I'm still amazed at how much volume and weights you do in such a short period of time. You are extremely consistant even while cutting. Great job!

Your workout? I'm too young and pretty to die...

I'm getting used to my bi-weekly split..so..if I DO..miss workouts...which...seems I do...I'll have agood chance of at least hitting the body once per week...I think I do have the sytem worked out. (I just had court yesterday and threw me off)
Go into work early, take my 2 hours. (travel to gym, workout, go home((5 minutes from gym)) eat, shower and be back to work and finish 8 hours)

Glad to hear that the missus is doing better. That's gotta be load off your mind.
Sounds like this weekend is gonna be good for you.

how'd u like the front squats? It seems for that when you get the bar in the 'cradle' of your crossed arms...the bar is up against your throat and almost wants to choke you...

here y go.
Step up to the bar. It should be almost at shoulder height.
fold your arms like barbara Eden from I Dream of Genie.
the bar will rest in the natural 'crook' of the shoulder girdle.
make sure you hold your folded arms level to keep the bar locked in place.
The bar should also put a little pressure upon your throat. (the part I am not wild about)
Then, squat. and repeat.
I just saved u two days worth of work. No need to thank me...just send money...

Sister Fit - See Brother Burners next post!!! LOL!!!

Brother Bolt - Thank you my Friend, go for it, I actually feel them more than the back squats!!!

Brother Burner - You da Man, thank you my Friend!!!

Huh??

If I fold my arms and the bar rests on my elbows, why would it put pressure on my throat? There's a good 12 inches from my neck to my elbows....that's no makey sense
