For a while, my training had become so complacent and pointless.  I would go to the gym solely for the fact that it was just another part in my routine.  Now, however, i plan all of my activities around my training, sleeping, and eating.  I have also contacted Ronnie Rowland, of Aiken-South Carolina, for being my personal trainer.  He trained IFBB pro Tricky Jackson from amateur to pro with the Slingshot Training System(STS).  He has a book coming out shortly and all of his posts are on illpumpyouup.com.  And no, i am not advertising the STS for payment or favors of any sort.  I have seen all of the tremendous benefits that have come from all of Ronnie’s clients while under the program, and I myself am extremely eager to begin the program.  So i will keep everyone posted of my progress.
