And this is going to come as a big disappointment, but I haven't had pizza in 4 weeks now. I know, I know. Shameful.

I had pizza two hours ago. Then again, I'm fat.

Yeah this is getting scary. Before you know it, we're going to have Cohen here telling us about all the hot high school chicks he is banging. And by hot high school chicks, what I really mean is dudes.

I am still disappointed in myself from my last showing. If only i hadn't eaten that buffet 4 hours before we went out for pizza!!!

Um, no. That was taken a year ago. My knee is a little bitch that needs a shot or 7 of IGF-1.

I PM'd you a conference you should come to. Eric posted a thread on it in the training section: Syracuse Strength Spectacular. You can read about in there.

Ahh, you're pulling my trick now. Post old pics when you looked great. LOL

If I had stuck to "anything above 8-reps is only cardio", I wouldn't have found out that the rep range for strength (and growth) for my legs is above 10-reps. And I've been training for over 20-years and have used just about every rep range known to man (and woman).

It's called knowing your body. But it also shows you that more volume for a woman doesn't neccessitate 15-20 reps with five pound weights.

'hypertrophy for a woman' is no different than 'hypertrophy for a man' IMO.

But how a woman obtains hypertrophy is different in many cases.

I see Thundah has answered some of these and I'll just get back to my beer...and homework.

Were you in a sad state? Depressed? Lost your mind for a moment? What the hell was going on with you?

Was having a 90 Minute IPA.

Well, okay. Just be aware there are possible longterm effects; not immediately noticeable.....

Heh, I'm sure the powers that be of this board love the fact that a topic on weight training in the Fitness section has been hijacked by a discussion on beer.

But I must get back to drawing some really poorly built male figure models for my anatomy course.
