Well heres a well deserved update.. its been exactly a whole year since i started this thread!:crazy:
So I kept lifting up until mid may.. Around that time, I somehow really hurt my shoulder while doing shoulder presses with the barbell. I was out for a good whille. I was out until the beginning of august.. It sucked I believe I tore a muscle or something because every morning I would wake up to a horrid pain in my right shoulder and it would hurt constantly at random times through out the day, so bad I wanted to cry at times. I saw a doc and he didnt recommend a ct scan or anything but said i should lay off hitting the gym for a while.
Well once that pain was gone, I started hittin the gym hard again for a month, gaining a few more pounds and increasing my arm size to 14.75 inches. Then I started college and i really didnt have any time to work out or eat right...i only went in a few times a week to maintain my strength.. So I didn't grow until december, when the semester was done.
When december came i started hitting the gym hard once again, eating right and everything. Today is Feburary 4th, and I've gained more weight (i finally weigh 193 lbs, but maybe a little bit more since that recording was from a week and a half ago) and my arms as of today are 15.50 inches. My chest has grown a bit, but still lagging a bit behind my arms. I'm sure it'll stay like that until I start shredding.
The past 2 weeks have been crazy, cause my arms grew at a rate of a quarter of an inch a week. Thats how my arms initially grew in the beginning, a quarter inch at a week. Im wondering if anyone else experiences a quarter inch of growth a week?
Well anyways I'd like to get up to 210 lbs now before I start shredding. I have increased in body fat but haven't had it recorded. I believe im around 16 to 17% body fat now, but thats not that bad im assuming since i was 158 lbs and 12% BF a year ago.
If only i didn't injure my shoulder back in may, I wonder how much bigger i would have been.. Shucks :/
I'll update once I progress some more in my gains
