old pic

[Shelby]

I just found this on my computer... a rear double bicep pic from 2005.

I was about 4 weeks out from my first show ever, and I think I was weighing about 175-180 or so.

I was so innocent back then.

Shelby,

Do you remember some of your lifts from back then? I would be interested to see what you were squatting and doing deads with then to now.

Shelby,

I don't really do squats anymore. I don't deadlift all the time either. I know I'm stronger than I was then, but it's not like I'm MASSIVELY stronger. The biggest factor between then and now is just consistency... in everything... diet, training, supplementation, recovery, etc.

Here are some pics from today...

Having a thick back...is this something you have always had? even when you were powerlifting?

I just wish I looked like you did at 175-180.

To a certain extent it's genetic but in that first pic I had already been weight training regularly for about 7 years, and eating pretty good too.

You sure have come a long way in those few years Shelby. The importance of consistency should be discussed more IMO.
