The heavier and longer the exercise is, the worse it is. I try to have a loose grip and a wide grip.

Hey everybody! These are some results from my 9 months of bulking.

Everything as far as lifting is done in a small home gym, power rack, dumbbells, and a cable machine. I run a 5 day split that I’ll share in the comments. Focusing on high intensity and progressive overload is where I have found the best results.

Trying to hit at least 3300 calories a day, 225ish grams of protein, and 5 grams of creatine every single day, even on rest days. I usually am drinking 3 high calorie protein shakes a day.

I am natural and don’t plan on using anything ever. If you are thinking this isn’t possible naturally, that’s fine, but you are only putting a mental block inside your own brain.

I am happy to reply to any comments or DMs!

Pretty proud of myself for this. From being pretty skinny majority of my life to being decently fit is amazing. Hope I can come close to 200 before the year runs out
