Hello everyone. My name is Heath. I am a 20 year old college student. I just recovered from a torn rotator cuff, but after seven months of physical therapy, Im going back to the gym hard. I am embarking on a one year bulking diet/ workout regimen.

I have been asking around for some help so I get started off on the right foot, and have received really good advice. Tomorrow, tuesday April 15th, 2008 will be the first day. I will post my workout and diet plan in the next post. I have to change some things. If anyone has any advice about what I am doing, let me know. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks everyone, and I hope you enjoy my journal.

welcome to the journals heeth. people here are serious and will give good advice. best way to get people to check out your journal, btw, is to be active on other's journals.

be careful what you ask for though because we're good at cracking the whip

good luck on your journey!
