Hi all, just got my first tattoo and wanted a few other opinions. I think it looks great but i'd like to see what other people think. I got it done at sin city tattoo at capalaba, cost me $200 and took about 45 mins

Gauging how good a tattoo looks should always be done after it's near-permanently etched into your flesh.

Looks good but.

Nice tat man, all you need now is a bottle of jimy beam to kill the pain. :)

Give it a week or so then take some more shots.

yeah i'll be taking some more pics once its healed properly. Oz the pain wasnt unbearable but was a little more harsh than i though :P i'd describe it like someone scratching your skin with a screw driver, though the filling in wasnt that bad was more like a numbing vibrating feeling.

not bad

You could always get the same as existence

cost $500 and took 2 hours :)

my jaw dropped when i first saw it.

Holy f***, it's DC@!#!@

On topic, I'm going to get a tat exactly where you got yours, however it's going to be of the Against Me! Horse in solid black.

im going to get one of, wait for it..

a big beautiful penis

ow that's look good :)

not my tat, its my gf's

fair enough.
At least its not an arm band. Sick of seeing pasty white guys with hardcore-bands after watching xXx or Blade trilogy. They always make certain the sharp bits from the bottom of the tat are visible and poke out of their sleeves signifying their inability to accomodate their super hardcoreness in mere man-clothes.

thier garments consist of XXS pastel colour polo shirt's, with its collar most definentally up. sporting their new ultra gay f***ed up hair cut, emo studded belt, super tight spermicidal fag jeans and sweat bands on thier arms so they look like they break dance too and have street cred'. fags.

- you all know it.

i like your t-shirt tan squarks :P

As long as you put it on your face. That way nobody would notice anything different about you.

you leave my lack of sun exposed torso outta this or i'll be forced to own you at ping pong again

groydis: that 'together we are weight' tatt: isn't that someone's from SA? some bs story about friends sticking together and a spanish nurse fetish?


also squarkyD which gym do you go to

clearly none.

LOL^

reason being i saw a dude with a tattoo like that at my gym the other day, unless it's some generic tattoo it could've been the same guy... he was scrawny too and i intimidated him the hell outta there

No offence to Squark, but I don't think his tattoo of a cross is a one-of-a-kind.

its not one of a kind by far it's a design i bought off the net, plus yeah i dont goto a gym since about 3 years ago cause i'm lazy these days.

if thats scrawny, then i want to be scrawny, that way i could put on 10kg

Don't be a poofter. Don't get a tattoo.

I mean, hes a poofter for thinking of getting one, derrr :P

Do you mean he would be a poofter if he got one? Or that he is a poofter until he gets one?

ROFLMAO!

Gay tats groydis

Trin has a cool tat.. Would be better if it went up to your neck, like george cloonies in From Dusk Till Dawn.. that movie rocks.

i would quote qproperly but who cares

"you're a girly man!"

no, im just a skinny man seeing as i can beat up most people bigger than me

ok, maybe not most, but at least some

i'd like to see that girly man

before ya go trolling anymore dale remember you were once a weedy bastard too :p

i was mid chemo! and i still looked awesome, see avatar

*instert willing statement here*

although not so willing because law may be involved

also, what did you do to de-scrawnify yourself other than go to a gym

last edited by Spock at 16:47:09 09/May/06

roids.

lol nah, i just ate, P.S i'm not that big now.. but i've gone from 54kgs when on chemo to 72.5ish now, protein, whether it be in the form of shakes or good food, and consistent weight training, you may be a hard gainer but that just means you need to work a little harder.

thanks Marty, i'm too strapped for cash to get anymore done at the moment :(

ok, ill skip that first word and say thanks, looks like foood food foood can help, seeing as im pretty sure i work hard enough already

if you're not training on a 6 day cycle you're probably not working hard enough

increase your protein intake and change your workout to this

Training Cycle for Beginners
Day 1: Chest & Triceps
Day 2: Back & Biceps
Day 3: Legs
Day 4: Shoulders, Traps, Abs & Calves
Day 5: Off
Day 6: Repeat cycle


Notes: For each body part, shoot for 9 total sets, 8 to 10 reps per set. Performing fewer than 6 reps builds mostly strength, and performing more than 12 prevents you from using heavier weights. So the safe range is 8 to 10.

For the first exercise of each workout, do 2 additional warm-up sets of 12 to 15 reps using a lighter weight. That helps get the body ready to work out while helping to prevent injuries.

Day 1

Working Sets
(sets x reps)
Barbell Bench Press 3 x 8-10
Incline Barbell Bench Press* 3 x 8-10
Flat Bench Dumbbell Flyes 3 x 8-10
Close-Grip Bench Presses 3 x 8-10
Lying Cambered Bar Extensions 3 x 8-10
Straight Bar Cable Pushdowns 3 x 8-10

* Every other workout, alternate Incline Barbell Bench Presses with Incline Dumbbell Presses.


Day 2*
Working Sets
(sets x reps)
Pulldowns or Wide-Grip Pull-Ups 3 x 8-10
Low Cable Rows
3 x 8-10
Dumbbell Rows or Bent-Over Barbell Rows
3 x 8-10
Standing Barbell Curls 3 x 8-10
Alternating Dumbbell Curls** 3 x 8-10

* Since Low Cable Rows, Dubbell Rows and Bent-Over Barbell Rows work a lot of the biceps, you don't need a lot of additional biceps work. In fact, doing too many sets for biceps after a good back workout could case your biceps to become overworked, which will prevent them from growing.

** Dumbbell Curls can be done either standing or seated. Alternate from week to week between the two.


Day 3
Working Sets
(sets x reps)
Leg Extensions 3 x 8-10
Squats 4 x 8-10
Stiff-Legged Dead Lifts or Lying Leg Curls 3 x 8-10


Day 4
Working Sets
(sets x reps)
Seated Dumbbell Overhead Presses or Barbell Military Presses 3 x 8-10
Seated Dumbbell Lateral Raises 3 x 8-10
Bent-Over Rear Lateral Raises or Reverse Pec-Deck Lateral Raises 3 x 8-10
Barbell Shrugs 3 x 8-10
Seated Calf Raises 3 x 8-12
Standing Calf Raises 3 x 8-12
Ab crunches on a bench 3 x 12-15
Hanging Leg Raises (knees bent) 3 x 12-15

does anyone here target their forearms when doing resistance training?

I have cainer forearms thanks to batting

(in cricket, you dirty c***s)

Your bat must be heavy to get that sort of workout facing only one ball.

I like to play

Fella i've been "dating" for a month or so asked me the other night if i wanted to see his tat. "sure, why not" i said. He showed me and it said "natalie" on it. I'm like... who is natalie? thinking the poor dude has got the name of an ex tattoed on his chest. MY DAUGHER he confesses rather sheepishly.

Now that certainly is one rather lame way to break it to a girl that you've got a daughter if you ask me. you'd think he would have mentioned something earlier. I wouldn;t have cared if he of said something straight up but keepin quite about something that big is a bit naughty.

That's my tattoo story seeing as i have none myself. wouldn;t mind getting one though. ooh lah lah. :)

It's like the same as saying, wanna see my dick, and pulling out a vag right?

People make me sick!

I like to play

BUT WILL YOU LIKE TO PLAY WHEN YOU ARE 90 THAT IS THE QUESTION ARE YOU READY FOR THE MOCKING BY THE OTHER GENTS IN THE NURSING HOME YOU HAVE PUT NO THOUGHT INTO THIS WHATSOEVER

I have put lots of thought in thankyou.

I justify it by not giving a f*** what anyone else thinks ;)

Flesh and bone is not forever but memories are.

I regret nothing and never will.

i wouldnt f*** with steveo he will kick box your ass,

the only person ive ever met thats regretted a tatto was a dumb but very f***ign hot chick who got some random pick out tat that she can barely remember getting.

Kick Box indeed lol,

The only person who should be able to judge there body art is themself.

I for one like steve's tat, and dont worry about hitting 90 and regretting it, who knows your dad will probably dig your grave tomrorow.

Flesh and bone is not forever but memories are.

Are you saying memories are forever?

i'm nto sure it was obvious enough i was joking, the tatt actually looks good

also i dunno about the only person who can judge my tats is me statement because i saw a guy with the toyta logo tatted on him and i judged him for a complete moron and his tat for being utter s*** and i think it was justified.

thread starter tattoo makes me think of Voltron when i see it

also Maverick - holy crap 9 sets per muscle group?

thats insane. i do 3 x 15 for biceps, and im rooted after that (12kg, which is enough after 3 sets!). how do you manage 9?

Obviously anyone can judge anyones anything, but the only thing that matters is the owners judgment.

nikolas - 9 sets per muscle group is perfect and hes on the money. That said i think your calves and abs are optional for 9 sets as they can be worked more frequently that other muscles.

Tattoos are wanky and I will never understand why ppl get them.

pfft! tattoos can be ok, its silly random piercings that are dumb

Kick Box indeed lol,

If that was the case, wouldnt that make this thread and the OP's question redundant?

Thats because you are a dumb bitch. Now get back in the kitchen.

Whoa greazy, those are pretty powerful words there!



















PS Tattoos still look wanky imo.
