worth it all!

MeatZatk · 04-05-2004, 07:02 PM

I just wanted to share a great little experience with all of you whom I've taken advice from on this site. Last night I was playing some pool with an old friend of mine that I haven't seen in a long time. We were sitting there, catching up on old times when out of the blue he looks down at my arms and says "Jesus, how often do you go to the gym?" I just got a goofy grin on my face and said five days a week. It was just such a great feeling to have someone actually see results and the fact that those results could bring on questions of how I got so big. To anyone who's frustrated with not making gains right now, just stick it out and push through those ruts, I've been there...I've been stuck in ruts for months at a time but as soon as you break through them you can look back and say that every rep of every set was worth the time and effort you put into it. Thanks to everyone who has helped me get through my ruts.

I dont get a lot of verbal attention, but one kid at Burger King nearly fell backwards when I came through the door when he was leaving, funny.

I bet if you didn't push him out of the way in the mad rush for a double wopper he would have never fallen
