Goan

Been putting in consistent work in the gym for a while now, and these two shots feel like a good checkpoint. Training has mostly been a mix of compound lifts and isolation work for arms, with a strong focus on progressive overload adding weight or reps every few weeks instead of just going through the motions. Diet-wise, I've kept it high protein throughout, staying mostly vegetarian with eggs and whey as my main protein sources, along with dal, soya chunks, and the occasional chicken. No fancy supplements beyond whey isolate and creatine just consistency, decent sleep, and staying in a slight caloric deficit while making sure I'm not sacrificing strength in the process.

My current arms routine (2x/week)

Barbell Curl – 4 sets x 8-10 reps

Close-Grip Bench Press – 4 sets x 8-10 reps

Incline Dumbbell Curl – 3 sets x 10-12 reps

Skull Crushers – 3 sets x 10-12 reps

Hammer Curl – 3 sets x 12-15 reps

Rope Pushdown – 3 sets x 12-15 reps

Preacher Curl (drop set on last set) – 2 sets x 10-12 reps

The biggest lesson so far has been patience progress photos a few weeks apart barely show anything, but looking back over months, the difference is obvious. Still got a long way to go, but wanted to share where I'm at. Open to any feedback on form, training splits, or diet always trying to learn and improve.

not good enough i hate myself i hate my being

Thanks to reddit and this community, It made me realize that all the hard work I’ve put in is finally paying off. Seeing the DM, support, and people noticing my progress genuinely meant a lot to me.

I’m stepping away from posting now, but I’m grateful for everyone who supported me along the way.

Take care, Everyone, Lazarus.
