It’s been a long-ass time since my last update, and most of you out there think that I have disappeared for good. This is not the case, as I still make sure this site is up and running for everyone to see. There’s not much for me to say to be honest, hence the lack of updates (“If you’ve got nothing to say, don’t say jack”). I still train three times a week and grow stronger by doing so. My lift records aren’t world-breaking, but they’re definitely my own personal bests. In any case, I felt I would rework the site a bit and clean it up by the end of this month if time permits. No promises, but I’ll do my best to organize everything to be much clearer.

It has been a while since my last update (way too long, actually) but that’s because there’s nothing new to report. However, it seems that the routine is more popular than ever, as people are starting to figure out that there’s no better way to train than full body exercises. I have a lot of planned articles and sections for this site, but I want to make sure that they’re all polished up before I actually go ahead and release them. In the mean time, keep training!

Hey everyone, I’m still here and alive. I have been training non-stop and enjoying every minute of it. I have now progressed into the Intermediate stage of strength training, as Rippetoe’s Starting Strength routine was no longer effective (I have been following it for over a year and a half mind you). The gains I have achieved with the beginner program were phenomenal, and I have been grateful for finding about the routine at the right time. I have been reading Practical Programming for Strength Training for a while now and it’s great stuff. I am learning way too much to list about it in this small post, so I encourage everyone to grab a copy and check it out for themselves instead of waiting for me to spill the beans. I recently found out that Mark Rippetoe released another book back in November, titled Strong Enough? Thoughts from Thirty Years of Barbell Training. I will be ordering it very soon alongside my fractional plates for micro-loading.

For those who are curious, I am following Bill Starr’s 5×5 program, featured on Madcow’s site.

Hello everyone, just letting you all know that I’m not dead yet. The site will be updated with more articles very soon (they’re drafts now waiting to be looked over). I have been training non-stop and noticed a few things about my workouts that I would like to share with you all within a few days. I might be moving onto the intermediate stage of Mark Rippetoe’s routine very soon (Practical Programming for Strength Training) but I would like to make sure that I have milked this program entirely before I move on. Stay tuned for updates!

I am starting up a few sections of the site in my spare time right now and so far it’s going good. A lot of the site’s planning is being done while I train at the gym and everyday I come up with a new idea to improve the site’s success. One thing I would like to implement on here is a QA (Questions/Answers) page where someone might have a question or two to pose, specific to the Starting Strength routine (e.g. “Do I have to rest one week every 8 to 10 weeks of training?”). A lot to do!
