You mean your a modern day cowboy?

There is a really good documentary about black metal in Europe on Netflix...forgot the name though.

That leaves so many amazing options.....

@Wedge They really help build all the stabilizer muscles I bet.

Hell yeah

@reverend1 Absolutely... Brenda does really good work at her style. It is really soft and clean. She has a very graceful style.

@Graeme That's how it goes when you are this deep in it... I wouldn't trade any amount of other "toys" for a body full of beautiful work. It affects my relationship life too man. I have lost girlfriends and friends because of tattoo related shit. It sucks, but I will not compromise. It is the second most important thing in my life, next to breathing that is.

Also Mason Williams - Cincinnati, Ohio He works at PluraBella but not with Kore. They just have different spaces in the same building. He was Kore's apprentice and is extremely proficient at black and grey. Solid tattooer...

I have a piece of poop truck...so mine go all over my tailgate.

Some good looking stuff in here in the last few days. Awesome shit guys.

...when you have come to terms with the fact that you will always have a piece of shit car in order to save money for your body suit. (that is my true story)

@RoryQ I understand what you are saying. I can agree with you on that one. If you have an injury and you can do an alternate excersise that doesn't aggravate the injury in any way...then by all means you can continue to train. I have done so with mixed results. About 1.5 years ago I developed severe bursitis in my right shoulder. I trained through it for about 6 months and when the pain stayed I completely stopped all activity for almost 5 months. I mean absolutely nothing... When I came back, there was zero pain, zero loss of strength, and zero apprehention about doing shoulder intensive things. My shoulders have been fine since and I hope they stay that way.

@embers I hear ya...hopefully you come back with something sick...!

Follow State of Grace...you get tattooed cats and dogs.

...when you can name more tattooers than states.

Wait a mintue...you're going to SF and not going to State of Grace?

Buahahaha. I wouldn't know though... It can't be all that bad.

Aww shiiiiiiiit, dem thangs? Yu b crazy mofo!

Da fuq are Fat Gripz?

Calle at King Carlos

@Dan S Well said sir....

As you said, with any injury comes associated workout adjustments. But, when healthy, excersises that place more strain and stress on certain areas shouldn't be avoided because of a "potential" for injury. If everyone avoided excersise that were capable of injuring.....we would all be normal size dudes. And that, my friends, is NOT what I ever want to be.
