Hi Bill,

Thanks for the detailed info; very informative. Sorry to hear about
your VIOXX problem; hope your feeling better!

It looks like you have been using this EF equipment for almost a year
now, excluding the time you spent in the ER room. How where you, or
are your numbers body wise since? Did you gain muscle size? Did you
reduce body fat reduction? If so, how long between your EF workouts
are you resting to see these changes?

Thanks in advance,
Rule1red
