Sorry bout the triple post, but I've thought about the advice a little more. Being fairly lean is more important to me, right now, rather than getting to compete. Like I said the weight doesn't matter too much to me just around the area would be fine. I'm mainly focused on building lean mass at this point in time. I've put a lot of time in at the gym, with lifting and all, and I just want to take that a bit further! All great advice though... I turn 26 in October! I would like to at least get in the cage by next summer. It's not a rush deal in any ways. With school coming up in a couple of weeks I won't have the necessary time anyways. I'm not even in that frame of mind just yet. I've put more into lifting than fight conditioning, and I'm just not ready for 3x3 minutes right now, I could hang but I'd get sloppy. I want to work on my wind for quite some time beforehand.. But for now I want to bulk cleanly. Thanks fellas.
