My Pecs so far

[jaxx152003]

Well I am 24, and I think a large for my frame ribcage.

I am only 5'6"

I have always been the stocky/thick/husky person etc.

I think by swimming when I was younger and being in band, it helped since I was breathing in and out so much, I played the clarinet.

I am starting from being a bit overweight, currently around 165 lbs. I would guess around 20% bodyfat.

I have never lifted weights before, and have only been doing them for about two months.

I have seen the most progress in pullups and things like pushups.



I have the Iron Gym Total Upper Body Workout Bar Extreme Edition Amazon.com: Iron Gym Total Upper Body Workout Bar - Extreme Edition:...


I started out not being able to do a single pullup.

But now I can at least do around four or five in a row before I get tired.



I know I am still very weak, and I am ok with that, progress is progress

I have some friends that are really big(i.e. strong/athletic), so I do not feel bad being at the point where I am at in terms of what I can do.

I have that same workout bar, and truthfully last time I tried I could only do about 7 pullups.

Although I'm not going to post a new vid for a couple weeks, just wants to share that I measured my arms at 19 inches today! And I'm between 228-230 lbs now.

Fantastic! I look forward to seeing the extra muscle soon.

I don't know if you do pullovers man and most people consider it a back exercises but finishing up with those nice and slow seem to be helping my upper chest alot and they also widen your rib cage for more pec meat.

Been giving them a try due to a article i read on T-Nation

[sparkymcsparks]

Yeah man, pullovers are awesome for stretching the ribcage. I've been doing those since I was 16.

[GTlifter]

Nice, I just added them and I feel the difference already like what the fuck was I doing not having them in there. LOL

After reading this I couldn't think anything other than "do it! do it! do it! do it! do it!" lol

[annoyingone]

OMG I did pullovers for the first time yesterday and damn I am sore but in a good way!

[sparkymcsparks]

Haven't posted a vid in a while so here's one. I haven't been focusing on pecs the last month or so, just trying to build shoulders, back and legs and get everything in proportion.

looking real good man. definitely looking proportionally big liking that some veins are visible too. keep it up!

[Mad Dog]

Awesome progress and nice beard.

[raven79]

The pecs are always going to be your strong spot sparky! I can't take my eyes off of them.

On the other hand though, I really enjoy seeing your muscles ripple in your shoulders and arms.

You are one sexy man!

I'm looking for the "Like" button.

[bigbbny]

Lookin' great! Keep up the good work man! :-)

[sparkymcsparks]

Hey everyone, its been a while but here to post my progress. Been training back and shoulders alot over the last month. A lot of deadlifts to thicken my back. Measured my pecs at 50 inches the other day! Heres a new flexing vid. What do you think?

[cutlerfan]

You look bigger than the last time..bigger chest, arms, and shoulders! You are one big man and you will be bigger still! Keep up the training! Love the beard too..hot!

[sparkymcsparks]

Thanks man. Glad you can see a noticeable difference!

[Stoneman]

Marry me already.

[1bigwoof]

Looking JACKED, big man! Thanks for the video.

[TopHeavy]

You're looking really strong. Keep up the great work. I've been working hard on my back too (Wednesday is back & biceps day - really tiring but it feels great). Backs strength is so fundamental to general strength, isnt it?

[racecar]

You look amazing! Thanks for sharing the video - sure got me pretty hot and bothered.

[atomicmuscle]

Awesome development --
I jus want to play Babaloo on those big beautiful pecs!

all the best --with your training !

[sparkymcsparks]

Just updating quickly. Tried a sample of a new preworkout sup called C4. It was arm day today, blasting bis tris and forearms, and the gym was closing but I still had tons of energy. Went home and worked out for another half hour, measured my arms.... 19.5 inches! The biggest yet. Can't wait for the big 20!

[TopHeavy]

Wow! 19.5" is great going. Mine are about 19.25" at the moment. Race you to 20"!

[sparkymcsparks]

Here we are at the end of 2012, and this is my progress so far. Been focussing more on back, legs, shoulders, forearms, than pecs because I want everything to be proportionate. Although I think my pecs will always be my best feature. 235lbs, 19a, 50c now.

Freaking amazing!

[vlad]

Awesome video... love how sweaty and hairy you are, first off all...woof! Secondly, your muscles continue to get bigger, rounder, and harder... you look absolutely awesome. And yeah, I got a boner watching this vid, haha. Keep up the good work in 2013!

[raven79]

A perfect set on an extremely hot guy! Keep going sparky!

[irish muscle]

[sparkymcsparks]

Let's get TopHeavy in on it too haha.

[Mdlftr]

Sparky,
Awesome pecs! Big, full development from top of the collarbone down to mid chest, with good size and nice, full shape!

Great work! At 235, how tall are you again? 6'2" ? A 50 inch chest looks great on you!! I particularly LOVE the side view when you see how far your hairy pecs jut out from your torso! You go, Man! Awesome! That's my favorite view of pecs - from the side to show how far out they bulge!

Mdlftr, trying for my version of this.....

[sparkymcsparks]

Thanks everyone. Your comments really motivate me. Here's one from today, with me crossing my arms at the end, pecs really full by then.

[annoyingone]

[sparkymcsparks]

[BigLittleTim]

Great chest, stud. LOVE your focus on pecs. Keep up the good work, muscle man.
BIG TIM

[Mdlftr]
