Just teasin, much respect for those of you who stick with it. I just hope I'm still at it when I hit your age....just look a little better while doing it

You will man. You're not making the mistake that I did by lifting for 22 years without knowing what I was doing

Fabric? What kind of fabric?

We've got this woodsy crap all around the new house and I was going to just leave it natural. But it looks kinda crappy so we might do some kinda fence to cover it and keep it from overtaking the yard.

You did 135ft by yourself? That must have been difficult to manage everything with only 2 hands.

Had an old "friend" visit me this morning while working out. The vein in my upper left pec is back . When the ones in my lower abs come back I'll know I am back to the BF% I was at before I did my bulking session.

Yup is this week 9 !!!!! So this weekend will be a big weigh / measure / evaulate weekend. We'll see how bad this past week effected my progress .

How's the elbow ?

Rocco32 · 09-27-2004, 02:19 PM

Elbows doing pretty good! I think you should stay with the program, you've made some great gains on it. How are you leaning?

O c'mon shock week isn't that bad, I think I like shock back the best....super fast workout and I get so pumped!

Gees my veins are going the opposite..they are fading with this bulk, I still have some in my shoulders and some in my arms. And my favorite are the ones in my neck and forehead when I do some massive shrugs they just bulge out and make me look like I should be dead lol.

Rocco32 · 09-27-2004, 04:44 PM

Shock in a busy gym is just hell though! Alot of running around and trying to keep people off your equipment, LOL!

I'm sure I will do another 9 weeks. If I'm not mistaken I think I read in the sticky that at least 3 cycles are recommended .

Rocco32 · 09-27-2004, 06:30 PM

Maybe you should try Phase II, that's what I'm doing now.

Shock week is good . Yeah I lost alot of my vascularity when i bulked. My wife didn't mind though. The veins in my arms were starting to freak here out at the end of my last cut.

Hey don't worry about that diet man a week is nothing...besides you busted your a$$ all week you deserve a little break! Now just get back into the swing of things and you'll be AOK! I'm right there with cajunFit, you inspire myself and many others...you may not think it but you do. I look up to many of the people here on these boards for the things that they can do...no matter how knowledgable I am I still look up to and admire a new comers dedication and will power...same goes for all you old timers as well

cajunFit:You should do it...compete. It never hurt to set an awsome goal like that...I know you could do it! You make sure you tell your daughter congrats from me..thats awsome she is getting into it. You mentioned you hope she keeps at the lifestyle and how hard it is to stick with it these days. I am first hand knmowledge that it is hard. I started getting into nutrition at about 13 or 14, i was about 242lbs at about 5'2". Luckily I have grown about 4 inches or so. When I started I droped down to 151lbs and still had room to lose. Once I got hooked that was it...my life was health and just as long as you keep it fun for her and she keeps see'ing results she will be the same way. Start em young and educate them and there is no reason they wont stay to it. With someone like you helping her and pushing her every step of the way it will be much easier for her. I did it on my own and I know if I had someone there to share the experince with it would have been alot better. Don't do it for her; let her make her own gains but stick with her for moral support and those oh so dreadful days of losing hope and giving up...just keep her hopes high!

Awesome post Deadbolt! Your story is amazing & inspiring also. Sometimes I wonder if its the puberty thing making her gain all this weight and also all the steriods she takes for her asthma, allergies and eczema. I try alot of herbal stuff now.

Your right Deadbolt, I want her to do it because she wants to, not because I'm pushing her.

Gary, Yes I competed one time in figure, that was more about me just being able to get on stage ( I have some self esteem issues). That was my 1st goal....to get on stage LOL.....and with a little wine I was able to accomplish that

I bet you are right Tanya. I didn't realize she was taking steroids.

You have self esteem problems or HAD self esteem problems ? I know it's easy for others to say but it would be hard to imagime someone who looks as good as you do would have self esteem problems .
But I'm sure there is more to it than that.

So how would you rate your degree of overcomimg the self esteem problem?

It's not published yet but I've been piecing it together from Ris's journal. I like it.

Well I think I'll watch you and see what it looks like.

cajunFit · 09-27-2004, 06:50 PM

Gary its been a slow going process for me. Even after I got married my hubby would fuss at me because of it. He would say "Why are you always down on yourself?"

Sometimes when you're told for many yrs one thing its hard to believe any different.

I'm definitely trying to work on it. At times I believe its a good thing because it pushes me harder to make myself better, and to prove to myself that I can do it.

Paynne · 09-27-2004, 06:57 PM

I not sure, but I think I may have gotten better gains from PRRS I. Although I DO like working down in the 1-2 rep range on power week.

Just as long as you keeping trying you have won! You may have to prove to yourself that you can do it but to all of us here, we already know you can

	I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain...
