Hey guys,

So tossing the idea around about going forward with this. Want to see what the interest looks like. Obviously I would have original designs up before any commitment.

Please answer the following:

Would you be interested in Swole Source T-shirts?
What colors would you want?
How many would you order (Trying to get a rough estimate)?
What size are you?

Do you like basic shirts (SS logo, maybe address), bold shirts (Something like "SHUT THE FUCK UP AND TRAIN"), or graphic tee style shirts (more than just a logo)?

definitely in. Black, Red, normal T's and tanks to work out in :) Like basic and bold. I wear large or "extra" medium as i like to put it, depending on the fit.

on the bold, cool as it is, i'd keep the profanity off it, so i can possibly do photo shoots in it lol

'SWOLESOURCE' bold red across the front as seems everyone likes
anyone of the quotes mentioned across the upper back would be cool if feasible, burly's were good, and ryan's too

the 50/50 blend fabric wise ill assume is doable?

Oh well, it's sounded good to me earlier.

I think there is a point in using the .com as without it, there is no obvious internet connection and it could be referring to a product.

I am still working on source, want to find a good price so they won't be too expensive. Definitely going for 50/50 though, don't worry about that.

Looking good.

When you have some source prices let me know if you want me to do some comparison shopping here. I'd be surprised if the cost wasn't much cheaper - much more than enough to make up for the (only) marginally greater shipping costs

The ones that throw out the "only because of AAS" are simply jealous. They're not hard to find and it takes much, much more than just a few cc's of oil to really kick ass in the gym. I hear the same thing when it comes to PL gear. My hearing isn't that good anymore, but I still hear something along the lines of, "it's only because of the gear," at least once per week.

I say fuck 'em. They're always the guys that do the same shit over and over and never make any progress.

like rodja said, those are the people who never progress cause they put so much stock into what they think you are doing, and very little in what they actually do

as for the eating in particular, iv been meaning to start a thread, just swamped, however as of jan 3rd im not a vegetarian any longer, and the effects of meat after a 6yr absence is VERY anabolic........thus dietary manipulation is always the key (not saying go off meat for 6yrs)......and now i am quite interested to see what would happen if i cycled eating this way, i hadnt used a prewo back then (honey sandwich prewo) let alone anabolics
