I wish on both counts, sir.

I guess it comes down to what you want to do with your lifting. Like my friend said, " You wanna look like you can bench 600 pounds or actually bench 600 pounds". Granted, like I said before some guys can accomplish both, usually through an insane amount of AAS. I think myself I am at a crossroads with my lifting. Yea it's nice to toss around crazy weight. But when I walk around, I just look like a big bloated short guy with no neck.

honestly, Frank, actually being able to throw around the weight is what's more important to me. I think, though, that some of what I'm carrying around is impeding me a little bit. I don't want (and honestly don't think I could attain with my genetics) an Ambercrombie body ... and I know that I'm going to gain weight, which doesn't actually bother me all that much when I'm having good results. I'd rather have a Mark Bell body.
at the end of the day, I'm much happier with how I look and feel now than when I started this journey less than two years ago. I guess I just wish I was stronger at my current weight.
