That's a nice transformation. And kudos to you that you post those in our forum, where bodybuilding is not really that popular . I just admire the dieting discipline of you guys.

Malinor, I spit my dinner out from the amount of amazing in your pictures. I can't believe how much a Starcraft forum has changed some of us.

Thank you all for the nice comments.

Concerning my arms, I hardly train them directly at all. My triceps is just generally big, it was the first 'visible' muscle when I was still fat. And until yesterday I wasn't aware that my biceps looked like this. Though I have to say that I did 20 minutes of robe skipping beforehand, and for some reason that gives me a good pump, haha.

Anyway, for my arms I am doing basically:
+ Show Spoiler +
Dips (close to failure) & Weighted Dips (3setsx5)
Overhead Press (rep range 1-5, and very rarely a set of 10-12)
Push Press (triples or fives)
Chins (close to failure) & Weighted Chins (rep range 1-5)
Pull Ups (close to failure) & Weighted Pull Ups (rep range 1-3)
Ocasionally Biceps Curls and Cable Triceps Extensions, but that's like 1-2 times a month


That's basically it. Really no focus on hypertrophy or much direct work at all. And, for what it is worth, I barely missed a workout during the last 1 3/4 years. Consistency is everything I feel.
Though since I gain fat so easily, it is only fair that I gain muscle easily as well. Next year I hopefully have pictures where I got rid of the excess skin on my stomach (though I did a pretty good job hiding it in those pictures).

Thats pretty amazing, Malinor, holy Shit.

I've lost 30lbs in the past 4 months (230 to 200, witch another 30 as my goal), but damn, you're blowing everyone out of the water here. Very inspiring.
