This picture was taken after I'd been out of the gym with a shoulder injury for six months. In that time, I enjoyed a rich diet and sedentary lifestyle (in case the bottle of bubbly in my hand didn't tip you off).

This is a bulking period. I'm putting on weight, with the anticipation of trimming down later. By September I hope to squat 300 lbs 5x5. I hope to gain at least twelve pounds by then. Assuming these goals are met, I'll be roughly 218lbs and 13.5% body fat.
