Back awhile ago though, I was doing dumbbell press and my finger got caught in a 50 lb dumbbell, had to get my nail poked so the blood would flow out - it ended up spraying up like a geyser
it's all good though, because after that happened I decided to lift bigger weights
There are no principles, there are only events. There is no good and bad, there are only circumstances. The superior espouses events and circumstances in order to guide them.
took a deload week a couple of weeks ago and felt so weak coming back, i missed last week aside from the one day i hit a new PR on deadlifts and i come back stronger....... confused.

Was your deload week an actual deload week? That mean's low weight for every single exercise. Not just the compounds. Because if you were still going moderately heavy then that's not really giving your CNS a rest.

I guess it is time for one of these posts. Have been looking at some progress pics of myself today and decided to do a little comparison of what I looked like (from the back) in November 2012 and today, May 2013 (difference of about 7 months). I did not notice much change from the frontal view tbh, but I think I did make some progress judging from these pics... (picture on the left (before) - 270 lbs / picture on the right (after) - 274 lbs).
I hate taking pics of myself. I have always struggled with fat loss (ever since I stopped playing football that is), and I now got to the point where I just don't care about how I look, but I do want to share my journey thus far.

nice results! keep it up
but the left pic is 270lbs and the right is 274 lbs?
damn looks like you lost 20+ pounds!
you must've packed on a lot of muscle haha, keep it up!
Thanks man! I ran 5/3/1 twice, Smolov once, Sheiko 37 once and for the last month have been following Broz's Bulgarian style training. I think I put on some weight in my quads and back.
Here is another back shot (nothing special and I do not have a "before" comparison pic) but I think I did experienced some hypertrophy in my back.
In the past, I was one of those kids that "worked out" but NEVER gained any size because of improper diet/lack of compound lifts. But ever since college started, I've started to focus a lot on my diet, and play around with different routines. I'm tiny compared to all of you guys, currently sitting at 155..but eh, everyone needs to start somewhere right
edit: wow after looking at the pic, anyone got any pointers on how to make your wrists grow lol

How are you liking the Broz/Bulgarian method? I wish I had enough time to do that. =(

I hate it, lol! I do see a steady improvement in my bench. Squat numbers did not improve, but I am able to hit 415-425 every single day pretty much (i squat 5-6 times a week). I heard that this was supposed to happen for the first four weeks, but that improvement should follow shortly after. We'll see. I'm planning on doing this until July.
You are right though, it takes way too much time. I'm pretty lucky as my summer is pretty open, but come September, I will not be able to dedicate that much time to gym...
