Rocket is Losing It

Nothing worse than back issues! I've used a warming ointment called Tiger Balm (white formula) before starting a lifting session. It helps warm the muscles in preparation for lifts.

The pump was GREAT, I have been hitting the BCAA pretty hard and the DOMS is almost non-existent
 
Which BCAA are you using?

I am amazed at the endurance I have, I am sometime able to add rep as the sets go on rather than like usual and the reps keep dropping. I am using more weight for more reps than I have been, while I losing weight. I have been keeping my calories around or below 2000 and would think I would run out of steam but I just keep going. On that note I was hoping to be down about 12lbs by now and have only dropped 8lbs but I do believe I have lost body fat while building some muscle. Vascularity is up, strength is up and pants are getting looser, so I may not be totally happy with what the scale says, the mirror is in my favor.

Your calories do fluctuate quite a. Lot, I've noticed this before.

Your still losing weight so that's great man! If I modify my calories at all I gain weight hahaha... Damn metabolism
 
Thank you Ladies!

grinnell27, I try not to let my calories stay the same to keep my system guessing, I'm not sure if it works or not??
 
Seems like it does! I do often actually have a cheat meal in the middle of the week... Not all the time but maybe once every 2-3 weeks and it works great. I still have my cheat meal on a weekend too though.
