    Funny if I want to find source material for a tattoo the last thing I would look at is some bullshit flash web site. Most of the stuff is drawn on the computer and isn't even tattooable, not to mention the designs are horrible. I usually find non tattoo related reference if I am looking to get a tattoo drawn for me. If I want a particular bird or flower tattooed on me, I would find a book that has some good illustrations or photographs of them, or maybe just run the idea by the tattooer see if they already have the necessary reference material or even need it.
    Paying for a tattoo design on the internet is about as stupid as paying for porn on the internet.

    @Brock Varty I like front squats 10x10 to keep form also not GVT but love 2 minute leg press sets @225(~150-200 reps) after single leg rear foot elevated squats(usually 5x5).

    I started building my next six weeks of schedule and am working in GVT on legs every other week. If you go heavy enough on legs, high volume can be hell, I have thrown up once or twice doing 30+ rep sets of squats. As long as you can maintain your form, high reps is good sometimes.
    Does anyone have a particular GVT set-up they like for legs?

    Some of the best Japanese style tattooers in the world are in the States. I am positive you could get someone to compose a design very close to what you want.

    @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 .

    1. People bringing their kids to the shop. Nothing pisses me off more.
    2. People canceling the day of the appointment OR them "forgetting" they had an appointment. Thanks for the deposit and wasting my time.
    3. Asking how much "a rose" is or how much "some letters" are or a how much a "medium tattoo" costs. Fucker, how much is a new car or a bag of groceries? I don't know!
    4. Trying to get me to price match with other shops like Im Walmart.
    5. Parents that bring their kids in to get tattooed, even though they dont approve, and act shitty to me when I do the tattoo.
    6. When a client's friend is with them while getting tattooed and they tell their friend, "its almost done"... um... did i say it was? no... it isnt.
    7. Clients who talk with their hands or keep moving their head fast when Im tattooing them.
    8. Clients I dont know on a certain level that think Im their therapist.
    9. People who think I love L.A. Ink. and "have to get a tattoo from Kat Von D before they die".
    10. Clients that put their friend's opinion before their own.
    I was bitter towards people before becoming a tattooer from working retail... it only got worse. I could go on all day. Im really not an asshole.

    @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 .
