Hey how's it going with your goal to squat 405 lbs by March? You should check out my profile again, I have a new pic up of me measuring my right thigh at 31", they've actually gotten 2" bigger than before since now I'm squatting 225 lbs for sets of 20 reps the volume has totally ballooned them up!
will do, im not going low carb, just replacing my carbs from grains with fruit. I got lots of high carb fruit from the store: dates, bananas, frozen pineapple, mango, berries.

Brett, thank you for such a heartfelt comment and the friendship invitation. I appreciate your encouragement and good wishes - it helps to hear this kind of feedback when the going gets tough as it does occassionally. I am happy you wanted to be friends. Hope you'll drop in to say hi now and then.
