In the Interest of being less Handicapped

Medications wish they were Vitamins. Vitamins wish they were food. Eat good clean food and be well.

Drinking a gallon of water is also good. On average, we are all about 78% water so flushing out any toxins in this manner is an affordable method.

For me, lifting weights has always been an activity I have gravitated toward. I could lift entire stacks on the Universal machines I saw in high school, College of Lake County and in the Military.

Olympic Weightlifting is the gold standard of lifting weights. The Snatch and the Clean & Jerk are very athletic and require a coach to learn.

Powerlifting is my personal favorite. Squat, Bench Press, and Deadlift require less training to master than Olympic lifting. Eat almost anything and lift large.

Bodybuilding is a great lifestyle except for the Fat Free/Cancer causing food in every single bodybuilding menu. Who doesn’t want to look good?

Just Weightlifting seems fine, but it also seems to lack a purpose. You have to start somewhere though.

Universal Genius Society (Current Goal)

This society is devoted to people who have achieved high scores on three kinds of IQ tests: spatial, numerical and verbal. IQ 140 (SD=15) on each part and IQ 150 on average is needed.

My test scores:

SPATIAL:

NUMERICAL: 148

VERBAL: 147

I need a high Spatial test or to get higher and higher scores on Numerical and Verbal tests.

Highest IQ Test Score So Far:

Wechsler 148 (SD=15)

Stanford-Binet 151 (SD=16)

Cattell 177 (SD=24)
