in HS I took BFS, the weight training coach, who was also a wrestling coach as well came over to me and told me that I should take up bbing. I asked why, and he said that I was very disciplined, and that I wasn't trying to impress anybody by lifting weights that I couldn't handle---I use the weight that I could.
One time in college, during the summer I was working in the Mall, and I saw him, he asked me if I was still working out, this was about 5 yrs after the class and he remembered...I asked hm about working calves and working forearms. He told me about using pails of sand, or baseball with nails.
In college there was a bber that I became friends with, his name was Troy Brown, dude, was nicknamed "Beast" like from X-Men, because he was super smart. He managed to take 26 credits a semester, workout, and was a stripper and do martial arts.
We were friends and would talk alot about bbing...
