I dont really care where you post but don't say you've had no time.I don't know how many posts exactly but posts only do not account for he time spent on there.
Next time don't tell porkies in saying you've had no time. Clearly you had the time.
Thanks CCM, it looks like it'll be interesting to say the least - a new year and new challenges! It'll be good to get into my own routine though and to have my diet and training fixed in.
Yeah it is man - 3kgs a year is what they seem to say. Hopefully that is factored into this contest, but at the end of the day, it is only a contest and it is the personal sense of achievement and accomplishment that I train for - not online validation.
Wow, I'm going to stop dissing on my own progress then. If 3kg per year is about right for guys, then a runt like me should be pretty stoked with half that. You've just given me a new perspective
Good luck with it all ... exciting to say the least!!

I've posted a bit prematurely, but I'm not sure when / if I'll get a chance to take any photos after xmas (I only got a chance to take these because I am back in perth for xmas).
It also means that I could take them in identical light / conditions etc.
As a self assessment, I'd say my legs have developed considerably. My back has thickened (more obvious in a flexed shot) and I have generally filled out, while more or less maintaining my bodyfat.
So, I think I have gained at least 3kgs LBM this year which is a good result for me. Realistically, I probably did this in the first 6 months of the year - not sure if I made much progress in the last 6 months. But I am still reasonably happy. Hoping for bigger and better next year.
This year has been a big year for me, so it is great that I have made any improvements. I'm hoping next year, once I am settled in, that I'll be able to gain a solid 5kgs LBM. That would take me to very close to 100kgs at a reasonable body fat level. That should prime me very well to getting to a very lean 95kgs. But we'll see how that goes.
If I get a chance, I'll try to put up some flexed pics as well in the near future. Just flat out at the moment during my short trip home to perth.
In any case, the relaxed pics reasonably show my transformation. What they don't show so much is the change in fullness / shape of the muscles and changes in vascularity.
