davetherave · 14-06-2008, 10:36 PM

page 2 mate theyre not pretty though :(

until i get my nokia luna working i cant post new pics anyway :(

it's been to the shop once, i am at the parents tomorrow for fathers day so i'll get my usb cable for my sony ericcsson (if it's there) and sort some new pics out to see if any progress has been made (trying to completely re-enact the pics from before)

ElfinTan · 15-06-2008, 01:18 PM

I have to say the 'lady' in your avatar is probably getting a healthy meal eating Ronald Mc Donald than she would do eating AT Mc Donalds...Less fat and salt and higher protein content!

davetherave · 15-06-2008, 01:38 PM

hahaha yeah there is a distinct lack of proper meat at the resturants that ronald mcdonald owns

she seems to be doing alright for meat though (sorry

)

cellaratt · 15-06-2008, 01:53 PM

Dave...do you alternate from one week to the next with BB and DB or do you tend to stick with the BB...?

davetherave · 15-06-2008, 01:56 PM

i tend to stick with the barbell to be honest mainly as i train alone at home, i use the dumbells for overhead presses and occasionally static grips but thats about it (hammer curls and db curls hurt my hand for some reason)

i wouldnt mind doing flat bench using dumbells but i couldnt get enough weight up :(

ive read dumbells are better for flat bench and barbells are often better for incline?

cellaratt · 15-06-2008, 02:02 PM

Personnaly I think it's another area of great debate...When you get to a point your ready for a switch, try doing a little more DB work, especially on bench...When I went back to training last I had no spotter and did alot of DB work...within a month I had made noticiable gains and was given the comment from a respected frined in the field that I had developed a Bodybuilder type chest rather the a powerlifter and I can only credit that to DB work...just a thought...I went back to page two and took a look at you pics and I think giving that a little chance may help shape your chest which I think you may be looking for...lifts look good too, your doing great, keep it up bro...

davetherave · 15-06-2008, 02:08 PM

nice one, cheers mate

yeah my chest is one of my major poor areas, a good deal has gone off it already and it is nowhere near solid so i may need to drop to a pigeon chest and then come back stronger then before

i may give them a go again, possibly on incline to see how it goes, although my incline bench is moving a fair bit more then my flat bench
