Okay gotcha. Yeah I can see the logic in that, however I have never once pulled out of a meet - it is a point of pride to make a showing, regardless of what I lift. That being said, I also really...
I meant pushing this one due to knowing it is going to be limited by the injury, taking the hit, backing off the orals, rescheduling for the next one that fits in a good timeframe for the goal...
You mean try to make 198 for this meet? Or another one, sooner rather than later?
Doing this one at 198 would be pointless even if I could make the weighin - I’m a full 30lbs up from that, so the...
I had my tight pec worked on last night and it is bruised up and sore. Diet was on point, and did my 1 hour walk at lunch.
Also we reviewed my most recent x-rays where we focused on the...
That looks like a solid plan to me, and yeah, I think you can definitely hit both of those goals if you make that your focus. If you make it your focus to do while leaner, it just might take a...
You guys think the same thing on deadlifts too, then?
I was looking at what my programming is like if I shift my TM from 412 to 430 and it changes my top set this week to 5-10 reps at 365 vs 5-12...
Yes, I thought your upper body lifts were a little too close to your maxes, specifically bench.
What @Hyde says about bumping 20 on the next cycle makes sense to me.
This is where building...
When you up your TM this go around, instead of adding 10lbs to squat, add 20. Should be a good noticeable bump forward that also doesn’t pull the rug out from under you. Then you can always double...
man thats true. the biggest thing for me was her stress level, thats sorta why I brought that up in greenmachine's log. I haven't been stay home from work sick in 10 years, but I feel like my wife...
I'm starting to wonder if the answer could be somewhere in the middle. you pointed out earlier that maybe my upperbody lifts were too close to real maxes, or maybe your point was that I was sorta...
I'm wondering if I should test my squat 1RM to adjust numbers. Been doing some research and my app currently shows (for TM's):
squat 307.5
deadlift 412.5
bench 295.5
OHP 181.5
more research on...
Man, if you had near 15, do it... That is what the AMRAP is for. Nothing builds like a Widow Maker set of 20 on squats. It is the big hypertrophy push of Dogg Crap training that pushes the volume...

Notes
Pulled the cord at 10 reps.. I need to do more learning cause 15 seems silly. I likely had...
With what I know you value, it is no surprise to me that home life has improved. Not only does her not working save money in the obvious reasons, but you will find many other quality of life...
Thanks fellas. A little ego boost from the gym homies is always a good thing.
I do feel that pumped, post-WO and flexed (particularly most muscular) shows off my physique in the best way...
I don't remember the details but I think (I could be wrong so forgive me if I'm totally off base) that it was a little bit of a scam thing... like purdue with oxy. my understanding was that...
I think for your average woman focusing on fitness, they probably aren't too bad, but some of these people have just gone to such extremes like in this instance. If anyone saw Kelly look like this...
Very glad to hear things have been able to stay above water these several weeks. Not perfect, but this should be negligible lipid skewing and more or less allow complete muscle retention with...
Nice session, I like OHP after bench as well. I feel I can hit the front delts better due to fatigue in the chest and triceps without pushing the risk of going too heavy overhead annoying my...
