HISTORY
Trained as an upper body jockey for 10 years. Two years ago learned about STARTING STRENGTH and realized i was a beginner. I wasted 10 years. I used SS for 7 months. Tried MADCOW and burnt out quickly. Combination of starting to high of weight and recovering from fridays heavy triple to mondays top set of 5. My fault, but i'd like to see how i feel on TEXAS.
