Just wanted to say hello to my fellow over 35’ers - I’m currently 42. USMC 84-93, Wife, two daughters. Work out from 5 to 6 AM, 4 days a week. IT professional, Corporate Troubleshooter. Looking to get stronger, more powerful, and lose the fat around my middle. Working out solo, so no spotter. Mix each week, free weights, cables, machines.
The user name is my new motto - What Would Conan Do in Long Island, New York?
You’ve come to the right place. Welcome aboard.
WELCOME!
If some guy from Utah asks if you’re doing “5/3/1”, just reply “Yes” and there won’t be any trouble (probably).

It’s okay, though. You, at least, get to pick your own flavor of Kool-aid.
Harry, did you just ask him if he was a …nah!? Surely not…
Oops, does read that way, Skip. How’s this, “based on your avatar’s depiction of the Scots motto for the surname Johnson, and several others, I inquired if that may in fact be your last name”. See, I cans talk all pretty.

You DO have to do 5/3/1 or you will be driven from the tribe.
Welcome to the fold.
OK - South Shore, actually more central - Deer Park, to be exact.
Johnston, of the Johnstone ilk. My Tartan is more blue green than yours.
Been lurking for a while, and it’s nice to see some familiar avatars. Thanks for all the kind words.

Oh and cross-dressers who throw really heavy shit for bling.
Welcome.
