hah... wow... that's one hell of a before shot.
impressed as always.

MGB · Mon, August 29th, 2005, 04:14 AM

Yeah, John.
You look pitiful.
I can't believe you had the guts to post that picture.
You might want to bust out a snowmobile suit so you don't get embarassed if someone sees you shirtless.

Kidding, OF COURSE!

Look awesome!

I don't you know about you, but I don't enjoy working my back or shoulders, yet. Mostly its because of (1) pain in and (2) fear of seperating again my shoulders.

I hope you'll post your back workout when (not if) you get to where you want to go.

Thanks guys. When I said that I wasn't real happy with the picture I just meant that my back is obviously lagging quite a bit behind my arms. In particular I want to add a lot of width to my upper back and increase the spread of my lats!

That almost made me snort milk over the screen!

And that would've been a shame because it isn't my computer...

Great before picture! I'm not gonna mention any muscle names this time though.

Once again, in my continuing effort to avoid posting photos of myself for public scrutiny, I bring you another in what appears to be turning into a running series.

Here is "John Stone Two-Year Progress Photo Comparisons: THE BACK."

One day, I hope to look like Skip, so I can photoshop images of myself with impunity.

Of course, I won't be black. Or bald. Or as ridiculously good-looking.

Man, that's just sad, and it really drives home my point: lots of work to be done!

I wonder if John waxes his forearms ??? there is less hair on the recent pic.

I just showed that backpicture of John to a friend of mine and she was all like:'Oh, my god, I just want to jump on him and eat him alive, yummie!' By the way, she's just turned 19. Looks like he still got it...

I'm semi-hijacking John's thread here, but I can't help myself. Perhaps I need to start a "comparisons" thread.

I digress. For your amusement and observations, I present a comparison of rear double bicep poses from John Stone and the enviable Skippy "You Can Never Have Enough Skippy In Any Thread" Podar:

Forgive the smaller size - the photo I sto ... er, borrowed from Skip's site was smaller than John's, but I wanted them to be the same for easier comparison.

I'll make the first observation: because of the differing lighting in the two photos, it sure appears John's got the better tan.

And I can't help but note the pun in my naming of that image -- "skip-stone-back-comparo.jpg." Get it? Skip? Stone? Skip a stone?

Oh, forget it.

By the way - Happy Belated Birthday, Mr. Podar!

You absolute bastard.

Skip is definitely a major inspiration for me. His body, to my eyes, is an example of a nearly perfect physique.

And his mind...

Well, that's a whole different story.

but seriously - look how close it is?
sure, skip has a much more developed back, but man... you've come a LONNNGGGG way in the past 3 years john.

Coachese · Mon, August 29th, 2005, 06:44 PM

Ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwww! Those bulging muscles on either side of Skip's spine look like something from the first Alien. It looks like he's smuggling meatloaf or beef wellington or something...I can't quite figure out exactly WHAT they look like.

Disturbing!

Brown-noser

LOL...maybe if you ask him now, John can go to Homecoming with you when the new semester starts!!

I kid, I kid.
