs:
My thighs measure to be 37" around. I definitly need to do more squats...
Flexed:
Arms:
When I flex my arms I measure 15" around the bicep, I was a little disappointed to see this measurement because I was almost sure that I had 2 to 3 inches on my rested state.
Thighs:
My thighs measure to be 37" around when flexing them. Cant be missing leg day...
Weight I Am Lifting:
- Bench Press: 155lbs
- Squat: 225lbs
- Deadlift: 365lbs
- Bicep curl: 35 for 8 reps
Final Thoughts:
I have lots of time and room to improve and I will improve from here on out so thats pretty exciting, Some of the images I have uploaded might look a little silly because I had to resize all of them but one, I apologize for all blurry and disfigured images.
