^^^true, true. reminds me of the gladwell-popularized fact that most NHL players are born in the first third of the year. the theory goes that kids born earlier in the year tend to be older for their grade or division than kids born later in the year. the 9 or 10 months can make a big difference when you're little, so early-birthday kids are overselected for competitive teams because they're just bigger and stronger and more coordinated than kids younger than they are. path dependency takes over and the relatively younger kids never make up the gap.

or so i comfort my november-born, always-one-of-the-youngest-kids-in-the-class self.

I'm going to make sure my kid gets held back in kindergarten

don't you train at Blenderate's gym? Or was it Tigerak's gym? If you go to latter you'll probably see Frank Yang at some point.

Hey LBSS,

I'm curious, you seemed to not like my routine. My goal for the rest of 2013 is to bulk, I'm 5'7.5" and 142lb, would want to hit 155lb possibly. Activity-wise, I'm in college, heavy workload, gonna be playing on an intramural flag football league (heavily competitive) and pickup basketball (for fun, decent competition). Ultimately, I want to just gain just pounds on pounds of muscle, and gain strength like never before lol - my upper body is not where it should be. Legs should be mostly all fast twitch focused, more on the reactive end... but I don't have time for plyometrics at all. How would you suggest building a routine for that goal (general splits/exercises to focus on/etc).

Thanks haha
