Bicep-13.25"
Thigh-21.5"

(I dont really care about the size of my biceps, forearms etc. but I just did it so I can track progress.

I play football and lacrosse. I followed the program for about 7 weeks last summer before the football season. My PR's on the program are:
Squat-225x3x5
Bench-175x3x5
Deadlift-235x5
OH Press-110x3x5
Power clean-150x1 (can't remember pr for the 5 sets)

Everything has been very light and easy so far.

As far as diet goes, I won't being doing the GOMAD until I get out of school on June 14th, as it would be very hard to drink a gallon of milk when i spend 7 hours a day in school. A sample day of eating for me would be:

Breakfast 6:50 AM
Bowl of oatmeal and protein shake.

Lunch 10:45 AM
The school lunches are nasty but I guess theyre good if youre bulking. They serve french fries, cheeseburgers, and chicken patties every day of the week. I will typically eat 1 cheeseburger, 1 chicken patty, 2 small cartons of milk, a serving of french fries, a fruit, and 2 pop-tart pastries(the snack of bulking champions).

After School Snack 3 PM
Turkey Sandwhich, cheese sticks, a fruit.

Dinner
This will vary. I'll just make sure to eat a lot and get a lot of protein in.

Keep it up young man, I wish I'd have known about SS, or something similar, when I was your age, my son is 12, so I think I'll get him started on SS soon.

Thanks for the encouragement grizzlybuck. I think it'd be a great idea to start your son on SS in a couple of years.
