    IDK sounds like your new goal has been unlocked! I hear you on the touch and go. When I gave Cube a try after seeing Hyde's success on it I was doing a lot more pause work. My best bench raw is...

    This is the state bench record in the USA Powerlifting database. It’s 341.7 lbs . He also set the total record. I really couldn’t do the squat or deadlift, but that bench possibly looks reachable...

    I appreciate that Dustin….yeah any kind of curls or rows are still in my wheelhouse. Back 20 to 25 years ago I was a lot stronger and I won’t even tell you what I did on concentration curls back...

    Maybe its just me but again, this seems really impressive to me. Those barbell curls at 105+ are heavy weights and I know if fresh and surrounded by yoga pants I can do that, but never in my life...

    I’m the same way…I like her to use the grill, and she knows it, especially if it’s Bison burgers or steaks. Truthfully I usually only grill on the weekends, because I’m just too tired during the...

    Haha, now I love to grill or cue it up, but if my wife cooked on my stuff I would just be happy to be getting fed. :) I do know some men that would have a conniption fit. Like it would hurt their...

    Yeah 250 is most I’d consider, especially since you haven’t even taken it right now and aren’t really in a position to do so safely yet. So I’d say you have the right idea.

    Oh yeah, I probably figured my max a little lower than what it is, but I thought 275 for my max, so 90% is 247.5 which is what I’ll start my percentages with. It looked low, but like you said I...

    Friendly reminder that the training max in 5/3/1 should be set LOWER than you can actually max out at. It’s just a value to help generate weights, so when in doubt choose a lower TM. You can...

    Sounds like a fun plan, and i agree on the legs. I want them to be decent but I don't need them to be massive anymore. Just relatively strong, and capable.

    It is hard making that kind of cut. Even now 15lbs seems a struggle

    an extra 20lbs on my frame is an amazing improvement in structural integrity. its like going from a boosted 4 cylinder that redlines the tack at 9000 to a big block that redlines with more torque...

    Yeah, I think it just comes down to you not allowing yourself to get very fluffy at all. Once the belly isn't fitting as easily through the thighs it becomes a positioning issue.

    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.

    I thought the same thing. But it makes sense: “Here I am, in my shame & dissatisfaction” then, “I feel sexier AND it’s time for a diet break - LFG!!!”

    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.
