Over the last couple years Silk and I have been forced to minimize our social media footprint so unfortunately we made a quick departure. I was badly injured in a car accident and my employers lawyers were looking for anything they could find to deny my pension. After my appearance didn't hold water they eventually found a surgeon that said my "disablity" wasn't from my car accident that forced me to have two cervical fusions.... but from an undiagnosed heriditary condition... ya... fucking ridiculous. Undiagnosed for 35 years and then when I'm hurt ... well look what we found...
Well one year later Silk and I were in another accident in which she was badly hurt...
So lawyers and private investigators and all that...
Silk hasn't been to the gym in almost a year and I've had severe limitations, but I'm starting to get better.
In summary our private lives are now private again and we are getting started again. We plan on doing a detailed log with Silk and ALOT of MC IGF. I'm also going to do a log, but I've managed to stay in decent shape. I'm 230 at 5'9 and very lean. I don't know a number, but I'll post up a pic and you guys can judge.
I see a whole new crew around here so I'm looking forward to meeting you guys.

Damn brutha, i remember the beginning of all that mess you had going on, but you just disapeared like overnight lmao, i thought you were abducted by aliens lol

Very good to see you back brutha, and silk too! Look forward to seeing how you held up in those photos, im sure your still solid man! That much muscle doesnt disapear overnight lol,

Tell silk I said hello, and i did see her browsing here a few times way way back, but never posted lol, hope you two are healed up and good to see you 2 are still together and going strong
 
You wouldn't believe the stuff they tried. They even tried trumping up charges of improper use of government computers or something like that and tried to arrest me! Yeah it's been a fun few years. But I'm very excited to get back on to the community and making good progress. Silk has gone through a lot and is very excited to get back in shape. They actually fired me January 1st as my time ran out at the desk position and they denied my pension. So I have been trying to get into your former line of work. I got my 6 20 license and have been working on getting Xactimate certifications. I've probably spent $1,000 in the last 2 months so that hopefully I'm qualified for a position

I remember seeing a lot of you when I first joined this forum and actually wondered what happened to you. Glad to have you back!
 
I appreciate it guys. I'll see if Silk can get a couple quick pics so I can get a baseline.
 
welcome back. seen your posts about igf. Do you inject IM or SQ and if IM do you split bi laterally ?

I personally love it IM and I always did it bilaterally. I know alot of guys prefer Subq though for a more systemic effect. You really can't go wrong either way.
 
Glad your back. I remember all that shit you went through. Glad all is well and all the opps are healed up now. Was a nightmare if I remember rightly.
 
Training and the gym has taken a big backseat for a long while, but we're finally in a spot to get back into it. We're both going to start some logs here shortly. I'm pretty happy with the shape I've been able to maintain, but I think I've got some room for some real improvements after nearly 3 years of going through the motions.
Thank you all for the kind words.
 
Hello my long lost MC family! Thanks for the warm welcome guys!! Like The Dude was saying, it's been a long year and then some. Life is slowly starting to change for the better thank God. I haven't stepped inside a gym in almost a year and my diet sucks... I'm so ready for a change. And though I'm still dealing with my injuries I'm getting back to the old me. MC's always kept me motivated in the past so here I am.
 
good to have you two back-I thought you were up north working on your land, not sure if you still have that or not

We still have the 11 acres in TN. We planned on moving up there when I got my pension... then the sudden discovery of my "genetic condition" bullshit that the pension board used to deny my pension and now we can't afford to move up there right now. We haven't even visited in well over a year. Hopefully we'll get up there this year with our new German Shepherd puppy.
 
Welcome back to both of you. It sucks what you have been through. Good luck to your future! The one constant in my life has always been the Iron but sometimes it was me who couldn't find it. Anyways great to have you back!
