Great response so far guys.

Keep posting!

It's bedtime here right now. Then I've got my day job tomorrow. So it'll be 16 hrs or so before I can start sifting through these.

I'll be in touch and thank you for your help & enthusiasm.

Mark this is just the kick in the ass I need. Been training seriously for about a year now trying to get in shape for a trip to Indonesia and Australia. Bought your book and implimented most of the stuff in it, got down to 14% body fat and now into bulking.

This is a fascinating experiment. I wonder what you have up your sleeves. Every other part of my body seems to grow at will, but my arms are stubborn as a bull! So I'm anxious to see what you have. I'm no stranger to hard work as you can see, I've been training pretty regularly for a while and love a good burn. I've put a quarter in on my arms in a week, but never 1/2 or a full inch...that's crazy! Great marketing because I signed up for this. I advise people all the time on lifting, but I'm always looking to learn more from someone that knows more. I currently have fourteen inchers. I've uploaded a pic so you can see where I am. Can't wait to get started man!

Mark, I would love to be considered for this study/experiment. Fancy that you'd pick Turkey Day week.. guess there's hopes we'll all over-indulge some My name is Maria and I am a 22-year-old female who's been lifting, seriously, since March of 2008. I feel as though I'd be a great candidate for a few reasons:
1. I'm a female, and I'm noticing a male-dominated response
2. My ultimate goal is to have 14-inch arms.. they're currently just over 11.5
3. I'm 100% dedicated to any and every undertaking. I never bite off more than I can chew. I will be totally focused on executing your plan to a T
Either way, chosen or left behind, I'm SoOo incredibly psyched to see if this works

Well, my name is Mark, I am 29 years old and I weigh about 210 right now, I have been weight training for over ten years and just did my first show in August, i was at 173 for the show. I am currently doing your 10 week program, for the first time and I am in the 6th week. My arms have always had good definition and I would like to get some more size out of them. I am currently bulking up by your regimen as well, doing the high protein and high fat for most of the week with a so called cheat meal on the weekend for the insulin spike. I have been very happy so far with the progressive failure training, it is very rewarding to see the weight and reps go up every week, sometimes it jumps a little and thats really cool.
Thanks for the chance to do this...

Hey, Mark.

My name is Kevin. I'm 44 years old (last Friday), am 6'4" and weigh about 225#. I was fat most of my life (peaking at about 390). I've been working out for about a year and a half now. I followed your Total Anabolism program for about a year, working out 5 days a week. Because of the lack of progress in my arms, I recently started trying out a 5x5 program, which is only a 3 day a week program. But it's not made much of a difference.

I've made great progress in most areas, with the exception, like I said above, of my arms. They look good, but they just don't seem to want to grow. I do believe I'm training them to failure, but they're about 12" at rest, 13.5" flexed, and stuck that way (they were bigger, obviously, when I was heavier, but that was all fat).

I maintain a pretty strict high-protein, moderate fat, low carb diet.

I'd love to test out your new program. 1/2 in. in a week would certainly make me happy!

Kevin
