Workin' on that Lou Ferrigno (70's TV Hulk) physique? You'll never fit into that purple Joker suit! LOL

If I'd known you were into that I could have sent you the Lou Ferrigno work out book - I just sold it a month ago at half price books for like a dollar. I had it not for the work out secrets but I was sculpting a Lou Ferrigno Hulk statue back when I bought it and wanted it to be as accurate as possible. Had the book for years w/o looking at it since. Damn! :(
 
Man, that is pretty intense. How long have you been working out? After several years of working out with minimal results I just accepted the fact that I am built like a green bean and embraced marathon running :)
 
Only sundays off huh? I try and take a day off just to recover and another one for cardio/abs only. Taking any supps?
 
Do you mind if I ask what your goals are? 20 is a high amount of reps, are you training for endurance, lose weight, just to stay fit? As Jayson16 said I'd be curious to see what supps you take as well! Ive spent the past 4 years working in gyms sales/management and its still interesting to me to hear about peoples goals.

Hi There. I dont take any supplements. Its very bad for the heart, liver, kidneys, etc..... I just eat Naturally. Around 6 small to meduim meals a day. Lots of meat and Vegetables for protein, Vitamins and Minerals.

I dont Smoke, always stay away from drugs, and I only drink socially.

My goals are to be as strong and as fit as I can be. I'm training for endurance and strength. I gotta be as fit as I can be before I go for USMC Boot camp. I'm gonna try my best to graduate with the highest honors.

And no, no supplements. I would feel like a fake if I did that. Just a very picky healthy diet. Trust me. I just did Thursdays workout last night. Hard to move today, LOL.

Besides, them Supplements are very expensive and are a waste of money in my opinion. Just go Natural.
 
Hey Nep101 check this out! It's 70s Canadian "Muscle Rock" band THOR! :D

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OlEGORSKXDE

I interviewed THOR on my 23rd birthday for my magazines second issue cover story when he did a renunion CD. He was a big time weight lifter as a kid. He used to do all kinds of crazy strongman tricks during concerts like bending steel bars around his neck or in his teeth, exploding hot water bottles with his lungs, etc. If you find it funny enough search the tube for Thor the rock God or Thor the Rock Warrior all kinds of wacky clips on there from the old days, even from the Merv Griffin show! LOL

My fave sporting events are those wild weight lifting competitions where they have to like flip over a truck or pull a train or something. I haven't seen one of those events in a long time, seems like they used to be on almost every weekend.

Haha, LOL. I never heard of THOR. I'll have to check more of his music out. You must be thinking of the worlds strongest man competitions. That one guy from poland seems to be the champ most of the time. Think his name is Mariusz Pudzianowski.
I like watching them trying to tow a bus and a plane, LOL
 
My Mom had the original THOR Keep the Dogs Away LP when I was a kid so it was cool interviewing a real "dinosaur of rock"!

I saw one of those strongest man events where they had to lift this rusty old cannon off an aircraft carrier deck so many times in a few seconds and one guy dropped it in his crotch... time to go home! LOL
