The first 8 or so was just getting back to my normal/maintenance weight though.Before and after pics:[ATTACH=full]409138[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]409139[/ATTACH]I've definitely put on some fat, but according to the Navy calculator (the one that uses waist and neck size) I'm at 16%, not terrible. So I've decided to bulk 3 more months and try to put on another 10lb or so. Then I think I'll get a DEXA scan to get an accurate bodyfat percentage reading. Never had one before.Also have an update about this isometrics routine. I gained 3/8" arm size. Based on how fast they typically grow (not fast), much of that must be due to the isometrics. My curling strength has also shot up. So I'm going to continue with this for 3 more months (even though it's getting tedious, tbh). The tendon gains I can't really measure, so I'm just going to assume that's happening as a bonus.</blockquote>
