    Well as the title gives away, in this topic I'll post pictures of my progression.

    I will also mention date and pose.
    And some of these I'll also put in my picture file on my profile.

    My (small) history:
    Well I'm Ruben, I used to do martial arts for a total of 9 years. (kickboxing, thaiboxing, taekwondo)
    Also about 2-3 years of squashing and running.

    2 Years ago I did purely purely cardio and sometimes I was hanging around the weights, fooling around. Cheesy
    After about half a year, I nearly stopped doing cardio in the gym completely and started focussing on the weights. Smiley

    Main reason I posted 2 pictures of latspread is because the light on the oldest one isn't that great.

    How long have you been doing weights then? Because the kickboxing, thaiboxing and running would have kept you fit and strong and at a low enough body fat so you were probably already at a good level before you started weights  Wink

    Using correct technique and good form when doing any type of exercise is of paramount importance. Using correct technique a martial artist can break bricks with his bare hands and not cause injury. Using bad technique the bricks would break his/her hands.
    Same principle with any other exercise.

    Well I started thouching them about 2 years ago, but I was really messing around. About a year and a half ago I collected enough knowledge to my standards to start gaining some real muscle and strength. Smiley

    @ ADAM those are damn hairy, it's horrible to watch imo. Cheesy
