I atrophied so bad after my accident. It's been almost 6 months now and I am still in the PT stage. Someday! Someday! Man I am looking to get back those days of solid lifting.

Working out 3x/day, pyramiding up to 1RMs on OH work 2x/week, benches/squats/cleans all 1x/week, DL 1x/week, rows for heavy sets of 3-5 2x/week, chins in the 50-60 total rep range 2-3x/week, working arms directly 3x/week... Yeah, I was 18, ate kinda decent, and had raging hormones. I was also strong as a f@ckin' bull. Gotta say, seeing how pussified gyms have become today, I'd rather see kids that didn't know any better train that way than how they are today. Just sayin'. *shrug* Wiggy http://www.workingclasscardioworkout.com http://www.workingclassfitness.com Ha – man, this reminds me of my bodybuilding-inspired training days back in high school.

I remember watching my Dad and the guys he worked out with. They'd be on the leg press machine...they would have as much weight as they could on the thing and then they would sit on it to add more weight! I wanted to get to that level so bad...and I did. I remember doing leg extensions with the full rack, I'd go to the gym and work out again after football lifting sessions...all sorts of dumb stuff, but I did not know any better. They were dumb times..but they were good times! Haha…this reminds me of when I was just starting to lift too. I remember watching my Dad and the guys he worked out with.

I've always had this thing about being bored when I stand around curling DB's and puffing at counting reps. Darn! doing it hard and hitting it tough is glorious! I love it! I like your style! The Beast speaks for itself! Bloody good treatment against boredom. Hey Zach!
