[kingc_79]

hi everyone, my name is chad, im 25 and im an alcoholic. jk. just feels kinda like an a.a meeting.

Im from caruthersville, mo. I was in the marine corps for 5 yrs and now im in school in cape girardeau tryin to finish a degree in industrial engineering and i just got a job waitin tables for xtra cash at logans roadhouse. I've enjoyed lifting since the marine corps. Last year i had the pleasure of meeting clint darden and got me into strongman from which i did 2 contests last year. I had a surgery (kidney transplant) earlier this year and im just now gettin back to training bc i got lazy afterwards and lost motivation for a while. Other than strongman(anything that requires me to push my body further than i think is possible) and reading these boards, i like anything outdoors ie: swimming, riding atv's, hunting, football. i also like to drink, party, hang out with friends and travel (and the occasional relaxation blunt ). Until recently moving to school i had 2 dogs (american pit bull terriers) which are the best dogs ever and hopefully will one day have a house full of em..lol

King-awesome with the strongman shit! What kind of bullies did you have? Color/Build? One of my close friends has a kennel here in CA. He was previously co-owner of cutthroat kennels and then broke off, but they've got some great bloodlines from Razor's Edge and Gotti. When they get their new site up I'll post it.

thanks man...and one of my dogs was 95lb rednose that was white w/chocholate patches and a big puppy had some bolio in him but not sure of the others....my other dog was a 45lb brindle female. i kinda adopted her from someone that didnt take care of her. she was a game bred dog(not what i usually like) but she was the best do i've ever had and she was a addicted to the springpole like it was crack. she could look out the window and see it and her back end would start twitchin. thats awesome bout ur buddy...i'd like to see some pics when ya get em...bc i've already decided that when i do get another dog it will probably be razors edge. i really love the bodytype of those dogs and the ones i've seen have great temperments also.

Wow...that's fuckin awesome! That is definitely something my wife and I would like to do (climb the Mayan temples). Can't wait till we're rich and money is no object, so we can travel often. You and your friends look to be in pretty good shape in those pictures. Good stuff. Welcome and hope you stay active on this site.

I love this site. All this information at my fingertips and platinum powers.

I just signed-up for platinum today after spending a couple of weeks on the boards as a non-plat user. Love the information and love the networking -- i'm impressed!

I'm 37, 3 kids. Live in the Northwest Chicago suburbs. Hobbies include lifting and computing (both applications and games, mostly online stuff).

Just finishing my first HRT cycle (legal one) and about to do a more aggressive (but legal) cycle starting Jan 2. I'm 6' 2.5" and 237 with around 10% BF. Would loooove to break my unexplicable bench barrier of 345 -- been stuck there for years and year. Hoping this next cycle (my first "real" cycle) will do it!

Thanks,

mrplunkey

Better late than never, and needless to say.. at the back of the bus, and by the looks of it I finally get to ride the long bus and get off the short bus.

24, living in Atlanta, originally from Fort Worth, Texas...'born and raised' as the cliche goes. Went to Auburn for 6 yrs., met my fiance there, who I have been with for 3 and a half years and the wedding is in April. And I am with Raina on the fact that I can't wait to escape from Reality for just a little bit, the gym and some random books by Wilbur Smith are what I like to dive into to escape. I work in Atlanta for a major insurance broker, on the wholesale side of the company for those that know the difference.

I am absolutely loving life right now, eat,sleep, play soccer/golf on weekends along with watching college and pro football. Just got hooked on Fantasy Football, its addicting, but it wears off as the season goes on (and you realize that you aren't winning for the playoffs, lol).



Raina, my fiance's home office is in St.Paul... I haven't been up there yet, but she goes quite frequent and she tells me how cold it gets in the winter, but she enjoys the town.

Thats all I can spill for now.

Hey,48yrs old and feel every bit of it. Been lifting for over 30yrs none stop
my joints are wore out, from knees ,to shoulders I am really paying for all the years of lifting, the heavy weights wore my joints out, I am ate up with athritis, for all the young lifters out there maxing out all the time will take a toll on your joints when you get older (BE SMART) don't pay like I am.
Anyway my kids 13yrs girl, 14yrs girl, 17yrs girl, and 18yr old boy.
I love my family more than anything.
This board has been great, I sure appreciate all the good info from everyone.
Like I said I have been around gyms for over 35yrs and I still have learned
alot from all you guys, young and old. I am currently on HRT androgel and HGH.
THANK YOU,

Welcome (to this intro thread anyway) mikeyboy604, mrplunkey, barnes3, and trim dad! trim dad, thanks for those words of wisdom....on a side note, Wow...4 kids so close together?! Your wife must've been thrilled being pregnant for 2 years at a time with only a 2 year break in between! I don't think I could survive....my wife would kill me.
