Week 7 of my 21 week run. Been down the past 2 weeks. Went to the hospital the other day and found out I have a herniated disc. So trying to take it as easy as possible but trying to get some results regardless even on my down time. Im not getting to lift like i want to. Posing fucking sucks, I know! Fuck it! I'm trying!

very nice...great work sir
You look fantastic man, EXACTLY the physique I'm going for down the line.
Thank you very much, Bro. Still pushing and striving for improvement everyday.:) Don't lose focus and stay on track and your goals will be very obtainable.

Is surgery imminent for you, or?
Peace

Thanks, bro! No surgery. I went to the chiropractor for many many visits and we got everything straight. No pun. Just have to make sure to wear a belt when I go heavy.:)
LaTTTimer99Sorry in advance for the long post -
Good on you for getting Chiropractic care - it's been a staple of my treatment / injury prevention for years.
Regarding your back; not sure if you'll find this useful or not (especially with your girl) but I started sleeping directly on the floor about a month ago; for me anyways it totally helps get rid of my lower back pain, and seems to help my body "feel" solid again. Every other year or so I'll sleep on the floor for a few months just to get my back feeling strong again
Have you tried Rolfing / deep tissue massage sessions immediately before getting adjusted? I go 2x / week, and always get deep tissue BEFORE getting adjusted - gets you nice and loose first.
Another thing that's made my lower back much stronger is primarily doing front-squats instead of back squats (my understanding is that even with a slipped disc, if you dedicate a training day more often to lower back, building those muscles up and strengthening them more than you already have can actually compensate / act as further support for your spine). My Dad is a DC, so I'm lucky to have been exposed to a lot of interesting stuff. Here's a training sequence + breakdown of my FS routine:

There's always 2 schools of thought on belts - and I don't know which is correct? I've found for me I prefer training without one, because otherwise I start to depend on it too much.
Last parting thought: I don't know why you're hard on yourself about your posing? Looks like you've got everything dialed man! You've got an interesting physique that can win you a lot of shows man. Crazy length and long muscle-bellies - good shit amigo!
Right on peace

AnonDid you add some of these pics? I dont remember seeing all of these.Maybe I missed this.

dude any serious athlethe visits the chiropractor and masage therapist frequently. ,
i suggest a female chiropractor. smaller hands for more precise adjustments.
lifting heavy is rough on you. get checked out brrother.
i recovered from a back injury displaced degenerating discs. while on cycle. while our goals of usiang aas are probably not similar, i feel like you can benefit from tb500 and some good chiropractic work. i couldnt even roll over in bed. end of cycle i was leaner and meaner than ever before in my life. im just warming up on this cycle but i can already see if im injury free i will be the best version of me ever

Thanks, Lou! Lol!

Thank you, Kov. I'll get back to ya ASAP. I suck at answering PMs.
Dude, your back is incredible! Holy shit. +1
Thank you, J!!:-)
SwonkyCan i please borrow those glasses? Looking Shredded bro. Good Werk! +1
Haha! Thanks bro! Weeks 15-21 are going to be mast prop and test prop so im going to really lean out. You can borrow the tie also!
SwonkyMy dude. Keep on keeping on brother. Aint nobody gonna hold us down!
I got to keep on shredding!
Nice work Bro! Maybe you can get mhammed to loan you his pilates tape so you can feel the burn on those legs! LOL ;-P
Hahaha! I'm sure he feels the burn on his vagina... But that's just his Gonorrhea.:-)
Do you ever work on your legs bro?!
I feel like a little elaboration is needed. Forgive me Abaddon for doing a little hijacking of your thread here:). First it doesn't matter if he works his legs or doesn't have any it doesn't take away from how good of shape that he is in. Second post pictures if you want to ask a sarcastic question about whether people train certain parts. We have real BB pros on here who don't come off that way. And even if you are the best BB in the world and you spoke to someone here that way, I will still call you out for it, because it is not what we do here.
Hehehe! Bro, feel free to high jack all you want. Haters are going to hate. Truth is I do train my legs. Could they look a little better? Of course. I don't have the sweeps that I would like to have but I will one day. In no way am I ashamed of my legs though. I feel like I have a great hanging hamstring and I'm starting to get a lot of definition on the top of my quads. But for this dude to come on here and ask stupid sarcastic question like that is ridiculous. No self shots. No real contributions. Nothing. I'm waiting for an IFBB pro to see these pics and tell me where I need improvement. I welcome that. This dude here can kiss my ass though. I bet he doesn't even lift. Ill even put money on it that he's related to Papaswole! Lol!
I appreciate the hijack permission lol. I hate negative stuff and clearly when out of pure jealousy. I look at Bodybuilder he in my opinion has one of the most impressive builds I have ever seen. But not only that he he excellent at helping and giving advice! I have watch him and others Viking, Goth, Grrrl, etc go after people who are negative towards others progress. They give bodybuilding a good name and all the others here who encourage and genuinely are happy for the progress of others. I have no doubt about your legs, and because of your writings I see a future Guru in our midst ;)
That means a lot to me, Bro! I would love to have half the knowledge that BB, Nitti, Viking and TreadM have! I'm going to do my best at contributing to this site and pay my experiences forward. Thank you again, Pank! You'll be at GURU status with me!:-)
Nah! See, I'm what you call a "curl bro". The only time I'm in the squat rack is to do curls. Why? Cause fuck'em! That's why! But ill go ahead and add some picture of my legs from week 5 to try and make you happy. I like your pictures... Oh wait... You don't have any pictures! Hhhmmmm. You're going to come on my shit and ask me do I ever train legs? Get the fuck out of here with your 1 karma and no picture having ass.
Go ahead and throw up some your pictures brother
Did those last night... I'll have him post some pics of his tree trunks... Just for you :-)
timberland? lol
I'll be waiting ;)
Looking good brotha, keep up the amazing work!
I appreciate that, Hulkman! Having to take it kinda easy with this herniated disc in my back but when I get back to 100% I will be more humble and hit harder for sure!
Damn brother that is some great work!!!! +1
Thank you, Sir!
RustyhookerDamn great work there!!
Thank you, Rusty! You have no idea how hard it was to find those glasses!
well done bro!! Looking great... I agree hulk is fire. I know from experience..check out my progress pics from a lil Hulk BREW
Outstanding! You're doing alot of things right. Sucks big time getting injured...props to your dedication +1
Thanks, Supa Fly Snuka! Ill be damned I get 7 weeks into a killer ass cycle and an injury stop me. I'm really pissed that I can't squat or deadlift right now. Give it a couple of more weeks and then we'll see how it feels. My homie "NextBigThing" gave me a link to a couple of lifting belts. I'm gonna check into those. Better safe than sorry from here out.
Cool...u got the old school wwe reference
I have a couple injuries myself at the moment, and am gonna get some tb500 to see if it'll speed up healing. I've never used, but it looks promising and u might look into it as well.
BostonThe delts look insane on the main shot. Arms are getting so big they are leaving the pecs behind. Killer physique dude.
Thanks, B! Yea my chest has always been a lagging area. I'm trying to incorporate more isolation movements into my chest routine so that way the arms won't steal away from the movement.
Very nice bro! What you running for cycle I could use some insight on next cycle
Thanks, Bigfoot! This is what I'm running now.

Thanks Abaddon looks like a nice cut cycle and its def working in your favor bro.. Plus 1 from me..
Great work bro. I know the feeling of being injured and trying to make gains. Do what you can safely as to not exacerbate the injury. Keep up the nice work.
Appreciate that, Denser! Nothing to do but keep on pushing!
