Over the years, my exercises specific to bodybuilding have included bench press, bench press on an incline bench, push-ups, military press, barbell shrugs, french curls, pull-ups, pull-overs, pull-downs, triceps push-ups, dips, curls, preacher curls, bent over rows, wrist curls, hand...

Thanks - its never great putting your starting pictures up for the world to see! Definitely seeing changes though which is great. How's your training going?
Thanks for the ad, and good luck with your goals, looks like you've done some interesting work (runs, swimming, bouncer...) Hope to hear from you soon.
