Thanks alot, I hope that you hang around to see this whole thing unfold. And I feel very lucky to have been able to meet EME, I think it was one of the best things that could have happened to me on the quest to my goals.

Well you know when someone takes time out of their life to help people reach their true potential, there is something to be said about that. I admire that about you and I hope to be able to do the same in the future.

I plan to be at home EATING all weekend. I go to church Sunday morning but other than that I will be home.

Cool.

I have to see what Kendra has planned, but maybe you guys can come over on Saturday. I'll have to check the weather, but maybe we can grill out or something like that.

That way I can make sure you are eating enough.

Maybe I will be lucky enough to get some picks posing with EME and we will see just how far I have to go. I am excited to see the pups too, I love Bulldogs. I have a Shephard right now but I am trying to convince my wife that I need a Bulldog

I know that I mentioned this in my review for yesterday but I am really noticing some pain in my wrists and elbows. It seems to have happened after the heavy BB shrugs. I didn't use any straps but it felt fine at the time. I didn't really warm up for them but I had already done my other exercises. And my legs are pretty achy too. Maybe I am just being a pansy but I will whip into shape tonight on legs

I do immense stretching for at least 15 minutes before working out, and in between sets I do as well. I do use straps for shrugs as my hands are very small and id lose grip without them. I use hooks too. I started using straps for bent over rows when I got to the 45 pound DB's. Whatever helps.

I also started taking cissus 3 x a day about 2 weeks ago, I know its helping already with joints/tendons. My wrists never get sore but elbows do, and of course shoulders from past surgeries, but I have a very fast recovery due to Xtend and Regeneration X by ALRI.

Make sure to drink tons of water

LOL... just a fair warning... have you seen how much bulldogs cost??
Might want to look into that before you bring it up to your wife!

As for the posing pics..... LOL.... I have a long way to go. I'm just a sliver of my normal self at the moment. Give me a few months and then I'll be ready to posedown!

I have pretty strong grip and I haven't really stretched that much before except in TKD. I will try to stretch a bit more and see if that helps and I am sure that once the Xtend and Flax kick in I will notice a difference.

eme: i have checked into them before and they are quite expensive but my shephard was $1500 and thank god I have a good friend that gave him to me or I wouldn't have a dog at all.

Well i was hoping to get you in some pics with me while you are on your come back so that I didn't look too small. Maybe Kendra will pose? Oh wait she would kick my ass too. :lol3:

Yep... they are about $1500 - $2000.

We only bought Lily. Daisy is Lily's baby, and we rescued Louie off the Highway believe it or not.

LOL... Kendra looks much better than me at the moment. She's ripped... You're much better off posing with me. LOL
