I think you will get the best of both worlds. I believe there will be some dense muscle attained along with the same good old stuff that is all about a bodybuilders workout.

Me too. Looking good Archie! Can't wait until you do a meet. How much do you weigh right now and what weight are you hoping to compete at?



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...

They'll up his gym membership price to cover the cost of all the new plates he'll be requesting.
