Many reasons for that. Firstly, it was before I fucked up my shoulder real bad so I was still benching. Also, it was summer and I had lots of "paahhmmp" as I was doing pullups/chins/rope work.
The other pic was done cold, (its actually winter) but also I hadnt exerted myself at all that day. And not benched in the best part of a year.
Oh yeah, lastly. My back is just generally leaner than my belly.
And you we in the middle of a fucking chin up.
You do look very lean in the pullup pic.
Props for getting the scan done/posting the pictures. All of us want to think we're lean and ripped, but sometimes just knowing the numbers is a great way to gague your training. Takes balls too to post that online. Whether you're trying to build strength or lose fat, good luck with everything!

I went to the local DXAtorium earlier today for a reading. I'll post the results tomorrow, but here's some pics i just took if anyone wants to practice.
Gotta say that i'm a bit surprised by how fat i look in the pics... I look better in the mirror! (at least marginally)
6' 254lbs (down from ~260 ~2 weeks ago)

(I actually hadn't meant to cut my head off like that but i don't have a tripod and that's as far back as i could put the camera (precariously balancing on the arm of a chair).)
