Never said i was dead set on yanking it unless i had to. Im i huge fan of work smarter not harder...and untill very recently my doc limited me to 30lb lifting max. Ive been damn near bed ridden for 14 months. I lost over 40 lbs (mostly muscle) from being almost completely sedentary. I had surgury a few months ago to put me back to "normal"...so im building up...and trying to do all that crap i couldnt do for the previous year+. And im only 48.
You both have excellent ideas...and with me being someone who listens before forming my own opinion...between all that you both shared from your obviously deep carnal knowledge on the subject...i have a direction to follow.
