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?

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

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.
