This. It's about getting serious now. Pushing every set, focusing every rep, and remembering it all when it comes to feeding.

Not doing Whole 30 or anything like that but being a lot more strict calorie wise (read: snacks, especially at the office).

Good luck brahs.

Maybe one day they won't suck.

Quads looking good. On the calves what have you tried? Remember you commenting on them last year too.

My pecs are my biggest weakness I'd say. Not trying to cope by saying "gyno" but yeah. We will see if it persists in lower body fat ranges.

Again good luck brahs.

There is a difference between actual lumps/tissue underneath the nipple and water/fat. At a higher body fat especially if I'm holding a bunch of water from large sodium intake my nipples will be a lot more puffy and droop more because my chest is pretty damn large. If it's the later then being at a lower bf makes a huge difference especially under 12% for me.

Also random leg pic from like 2 or 3 weeks ago dont think I've ever posted any in a decade. Quads are pretty solid atm still working on hamstrings and calves pretty hard. Hopefully more separation will start to come in soon.

What type of calf raises?

If you're doing seated ones you will not be engaging the calf muscle, gastrocnemius.
Seated calf raises and any calf raises takes the tension off gastrocnemius and hits the soleus.
She approached with her hand extended,. I slowly stepped back. "No" she said. "I just want to shake your hand. You're amazingly gorgeous." As she walked by me she copped a biceps feel.

I don't know that machine.

Do you train your calves as you do other muscles?

app called "gifshop", can't say it makes the most hd quality stuff but it's the only app I found that you can crop video's with as well

my calves didn't respond to high frequency or heavy weight, i had tried every variation of heavy weight and high frequency chit you could imagine. it wasn't until i followed a bodyweight thing a guy on another forum swore by that I started growing. So on my leg days I'll do 4x failure bw calf raises on flat ground (slow and controlled 2 seconds up 2 seconds down squeezing as hard as you can at the top) with my arms leaning on something (so hips out behind you), then a static hold 4x failure for each leg. then standing straight the same thing. It sounds like a lot but you can rip through it in 20min max, and when you first try it you're going to be embarrassingly weak at it, i thought i had strong calves and remember struggling to get 5 solid reps after the first set
