I write and maintain this fitness thread to keep me accountable, to get feedback, and to help others who may come along for the fitness ride. In particular, talking with General Stalin got me to start my own thread. You can find his here: thread-55629.html
Speaking of other forum members, I've directly talked fitness with several forum members and I'm glad for it. Shoutout in no particular order to: Cr33pin, MiscBrah, General Stalin, kaotic, and YoungBlade.

Those who have also read kaotic's thread may register that this is the A day from a program Steelex came up with for kaotic. Good eye if you did.
thread-60848...pid1495451
Figuring that I was relatively close to kaotic in stature, I went with the program.
Big props to both of those two-Steelex seems to be dropping fire in Weightlifting and Fitness.
I've lifted casually for 2-3 years and went from 130 lbs to where I am today. No longer do people call me a twig and apparently I have a little bit of size, which is news to me. Gaining size has been a fixation for me as a shorter guy (and will probably continue to be that way; just is) because you feel you can never get big enough.
That said, I want to focus on building strength now, which I take to mean more compound lifts, heavier weight, and lower reps. This is what you can expect from me in the upcoming workouts.
Size will come with strength too, right? That's what I heard from fellow manlet AlphaDestiny on YouTube anyways.
Lift and let lift, boys!
