Weigh In: 220.6 lbs
I’m certainly more defined, but I have lost considerable size. Frustrating! I’ve also reached my mental capacity for body anxiety, and can no longer continue “cutting” because of how small I feel. THEREFORE, I am officially beginning bulking. Starting today.
Alexies’ routine is out, I’m going back to my old bodybuilding routine…but I’m changing the order of muscle groups to how Alexies does it. Seems to make much more sense. Triceps and Chest on the same day? Of course! Duh!
Diet is going back to my good ‘ol bulking regimen of excess calories and protein. Will post diet logs shortly and a new routine hopefully.
Latest Infusion on Flickr.

Sorry for all the infusion spam, you guys. It’s kind of addicting.
This time it’s Basil, roasted garlic, olives, ground pepper, and toasted pine nuts in vodka.
Two of them are done!
Left is Blackberry infused vodka.
Right is Thai Chili Peppers infused vodka.
The Chili Pepper infused vodka is so strong, that the smell from the jar burned my eyes. OfGreatImportance/Brian drank some, and his breath is burning my face. He’s on the other side of the room.
The Blackberry is also very delicious, but not nearly as intense. It’s extremely aromatic…like the most delicious-smelling blackberry jam, only it gets you drunk.

It’s not ‘THE POSE’ but it’ll do…it’ll do.
I made it into bearsimdisappointedin! Does this make me a bear?
The Rump Eclipse
Pose yourself perpendicularly to the camera and shift all your weight onto the leg closest to the camera. This accentuates the curve of your thighs and ass. For best results, make sure you’re lit with 3/4’s light to highlight the ridge of your other cheek. Combine with crossed arms or the classic-Dylan-pose to make your upper body look bigger.
Difficulty: Very
The Evita
Also known as the “Don’t Cry for me Argentina,” The Evita is a fanciful pose that makes you look like you’re having an awesome time…but it’s actually a strategic illusion! By raising your arms out and widing your stance (like you’re making the letter “X” out of your body) you make your waist look proportionately smaller. This is great for those fat days.
Difficulty: 8/10
Forced Perspective Pose
By angling your elbow towards the camera, it makes your arm look larger through forced perspective. This works great when posing with friends.
