Re: Arm Development
Deadlifts, nothing will give you a bigger overall back. That should be your #1 exercise along with squats. High reps and/or sets of chin ups are also excellent for working your back. You can vary them with wide/close grip and vary the actual grip as well to mix it up. For biceps the various one and ...

Re: Dehydrator / Jerky

Dehydrator / Jerky
Seeing as I consume a large quantity of jerky, due to a variety of reasons, I'm looking into picking up a dehydrator to start making my own and cut down on costs and all the preservatives etc in store bought stuff.

Paladins with 4pc S3 + 4pc T6 for 5% HL crit and 5% FoL healing? Check. ShS rogues will benefit as well ...
