Yeah I know I'd have problems with the dragon flags, I'm a little excited to get back into the gym now haha. Thanks for teh infos Tiger.
Yeah, I'm gonna see if my work will pay for a gym membership.
Wow Tiger great job. Amazing results. Makes me think I can actually bulk up a bit with the work out I've started to do these last few weeks.

My goal I guess is to not be a stick but at least have some toned muscles. Not as buff as you, but a bit less then that.
As far as working out goes my routine is kinda lame but

That's good. Keep the pull ups up, definitely. The push ups are great as well. What you can do is try to go slower up and slower down to help.
As far as the crunches go, how long have you been doing these? I can't even do proper form crunches for 3 mins straight. If you've been doing them for a while, awesome. If you're just beginning, I'd really double check my form.

I've done a mixture of situps/crunches. I guess I just have a lot of endurance or something in everything but my upper body.
I'm pretty dissalointed in my upper hody strength and hope to improve that the most. I already have the outlining or whatever of my 6 pack, and my legs are pretty strong from biking/walking a few miles almost every day.

I'd have to work up to your current program, but I think I could get to it!
you would really want to do a split as opposed to full body

I only do full body because I just plain don't feel like making that many trips to the gym. 8 mile bike ride each way.

it would probably help a lot if my cardio wasn't optional :(

Well, I still jog/run, despite the biking. I've been biking as my main source of transportation for 11 years now. Between 12 years old and now, I've probably covered at least 50% of the miles I've been driven on my bicycle.
That being said, it doesn't rly get my heart rate up at all. Between squats and dead lifts, my legs get tired on the bike long before I get winded or a decent heart rate, which is why I go running 2-3 times a week.

If you cycle with a higher cadence (pedal a lower gear faster) it will save your legs from tiring as quickly by placing less stress on the muscles and more on your heart & lungs, hence you can get more of a cardio workout without being limited by muscle fatigue. It also helps to prevent you from burning out your leg muscles, I doubt this is that much of an issue for you with the distance you cycle but it's not a good idea to be pushing a big gear with tired muscles from weight training.
Probably true, but I can't maintain the same speeds in lower gear lol. It's transportation first, workout second
Here's a recent picture of me and Kunisama (or Kunimitsu if you knew him on Gilgamesh) <3 ^^

It's too bad we can't work out under 400 gravity LOL

Hmm, I wasn't doing them exactly like the guy in this video, but trying this way is killing my neck.

blonde and blue
i am reassured
Holy ***, that's a big pic. I expected photobucket to shrink it SOME.
Just looking at the top of your head, I thought you were a Chia pet or something like that.

Lol photobucket doesnt shrink it unless you hit one of the resize buttons :P
Is it just me or does the pic un-spoiler big, and then shrink when clicked? (Instead of the other way around)
