[Woody-5]

Been away for a few weeks but glad to see you're still crushing it!

spectacular work on the bench! Closing in on 300 fast!

that 190 x20 backoff is insane, whole body had to be quivering afterwards.

300 is gonna feel good!

I thought about chasing 3 plates again, but the time needed to dedicate to that just doesn't fit in with my current mountain goals.

Whats the post workout feast gonna be after smashing that big bench? You're always eating well

Well unsure at this point, Probably something with a huge plate of beef and for sure a decadent chocolate cake lol... This concept / program I am putting together is a 16 week bulk / strength program then I will take a rest week or to and ramp down the volume and weight before doing a Restart and chasing 315.
I am at week 12 and strength gain is obvious so far and lean weight increase is approx 13lbs, the interesting part is the first 5 weeks saw a steady bf increase then from week 6 till now its been progressively dropping back. I am hoping to see sub 15 by week 16...

REALLY sad I have to block /ignore so many BUT the great part is if Anyone wants friendship and reaches out to me I will happily unblock them But my history here on bodybuilding.coms forums is a history of most members here hating on me, ignoring me, refusing my attempts reaching out, total lack of support even after I follow them and support them. So my only option has been to Block /Ignore most members.. Again though I always leave it up to YOU reach out your hand in friendship and I will accept it dont and you stay blocked

[charlievanriper]

well done!

Thx Brother, Be a couple days till I'm able to train again . Today I slipped and fell carrying one of my large ladders, pretty bruised up so resting.
Bruised up the left arm both knee's. On a good note though I finished running the new water line in the attic from my RO Tank to my refrigerator, that was a dirty pain in the ass job but it's done..

[charlievanriper]

Good News today found No hairline fracture just bad bruising, Swelling is starting to go down but my knee's still hurt, they should be better by next week but I am sure pressing can continue maybe even tomorrow. I will know when I wake up tomorrow if I will test the waters or not
