"Merceneries, Elementals, Necromongers . . . Shit, I've never been so popular. I should probaly slip these chains and open up a few arteries. But why drive when you can get driven? Free ticket to Crematoria. Thanks Toombs. Got me some business there, named Jack. And once we settle up, I walk away forever. So I'll just wait... all back-of-the-bus for now. "

quick update: training is going well, almost back in PR territory again
squats have been going well. no knee problems and i'm real close to volume PR's with the weight I used tonight.

weekends have been rough as far as getting all my food into me so my weight has been a bit static. Today i told EVERYONE that there is nothing they can say or do that is keeping me from the dinner table from now until xmas so stay the fuck outta my way!



i havent taken any measurements in a while so i cant say where i am as far as that goes.

anyway that's it for now.

Bout time Riddick

When ever you feel like quitting give me a shout and I'll kindly remind you of all those naysayers over at you know what forum!!

I am sure we can all come up with something that will pack some mass on you too.I am not sure about HST, I have heard it fails to look after the strength element too much.But I am only going off what I "think: I read about it LOL.I would recommend Wendlers training 3 days a week ebook (its only like $20).It has some great layouts for powerlifting and bodybuilding.His "boring but big" routine comes to mind too.


Now kick some ass mate.

yo Hops!
i'm definitely going to do a bunch of poking around and get myself well-informed before i decide what course of action to take with a hypertrophy based program because right now i really know jack squat about it.

it has been good to see you back

deload week all done, woo hoo!

next week I'll be back up over 200lbs on deads and squats are only 20lbs away from my PR so i am chomping at the bit to get back to real training again!

the bench is still my worst exercise by far but i know it'll get better. my problems with benching are almost all related to the last 4-5 inches of the bottom part of the movement and there is no doubt in my mind the reason for that was i always avoided a full ROM because of shoulder issues on the right side. the funny thing is, since consciously adopting a full ROM on the bench and also working on OH presses my shoulder probs seem to be gone almost completely. but it's slow going for sure

diet has been ultra-consistent and I've already added back a 1/2" to my arms and about an inch to my thighs. Crikey, dont we all wish the new gains came as fast as the re-gains, lol! since coming back to my training my diet plan is if i eat good all week, no missed meals no "un-friendly" foods, then on sunday i reward myself with a treat of some kind. this sunday it'll be that nice pint of Ben and Jerry's super fudge brownie ice cream that sitting in my freezer right now, mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!!!

have a great weekend everyone, well, everyone except Pity of course

haha...fuggin jerk

lol, i knew you'd like that!

but all jesting aside have a great one Pity, you da man!

see, i am pretty cool 87 year-old after all
