A Little About Me

All Natural Bodybuilding.
Comp Sci major @ University of Pittsburgh [might switch to Engineering]
Im 22 now.
Started my bodybuilding career in Mar of '06. Had a cumulative of about 13 months of "injuries and leaves of absences from gym due to medication i was taking". So i know what its like to be miserable because you can't go to the gym :-p.
I'm into computers big time. Everything from building them, to programming, to making websites and networking .
Got my associates in Web Programming/Information Systems at a local community college. [CCBC].

A few good quotes...
"Don't compare yourself to others, this is about you vs yourself."
"Obsession is a term the lazy use to describe the dedicated."
"Go big, or go home."

When I Started Working Out

March 2006 [ minus 13 months of injuries/setbacks]

How I Started

To lose weight and get in shape.

Why I Love It

Requires you to push your mental and physical limits simultaneously. Look good, feel great.

How I Stay Motivated

Doing stuff right makes me see bigger, better, and faster gains.

My Worst Injury

New: Wrist bone decay... [currently still decaying]. I was out for 4 months.
Broken left hand. [still lifted, only 10% chance of ruining bone regrowth, lifted with it, was fine.]
Was out for 9 months due to some medications I was taking... [Was no point in lifting when I had severely restricted diet and could not take any supplements]

I Would Love To Meet

Dorian Yates
Anyone with an amazing outlook on life.

Why?

Stevers's picture
Posted May 27th, 2008 by Stevers

Why do I bodybuild? Why do I put myself through this everday, and why is it seemingly one of my highest priorities?

Well after a lot of deep thinking that I wont get into here, my final answer was ironically very simple.

Because it is hands down, of all the very difficult things in my life i've ever attempted, it is the most rewarding!

An intense workout is very difficult mentally and physically, and thats just one workout. Creating a consistent routine only furthers the challenge it puts against you.

yeh man , i think A is better and i think i will have a rest day on thurs ,because i've looked at a lot of training splits for loads of different bodybuilders and hardly any of them train 5 days in a row , so yeh thanks so much for the advice , and am just gona keep comin with the questions by the way cause this is the first time i've ever spoke to another bodybuilder lol , one more thing man = do you think doing 3 sets of each excercise is better than doing 4 or 5 sets , because does doing 5 sets of each excercise not seem like something you would do on steriods , i think natural bbuilding you should do 3 or 4 sets but no more ?? what do you think , for example do you think a chest workout should be =incline dum press 5 sets / flat bench press 5 sets / decline dum press 5 sets / incline dum flye 5 sets , or is that to much probably 3 or 4 sets ??? cheers man ;)

thanks for the advice , i really apreciate it , and thanks for the welcome , just wondering if you know much about how to develop biceps and triceps because i have a decent size chest (42inch) but my arms are an embarrassing 14 inch , and extremely under developed and i train them less than 10 sets each , so i am definately not over training them , i train them once a week , but i thought maybe start doing more super sets and giant sets would help and maybe training them 2 times a week , on a monday and on a friday , so they are getting enough rest ? please help me out x thanks

Thanks for the support man. One of my biggest down falls is inpatience and its already starting to kick in with this work out thing. But like you said, I have already changed my body and just have to stay on track to be healthier and not compare myself to others. (A little hard) I'm on track and staying motivated. I just started taking protein with glutamine and bcaas. I've added Cyclo Tren to this instead of creatine. Do you think it would be bad to combine the two, Creatine and Cyclo Tren?
