I think we should have a seperate thread for that. I'll shoot the first one.
EDIT: Fuggit let's just do it here.

1.96m. I've been bulking for like 10 weeks now, you shoulda seen me begin summer haha. Planning on cutting for a little bit and then another 10~ week bulk stretch. Gotta add about 7kg of straight muscle mass to hit my goal for the end of this year, although if I hit a lean 97kg on June 2014 then that'll be 30kg gained in 3 years which is also decent.

Thanks man! Doing my very best haha. I had brain surgery twice in the last four months, and I still think I'm small as hell. But if I keep at it for another year I think I'll look ok, and then another year or two before I'll look like I lift haha. Gonna need to weigh 100kg+ before my arms and shoulders are gonna look decent I'm afraid.

EDIT: You guys should also post pics yo. Especially curious about Cambium (cos he was ripped a year ago) and phyre, because he's about the same height as I am. gogogogo

I guess these will be considered my before pics? I've been training for like almost 4 months but I took a month and a half long break because I was really busy. Anyway none of the pics are that impressive. I'm ~145-150 lbs, ~15% body fat, but that's a complete guess. Online calculators give me completely retarded results (11% body fat? Lol yeah right...) so here are my pics.

And yes, I know that I have retarded amounts of hair T_T

Age: 23               Height: 6'4" / 193cm               Weight: 185lbs/84kg

Starting Date: 01/06/14                                      Goal Date: 04/12/14

Weight goals -- Back to 200 lbs, as lean as possible. It's 13.5 weeks, so just over 1Lb/week.
                Will evaluate cut/bulk/recomp when I hit 200.

Training goals -- Dead 180kg. Squat 140kg. Bench 100kg. 
                  No numbers, but improve on pullups/rows to the same degree. 
                  Start doing cardio 3x/week.

Nutrition goals -- Track my calories again.

Sleep goals -- Get to bed by 1 AM on nights I'm not on call. 
               Sleep less during the day.

Misc/stress goals -- Stay ahead of classwork. 3.5 average last semester, want (need) that 4.0. 
                     Pick up another part time job. 
                     Do yoga instead of just planning to do yoga.

I'll take before pics at the gym today. We're supposed to get 3-4 inches of ice and up to 5 feet of snow by wednesday.... sure as hell not going to miss the chance to lift while it's still clear outside.

This is as much an update as a resolution for next year:

In terms of fitness 2013 sucked majorly for me. I teared my meniscus in December 2012, had surgery in March 2013 but never recovered anywhere close to where I have been before. I am basically in pain every day and my left leg is massively weaker than my right by now making every activity incredibly imbalanced.

Here are my stats over the few major lifts I could do last year:
+ Show Spoiler [2013 Lifts] +

Year over year I went:

DL: 145 -> 100
Bench: 90 -> 80
Squat: 100 -> 50
Press: 62 -> 55
Clean: 65 -> 0

For next year all I want to have is functioning legs again. I am currently trying to get that imbalanced fixed by doing lots of single leg exercises (leg press, extensions, etc). Putting in BW squat and light barbell squats as well.

Some good news is that I can deadlift again with little pain. I even ran for 2 minutes the other day, although that quickly started hurting badly in my knee.

A dream would be to be able to ski again next year, which is my favorite thing to do in the world and is a huge part missing in my life currently.

I don't have any more specific goals, just want to get healthy again. A 100kg bench would be nice, but past 80kg my progress is incredibly slow so I don't know how realistic that is.

In terms of weight, nutrition etc: I picked up all the weight I lost in the hospital and after surgery, but unfortunately it is mostly fat. I would be happy to stay at 72kg but increase my lifts back to where they were and beyond. Not really concerned about weight in general though.
I am still eating fairly cleanly. Things I still want to improve is to make an effort to buy ethically produced meat and consume less caffeine again.
