Good work mate! keep it up!

Where the hell have you been?

It'll like you have been away all winter. Which doesn't make any sense.

The instant you tell anyone you go to the gym and every man and his dog comes out of the wood work and tells you to do this and do that and don't do that regardless of the fact that you've mentioned you're following the advice of a qualified trainer.

 
I'm not sure if this was originally aimed at me (as it was after my post) but it's good that you have found that PT's can be idiots, 'qualified' or not, just as much as 'every man and his dog coming out of the woodwork' can.

If every 'man and his dog' kept his mouth shut, all you would have is people selling stuff, and we all know what they can say..

Many workout enthusiasts will have spent far more time learning about their hobby, than PT's spent training in their profession. Of course an intelligent PT that genuinely cares about their profession and never stops learning is your best bet, but GLHF finding one that isn't in hot demand; or works fulltime with pro athletes.

To be honest you can filter most broscience on the web into two categories:
1. Those who say to do something and don't explain why. e.g. "don't eat whey, eat casein". Which is a dumb, generalised comment (they each have pros and cons)
2. Those who say to do something and explain. e.g. "eat whey PWO and during the day supplement with casein, cos whey is quicker acting and casein slower releasing"

Just use your brain. Oh, and +1 on the smith machine avoidance, the only time I've touched it is when I hit my head on it (it's too close to the cage at my gym)

Spacemonkey, I think the health and fitness section needs a thread where we can post our buffest pose, and see who is GetSome's most Schwarzenegger-like specimen.

I'll win, of course.

Nah, wasn't aimed at you. I was just getting frustrated at the amount of friends who have tried to offer me bioscience. I have whittled it down to 2 people that I trust now. 1 a 3rd year degree student in exercise science who has a few years experience up his sleeve, and another who's a PT at a competing gym who competes in Thai kick-boxing. Both have taken me for sessions and have shown me that they are trustworthy and know their shit more so than my original PT.

I've managed to inspire 2 other friends to sign up to the gym as they saw me as a skinny white boy with not much interest in working out. They figure if I can do it, they can too which gives me a good feeling.

Also, update:

Thanks for the progress pics.

From humble beginnings, you can really see the beard starting to mature now.

Indeed, but the Facial hair needs to be man-scaped now - it is poor form to let the Beard Grow wildly without defining its greatness

It gets trimmed and pruned everyday.

It takes a bit of persuasion but it sits in place after a few solid punches.

Past week has been a bit quiet due to being tired. Pulling overtime at work and noticing my energy levels are depleting pretty quickly.
