turbolean
turbolean Hey, keep the momentum going because you're going to see some incredible results. Remember, with each workout push a little harder so you can blast through any plateaus. Feed your lean muscles with high quality nutrition--treat your body like a ferrari not a pinto ;-) I just wrapped up my first BodySpace blog and encourage you to watch the inspirational YouTube video I posted in the blog...strong mind=strong body!

VillainChien
VillainChien Hey, man. How've you been. I don't know how you can grow at 6% body fat. I had a tough time with that at 12%, but I'm going to try it again. Do you carb cycle? Or how to you calculate your calories for it. Cheers! ViCh May 17, 2010 9:10am
