Hahaha yeah I hear that dude. I'm a hairy beast by nature so removal is just part of the regime right now, plus the wifey likes me smooth, it encourages her tongue to be on me.

Atleast you mane is under control, you don't look like a greasy frenchman like I do, it just hides the definition. But maybe I am gay for noticing?

Hmmmmmmmmm

Been working with Scooby for about a month now, and really happy to have his guidance. He has such a good handle on nutrition, and always seems to have the right move.

I feel like I generally have a very solid handle on nutrition, but I find it so hard to do my own. His eye and experience are really invaluable.

What is your overall goal since you started with Jason? Looking great brother. Working with a GURU for sure.

Haven't followed this thread(which is great btw!),do you use slin..mutant protocol works wonders..

no slin at this time. yes i def need more sleep, not enough hours in the day

**Taylor Normandeau** · 10-01-2011, 08:55 PM

^ BC your back is looking nasty, probably the most improved bodypart from your pics few months back.

I recommend if you're gonna do slin, get some bulk BCAA's, creatine, dextrose, and do Mutants protocol. I will send you the link if and when you decide.

I have to say I credit sleep big time in the fact I have changed my body so much in the last year. I am lucky enough to not have to wake up at any given time (to a degree) and just let my body wake up when it's ready. I usually sleep 10 hours a night sometimes 11 and wake up feeling amazing.

I know some people think that sleeping long is lazy, I honestly NEED to sleep atleast 8 hours. Not even for bodybuilding. I have friends who live off 6 hours no problem, sometimes 4. My mental well being and sanity starts to slip away from me if I undersleep, anxiety and the works. But I am fucking golden if I sleep enough. I never intentionally sleep super long just cause I don't want to get up, I just wake up when my body tells me too.

I also got a kid on the way so I know sleep will be a little harder to find for those first months, so I am abusing my freedom to sleep while I can!

UnfinBiz looking good man you are definitely fuller and leaner since we started.

BC the back is growing like a weed seriously

**juiceinator3000** · 10-01-2011, 11:53 PM

I <3 slin. But people who can make sick gains without it should avoid it at all costs. Shits dangerous as fuck if u don't actually monitor ur glucose levels

Thanks bro, short term, I want to put on LBM, really try to bring up my arms and shoulders.

Eventually I want to get back on stage, but I have a certain look I feel I want to accomplish before I do it, and I feel I have a ways to go to get that look.

Also, my life is so hectic right now with 3 young children, that I don't think I could handle a prep right now, offseason training and meal prep is hard enough!

Beast! Staying incredibly tight at that weight, look like you could cut for a month or so and do some real damage as a MW!
