congrats man! We're all gonna make it, brahs.

Happy Birthdayyyyyyy!!!!

I bring my bands around when i travel, and they work pretty well IMO

lol, water and a spoon, just eat the whey chunks like a true bro! (>＾-＾)7

I will protein shake all the time, I think they are great.

congrats man!

"halc birthday!" get it? it's a pun!

Hey Wes, I hope your day is super awesome and that you do something extra special and cool! Happy birthday!

Get it man! No gains shall escape you!

keep at it, bros! i'm just maintaining status quo right now, and trying to figure out my game plan for the fall. Shoulders and arms mostly for 2014-2015.

happy birthday!

that sounds awesome

21! not that many, but i just like to play 3-4 of them anyways

Seconding on goblet squats; even holding a backpack filled with books will get results pretty well. Actually, a backpack filled with books would be good to add weight to pushups and such as well.

stretches after; before won't give you the help you need when you need it. It does seem a little weird, though a smith machine may force your body to move in a somewhat unnatural way than if you were doing free barbell. which may be part of the issue. Maybe try doing some lighter goblet squats (100lb if you have a dumbbell that heavy at your gym)in addition to help get that motion worked.

Anyone getting super uptight over this show is missing the point; I think it'll be great to watch with my son, who really likes Sonic and is 5.

5-10 min cardio to warm up, do all your lifting to deplete the glycogen, then long-term cardio. Your routine won't burn that much gycogen though, so you can probably do whatver you want, whenever you want to.

Absolutely love this one; solid performances, confident deliveries, and great flow. Soundscapes are fresh and cool, and it's a shame that it took forever to post. A++ would listen to again.

for machine, always go actual. The weights on machines is generally a bit misleading, because they are on a track. For example, doing a barbell bench press, I can typically push 235-240 pounds, but on a machine, I can basically add 100 to it and do around 350. The same for flies, where I will do a dumbbell fly for 40 pounds, but on a pec deck machine, i will top it out at 300 and it still feels light.

ok, i was totally wondering how you could be several percentage points of bodyfat lower than me, and still be the same weight. I'm 5'9, so that's a ridiculously huge difference!

Nice work! How tall are you, btw?

At rank 12 right now, kindof just hanging out here until I get a win streak or start getting some legendaries of my own, I think. I have been playing a combo hunter build, and it's really good with the right matchup. I don't think I can beat a control warrior deck ever, but a lot of stuff like aggro warlock or paladin/priest/mage is pretty easy.

Can you elaborate? I get a little mad when they drop legendary after legendary on me, but that just means that my main plan didn't work, which is kill them before they can do so. Otherwise it seems fine.

well damn, just when i finished a logo for the team ;_;

i've been blessed by Brodin with a super mesomorph build, and the bod pod guy was like "every percent of fat you clear out from here on out will make you look like a different person. It's good to hear that you managed to maintain a lot of lifts, I have a feeling i'll maintain bench and chins, as those are my best lifts, but the other stuff, who knows. I've reduced a but of volume while cutting, and just tried to maintain the weight, which seems to be working well. This week i'm carb cycling so I can look at least a little shredded for the PAX east costume, and i'll be aiming for about 7-8% for the summer, and maintain that. Three days since starting the carb cycle, im down 2lb already, though my guess is it's all water. Anyways, when I hit 8% i'll post some pics. As I cut down, I can start to see what i need to work on, mainly rear delts, upper chest, and quads. At this point, i've built a good enough strength foundation that I am transitioning into full Zyzzthetics mode, and my frame can support about 10-15lb more muscle before I hit my genetic max, so I have plenty to work for over the next few years. I do like the idea of doing DDR for cardio as well, so I wonder if i can find my old pad and throwdown. Maybe teach james how to do it.
