[quote=walterwhite]I read some med research that said u can only max metabolize about one extra oz of muscle per day or a couple pounds a month. Not much in one sense but on the other picture 2 pounds of hamburger spread out all over you. Not bad
like saving for a down payment. No one month makes a huge differencejusg gotta keep going.
I am frequenting a lot of muscle type chat groups and may have to drop piggington for testosterone nation or bodybuilding or some other group.[/quote]
scaredy, I’m really glad to hear this. I’ve found that spending eves/wknds at the gym keeps me from frequenting the “Big House” as often and indulging my “boxed wine habit.” And it’s much better for your health!

Of course, in your case, you may not be able to stay away during the business day, lol :=]
[quote=walterwhite]the internet seems to believe that the Squat is the King of exercises, with the deadlift a close second[/quote]
Depends on your goals really. Nothing wrong with squats they are great but you really need to do them in a Power Rack so that you can drop without killing yourself. Deads at 95% of max are much better for sprinters or runners.
[quote=zk]Anybody tried or know much about p90x? I’ve always been skeptical about stuff like “muscle confusion.” It always seems like a gimmick to sell something. But a guy at work did it and he swears by it. He’s been running 30-40 miles a week for years (still does) and still, he says the p90x transformed him.[/quote]
Kind of opposite of the direction Walter is going. More of an aerobic type burn rather that getting strong.
I use a power cage for squats and bench presses. I’d be very scared to do either outside the cage.
I love being all safe in my cage.
