My story is this as a child my doctor told my mother that I have epileptic seizure disorder. My life change big time, my mother put limits on me as a child. One day I was in the bookstore reading a bodybuilding book and I got hooked on the life style. My high school years was great it was the 80's and our high school gym had some good weights for a beginer. I began making fast gains with the Joe Weider's system, for over 20th years now.I want to move on to 2003 I was told have very high cholesterol and I need to get this under control, so I began to go back to what helped me with my seizure and I know it would control this condition.

Yup. Its an awesome book. Not only does it help you diet, it helps you set goals. its very inspirational. Good luck in whatever you aspire to do or be.
Hey, I read your comment on wanting to lose some belly fat, and I think I have a good tip for you. I recommend reading the book Burn the Fat, Feed the Muscle, by Tom Venuto. This book is a great way to learn how to diet correctly. I have been on this diet for 1 year and have lost 70 lbs. About lipo 6x, dont depend on a product to lose fat, dieting is most important.
I don't like Lipo 6X, I tried it and did nothing for me. I like Ergopharm Amp and ALRI Venom. I would really watch the diet and increase the cardio and your BF will drop. -Phil
Way to go James!! Great job...great photos in your gallery!! Keep it up Man!!...Impressive!...Animal Flex works great...super lubrication. Later..geoff
Thanks man. Honestly, to get cut in 60 days-strict diet, loads of cardio, obviously water has to be flushed and a good protein like ON 100% Whey. There are no magic pills just hard work and determination. Just recently I have tried ALRI Venom and I like it but it does not substitute my cardio. Talk to you later. -Phil
