This will be the starting point for my new physique phase. I’m using these photos as my baseline so I can compare my progress objectively over the coming weeks and months.
Current condition: I’m carrying a solid amount of muscle, particularly through the shoulders, arms, chest and core. My abdominal definition is already quite pronounced, with visible separation across the abs and obliques. My waist is relatively tight, although I’m currently holding noticeably more softness/water around the lower abdomen compared with my leanest condition. Overall, I’d describe my current physique as muscular and fairly lean, but with room to improve conditioning and definition.
My main priorities going forward are to preserve as much muscle as possible while improving overall conditioning, keeping the waist tight, and gradually improving muscularity and proportions. I’ll pay particular attention to the shoulders, chest, back and overall V-taper, while continuing to bring up any weaker areas.
These photos are intentionally being taken as the baseline rather than trying to look my absolute best. Future updates will ideally use similar lighting, poses and conditions so that changes in body composition and muscular development are easier to judge.
I’ll use this log to record progress, training, body weight, measurements, bloodwork when relevant, how I’m feeling, and any significant changes throughout the phase.
Compound I’ll mainly use : Retatrutide and test ( could add something else ), either way I’ll keep you updated on this log.
Baseline established: August 16, 2026.
Let’s see where this goes.
