ppgfreak,
Not in the military anymore, now private, I only get home for 30 days then I'm out again, constant cycle. I am not looking to cut or slim, as regards my frame I wanted to bulk more if anything. Ok guys I will end the thread here, you have all been fantastic on here with some thoroughly professional advice, though I may have been misread as I am not looking to get cut or ripped, that will be my fault as I was not clear in my opener.
I have decided not to take anything as it appears to me to be some kind of black art to understanding just the terminology, so disappointed to say the least. So as regards all your advise I suppose you have steered me away from possibly making a grave judgement error and losing my honor among the guys I live and work with. Again thanks for all comments and advice but this old soldier will crack on the hard way just like so many of you have suggested.
Dylan I will be in touch by priv message.
Again guys many thanks.
