My wife and I took a motorcycle trip in Montana a few years back. Flew out, rented a dresser, rode 2200 miles in 10 days (easy 200 mi days, lots of sight seeing). Saw Great Falls, Glacier National...
Very cool to see this turned out on a positive note!

Energy drink? Black coffee. Drinking my 3rd cup right now as I start my back workout.

I hear you about the mast p and e together. The original idea was to use the mast p to get it in my system quickly and then maintain with the mast e. But when I dropped the p, my system didn't like...
I would love to try a maintenance dose of HGH like this, but like others have said, it's so expensive! Interestingly, I just had a conversation about this very thing with a doc yesterday. He's on TRT...
I don't think this is true. Excessive red meat, maybe can be said to shorten one's life due to relatively high fat content and LDL. But a lot of that that depends on the particular cut of beef....
I was logging faithfully when I was doing a 5x5 routine. It was the only way I could keep track of progress. And since I trained in a couple different places at the time, I used a spreadsheet on my...
I feel like I should know this after 30 years of weight training - and I guess I do, but want some verification or validation, or whatever.
On the "negative", meaning going down from standing to...
Yesterday's leg workout had to be cut short, so I was only able to fit in squats and leg press, but I did my empty bar warmup set; 135 x 12 warmup; 225 x 10 (also sort of a warmup, I guess); 315 x...
Work and home responsibilities have severely limited my available workout time since August. I COULD tak the time to train on weekends when I've been off; but if I did, I'd sacrifice something else...
I'm good! Thanks for asking. Have done several normal, heavy leg workouts; have started playing hockey again as of 3 weeks ago; spent all day yesterday splitting firewood (swinging a splitting maul...
I've been using Test Prop, Mast Prop and Mast E together lately. By lately I mean maybe for the past year. It looks like this:
Mon and Fri:
TP 50mg
ME 250mg
MP 50mg
Wed
TP 50mg
MP 50mg
Like Guns said, keep them moving. I've had them in both hands; knees bent, back straight; then raise them up high and slap hard down on the floor. Do this at a good pace for 30 seconds or a minute...
You can really get the heart rate up using the rope, too. I don't have one but have used it in the past.

I hate "NO" signs in general. But "NO" signs like this in a gym I find especially offensive! No chalk? No grunting??? DOES ANYBODY HERE KNOW WERE IN A FUCKING GYM??? Oh... I forgot.... No yelling...
Hell yeah, 500+ is no joke. I'm 5-9 and 200. This kid was probably 5-11 and I bet he was right around the same weight. But strong as hell on deadlift.
I watched him to see if he looked like he...
I'm out of town for work this week and am training at the Edge Fitness near the hotel. Didn't get up early enough to go in the morning, which is my preference, so I went in the afternoon.
Leg day,...
No names here. But I do have a portrait of my wife on my forearm. Got it after 15 years of marriage; we're married 19 now.

I ditched the knee wraps and belt a long time ago too. I still use the grip wraps when deadlifting when I get into the heavier sets. Otherwise I can't hold onto the bar for more than 2 or 3 reps.

Well, I walk a lot of stairs at work. Not a few flights. I work at a power plant and am up and down stairs all day long. The hamstring has gotten so it feels fine taking stairs 2 at a time, no...
Hm. Guns, I don't want to say, "I hate you for saying this", but....... I was just thinking about doing a back workout tomorrow morning, to include deadlifts. And was pondering the wisdom of...
I hate to have to ask a remedial question, but what is BPC? Sounds like good stuff for healing injuries.

I did this for probably 6 months. It was a great routine, if very time consuming.

Little bit of an update on this. I noticed this morning that my upper calf - just below the knee joint - is all purple. What I think must have happened is that my hamstring did bruise, but deep...
If a "very loud" sound is a qualifier for a full thickness tear, then I didn't tear it. Thank goodness for that. Nor do I have any lumps, knots, dents or holes. Still no bruising. And, maybe most...
While deadlifting this morning (conventional, not stiff leg), my hamstring "popped" about halfway up from the floor. I was focusing on ham and glute engagement; good form; etc. And watching in the...
Doesn't everyone do this??? LMAO! I know they don't... I train in my own gym in my basement. I have 4 different style plates. Not only must I have a symmetrical stack on each side of the barbell; but...
Not only that, BUT! I read a lot. You wouldn't believe how often "auto-correct" errors turn up in books! I don't think anyone actually proofreads anymore, it must all be done using spell check and...
And I just realized how late to the party I am... lol! Never saw pages 2 through 4 and somebody already saud this a few times over... LOL!

Yeah, but the spirit of this comment still stands: I used to cut neighbors' lawns with my dad's push mower when I was 11, 12, 13. Too young to have working papers but old enough to want "stuff". Like...
The only thing I disagree with here is the negative connotation vis-a-vis Sarah Pahlin. I liked her a lot and thought she should have been the Presidential candidate rather than McCain. The leftist...
Coffee is my preworkout and the only source of caffeine for me unless I take Excedrin for a headache, which I do occasionally. I do not drink coffee OR take excedrin after noon time as a general rule...
How about asking the kid in the Radio Shack for a stylus for your turntable? LOL! Ok, I'm going back a few years as it is... But all you get is a blank stare...
My 3 on the tree was a '75 Chevy...
I'll add that she has recently gotten interested in shooting, self defense and owning a handgun. Thank God. But so far no classes or training and no gun. That aside, living here in the liberal...
Guns, I couldn't agree with you more. You hit the nail on the head 100%.
My wife has taken up running recently. She goes alone, but always to a well scoped out place where there are people around,...
I have to preface this by saying I've never been a football fan. Therefore my non-participation or non-watching is not really a result of the kneeling. But that does not in any way diminish my...
No signs of infection, thank goodness.
I've dropped test c for a little while and bumped up test p in the meantime. So now I have a mast p and test p only injection on Wed. 50mg ea, so a 1ml...
She actually has a pretty face. But I agree she's way too big to be feminine! How much testosterone does she need to take to achieve and maintain that size??
My favorite female bodybuilding look...
The past couple of years I've focused on the big, compound moves - largely because of my schedule and the need to get the most out of a short amount of available time in the gym. But deadlifts and...
+1 on hate cardio! I do my conditioning with a trainer and it's really anaerobic - "barbell conditioning". I wish I could get myself to jog or bike or something. Only other source of cardio for me is...
Like JG said, the texture is the most obvious difference. Wild is so much more dense and fine textured. It tastes different also, but that is subtle. We try to get wild caught but will buy farmed...
To me, all of this needs to be considered; it's all relevant when it comes to pay increases, even though in many cases personal performance and company performance aren't directly related. If a...
Yeah, not sure what the average age is on here... I'm 48; my youngest kid - a girl - or "young woman" more accurately - is 26. Sex for her generation is so casual it's unbelievable. I guess every...
Sounds like some great benefits, especially if health insurance only costs $80/month. That has to be for a single guy, is that right? Most of my coworkers pay HUNDREDS per month for family coverage....
I knew my comment was going to create controversy.....
The thing is, I have been to 2 funerals in a week for young people who OD'ed on H. People close to me in one way or another. They both...
I don't disagree with you on this. Not to .e tion that alcohol is physically addictive as well as psychologically. And on and on.
OTOH, there are plenty of people who drink "socially". I've...
Totally disagree with pot's relative safety. It's a gateway to harder things. I've been to 2 viewings in the past week for young people who OD'ed. They started out smoking pot.

Leg is almost back to normal. Did my 3.3ml injection in my glute this morning... maybe try the quad again next time. Thanks for the help, guys!
