thanks everyone

about me: turn 28 in January.
5'7" 150 soaking wet. BUT I want to stay at the weight for competition purposes.
was very much into bodybuilding back in high school and early 2000s. Now i lift only to help with my sport (Jiu-Jitsu)

I'm very much a newbie in THIS world. i'd say started this month! but i've been researching hard and have buddies that have many years of experience.

hope to ask the good questions and not be bashed to hard....
peace
