Working Out. Also: Stats. Get off your ass and join in!

Am I going to get "warned" or w/e for necroposting here? Well w/e, this topic is important.. I am willing to put myself in great jeopardy for this cause. FOR FREEDOM!

What are good calf workouts? My gym has the calf press. I'm not THAT big of a fan of it. I've been going on a horizontal leg press machine, but use it for calves by rolling onto the pads on my feet near the toes (not sure what part of the foot you should be pressing against the machine with) and flexing. It really annoys me how guys tend to neglect their calves, so that is why I seek beefy ones. I have to say, they're coming along pretty nicely. Still would appreciate more diversity in my exercises, though. I also just stand on one foot and do the same rolling action to flex the calves.

Also, how does one turn a 6 pack into an 8 pack? I thought it might be controversial to have an 8 pack. I'm not having much luck finding an answer using "Google".

I'm having a frustrating problem.

I've been working out on and off (mostly on) since November. I swear I was 160 lbs at one point. Then I dropped down to 150 lbs according to my own weight scale. At a friend's house yesterday, the scale had the audacity to say I was 146 lbs. What!?

I've been eating breakfast, lunch, snacks, and at least two dinners per night (usually all pretty healthy and protein-rich foods)... and working out 3 times a week for 2, 2.5 hours. But w/e, I look as buff as ever so I guess it doesn't really matter. Just kind of weird that my weight always yo-yos in ridiculous amounts.

I'm doing squats tonight actually. My weekend leg&shoulder workout is the one workout I don't look forward to just because working legs is so comprehensive and intense. But at the same time it's very important to me because it really bugs me how guys only focus on their upper bodies and end up with dinky little chicken legs and it's like "... well what's this?" Just looks silly.

I'm worried that I'm doing doing my squats as well as I could be. Should I be dipping my bum a bit below the horizontal plane (?) of my thighs? I think that works m'glutes better.

I'm wondering when someone is going to suggest we post progress pics. ;)
