Hey NG! I dont think it's that strange that you SLDL more than you squat, I do about the same weight for both. I did legs yesterday... ohh it was so painful but sooo good!! I love power week, heavy and low reps, my fav.

Have a great weekend!

Thanks Mono. I'm going to stick with it and see how long it takes to start squatting some respectable numbers. A couple of trainers at my gym have said my form is correct - but I don't trust them all that much.

Hi Paynne - Yeah, I like the sig too. Thanks for visiting.

Sapphire - I like power week too! Thanks for checking on me. Hope you have a great weekend too!

Why not do a five day split?

That is prolly what I will start again when I am done TPPT

Obstacles don't have to stop you. If you run into a wall, don't turn around and give up. Figure out how to climb it, go through it, or work around it.

Thanks Jodi They felt freaking heavy AND damn good. I liked it!

I think this back routine is going to be good for me b/c I have fairly wide lats but not much thickness. Today I'm feeling it all over my back except my lats.

Hi Iain. I am doing a 5 day split but this week I ended up missing Tuesday unexpectedly and I have a crazy busy weekend so I decided to get it done in 4 days.

Every other week will be 5 days - that's my favorite.

Looks like a great workout, Nike!

But when you disarm them, you at once offend them by showing that you distrust them, either for cowardice or for want of loyalty, and either of these opinions breeds hatred against you.

Thanks Var and sara!

I'm actually starting to "feel good in my skin" again. I still have some fat to drop but I'm basically ok with it. I'm fuller than before and overall I like me a little bigger. (not so scrawny ) I'll get there.

I'm gonna need a little more time before posting pictures...but not TOO much. I promise.

What up Gurl ! Missed ya, glad to see ya kick'n ass in those workouts. You go girl! Peace and Love

I present you with the gift of my PAIN as I rain down punch after kick after knee after elbow over and over and over again bring excitment to tha very fiber of my DNA, as my ears records tha sounds of bones snap'n and lungs collapse'n ,organs being SLOWLY turned into a very special jelly to tease my taste buds at tha very thought of tha smell of blood that will change tha color of his eyes from white to that glossy delicious deep intestinal red color. This and more I claim from each victim or new toy as I have come to think of them lately.I feel tha power of tha Voodoo all my Jamaican and Zulu forefathers died to keep secret and pass into me. This is my birthright, my gift if you will. I am tha VooDoo child, tha dream and tha nightmare, Tha villian and tha hero,tha bringer and tha destroyer.I am tha unwalkable road,I am tha unswimable ocean, tha unclimbable mountain, tha storm that there is no shelter to protect you from, I am tha final thought. You ask why am I like this...................... Because violence keeps me calm MUTHAFUCKA !!!!! I am tha muthafuck'n Serial Killa and I can smell your blood from here,Too hard for your Momma, Too hip for your Daddy Fuck Milk, Got TREN !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi Mikhal Thanks for visiting. You made my day.

Hey Mono My shoulders are finally improving. Used to be my shoulders and my legs that sucked. Now it's just my legs.

I think I was hoping for it to be a little higher but I'm not going to stress on it. I'll check it again a few weeks into my new eating plan/diet to see if it's lower (and hope that it won't be)

ok - i'll figure something out. i don't have a digital camera so i get a disposable camera and then have it developed on disc. wish you could buy a disposable with only 12 exposures. they have a lot so i'll waste a bunch - but i'll get some taken this weekend. i promise. (but no legs yet )

hey - don't do that! too much pressure. it's not going to be all that impressive. it's still basically a "before" photo. i'm just less upset about it than before. (if the fat sticks around long enough you apparently get used to it. )

I was just teasin'. No pressure. Feel free to PM them to me for opinions before going public.
