Jesus J'Bo you just totally read my mind! Your lats are AMAZING TANK!! As well as legs and arms and shoulder width and calves. Ok so your carrying a little extra body weight. sheeit you can loose that in your sleep. YOU ARE the MAN to set my target on for sure. If I can't beat you I will sure as hell look damn good trying. hahahaha

 

[Tank316]

sad part is , i put that wt on in 1 1/2 months. the age factor is to blame for that though, not me. because in that months time i didnt drink beer or eat pizza or stop doing any type of cardio, nope not me
Thanks for the compliments guys, it helps

Be careful, go extra slow. I already sprained my knee by pushing myself too hard, thus forcing my body into a weakened state that put me at risk doing a simple task like moving boxes. Now I gotta ease back into my leg workouts. Saw your '99 pic recently so I know your potential.

i hear ya, i would think i'm old enough to know better, but i'm not just like a little kid who falls off his bike, gets back on and falls off again.

Your workout are exceptional Tank. I'm taking notes (sneakily writing) Your poundage is very much admired here bro. I can't even imagine barbell rows with that kind of weight anymore. Even If my upper back could handle it, my lower won't due to back injury years ago. I struggle just to stay in position with 225.
