btw this pic took AGES to take because i didnt have the tripod i normally have and had to balance the crappy cam i have on books etc to set it up.

[jono]

Nice one. You're bulking at the moment eh?

yep trying to put on some descent size, and im making some good gains so far

[Tammy]

You're getting some good width in the lats, when the BF comes down a bit that will be an impressive rear lat spread

[Growth]

im hot on your heals mate, weighed in today at 91.5kg, ON WITH THE BULKING!!!!!

[Simo]

Good effort bro, Looking huge.

[deegee]

Delts and lats look good, dont worry about BF too much while you are putting on the muscle it will all come off later. Winter is always a good time to bulk, doesnt matter if the BF goes up no one sees!

You guys will be up to the 100kg mark soon and nipping at my heels

thanks man .. yeah it was weird i was a lot stronger today than normal lol

[deegee]

nice workout, what is the diffence though in the overhand under hand grip on muscles worked?

[Marcus]

With BB rows, have you tried overhand with no thumbs wrapped around the bar? I find that works the best as it helps take your biceps out of play.

[jono]

i duno. i normally use overhand, i just thought i would give underhand a try. and from trying it yesterday i would say underhand is easier.

[muffinman]

im sure i saw it somewhere but what is your height and weight, (that ok just found it) you look like you got potential to get fairly solid, and are on the way by looking at that photo.
