haha that was a fun read... Include your weights; I wanna see if you get weaker as you approach show time.
I cant get any weaker, im already a pussy. Luckily in bodybuilding no one knows how much you lift. 18gauge is the only one who diets, can get sick, quit taking everything, and still get stronger. Basically hes what I call a Dick. Thats right not gifted, a Dick. lol Ill log them next session. Tom I train with my trainer. He has me going so fast ill see if I can take a mental note but mainly im usually thinking just dont pass out, breathe.
