‘The Wolverine Program’ Report: Seeking Progress, Not Perfection

Two weeks ago I finished Alexander JA Cortes’ ‘Wolverine Program’. Here was me before: And a comparison shot immediately after finishing: And a better angle two weeks later: Whilst it’s not been some crazy transformation like we regularly see online, I’ve gained a lot of muscle and definition. I’m naturally skinny and I don’t look like some sculpted Greek God now, but you can see clear and obvious improvements in my shoulders and arms in…
