The pics below are from my journey. I have posted before on here, but I have not posted any updates in about 4 months. In that time I have tried adding weight (approximately 20 pounds). Honestly, I can't decide which "me" I like better. Thoughts?

The latest ones are below this line and are due to purposeful weight gain in preparation for a powerlifting competition.

Thank you all for your honest input and best of luck with your journey.

    You look great, but I think I liked the hairy chest better, and that's saying something coming from me! I like my boys as smooth as a rubber chicken, lol! But you look awesome.

    Thanks for the quick responses. Wow. I love this site. But what if we put the chest hair debate aside and just focused on the structure. Lol...

    Regardless of chest hair, I think that you look more defined in the older photo, but that could be attributed to photo quality/lighting/etc. That being said - you look excellent in both. You are a very handsome man! Congrats on how far you've come (:

    I have spent the last few months putting on size. Now it is time to shred.... which means a stricter diet... yuck.

    I like the newest pictures (with the weight added on) better. Yes, you looked more muscular and defined in the earlier pictures but this was not attractive to me. That said...I have to confess that when I want to cuddle with a man, I don't want to be laying on a rock hard muscle...I want muscle but not rock hard. Happy medium, you know? I think you look healthier and more "normal" now. Which I hope you don't see as backhanded compliment in anyway because it is not meant as such. Also, I find all the pictures of you after the initial one, are handsome good looking men. So, no matter what...you are a good looking, handsome man. :)
