A couple of years ago I decided that I needed to start looking after myself better. I have always been on the thinner side, but as I get older, the dreaded middle age spread started to set in. And nobody needs a dad bod. So I resolved myself to getting back my younger physique.

I’m happy to say that within 6 months, I had reached my goal. But then I resolved to start picking up weights. Build some muscle. Give myself the physique I should have had years ago. I started by doing the 5 x 5 starting routine from stronglifts. I kept myself motivated and moved through the program.

My strength went through the roof. But I never got any bigger. So I decided that I needed to move on to a proper push / pull / legs routine. So I did. Again, my strength went up without me adding any real noticeable size to my frame. Which got me wondering what on earth I was doing wrong. So I got to work doing in-depth research into how to get ripped.
