it's a 64 oz (I think) Kitchenaid blender...thing is cock diesel badass, lol

I'm tellin' ya ... couldn't taste the veggies.. i put a bunch in too... maybe 1.5 cups of broc...it thickened it up a ton...that's about the only downside.

Thank you!!! Holy Testical Tuesday to you too!!

Sweeeeeeeet!!

P.S. If you don't mind you'll have to hook a BFAM up with editage of previous post to throw that in there so i can update sig too

W O W ! I am AFRAID of broc...... I really need to try this. DO you think the berries and apple juice are have-to's for it not to taste bad? My current shake has whey/banana/oats in it and sometimes I add ANPB....thinking I would have to do your exact recipe to get the broc in????

I have made great progress (aestetically mostly... some strength) by wandering into the gym but i'm not here in my log to argue what works for me... it doesn't work for everyone. But it wasn't true strength training... ever really... strategically planned at least.

I wasn't saying you can't make or haven't made very good progress (on that note, nice back pic). I just want to make sure you're getting all you can out of the program. That includes aesthetics and strength, of course, but learning about training is just as important for keeping from being frustrated and not knowing what to do when you stall and the long-term pursuit of either of the aforementioned goals. And it looks like you're doing that based on how you evaluated how your disproportionate deadlift was affecting your fatigue level and tweaked the program to accommodate it.

I think the most important part is the Pineapple...because of its tartness. I used canned pineapple (with no sugar added just canned in its own juice...which i pour some of that in too)... whole slices... 2 rings usually.

haha, thanks.
Definetly, I agree with that. Another thing I like about focusing on the core lifts.. It's pointing out my previously unknown weak points (lower lumbar..spinal erectors)... probably contributed to my lower back probablems... they are much less now because the area is tight alot of the time now. "Working the body as a single unit" (Madcow) is very apparent... I can even feel the difference walking...strange but true... i feel more solid... 3 weeks in.

------------------
That freakin' back pic took my like 20 shots... sometimes i wasn't even in the picture, LOL... holdin' up my cam phone... and backwards at that ... came out decent... arms are up, so not much of a spread as I can with the lats.

sorry for being ignorant, but does aifm cause water retention? Why would you stop taking it?

No, it helps with NOT holding water... it's just a little experiment i'm doing to see how strength is without it.

We do need some estrogen in us... I think I have alot naturally, but we'll see what happens with my lifts and it'll be fun to see what happens with the weight too
