NUTRITION: Weighed 230 today! Don't want to get any heavier than this, because movement will suffer (I know from experience).

Getups do tend to pack muscle in places you need it to be more powerful, so maybe a little in the midsection and hips. I know most would shudder at gaining there, but that is where your power comes from! Bodybuilders like to have skinny waists, but martial artists know that is where all the striking and throwing power comes from...and it is all about that, not posing like some fruitcake, oiled up, in a pair of underwear, on a stage.
