Hi, I posted here for some workout advice in July but since then haven't returned... until now! I plan on spending much more time around the board and having a post count much higher than a measly 6 (at the time of this post), so here I am, introducing myself!

Been a gym goer for years, got into BBing big-time about 9 months ago - 23, married and polyamorous, 2 kids, 7 ferrets (no, they don't smell - they've all been neutered/spayed) and a pet skunk (neither does she, they're always de-scented)! Southerner living in the North (Wakefield), moved here 13 months ago and still don't know anyone :cry: .

So, that's me.

Please don't get it confused with polygamy - polyamory works both ways, the philosophy being that we are each other's 'primary', but are capable of loving other people, having relationships (it's also not swinging, which is just about sex) - but we are each other's soul mates and we come before anyone else in regards to each other. Of course, it's usually only with other polyamorists anyway.

Thanks for the welcome lads, here's my stuff:

5'6" - 75KG. Small frame, classic ectomorph. I'm looking to cut up for summer - I'm not going for washboard, just some nice definition which I already have above the belly area, then I'll be focussing on gaining muscle but not 'bulking', but just keeping the stomach definition at the same time as getting some decent muscle, even if it's not as fast as a bulker's.

MONDAY - chest, shoulders and triceps
Flat bench press - 50KG
Incline dumbell bench press - 27.5KG per arm
Barbell military press 25KG
Dumbell shoulder press - 16.25 KG per arm
Close grip bench press - 27.5KG

20 mins on cross-trainer at 145-150 heartrate, 3 minutes cool down then stretching

WEDNESDAY - upper back and biceps
Close grip pull ups
Bent over rows - 22.5KG
Dumbbell bicep curls - 12.5KG per arm - after failure on the last set, I use the next dumbell down, and carry on on that, when I reach failure on that, I move down to the next lower dumbell, and repeat the process until my arms are burning.
Shrugs - 82.5KG
Grip training (bar supporting)

20 mins on cross-trainer at 145-150 heartrate, 3 minutes cool down then stretching

FRIDAY - lower back, abs and legs
Kneeling ab crunch (using a pull-down pulley and rope) - 103.25KG
Squats (arrgh ya bastard, I hate these) 62.5KG
Straight-leg deadlifts - 75KG
Calf raises 77.5KG
Grip training (bar supporting)

20 mins on cross-trainer at 145-150 heartrate, 3 minutes cool down then stretching

And these are my pics, although they are 2 months old, so I'm significantly bigger now, and I've also been to a tanning salon, so I'm not quite as pasty either!
