thanks man, yes my friend has wieghts at the house and i am also going to get a 24 hour fitness membership this month. so i will be in the gym soon. i used to have a wieght trainer when i was in high school and i played division 1 basketball, but i still seemed to only get cut and elastic muscle, not size. i am open to all the help necessary. i have been reading up on anabolics for a few weeks now.
