I plummeted to 244 yesterday following Fridays workout, but by tonite had rebounded to 249, it wasn't just the rest, I worked 16 out the last 24 - call me Jack Boeur, but I think the TIME plays a roll- my body can only replenish so fast, going to try and get up and train tommorrow before work.

Sorry to hear about your elbow James. I've had problems with tendonitis in mine for years! Yours will heal though!
Awesome numbers man, continues to amaze me! You should post some pics soon, workout pics would be awesome!

Man, like I keep saying your workouts remind me of Mike Mentzer's training from the 70's! I used to follow his training every month in Muscle Builder Magazine! I still have them!
Mike would be proud!

Thank you! That's what I mostly model my workouts on, and that you notice that inspires ME. I think those routines really pay off- I'd you can do them- as you know, not everyone can. We simply MUST chat soon- about training, bodybuilding in general. I know you know a hell of a lot, and I'm trying to take it up several notches, maybe even hit your physique level or more for next years Masters. Again, thanks for the kind words and taking the time to check in. I've had a horribly busy week but its almost done, and Friday I'm off work.

Ps, I'd love if you could photo copy those articles, if you could, I'd cover the cost and the postage. Pps. Just weighed myself 253! - no bloat, slightly soft- not shredded or even ripped, but still have some thigh separation, cuts in delts, etc. At 6 2. . Heaviest I've been in the last 6 years!

Yes, we can talk training anytime you want, that would be great.
I've probably tried more things that didn't work than things that have! lol
Yeah, I'll try to dig out those old magazines and copy them for you. I should have more time after my contests. Mike was my hero when I was in high school, I couldn't wait for the next issue to come each month!
With your super strength and drive to improve I don't see how you can fail to reach your goals!

Thanks bro! I tried a lot of things that sounded good on paper- that weren't so good in the gym. And conversely, tried stuff that peoplet were foun doing in the gym which didn't work well at all. I appreciate the copies of the articles when you get a chance is fine, I just appreciatet you doing it. Going to pop over to your journal when I finish here.
