In 2011, it had rained all morning, which is great for Arizona, but bad for my elbow which inflames badly in high humidity. I hit 315 and 335 DL and on my 3rd attempt i went for broke and attempted 375. Missed it. My pull ups suck too...I got 3. Due to the elbow cramp, the 24kg snatch I got 65.

There is a Gold's Gym in CityScape, behind the Hotel Palomar.

Correct frequency varies with the individual, as does most anything else. My advice, for what it's worth, is to not be in a hurry. Don't dive straight in to the deep end, take time to get used to the water. Rushing back in will only get you hurt and thats not going to be any good for the long run.

I think you may have answered your own question, by including the word "challenge". Personally I do 3 on 1 off 2 on 1 off with varying load, intensity etc. Depending on you, it may not be necessary to take every other day off, but you also don't want to go all out, all day, every day.

Don't discount the "Grease The Groove" idea. Randomly throughout the day, drop and do one (or two) really good push up(s). That's how I improved my pull ups, and it's easy to accomplish.

The relationship with your high school girlfriend ends in 2 months anyway, and your parents will respect your decision. Take the opportunity to be stationed in Italy.

I don't generally post photos on here, but I can tell you. My son's birthday falls at or near Father's Day every year, and every year we take a photo sitting in the same chair. He's 11 this year, and it's looking like we may need a bigger chair! Always my favorite pic though.

Spend your scale money on a body fat caliper and measuring tape.

Hill sprints. Run up the hill as fast as you can, walk down, rinse, repeat. So many wrestlers run marathons for conditioning, but what good is that if you are rolling the mat with a guy who can break into a scramble every 20 seconds?

I have always used pencil and paper (spiral note pads). I have a drawer full of them dating back to workouts that I did in high school. Thirty plus years of data in one easy to find location.

Oak Creek Canyon, Mingus Mountain, Chevelon Canyon, and, of course, the North Rim campground at the Grand Canyon. All right here in Arizona.

No can do.....we are at that point in the week where it's "inside out and backwards" day.

The Jockey boxer briefs are almost always on sale at JCPenney (if you have one near you).

Lauren Brooks put together a program called "Strong Like A Mother". She has a lot of stuff on YouTube as well. Bonus: her sister is a club DJ, so her videos always have cool music.

I think it's a sad commentary on the business when there are trainers out there that won't nut up and tell a client that what they are comfortable teaching doesn't fit the client's goals and then possibly refer them to someone else. Holy run-on sentence, Batman!
