One Year Progress Pics

VTliftVT · Dec 3, 2009

Here is a few comparison pics over the past year while working with Shelby Starnes. I owe him a lot more than just this transformation as he has really helped me in so many other aspects of life.

First pic is me 12/08/2008 @ 235lbs

**broken link removed**

This pic is my first contest on 9/12/2009, weighed in @ 196lbs

**broken link removed**

Current pic of me taken on 11/28/2009 @ 250lbs

Hope to continue having a very positive offseason and putting on as much quality size as possible.

Thanks again Shelby for all of your help and support!

Thanks a lot guys! I really appreciate the positive comments and it certianly helps keep me focused and on track.

I am 6'1'' tall so I have a LONG way to go in order to fill out my frame better. The 250lbs is also quite a bit of water retention but the number still looks pretty cool on the scale

As far as diet and training is concerned, I am carb cycling and using the DC training 3 way split currently.

Thanks again!

VTliftVT is one of those guys that takes the bull by the horns, and his physique changes are a testament to that.

I never have to worry about whether or not he's following instructions - it's a given that he's being extremely meticulous with EVERY aspect of the plan, day in and day out.

He's really been a pleasure to work with, not just because he's so motivated, but also because he's a good guy and doesn't let this sport consume his entire life.

I look forward to seeing the changes he'll make in 2010.

The physique from the first picture to the second is not the same!

Great progress! That's a great bodyweight at your current level of bodyfat. Really, really good.

Keep up the good work, VliftVt.

How in the world did you lose 39lbs, then put on 54 lbs all in a year???

Ness · Dec 3, 2009

Vt, you are kicking some ass! Did you get married yet? Your wife must be like...oh hell yeah...LOL.

Thanks again everyone...I can't say there has been too much else in my life that I find more rewarding than the changes I have made in my physique over the past year. I love pushing myself and seeing the changes that I have the ability to make.

Awww...you're making me blush

If it weren't for you and your positive outlook things would be much harder for me. I find a lot of motivation in your words.

Thanks for checking in Ness! Actually I just asked her to marry me the day after Thanksgiving. We have set a wedding date for Spring of 2011 and are both pretty damn excited about our future.

She likes me at the size I am at and say's the only way she'll let me get to 270-280 offseason weight (my goal I have set at the moment) will be that I have to pass my CPA exam first.....looks like I'll be hitting the books hard now
