I have also looked into that. It seems like it would work. You'd be buff from all that elbow grease. lol.

Looking forward to seeing how it works out. I hear the results can be very good if you have the time and patients. That's not me.

Lack of funds = time and patients (in some cases. LOL). I would try it but I have some body work that needs to be done first.

Never heard of this, sounds crazy. Looking forward to your results. Be sure to use both arms so they both get buff. LOL
