This routine has me growing like crazy! I take my sets to failure at those reps. Never much worried about %'s. I don't even know my maxes so that's out of the question anyway. My one day off bugs the crap out of me too. It takes everything I've got not to go then as well. Sometimes I will but just for a cardio session. May be overtraining for some but it seems to be magic for me.

My best bodypart is my DELTS!

I'm always looking to improve so if you have experience and know what you're talking about then by all means please let me know. I'd appreciate it. That statement is for everyone. THANKS!!!

Not enough right now bubba but I'm working on that. Looks like you're working hard. Kept it up because I need a good role model.

Just curious.. how long have you been lifting?

-5'11 242lbs.
-Chest is 50 1/4 (Big back and improving. Now I'm just trying to pull my chest back up to par now that my shoulder is allowing me to)
-Arms 18 1/4 (Never been consistant on tris but that's changing now. Great bicep size)
-Forearms are 15 3/4 (Going to start training forearms again)
-Quads are 29 1/8 (Just beginning to be consistant at all. Loving squats now.)
-Calves 17 3/4 (Haven't work them much but that's changing now)

I need to lose 20lbs. to be an absolute ROCK!!! (Main focus now)

Been back training now for less than three months after a 7-8 month layoff. It's coming back extremely quick and God willing I'll be better than ever soon enough!

I lifted 15-17 years of age like a mad man. Then I discovered weed, girls, and beer... I kept lifting but not hard. Just in class which was mainly messing around. After HS I didn't lift for 3-4 years. Lifted fairly consistantly for a year or so after that. Didn't all last softball season which was about 7 months. Been lifting now for about three. I'm sure the time frames are not exact but that's the best I can do.

I wasn't talking smack about your hitting. I did see your vids awhile back. You got any more recent?
Just talking smack about your alter ego(s)

I'd like to be 7-8%. I have no idea where I am know but it's not 7-8%.

I was about 140-150 in 4th grade (FAT ASS!) so I've had to work hard when I've worked to get where I am. Grew out of that... At 16-17 you would have sworn I was on roids. No kidding. I had breast (At this time it was muscle )! Bigger than I am now but I wasn't as strong. At the time I wanted to be a freakin MONSTER! Now I just want to look good. Hopefully I answered your question somewhere in there. Sorry just a little background.

Absolutely! Never did steroids because I was kind of afraid to.

I've got 5-6 shots on this computer that are over 400ft. It was pretty windy though so I never posted. I will soon I hope. What kind of hitter are you anyway? Power, average, or just sucky..?

-Designer Whey (have about three months worth left. Love the results!)
-Prosource Creatine (maybe three weeks worth left. Won't be taking anymore because I'm trying to cut. This stuff is amazing for me!)
-Prosource Glutamine (2 months left. Unsure if glutamine does much as far as size goes.)
-Pinnacle NO2 (2 1/2 months left. Seems to be over-rated!)
-Prolab BCAA's (2 months left)
-Joint Fuel (2 months left)
-Vitamin E, C, and multi-vitamins

Sucky I consider myself a tablesetter. I bat Leadoff or second. I have a high OBA.

Wow man. Sounds like your off to a great start. The only thing I'd be concerned for you is overtraining. Pretty high volume to be going to failure each set. What is your diet like?

That's what it's all about!
