ROBERT RAUSCH PHOTOGRAPHY Copywrite 2011
I am more defined now(and darker). Illl post some more pics at the end of February or early March. Im trying to NOT take any pics during the month of February.
Ive been doing a lot more obliques lately and if I flexed the other way youd be able to see all the striations. By doing so its making my waist seem a lot bigger than what it is(in pics and real life). I know I need to work them with weight but I do not like the big waist look(not a fan at all). My size 30's are a bit loose-- to give you an example of my waist size.
