X - i’m disappointed that you’re going h-town, shai, with the beard…i think 70’s militant panther, e.g. ?uestlove from the roots would be a better fit for you personality.
thinking of cutting mime back to an around the jaw into goatee stash thing, trimmed up a little but still non-conforming.
^Dude, the fact that you know anything about Shai or H-Town makes you cool to me.

A mullet isn’t a hair style. It’s a way of life. If you’ve got the Iroc-Z, and the trailer home to go with it, I say rock on.
Winter is comming, and my facial frost protection is on the way. Feel sorry for those with women who don’t like it. I just started growing it for the year, and the PRs are already rolling in, while the women in my life have nothing but good things to say about it. Apperently it makes them feel less like cradle robbers for the lulz.
X - i’m a cultured brother. i listen to twangy country sometimes, but that doesn’t mean years ago i didn’t see h-town, shai, jodeci, and SWV in concert. hehe haha.
college days, my then skinny ass was loving the ladies…spanish, black, white, no matter beautiful women are beautiful women. these guys @ that time, in those circustances, made the panties just slide right off 
i listen to that sometimes…now a days i’m more inclined to go w/ some marvin gaye though.
really it’s no different than you listening to some postal service or iron and wine is it? you have heard of them right? white guy brooding music. the pained artist stuff. elliot smith maybe?
the guy from staind has a great voice for country.

ID go to bed. crazy fool. i’m up late looking for things to pull it to. nothing to tug to in here…i’m out. home alone. AARRRggghhhhhhhhhhaaaa
NoWheyOut & SteelyD- here is the hypertrophy tactic i use on my big beard.
let me clarify i was a tiny beard when i began, always looking for gimmicks and ways to get the beard big quick. i’d do a million things, over think everything and not work hard enough. i’d see big beards in the magazines and think, how did they do it? genetics right?
Correcr!
if you have pubic hair facial hair, stringy sparce ass nasty shit growing on the face…well you’re fucked.
but…but…if it can grow, then it just takes calories, hard work, intensity, rest, and time. the beard grows while i sleep fellas not while i’m beard squatting. wait beard squat sounds gay.
anyway, keep at it fellas, it’s all about time and commitment to the cause, small goals, visualize the beard you want. shampoo and regular brushing seem to help too. that’s how/what I supplement with. kind of like FST7 Hany Rambod’s stuff, promote blood volume to the area, get blood flow to the face.
sometimes i just have the ol’ lady slap me a bunch. i say stupid shit to piss her off, like “the dishes aren’t going to clean themselves,” or i look down at my #1 guy and say, “it’s not going to suck itself.”
Bamn…SLAP…the growth happens, all part of the master plan.
i’m going to cut and paste this in my beard thread. i amuse myself sometimes.

I can’t deny it. Some people even suspects I may be the reincarnation of Pierre-Joseph Proudhon.
Tobacco these days. And quite rarely.
i’m at three months now. this is the longest i’ve ever let it grow. I’ve been cutting a good bit of bodyfat lately and i fear that my beard growth is the only thing keeping my strength levels up. my plan is a full year of awesome growth.
last year i had quite the beard, but these days im going for something a little more wolveriney.

Hell yeah rock it!
I shaved mine off a month ago, just to see what I looked like since I haven’t seen my face in quite a while. While everybody agreed I looked a lot younger they all thought I looked better with the beard, and I agreed so it’s back.
Will I shave it off again at some point? Probably, but for the foreseeable future I am bearded.
My wife used to hate beards now she hates me without it… Since she’s the one who has to take my dick, I figure I should make her happy

Maraudermeat - you’ve got that freaky strength DNA beard hair, you should pluck it by the root, pant it so it keeps growing, and then sell transplantable beard plants (hairs) to all of us mere mortals. good luck on the YEARBEARD, never done it. Currently based on my squeaky professionalism the one you see in the avatar is about as long as i rock it.
the previous beard, one in the pic was last year after about 4 months. I’d scare the fucking weights into lockout if i didn’t have the lift.
Maraudermeat - on a serious note, well slightly more serious note (perhaps the wrong forum to ask this in), I’d love to hear about your mental side of lifting something heavy. how you get there, prepared. I know that if we (collectively) aren’t strong enough we miss, but strong is physical and somewhat mental, if the mind owns it, w/in reason the body will make it happen.
I think of my dead relatives, make promises to my dead dog, dead dad, think crazy shit before a big lift… am I alone in that type of thinking???
crickets?
how do ya do it? don’t say BIG MAN deodorant either.

the last time i started growing mine i got this bright idea to trim it and fucked it all up…to the point that i couldn’t even keep a goatee. it was one of the darkest moments in my life. i immidiately started to grow it back and now all i trim is the mustache once i start chewing on it, i keep a straight cheekline and i trim around the neck. i leave all of the length.
it’s weird… no one ever comments on my beard. it’s like they are afraid it will jump out and rip their throats out if they say anything…people just stare at it. maybe it’s hypnotic.

luckily i have a job that can’t tell me what to wear or how to look. we have unions to protect us. i get plenty of unhappy looks but i don’t give a shit. i would rather be myself than to look like everyone else… besides i really hate to shave. it’s such a waste of time.
as for preparing for a big lift… i used to get myself all psyched up and march around…even yell… visualize myself killing my worst enemy… all that shit. things have changed though.
when i did all that crap i spent way too much time and energy before my lift. it would take me forever to perform the lift…especially on deadlifts. i would just stand there forever “preparing”. after awhile i realized that it was counterproductive to my goals. i was overthinking things. it’s really just a fucking weight…pretty silly actually. Now all i do is go up to the bar, clear my mind and do my thing. I realized that before when i was doing all that psyche up crap was because there was a part of me that was afraid i would miss the lift. then i started to think…so fucking what?? i miss a lift… it’s not like the world is now going to end becuase i missed my deadlift. looking back i missed a lot more times worrying about it and getting myself all worked up. now i dont’ give myself the chance to even think about it. i go right up to the bar and just do it before i have the chance to let thoughts creep into my head. i rely on my training to keep me confident to hit my lifts. i rarely EVER miss a lift now. it’s the fact that i’m not afriad to miss that keeps me from missing. if i do miss…i forget about it almost immidiately once i analyze what went wrong. but i keep it very unemotional. it’s supposed to be fun and theraputic.
