As I mentioned in a previous post, I may be a hard-gainer in disguise. Putting on muscle is a slow process and my tendancies in the past of doing more cardio than weights may have hindered any muscle gains I've tried to make. Working out only 3 times a week almost seems lazy to me now, but most of the info out there points to this frequency for maximal muscle gains. Before Christmas, when I increased my calorie intake, I was still working out at least 4-5 times a week and wasn't able to put on any weight.
Yes, I still believe in simply being strong for one's size and have no intentions of becoming a hulk, but I do think my frame will allow for a bit more muscle mass without sacrificing other aspects of my athleticism.
Basically, what I'm getting at is that today was a rest day for me. I sure needed it too! After two weeks of not being in the gym, I've got a large case of muscle soreness! Good to know I'm shocking my body and working it hard.
Anyway, apologies to all of you out there who thought I may have disappeared earlier, but as I stated yesterday, I'm back and on track, and on a new mission!
Get your game face on!
Cheers,
Raiden

Welcome back!! Glad to see you. I've heard rave reviews of your amazing push-up prowess. But, for some reason my connection isn't letting past 57 seconds, and it's been loading for quite a long time. So I'll be back for that. Glad to hear the game went well and you had a great holiday. Rest is GOOD. I fully support rest. :)
