    Haha, this reminds me of when I used to work at mc. donalds when I was 15
    a fat girl came in and ordered:

    "Ummmm, Hi I'll have a double big mac combo with super size fries and a coke. (She holds her breath) No wait, make that a diet coke. (she was satisfied) Thanks."

    don't get cute mate. the calories I saved by the diet coke was enough for two extra slices of pizza! =)

    26 Jun 2014 - Rare Macro Bullseye! (Still around 210 lbs)

    Comment at the gym yesterday.

    A younger guy, maybe 30(?) was saying something to me and all I heard was "fountain of youth". So I said "I'm sorry, but "What"?

    He said did I find the fountain of youth?

    (Here we go, a kid wanting to ask about steroids)

    I just said, look mate, I've been doing this since I was 12, and now I'm 52. So I've been doing this for a little while. Then I mentioned all the weight I've lost. He's been hanging at the gym for a little over a year now. Told him about Afghanistan and I was down 50 lbs, so this is the lightest I've been in 20 years. So he comments he's gained over 20 pounds or so in the last year. (I think he was proud of this fact?) So I ask him was there a corresponding gain in BF%? Huh? How much of that was fat? Oh, quite a bit actually.

    Well, mate, therein lies the rub, isn't it? How to gain weight, without the fat? (I feel the steroid question coming, so I try to steer away from it). HIs eyes kinda glassed over like a dead fish when I started on the importance of nutrition, blah blah blah....

    ....fvck, why do I bother?

    Anyways, a great day in the gym:
    Bench – three sets at failure repping at 15/10/5
    Pushups – slow to failure at 15 (visualize a board strapped to your ankles/waist/shoulders for perfect linearity)
    Flys – verticle - three sets at failure repping at 15/10/5
    Flys – front lifts, two sets to failure at 12/8 reps
    Straight Bar Pull down (Tris) - three sets at failure repping at 15/10/5 –
    Rope pull downs, 2 sets to failure at 12/8 - at the bottom (and before) of the contraction, pull the rope handles apart and hold for a few seconds
    Military Press – seated - three sets at failure repping at 15/10/5
    Military press – seated at a 45% - two sets to failure at 12/8
    Shrugs – Dumbell - three sets at failure repping at 15/10/5
    Shrug machine (not sure what to call it) - two sets repping to failure at 12/8
    Reverse Curls – barbell – two sets to failure at 15/10 reps

    and the eating:
