With all these new bodybuilding threads... would you guys consider me someone who "overdoes it?"

This never happened

We do love our muscle queens. However there is something I need to know about your diet. Do you eat sausage with a bit of cream? That's all we care about honey.

You look great OP. If you aren't using taking anything you are never going to get to that roided out look that many find unnatural and gross (myself included).

But it is an addition, people will start taking things to increase their gains in the pursuit to keep getting bigger.

[quote]But it is an addition

Or an addiction, I'll "oh dear" myself.

It really all depends on your legs. If you have well developed legs your top half would be great. If your legs are skinny, then your shoulders and arms are overdeveloped.

The arms are nice but I think you look kind of puny overall. Maybe you should work out more?

work out those LEGS, dears.

OP is using someone else's pics.

[quote]OP is using someone else's pics.

Possible, but unlikely. A reverse google search shows it is a unique image, so he didn't just steal it from some website. It would have to be someone else's private pics.

R5 and R7 - Fair enough. Granted, I hate doing legs and they are my weakest but IMO, they are no chicken legs. I think they are decent but definitely in need of more hard work.

How does a high school senior already have tattoos?

OP, if it really is you, you'll easily find guys that will want to sleep with/date you. Your body looks amazing and while you have the queens here that will recoil from this look on the internet, they'll drool over it in person, and you'll never leave a club/bar alone if you don't want to. You have an amazing body.

R8 Sorry dude but no. No time for that crap. I legit wanted to discuss weightlifting with cool people on here. No interest in "faking" who I am for the sake of conversation.

R11 I'm from NY. LOL. Tattoos for even guys younger than me aren't that uncommon. At all. My friend (who is a sophomore) has a full arm sleeve already. Not something I would do but it isn't weird to see.

Whoever it is in those pix, he's a gorgeous guy with a great body, but it's really too bad about the tattoos, and he should stop with them right now.

R14 I might get one more on my back (small) but that's it.

Now for the important questions.

Top or bottom?

You look amazing to me. Perfect balance.

OP, I agree with R14. Your tattoos now look fine, but don't go overboard and do full chest ones etc. I hate when guys cover up their bodies like that.

Are you the person that was asking me about melanotan? If so you and I may be the only ones here interested in weight lifting lol.

Avoid melanotan. Use if you want black moles all over. Just tan regular.

R18 No lol. That wasn't me.

R16 Really? Eh, whatever. Vers.

R19, if I don't use melanotan, I get pretty severe burns even from minimal tanning (which is weird because I didn't as a kid). With melanotan I get no burns and an even tan.

OP, getting a lower back tattoo will brand you as a Muscle Mary bottom, so unless you want to be one, I'd avoid that. You don't want to go the Austin Wolf route.

Which gym is that lockeroom pic from?

Your hands look old, but that often happens with bodybuilders. Based on the hands I'd say mid 50s, based on the rest I'd say early 40s.

Go ahead, use at your own risk. Seems odd and quite vain to poke yourself with an unapproven peptide from some chemical "research" company to get a tan. By all means.

Please post nude shots. Thank you.

I have a background in pharmacology/chemistry, so I'm not terribly worried about it.

Based on her eyesight, I'd say R23 is rocking her eighties.

R22 Don't flame me but... Planet Fitness.

Tanning is terrible for you. It causes premature aging of the skin and skin cancer. It's such a silly practice that you will regret when you are older.

[quote]getting a lower back tattoo will brand you as a Muscle Mary bottom

Let's be honest, it probably is an accurate label lol.

Sure R26.

Yeah i think you're overdoing it by a lot, but obviously I'm in the minority. It must be exhausting to keep that up.

Is that really you? Post another pic.

OP, Planet Fitness isn't bad at all especially for the price. I mean, you've gotten results so who cares? I use the gym in my apartment complex and the leg press is broken and the equipment is old but I really don't want to drive 45 minutes to the closest gym.

Too bad you can't send private messages on DL. I'd send you my email/the weightlifting board I post at.

R33 I used to be a regular at bodybuilding dot com but those people are just jerks and assholes ALL the damn time. At least people on here are snarky yet somewhat welcoming and capable of decent conversation. Don't ever go to those boards. One douche after the other.

[quote] have a background in pharmacology/chemistry, so I'm not terribly worried about it.

What does this to do with buying peptides from questionable chemical companies? Are you that weird dishonest guy who uses an extreme amount of anabolics with no anti-aromatase (until I mentioned it) and then he used an excessive amount of that too?

OP:

1) You're hot.

2) Don't overdo it. Don't do steroids or go nuts with your diet/exercise.

3) Work on the rest of yourself. Read. Volunteer. Expand your knowledge and your experiences. Don't live in a gym or a mirror and don't make your exterior the entire sum of your self. Learn to talk about things that interest other people besides fitness, exercise, diet and nutrition. Work your head and heart out as much as your muscles.

4) Enjoy it all while it lasts.

[post redacted because linking to dailymail.co.uk clearly indicates that the poster is either a troll or an idiot (probably both, honestly.) Our advice is that you just ignore this poster but whatever you do, don't click on any link to this putrid rag.]

R35, I'm on my first cycle on week 4. Sorry my only side effects so far have been the sleep loss from tren. And I knew asin was better than the blockers since if you go off of it it can't come back, but when you said rebound I responded that no, I hadn't had one yet because this is my first time taking it and who knows if everything I've read is legit. Calm the fuck down.

And I bought from this specific company because a friend that's been using it for years recommended it.

OP, I don't go to bb.com. Their message boards are filled with trolls and assholes. I post at the board that broke away from that.

I blocked you, how many devices do you use? A-hole. Giving out fakse information. Douche bag creep.

Kill yourself.

This thread is useless without naked selfies of OP.

I believe Cary Grant did limiting tanning his whole life with lamps and such.

I don't know of anybody who aged better.

I guess it is the degree to which you do it.

I assume he also had a phenomenal plastic surgeon to do a bit here and a bit there but he had no desire to look 30 his whole life.

Just his age without looking tired.

This thread feels familiar. Same guy?

If that's really OP: Daaaaaaaaaamn! He's hot AF.

That's a body I could lick from head to toe (or admire from afar.) But some guys these days are seriously overdoing it...

OP what does your diet consist of? Do you work with a coach or nutritionist? Please don't tell me you're into Crossfit :(

What I like OP, is that you're cut but not too vascular. I hate seeing the striations in muscle and every single blood vessel.

Nice body. Not at all overdone. Great shape but no muscle queen which is just grotesque.

[quote]I might get one more on my back (small) but that's it.

I'm sorry you got any in the first place. Why someone would want to work very hard to have a beautiful, amazing body like yours and then mar it with even one distracting tattoo is beyond me.

OP, you are stunning. Your body is beautiful and you should be proud. If I were you, I would stop the tattoos where they are: you've built your body into a temple, and it really stands on its own.

Can you tell us about your nutrition?

An Eagles fan! Get thee to the Linc and try out--you are in good enough shape to give them the help they so sorely need

[quote]They even declare that bodybuilders themselves might be insecure

Posting photos of yourself and asking for validation doesn't would seem to confirm that conclusion. Are you excited that many of the posters want to duck you now?

Well, to be fair, some of us want to be fucked BY him.

Some? I just assumed all of you did.

Not all of us are bottoms, I'm assuming?

OP ask that guy in the pic to fuck me ,

I bet he's got amazing glutes.

OP has fat arms. Stop whatever you're doing and work on a little definition.

No tattoos!! Just be a Greek God.

Isn't that enough?

In all my travels in the museums of Europe I have yet to see a sculpture with a tat.

And this goes back millennia.

Stuff yourself with kale if you must be trendy.

OP, you look great! Just listen R36 and keep going on, expanding your life. You are young, take advantage of your potential. Don't worry about the sun, sun is necessary. Stay natural and get involved with spirituality.

Consider entering gay porn, OP.

"I think it is nice to have a place where people who are into the same thing can chat...."

There's no other internet forum for steroid junkies to discuss their use of illegal drugs?

R61 Fuck you. I don't take steroids asshole. I know I'm supposed to reply with "thanks" because if you think I do, I must be pretty decently sized in your eyes but the assumption that I do is really fucked up. I don't even use protein or supplements, let alone steroids.

R36 R59 Great advice from the both of you. Took it to heart.

OP, that guy's an idiot. He clearly has no idea what someone who takes steroids looks like. Guys that go to the gym see someone buff and automatically think OMG STEROIDS because they've never lifted a weight in their life.

Just keep working out and becoming a better person mentally as well. Don't do porn even if you become broke, your future prospects will be ruined forever. Same with escorting. The past always comes back to haunt. Hopefully you're going off to college in the fall?

Multiple people have you asked you about your diet, OP. You describe it as "strict" but why don't you answer the questions about it? What are you dodging?

He's 18. He can probably eat whatever the fuck he wants and get gains anyway. I did when I was that age.

For cutting to get like that I normally do 1800 cals a day (which is really hard, if you burn more calories you can cut by 300-400/day to still lose) and it looks something like this:

Breakfast: Greek yogurt (Chobani)- 100 cals Fruit of some kind (1 serving) Apple, pineapple, banana, grapes or whatnot Protein shake

Snack: Almonds

Lunch: 6 oz. chicken 1-2 cups steamed broccoli 2 oz. cheese

Snack: Wheat thins or some other carb of some sort (200 cals) Protein shake

Dinner: 6 oz. chicken Veggie of some sort

Before bed: Protein shake or some cottage cheese for slow-digesting protein overnight

I normally don't do protein shakes all that much but on calorie restriction and trying to eat clean I find it really hard to keep calories up there without them. Low carb diets make me lose bloat like crazy and after a few weeks the weight comes screaming off. If I plateau I do a refeed for a few days and consume lots of carbs, then resume the diet again.

Work as an escort!

Don't you ever get bored with that, R65?

R67, incredibly so. But it's only for cutting down to where I want to be, then resuming maintenance calories.

R65 is a troll.

No, I'm not. On another board I post at, I did mention the tren dosage and they said to cut it in half by only doing every other day so I may have been overdoing it with both the tren and asin (they said to do every 3 days with it, not every day or every other day). Thank you for cuing me about it though because otherwise I wouldn't have questioned it.

I love all these, "OP, you're hot" posts. Jesus Christ, you don't think he already knows that?

I think you should chill. If you get any bigger, you will look like a circus strongman.

Looks like OP is a lying liar.

DL catfish.

Who is Shilly winters at R9 covering for this 0/10 douche?

Do it yourself R74. If you reverse google search the first image linked in the OP, it doesn't find anything. But yes if you were to go on and reverse google the second image, it does.

But yes this OP is definitely a catfisher, the own of the instagram is straight.

Quads look great, just punch up those calves to match!

Busted. Don't hide now!

[quote]They even declare that bodybuilders themselves might be insecure or have image issues that result in them never being satisfied with how they look.

QED

Dude looks just like me, whassup with that?

OP sounds exhausting.
