at least it was +10lbs and not -10lbs 😂
after all these years the three things I struggle with the most in the gym is 15lb plates, 35lb plates, and 55lb anything.
Man I know….you wouldn’t think that unexpected 10 lbs would have done something, but yeah I guess my back noticed and was trying to let me know. But it is crazy, we lift all this weight and for...

Appreciate it guys…. I was happy to get it done unscathed. I have had a few injuries since injuring that shoulder, so it feels good to hit that 230 and the shoulders still feel good. As soon as...
Yeah I agree with Kleen….it definitely looks like you lost more than 2% bodyfat, and your abs are starting to show a little. Great job, and I hope you guys have a blast.
totally agree. I don't put any weight (haha, punny) into the extra stats I get from my renpho, but I do still look at them as a goal or target to try to beat/manipulate for fun.
solid...
Agree on the readings not being "real". I use them as a reference though for trends. I think I might do a DEXA at some point just for fun to see how off it really is. @Jimbabwe 's log made me want...

As long as "strength loss" is mostly due to changes in leverage and not actual muscle tissue loss things should be good, and set you up for a serious rebound. :)
The prospect of losing 25lbs is intimidating! I know I can do it, but what it will do to my strength I’m not sure. I know I can get it back regardless eventually though, so I’ll need to remember...
too bad we don't know exact lean mass then vs now from like a dexa etc. I would suspect 220 is going to be larger this time, you've had lots of time to build since then. I mean I'm considerably...
I think so. After Easter’s high squat volume (with low %) the strained area was a bit sore the next day, but now a week later and doing almost no volume it does not seem to be. So absolute load...
Some good training going on in here. hate to hear about the elbow, but we already know this is a constant battle for you, and one you will persevere through.
I for one am definitely interested...
Well I wouldn’t necessarily get on TRT unless you really want to be, if that makes sense. I mean, if you stop coming off and recovering your natural production, you will likely destroy it within a...
Will be doing the same post-vacation (sometime in June, probably) to prep for a cycle. If my T is low (it had dropped a ton since my last test when I did my annuals in Feb this year, but a lot of...

losing size is such a mind F. I think I'm on my 4th or 5th cut in the last 4 years of cycling up and down and this is the first time that I feel pretty good in the smaller version of me. I would...
