The key to getting big is not going to Grad school. I started Chiro College at 200lbs with a 315 bench, 300 close grip bench, 500 squat, and 18 1/4 in arms. Now I'm 160lbs and on a good day I can get 275 bench and I'm pretty sure I don't have a squat anymore. I do feel much lighter and quicker when I play sports which isn't bad since thats about all I do anymore. But for anyone wanting to get big there's only 2 things you need to know: Diet and consistency getting in the gym.
