Time to drain the oil from my arms and replace it with actual muscle 💪

I'm still running on maintenance-level calories. I'm so curious to see what happens... progressive overload is continuing to increase, so I'm getting stronger. I'm just wondering if muscle mass will actually increase without any surplus of calories 🤔

Hey chris—I’m kind of curious about the amount of weight you use for the exercises you listed. I know I’m just starting out, but I’m wondering what it takes to get to where you and others are to look the way you do, especially since I can barely make 3 sets of ten bicep curls at 35 lbs. on a Cybex machine (or using a 10 lb. free-weight). If you’d rather not say, that’s fine (a witty retort works, too 😉). Thanks!

Wow! You sure have come a long way in a year! Thank you so much for the info and advice. I don’t know if I could ever do as much weight as you, but I definitely appreciate the recommendations. And I didn’t even realize that individual muscles can be worked on in different ways. I’ll be at our rec-plex tomorrow doing what I can, provided my back continues to cooperate. Thanks again for the info and motivation. 👍🏻😊
