Archie Tell me buddy, what dont you understand?

Tom I am hoping I will push alot. But we shall see. My diet hasnt been the best, but there sure has been alot of food consumption! And I have been eating every 2.5 hours, so atleast I am getting the cals, protein, carbs, and fats I need to be a super power!

Well some super fuckin shitty news I got yesterday! I will be losing my job in 3 months! I have a baby on the way in August and these cocksuckers are cutting 70 jobs in our place of emplyment. Thats about 1/2 of the employees. Hell theres 125 people who have been there 25 years +. And I have only been there for 2, so go figure. Oh well hopefully something will pop up!

Anyways got any info on becomming a personal trainer. I figure I know plenty to get my started on that, however I will have to relocate, because the demand wouldnt be around here. I am trying to think positive here, I figure atleast I can get away from swing shift and I can try and get a straight days job! Wish me luck.

no no....

i did do DC for 4 months with terriffic success but ive changed my goals and im now onto the whole 5x5 bandwagon. the only thing is ive read Mark Rippetoe's Practical Programming and it was fanastic and my routine is using the principles in that..it is still a 5x5 program, but not the conventional one..

why do u ask?

I dont think so. I think my little growth is from dead lifts which i tend to do mixed grip with the right hand in overhand grip. If you look at my pics you can see my right trap is noticeable bigger than the left one.

Sounds good to me Brutus. They dont look that one sided though. Try doing some heavy upright rows with DB's.

Cant D my left shoulder is always bitching and upright rows tend to hurt shoulders.

That sucks about the job situation, DD. Got any leads? At least you've got a little time to work on it, rather than you just showing up one day and them telling you you're out of work.
