First thing I want to say thanks to Macedog and Ironmaglabs for the opportunity to log this.

I tore a pec awhile back and my bench went to less that the bar. That's right, I couldn't bench the bar.
When could bench the bar, I started training one ten per side and eventually got to where I am now. I did 5X5 with 225 on the Cybex plate loaded bench last week.

I'm currently trying to get my bench back on the regular flat bench by doing pause reps. This should be interesting. I was going to compete at 181 so the goal is to get my weight back to that or lower. I'm currently about 192. Fat Pic coming soon 😜.
I will be doing a TKD/CKD. That's carbs pre and during workout and carbups on the weekends.

At 63 I'm in the 60-64 devision and was all over it before the injury. Will do bench tomorrow.

The torn pec shows a little. It was mutated worse.

Saturdays workout.
I only did the light pause bench and not the Cybex plate loaded because freeweights is the way to go with bench now. I'm just going to keep bumping it up and try to get back Close to where I was.
Start doing keto tomorrow so going hi carb today.

I ate about 50 grams of carbs yesterday.
For my cardio I did 6 miles on upright bike, one mile of walking and 3 miles on recumbent bike.
Today I add roughly 56 grams of mostly malto/dextrose to peri-workout phase.
Let's face it, ketones are crappy fuel for lifting. I'm usually back in a couples hours after workout.
I take in 36 in my pre-workout and drink 12 oz gatorade while lifting.

I walked a mile and then did 45 minutes of recombinant bike today. Didn't wanna go too hard on these legs and this seems to have helped.

I did chest/tris Saturday. I will be doing that again tomorrow. Friday will be back/bis. Been doing chest every 5 days but it will probably be every Tues from now on.

I said that I did tris/bis yesterday. It was obviously chest/ tries. I did back/bis today.
I added just a one tab of arginine akg to my pre-workout and pumps were off the charts. Almost took a pic because the vascularity was so crazy.

True but I'll never get the 22 inch guns back anyway. Keto does protect you from muscle loss tho.
I’m in!

What was the heaviest weight you’ve ever been? What did you weigh when you measured 22”?

I hit 240 back in the day. I would diet down to like 200 and 195. I'm not sure what weight I was at when they measured 22 but probably bulking.

I dropped squats in the rack and tried doing all feet forward squats. It might have been a mistake because a had a bad time in my 5th set. Don't think I really got an injury but I left the last rep on the safety pins. We'll see tomorrow.

I did an hour on recumbent bike at home today. Should help with the leg soreness.
I should take the time to say that the Lean AF absorbs great. There's no heavy alcohol smell or anything bad. It absorbs well enough to put clothes on shorty after applying.


If you wonder what I was worried about after yesterday's workout, I had two broken hips in the wreck I was in in 2008. When I hit the bottom on the failed rep I had some pretty sharp pain in the hips. I finished the workout tho and seem ok today. They are sore today. We'll see when I train tomorrow.

I did an hour cardio walk yesterday. It was about 4 miles. Not doing anything to remove fat but Dream n Grow at night.

I use some kratom postworkout on lifting days so that's probably another GH pulse.

Hard to know exactly but I was down 5 lbs a few days ago. This has been a nice cut. Keep working on the 5X5 with 225 on the bench.

I deloaded a bit on squats but that's fine on a cut. Past injuries messing with me some. This is a pretty dry stack and that's to be expected. Only added a little 4-dhea and it doesn't aromatize much.

Still have a bit of belly but muscles feel dense and hard. Going to be easy to hit 180.

Loving the Lean AF Brandon!! Haha
