When you notice your own growth ...

I know this thread used to exist but I couldn't find it...

So I have been going to a CrossFit gym for the last year. Made tons of gains in strength and size. Gotten lots of compliments and love my gains.

But it didn't hit me until the other day when I worked out in regular gym the other day.

You see, CrossFit gyms don't have mirrors so I haven't seen myself working out since I got big.

So I was at this new gym, mirrors everywhere, and man o man I loved how big I looked.

It really hit me towards the end of my workout when I was doing ab work with the medicine ball. I was doing windmills in front of me with the ball and my cotton t-shirt was plasted to my chest ... and, fuck, it just bunched up hard and high. I totally chubbed.

I am still on a high 48 hours later. Want more. More muscle. More growth.

there is no greating feeling, than growing bigger. Enjoy every second of it.

I tend to slow down some sets, just to watch the muscles flex and relax. I swear at rest I could feel myself growing. Guess that's the advantage of wearing spandex, and Long rest periods between sets.

CorssFit. . . that's something. I might try that next year, right now I don't feel that I can put up with the hardcore training they would put me under. It would feel hardcore to me, but it seems that would be the shock my muscles would need to go massive.

anyways congrats on your gains. Keep growing.

Awesome story. I did CrossFit last year too. I found the cardio work a little too intense for regular workouts.

I always felt good in the class though. Every other dude definitely trained for strength over size. I couldn't compete with the amount that they were lifting - especially with the Olympic movements - but I was far and away the most muscular guy in the group. Was a great ego boost!

I don't wear a suit too often, but had to a while back for the first time after a year of putting on quite a lot of muscle. It fit in that I could get it on, and it was wearable, but oh BOY it was tight.
I knew I'd put on size, but this visual was something else.

Put on a shirt yesterday I haven't worn since Thanksgiving. It's an XL but it's made to be worn snug...it always was, but now it was excrutiatingly tight on me. I'm not a fan of tight clothes so I elected not to wear it while going out...didn't want to seem like I was showing off too much.

I guess the century sets I've been doing for the past month or so have been working...

I hadn't measured my biceps in a while and the last time I had they were just north of 19". Just for the hell of it I broke out the measuring tape yesterday before getting ready for work and measured them, I'm now north of 20" in the biceps and 15" in the forearms!

Lol, should have seen me trying to drink from the aluminum water bottle I usually have with me after finishing my arm workout that night. I usually hold it just below where it necks down near the top and when I went to take a drink, I could barely get it to my mouth From now on I'm going to have to start holding the thing lower to drink from on arm nights

I've been adding muscle and dropping fat for several months. The other day, as I was washing my hands, I saw these huge arms in the mirror and realized they were mine. I spent the next several minutes flexing, removing shirt, flexing some more etc... I've never thought of myself as big before. I was the one who was always picked on in middle school. If only they could see me now....
