    I'm proud of myself for the first time in a long time...

    After the end of my workout today, I threw in some bench since I was just jumping around after 1 day off and day before that was cardio. Anyway I did 135lbs-12 reps warm-up, went to 225-12 reps, went to 315lbs for 10 reps which is pretty good for me, so I threw on 2 25lbs for 365lb max and did it twice. This may seem trival to some but 5 yrs down for a car accident, and still recovering and back in high school tore my peck and shoulder on 350, so im pretty proud of myself.. Im shootin for 400lb club haha, i usually do spurts and this is my first in the last 6months.

    Anyway thanks to the advice on here and everything alot of you have said, I think I may finally bounce back.

    car accident info if you didnt know it about me. 6 staples in the back of the head, 2 weeks hospital with whip lash as well, 2 herniated disks and digenertative disc syndrome now too (since I gained weight after the accident and would allow my back to heal properly)and im 33.

    That would be nice..... I just learned of these benefits a few months ago and have been researching it so see what I wanted to do. My doctors of course never just came out and said "HEY try HGH, it works wonders" hell most doctors seem like they want to stay away from ALL steroids and hormone replacements.
