In the spirit of clarity, here it is, hanging sides and all, the smallest 'getaway stix' I have ever had (since passing puberty). But, I've got three weeks back in the gym, a fully loaded creatine monohydrate and solid plans for my first program come March 1st if I can get everything in place. BMI: 31.8 (100kg/5'10.5") BF: 23.61 (declaring a 40" waste)

BLW5000Go, brutha ! +1
Three cheers for that man!
Very gutsy mate and definately going to see some huge development in the coming months.
Thats some balls right there , +1 , i can see u really fucken ripped in a year by ur attitude. good shit bro, u got me pumped for some reason FUCK YEA. get on the diet and training and dont juice until u lose the BF for maximum results
Thumbs up from me for posting the before look on your journey! That type of humility and strength will take you far. And clearly it is easy to see your muscle maturity underneath your BF. A lot of geniuses around here with priceless info for getting in shape, I hope you benefit from them as I have. Good luck brother!!
Id hold off first cycle at least 6months. Musvles grow faster than connective tissue and with 8 years off...you're setting yourself up for a torn ligament. Gotta build slowly, daily bro. One cycle is 6months natty growing in just a few Weeks. Also, if.muscles aren't fully trained and rearing to go, you won't gain as well either. It's like adding nitro to a Ford pinto. Your body wont process it properly.
Yes, you have a good base started. Keep going hardcore. Glucosamine to beef up them joints. Hold off a while to avoud injury.

If you give it some time to condition everything you'll get much better results and be much less likely to tear anything
And the food gurus can have him in fighting weight quickly.
yea bro i fucked up my shoulder bench pressing because of this take it slow at first.
I do rotatorcuff exercises before any pull up, bench, or shoulder press and I've never injured my shoulder since
Shoulders and lower back seem to be the common ones. After 8 years off...this guy needs a good restart
shirlsguyI'm sticking to the basics last three weeks, one day for each prime mover per week, Chest, Legs, Back, Shoulders and mixing up the forearms and light biceps on the lighter exercises. I give the triceps a day mixed in with biceps, but I keep it light, they get a pounding all week long anyhow. I haven't loaded any bars yet, keeping completely to machine work - using dumbbells only for my heavy presses (flat bench/military press). Definitely listening to advice on tearing myself, the cramps are so persistent... they scare me the most, probably from drinking at Christmas and letting up on the water... I keep a glass of water with me all day long. You are all right about one thing... the strength comes back fast, but man how the rest of the body rebels! The six months part above though... hmmm. Let's see what we can do about this BF level, but I really have my hopes high for March... still, that was based on advice from people who know, so perhaps my expectations need adjusting.
Cramps?
And you'll get there...just keep working. There's big differences though as you move from machines to free weights. Free weights after a few months machines and reps will again boost you up. Free weights is where the joints will really strengthen because all those lil muscles struggle for balance.
shirlsguyMuscle spasms or knots... used to always get them in the calves unless I did about fifteen minutes of stretch and warmup. A decade later, they pop up in my shoulders, lower back and right abdominals... go figure. Too many doritos and not enough iron. I have gym with free weights on 15th so pressure is on.
breakingfaceWelcome back. The iron has been waiting for your return. I strongly suggest running a calorie deficit until you bring your fat down to healthy levels. Too many beginners want to pack on immediate size before addressing their high bfs. It's also the quickest way to change your appearance and keep yourself motivated.
Looks like a good base to start with.Have fun getting back into shape.Just be ready for some sabotage from the woman.Every time I start losing weight my woman buys me bags of peanut butter cups and twizzlers.lol
Hey brother, +1 for having the balls to post a few pics. Take some time, learn, dial in the diet, and work your ass of in the gym and you should be able to get some serious growth without compounds for quite a while.
This is a great place to start. Good luck bro.
The base is there bro, just chip away at it. Won't take no time at all. Look at the changes some people made in 2 months in the EBC. Just gotta do it, then your kids will be showing your pic to their friends!
