His upper body seems well balanced and the amount of muscle is attainable without roids. Although it looks like he has strong legs there seems to be little definition. I wonder how he can improve his legs.

Some really unaesthetic transformation sort of pics. Both from the top end of a bulk. I weigh more now than I did in 2017 but I look leaner and more muscular 💪 I can also pose better lol.

You hear this a lot in bodybuilders: "Well, I need chicken. Or I need chicken to be strong, to build muscle tissue." That is utter nonsense. The largest, strongest terrestrial animals on the planet are all herbivores.

Upper body strength before breaking my 15hr fast with peanuts and home made frothy coffee. Added some collagen peptides.
I have to face facts. I cannot use heavy weights for upper body.
Long time story, but I do not want that bulk! I've tried the low weight, high rep principle for at least a couple of years. Nothing serious at all.
Hasn't made a bit of difference.
Went back into "proper" weight training a few weeks ago. Nothing that targets the arms. Focusing on chest and back.
But that's not helping either!
I cannot (and WILL not) ignore my upper body completely. But I need to use my fitness/training/workout knowledge and experience to the test and figure something out.
I mean, look at those arms on the seated cable row, for goodness sake!
Anyway, that was a good workout nonetheless.
It's a dreary, rainy day. No noticeable sunrise. But I still sat by the big window, getting as much natural light as possible.
Blood sugar seems to have settled down (for now at least, lol). And I've slept a little better. Still not good, but not dreadful.
Then this yoga/pilates/barre inspired routine.
Today will be a mixture of taking care of myself in different ways. This type of training is certainly one excellent opportunity to get some self care into my day.

I think this is cool pose. I can do this a little bit but have to work more on my lats. If you look closely, it's not all pecs but really is more the lats that he is flexing first and then with the support of the lats he can push up the pecs and flex the shoulders. Yesterday I ran across a video of a bodybuilder demonstrating how to work the lats better. I tried it during my workout later that day. Wow! For the first time I could feel a pump in my lats. I not only was excited that I could feel this but it also affected my posture in powerful and lasting way. Be sure to search for and practice proper form and exercise techniques.
I learned my new lats techniques from Ryan Humiston on YouTube. He's got great techniques for all muscle groups.

How Weight training works?
Weight training, also known as strength training or resistance training, is a form of exercise that involves using external weights or resistance to stimulate and challenge the muscles. The primary goal of weight training is to increase strength, build muscle mass, improve muscular endurance, and enhance overall physical fitness. Here's how weight training works:
Muscle Contractions: Weight training involves performing exercises that require the muscles to contract against resistance. This resistance can come from free weights (such as dumbbells or barbells), weight machines, resistance bands, or even bodyweight exercises.
Overloading the Muscles: The key principle of weight training is to overload the muscles by placing greater demands on them than they are accustomed to. This is typically achieved by gradually increasing the resistance or weight lifted over time. By challenging the muscles, they adapt and become stronger to handle the increased load.
Muscle Fiber Recruitment: Weight training targets different muscle groups and activates muscle fibers within those groups. There are two main types of muscle fibers: slow-twitch (Type I) and fast-twitch (Type II). Slow-twitch fibers are more fatigue-resistant and are primarily used during endurance activities, while fast-twitch fibers generate more force but fatigue faster. Weight training helps recruit and activate both types of muscle fibers, leading to overall muscle development.
Progressive Overload: To continue making progress, it's important to apply the principle of progressive overload. This means gradually increasing the resistance, sets, repetitions, or intensity of the exercises over time. By continually challenging the muscles, they adapt and grow stronger.
Muscle Adaptation and Hypertrophy: When you perform weight training exercises, you cause micro-tears in the muscle fibers. During the recovery and rest period after the workout, the body repairs these micro-tears and reinforces the muscles, leading to muscle growth and hypertrophy. Adequate rest, nutrition, and recovery are essential for muscle adaptation to occur.
Functional Movements: Weight training exercises can be tailored to target specific muscle groups or focus on functional movements that mimic everyday activities or sports-specific motions. This helps improve overall strength, stability, and coordination, making it easier to perform daily tasks or excel in athletic pursuits.
Hormonal Response: Weight training also triggers hormonal responses in the body. For example, intense weight training can increase the production of anabolic hormones such as testosterone and growth hormone, which are involved in muscle growth and repair.
It's worth noting that weight training should be done with proper form, technique, and progression to minimize the risk of injury. Consulting a certified fitness professional or personal trainer can provide guidance on creating a safe and effective weight training program tailored to individual goals and abilities.
