Decided to stay in the city for the weekend, I want to relax and I'm going to NJ next week for family anyway.
Holy sh*t how much better my lifts have been the last two days!!!! Better sleep, better mentality, glycogen stores although small have helped my workouts become much more explosive and I dont get so drained. Ive been having a hard time lately getting myself to go and I think those overnight shifts really messed me up.
Still keeping to 150g carbs - I want to keep them on the low end through the weekend and see how I react. Gonna make assessments on Monday and from there decide how much to shift. I'm easily putting 10-20% more weight on each exercise and hitting higher reps with better explosiveness.
Overhead machine press was tiring at 110 last week but I blasted through 140 without fail.
Upped a plate for shrugs.
Back up to the 70 for barbell raise.
Hit front and rear delts like a boss - with energy to rip through alternating non-stop machine preacher curls 4 sets of 25.
Not done... standing DB curls went up from 20-25 with higher reps... Could I pull off 30's next time? Maybe my strength exists higher than I thought. Either way I feel confident that, even with a diet around 2100, I'm still going to reach the necessary workout intesity I need to succeed.
HIIT after a oatmeal/coconut oil meal works out in my favor.
Side note: has anyone ever felt a little dizzy or woozy using a thyroid stimulant supp? I think its me just replenishing electrolyte imbalance from hard keto diet but just wondering.
