xphilx Posted November 3, 2008 Share Posted November 3, 2008 those pics are hard to compare but i can see that you made defenitely some progress with your arms. show some other poses like most muscular or front double biceps that make a rating more easier.

Either you're sarcastic or you do not understand how a male human being works. those pics are hard to compare but i can see that you made defenitely some progress with your arms. show some other poses like most muscular or front double biceps that make a rating more easier. +1.

tuc Posted November 4, 2008 Author Share Posted November 4, 2008 Wow, the amount of comments! @ johanx: Beach season 2010 is 19 months away. @ HCPG: Yes I'm serious about xkillerx, he's learning Finnish all the time so that he can move here with Hanna who he met in Vegan Fitness Week! @ sosso: thanks for the compliment and for the info, I'll look it up at VF @ Vegan Joe: thanks! Still have a lot to learn with teh "V" back! :/ @ BodhiDave85: I think I'll gain another 40 pounds of muscle and THEN lose the spare tyre! THEN I will be set. @ HCPG again: That's right! Here's my plan: 1.) Get big, like ridiculously big.2.) Lose fat AFTER becoming ridiculously big.3.) ???????????????4.) PROFIT! @ xphilx: The problem here is that when I started training I didn't know the poses, nor I could do them. I'll try to look up for a pic of front double biceps though. @ xjohanx: More pics coming soon. And I bet HCPG knows how male human being works. I just don't want to lose the fat yet since cutting would pause my muscular development. @ IYM: Thanks mate! Just wait for a year more and I'll be big as a side-by-side refrigerator!

Either you're sarcastic or you do not understand how a male human being works.Or have talked about it with him. Either you misunderstood him (meaning he want to have abs just cares more about bulking ATM) or he lied. 1.) Get big, like ridiculously big.2.)

bodybag Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 tuc, your Big 3 numbers and weight gain in one year is impressive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tuc Posted November 15, 2008 Author Share Posted November 15, 2008 Thanks mates! IYM, it would be even better if I weren't so lazy to measure myself. Well, at least writing them down. Fallen_Horse, I simply don't know. I don't have a training or eating program. I eat everything I see if it's vegan. I'd say about 3000kcal but I really don't have a clue whether it's correct. bodybag, I hoped I could nail 100kg bench press (220lbs) but I couldn't. Still, I'm quite happy with the results. The real work starts now -> my goal is to do proper sets @ 100kg in bench press next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lean and Green Posted November 23, 2008 Share Posted November 23, 2008 TUC, my man, I think the you took over the Incredible Hulk physique all on your own; I need to play catch up! Looking swol and exploding out from those veins running down your biceps. Great work my friend. I have a treat for you on your blog; once I upload it, that is You'll love it. Anyhow, keep at it, .U.D.D.Y.!!!!!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvilJukka Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 You're definitely an awesome example of someone who gets HUGE with hard work and a vegan diet. Inspiring stuff, i hope my back starts looking like that as soon as possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HCPinGviini Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 When meeting in person, you wouldn't belive that he's so huge. Or I don't know, at least not when he's wearing clothes. Only that his arms look massive. I wouldn't even dream about arm wrestling with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tuc Posted December 9, 2008 Author Share Posted December 9, 2008 L&G, I already saw the vid you sent and it's the best vid ever! I love getting greetings via Youtube (well that was my first time)! But hey, let's face it: you lift a lot more than me = you have more muscle. I might catch you some year but it'll take time. I might have more weight but I have a lot more fat. EvilJukka, thanks! It's so great that I can inspire you, you've already made really good progress! If you want your back to look like that, do loads of bent-over rows with heavy weights and train lat spread pose. My back doesn't look like that at all if I'm not flexing! HCPG, the only time you have seen me is the Vegan Fitness Week camp and JP was there. If you saw me next to normal sized guys I'd look really huge! ...no really, I'm not that big yet. December update with VBB&F clothing! http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk250/tuc_finland/VBBF_Clothing.jpg xjohanx was asking how my bulking belly is doing. It's almost gone and 4/6 of my abs are clearly visible. I've still managed to gain a bit more weight, I'm not even full right now and I'm pretty accurately @ 180 lbs.
