If that is the case, then what possessed you to make that thread in BB.com

First off, how was my diet off in that thread?
Second.. conflicting goals? I've wanted to get bigger and stronger sicne I stepped foot in the weight room two years ago.
Third. Lack of progression?
well noone answered my question in that thread. I Guess I'm progressing wrong by adding 5 pounds each workout / week. That's what rippetoe said. How do I specifically progress. Say I want to bench 135. How do I get there?

Follow a linear progression...?
Just out of curiosity, have you ever done a set to failure?

1)180g of protein daily. "Recommended" is 1.5g per lb lean body mass. (ie., more than 180)
2)In the thread I listed you said you wanted to get rid of some stubborn stomach fat. You can't hope for specific fat loss in your stomach area while trying to bulk up your upper body.
3)Your progression was off because you started at a weight that was too high.

You presently have way smarter people than myself advising you, but if I can throw one thing in here, just realize your situation: you posted a while back, we helped you out enormously, you slam the entire forum on another board, now you come back and want more help, and we're supplying it. Why Kane/Ross/the others are bothering is a mystery to me but you better recognize the rarity of a guy who's going to help you when you give the strong impression that you'd rather be helpless. Appreciate it.

no, im not going to bother with this thread. call me an asshole or perhaps i just need my beauty rest as IW has kindly pointed out but i really don't give two shits about some idiot's lack of progress. since he's rejected everyone's advice, he deserves what comes his way.

Yeah sometimes, it depends on the lift. Usually on my last set I fail on the last rep, say I was doing 4-6 rep range.. I'll fail on the 5th of the second [last] set
