It's crazy how fast you go from looking small to absolutely jacked

Srs. 3 weeks ago, I was still getting some soreness in my wrist post surgery so I was taking things a bit easier. Not increasing weight on lifts and just being consistent. Then about 2 weeks ago, the worst of the pain finally disappeared from my wrist and I could start really pushing it with my lifts. In the span of 3 weeks, I went from having a bit of muscle definition to literally having gorilla shoulders and arms bulging like crazy.

Still need to trim my belly fat a bit to bring the entire look together, but it's reassuring that just being consistent for a long enough period will all of a sudden start yielding amazing results. I'm possibly in the best cardiovascular shape right now that I've been in over the past 5 years. Amazing energy levels and can do some wild workouts right now without getting out of breath or losing steam. Always pushing.

Sounds like you need to reward yourself with a 6-pack of modelo, and a g0y slop domino's six topping new york style.

I had some Modelos on Friday, that's the only day of the week when I drink. I stopped eating pizza for my cut.

Progresso Beef & Barley is still on the menu about 1x per week. It's actually a solid meal for evenings when I don't want to cook anything.

My diet and exercise are in a really good place right now, and everything is just kinda clicking.

Damn you should be a coach or something. Gorilla arms and shoulders within 3 weeks is some feat, heard you also got rid of 5 lbs of fat and added on a whopping 10lbs of muscle

He replaced Dominos with Arby's and Mexican food for his cut bro. Keep up
"One day I won't be able to lift any more. Not I won't want to lift. I mean physically unable. That day could be decades from now or it could be tomorrow. All I know is that's the day I'll wish I could lift more than ever. The day I'd give anything for one more workout, one more set, or one more cardio session. So go hard and enjoy every workout, every set, every rep. Because one day you will wake up and you will never get it back."

To be honest, Arby's and Chicken Tacos are significantly more cut friendly than pizza. Probabably only 1/3 the number of calories and higher in protein.

Yeah if you're obese and swapping out Dominos for Arby's and chicken tacos then you probably are cutting lmao

Two of the Large Roast Beef sandwiches at Arby's is 92 grams of protein and 1100 calories. If that's one of your two meals per day, you'll melt fat off.

Just when I think OP can't mogg any harder, he then decided to increase his weights for 3 weeks and all of the sudden he swells up like a tic. The amount of throbbin poosay in OPs area has to have been through the roof the last 3 weeks. Almost seems cruel OP keeps these young hbb's in such a state.

It's been kinda cold, so I haven't been out in public all jacked up since my new muscularity. I'll do it eventually though.

I've had pretty good luck in the past showing up to a beer garden patio in a tank top on a super warm day. Had a couple situations where I started talking to a girl who was there by herself, and if I had an apartment nearby it would have been a 100% smash.
