New picture of my biceps, do I have potential?

No pump, haven't lifted since the pandemic, started going to the gym again a few months ago twice a week with my wife doing bullshit routines. The only stimulation is 2 set of light pulls down and 2 sets of light chest machine per week.

Do I have potential?

Why are you only doing two sets of light pull downs and two sets of light chest machine? Does going to the gym with your wife mean you have to train like a female? Seems like you're probably leaving out the 20 min you spend on hip thrusts.

Good question, I thought you would never ask. You see my strategy is to force myself to go to the gym for cardio, I truly hate cardio with an extreme passion, always have. So I do 15 minutes of the stair machine, followed by a quick workout on the machines.

Monday
15 minutes stair machine
2 sets leg curls
2 sets leg extensions
1 set hack squat machine

Friday
15 minutes stair machine
2 sets of pulldowns
2 sets of chest machine
2 sets of ab machine


I intend to bump it up, but I am just easing back into fitness after years of doing nothing at all
