  1. In the languages section you tick bilingual cause you know some Japanese (tebori), Mexican (santa muerte ),Maori (ta moko) and of course Spanish (Jondix ) .
  2. I really like the bold almost geometric style of Japanese tattoo the gent wears backed by a shit-load of black ,it's also similar to Nakamura Toshikazu seen in post 162 .
  3. Portrait taken at the Brooklyn Invitation Chopper show . Tattooer unknown . BROOKLYN INVITATIONAL PORTRAITS by James Stone
  4. This is a cool reflective Dave Tate piece - T NATION | Iron Evolution: Reflections Part 1
  5. The essence of GVT is beautiful simplicity I would suggest , particulary for a low volume person starting the programme , not getting too "cute " with the exercises and sticking with the most basic compounds movements possible - you'll be gratefull for any assistance from ancillary muscles you can get .
  6. Not a cobra but there's a pic in the State of Grace, Horiyoshi III Life and Work book of a young David Labrava from the 80's with a chest / torso snake from the man himself , Labrava may be more widely known as Happy on S.O.A .
  7. @Lochlan New member @edlondonphotography just uploaded a beautiful series of portraits from the convention to the gallery that perhaps we could link to here .
  8. Little Lango Oliveira at Skull & Sword is the only person that could tempt me .
  9. @Brock Varty I should clarify that I literally will myself not to get bigger and also to avoid the chagrin of my wife , and also I only implemented GVT on my legs , for most GVT is ideally a programme for increasing muscle mass . Take a look http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/luis13.htm
  10. @Brock Varty Having been also a strong subscriber to the Heavy Duty school of thought GVT was completely foreign to me . However as I was trying a more strength / power type approach I needed some way to allow my lower back full recovery from both heavy squats and deads in the same week and after lifting close on 25 years consider my joints and the possibility of injury whilst freshening up my CNS . Now I'm of the opinion that legs respond not to low numbers but high reps so naturally I would implement this programme on my leg day .Heres the kicker , after humble beginnings and six weeks of GVT I've made more strength gains in my 6 rep squat than on any conventional lifting programme i.e 5,3,1 ,linear periodization etc,etc .It not surprising that this is an off-season favourite of weightlifters worldwide and also my weight has stayed constant which for me is great cause I'm not after hypertrophy .
  11. Rory I think in part its the balance of Oxygen changing due to the deep heavy breathing and part psychological cause once you reach 7-8 sets the notion of doing 3 more seems like a cake walk !
  12. Whole thing looks perfect mate , placement in all .
  13. Regardless of the debate about said tattoo and unlike the above Mary Mary you made some real valid points .
  14. @kylegrey which green and pleasant land do you speak of, home or the pastures of the UK? @WeRnDoG good point I was referring to England as I believe Mr Burk guested at The Family Business .
  15. @hogg I haven't even done 4 sets of an exercise for as long as I can remember so after getting my ass handed to me by a warm-up weight first time around I was aware I had to change up my thinking .I returned humbled and with my wife in tow to ensure I was stringent about resting 90 seconds or less between sets and to at least hit the prescribed 10 x 10 regardless of weight . Weird thing is once you have a feel for this way of training you hit a second wind of sorts around sets 7 - 8 , which I found allowed me to each week increase my poundage to where I'm at now - 90 kg, so at least it kinda looks like I have a reason to be milling about the squat bar .
  16. @hogg C'mon man couldn't you one time just get a "good" tattoo , killed it as always .Bryan Burk is one of my favourites also , I understand he was a recent guest in our green and pleasant land .
  17. @MsRad That caused me to think of this - southsiders: Time Capsule
