Ok...I've just spent the entire evening with an old friend who really motivated me quite a bit. He reminded me in a glimpse of why I train in this crazy sport of lifting weights. I have glanced back at the evening and have tried to remember everything that we spoke about and tried to consume it at all costs. We discussed several people that we both had known along our journey of becoming large humans...and laughed at most of the people who put us down along the way.
While at Wal-Mart tonight, buying my groceries for the week, I saw all kinds of people that I hadn't seen in a long time. Young girls from Church, friends from that Chem class my Soph year of college, and an old buddy from the gym. They all had the same question. "Are you going to eat all of that this month?" I said no...I am shopping for the week only.
My friend from the gym kept looking at me in awe. He hadn't seen me in about 2 or 3 years. I know that he was giving me that "you use steroids" look. He was just amazed at how much larger I had become. I just knew that he was thinking to himself "that guy is using a ton of steroids. I'd look like that if I was on what he was." BS!!!! It couldn't be because I had filled my buggy with groceries and the fact that he had spent his money on Doritos, Mountain Dew, and Blockbuster movies. Naaa... It couldn't be that he is only lifting on machines now and I am killing myself in my home dungeon...naaaa.
So...I compiled this list tonight of how to grow. At the top of the list it says Wal-Mart, and at the bottom it has a total.
Recipe:
4 gallons 1% milk
2 gallons skim milk (thought I'd give it a whirl)
2 10lb bags of chicken breasts
1 bucket of mac salad
14 cans of tuna
8 boxes of mac and cheese
8lbs hamburger
1 box white rice
5 sweet potatoes
1 box oatmeal
1 gallon oj
5 steak and mac dinners
4 boxes hamburger helper
12 cups yogurt
Well...that's it in a nutshell. Buy it every Sunday afternoon and make it a goal to eat it all by next Sunday. Sure...you may have a little left over, maybe a lot of one item, but that just means that you don't have to buy it next week. Improvise. Add and subtract when needed but replace it with something else. Ahhhh....and the key is 1/2 price pizza delivery on Thursday. X-tra large meatlovers...ahhhhh...can't wait till Thursday
Well...good wishes and remember that it is not the gear, juice, or whatever you may believe that makes me a large man. It is training, food, and consistancy. Good wishes, God Bless, and I hope that someone actually takes my advice and tries it.
