ive met layne 5-6 times, and trained with him twice.
Trained with Tommy jeffers, Kurt Weidner, Brian Whitacre, Ryan Doris, FitnPaul off these forums (Paul R), ROb Moran, Derek "Da Beast". The whole Scivation crew from the olympia and arnold experiences. not to mention tons of people off this board when i travel around to bodybuilding shows.

meeting a guy from the nutrition section this weekend for mexican and ice cream in pittsburgh.

[Bonkies]

oh lawd Ryan Doris, seems like a really cool dude.

[ThousandEyes]

Damn man you get around...you gotta try the shamrock shake...I remember those from my fatty days, they banged

[The Solution]

oh lawd Ryan Doris, seems like a really cool dude.

Honestly one of the nicest individuals you can ever meet. We worked the booth and he also shot a V-Log at the arnold that year and had me in it a lot, we trained every night because he stayed next door to me (with tommy jeffers) at that arnold classic. I stayed with Ron Parameter (a Core Representative)

Right about 3:20 minutes is where you see me for a bit, again at 4 minutes etc...

Some great insight at the end from Tommy Jeffers (hence why you saw me talking to him all expo hah)

Its not march is it? That would be my birthday month. Plus i was dieiting for my show last march, so i was on refeeds and not cheat meals. A Shamrock shake in 40-45g of fat daily , not so optimal.

Met both of these guys. Layne, I only spoke to for like 2 minutes, but I was basically star struck because he is the first natural bodybuilder I ever heard of lol

RD I used to see on the daily and lift with. A VERY humble, intelligent young man. He has a great head on his shoulders.

Bob - your F'ing shamrock shake cupcakes are $$$

Killing me, why not go grill with the Panthers like you did a few weeks ago during mini-camp? sounded like a blast. You met Cam right?
Never been to mellow mushroom, but heard good things.

I have Authetic Mexican lined up for tomorrow night with a guy from the nutrition section and Dave n Andy's for Ice Cream (famous pittsburgh resturant that has new flavors daily --- Nutella and Cinnamon Toast Crunch hoping for those)

Saturday after my training partner (MattyH7688) off the forums competes will be cheesecake factory.

Gonna be a good weekend down in pittsburgh for the NPC Elite Physique show.

[psychodiver9]

Mellow mushroom is legit. Wish ours wasn't across town. Never go

[The Big Sleep]

The best part of this weekend will be watching Peyton tear the Steelers a new A-hole

Not to mention Ryan Clark cant play because of the altitude problems
Well see. the steelers D is strong, but if our offensive line cant protect ben with already one of our lineman out for the year and 2 RB's hurt we will be in trouble.

Our reciveres are tough and plus we just got mike wallace back with antonion brown. 2 deadly long bomb's for ben right there.
