Directed Variation Note: This is written for beginners not so much for you super bad asses, so if it doesn’t apply let it fly. But hopefully everyone can find a little gem to takeaway. Training, to be maximally successful, needs to be planned and analyzed. Going to the gym and doing what...

Injury and Injury prevention So recently the big question came up… “Kyle, why are you always injured?” Well… Let’s set the record straight. My first, and only, injury is the two bicep tears. Once training resumed I unfortunately strained my left pec within a month, but not a serious injury...

***Thoughts on Gyms, Culture, and Training*** The Gym… Sometimes it’s a confusing place. Is it that area you can let your inner demons out and unleash; Is it the “Compound,” and the “training ground” or is it a place where you have to be all prim and proper. Not too loud, not too aggressive...

Why are Bodybuilders bigger than Powerlifters? This question seems to keep coming up (IronMag, T-Nation, and of course my news feed) and it always seem to annoy me. The biggest problem with people’s perception of BB vs PL is the damn pictures this nonsense starts off with. Seriously people stop...

A few people have asked why I don’t do IIFYM dieting. Afterall, I am new to dieting and it’s everywhere you turn, some sexy woman is eating a cupcake being like IIFYM! So why aren’t I on the IIFYM bus ? IIFYM rests on the premise that all calories are fairly equal and that you can obtain pretty...

Received my finaflex active amino today, this will be an honest review as possible. With my BCAA dosing in accordance with my diet plan this sample will only last ten days. First notes: I wish we knew exactly what was in the product, what the amino acid matrix comprised of. I do like the...

Here is a rough diet outline of what I am currently doing. I am already down 10lbs or so. Weighed myself at 207lbs this morning.

12/7/14 was the longest meet i have ever done, 14 hour day. Sorry for incontinent video angles. Let's start with the lifts squat: I opened with a 20lbs PR at 470. A weight that crushed me last competition. Moved easy. Went to 500lbs. In the opinion of most the judges buried me, way too deep...
