Revised: I have a wife who is a genius in the kitchen, which is allowing me to reap the full benefit of a weightlifting regimen, by constantly flooding my system with a surplus of calories and nutrients!

Last night, we went out to eat, I had a bacon-chili-jalapeno-cheeseburger and multiple beers and fried everything, and I said "This doesn't conflict with my training regimen, as long as I'm training to be a turn-of-the-century strongman..."

You can't get really strong without carrying some fat.
