I agree you look way bigger than 172!!!!! Nice job bro!
How's Metroflex? 
Thanks dude! And Metroflex was AWESOME. I got there around 10pm and dudes were STILL doing walking lunges in the parking lot. And the girl Renee at the desk was super cool and let me work out for free when I told her I was on the road. The gym itself is pretty crazy and kind of cramped, but awesome. There were maybe 10 of us there at that hour, and about half of them were just visiting from out of state (I geeked out and was taking pics and talking to people).
And as for blocking out my face, its just my personal preference. I've come into issues with my likeness being on stuff or manipulated so I just don't bother with it. Also, my job is kind of in the public sphere but not BB related at all, so better safe than sorry.
