And kudos on the deadlifts brah! I've been hitting that pretty hard for me too...just did 315x5 this morning but I think I could have gotten about 7-8 reps if my damn grib would have been better. Oh well! Good hearing from you dude!

Bummer about your car brah, been there! Had a flat tire out of the blue the other day..sucks! Anyways, just keeping busy, my lifts have been going great lately. I actually just ran an Epi/Tren cycle and now just started PCT today...and hopefully cut up again. Gained about 12 lbs on that cycle...people have been commenting on how huge my arms look, which is pretty sweet. Anyways, i'm glad the cycle is over though...time to start dropping the lbs again...hopefully get down under 235 again.

Well I actually had a spot on diet all week and did 2 a days at the gym and lost 10 lbs for the week. I think I might have overdid it a little but I did pack on like 10 lbs over a few weeks time during the time which it felt like a lot of water so i think i lost a quite a bit of that which i was holding.
