damn your frekin huge!

it's crazy how the pics look.....when i look in the mirror i still see the 150lb guy looking back.....my (now ex)girlfriend kept telling me i really am that big....i just don't see it.....it's that disease we have bigorexia and muscle dysmorphia......i guess i'm blessed with small joints and able to pose good enough to look bigger than i am.....

what's your leg routine? I do a quad/hams split

here's my whole routine below at the link (note i'm only doing 1 working set per exercise!).....the only difference is that for november and december i did quads/calves on wednesday and hams/calves on saturday.....i'm back to a m/w/f split now....also i add intensity techniques and dc stretches to some of my sets and i change up the order of exercises and change exercises frequently (almost every time).....

You look awesome, irish. Great work there!

thanks for all the kind words everyone.....2009 was my year of drug recovery and 2010 is my year to move forward with the rest of my life......maybe i'll skip dieting for my show in may and just continue to get big shooting for 240 by the end of the year....
