My new aims!

Hey all,

I've been gyming it for 18 months now (since Jan 2007) but had a setback in June 2007 when I decided it would be a good idea to break my ankle off at work so that set me back a few months of proper level trianing!

Well anyway I am standing at 6'2" tall and around 88-90kg on an average day. I know that weight is not the best thing to go by especially with my aims.

I currently have some puppy fat that's hiding the work I'm doing, admittedly I've only been paying reall attention to workout technique and methods since Jan! I'm aiming to trim out so my working will show and then bulking on the upper body.

My full aim is to have bigger arms, chest and visible abs.

I'm keeping a journal of my works in the journal bit.

I'm really looking on advice for good actions, exercises or techniques to achieve my aims:

Bigger arms (my arms don't seem to be increasing enough for my liking)
Firmer chest (although I am fairly happy, of all my three aim areas this is my preferred)
Abs (been trying for definitio of a "pack" for years but neve there!

I'm trying the 4x6 routine posted by another member on my Journal but want to know what other eople have done to get increases.

I'm improving my eating and currently on about 50% Protein for whole day food consumption! I'd like to increase this but have to factor in the restrictions of work where I can work an 18 hour day (with 9 of those unplanned).

I would post images but sadly I'm image conscious and fear the repurcussions of posting so have never built up the cahones to publish a pic, hopefully if I achieve or show change then maybe I'll dare to one day!

My wife is always saying she's happy how I am, (which she is) but that doesn;t help, I want to achieve a physique I'm happy with so need advice, help and support from other avenues :)

Cheers for reading!

Generally my gym sessions are in the morning, usually between 07:30-10:00 and last 55-65 minutes.

My sessions are undergoing a change (as mentioned above).
 
Cheers for that, I think I'd prefer mass on arms and chest than a six pack, a six pack is something I've always aspired to but it doesn't necessarily reflect the image I want (if that makes any sense at all - I'd rather have power and strength). In time I could get the six pack but hey it's been years of trying already and no luck :)

I've just moved onto the Waterbury 4x6 method as my workout and see where that gets me and I'll keep a track on my progress more seriously than I have before!

Hopefully we'll see something and I'll dare to show it one day :lol:
