Also wondering if more direct core work maybe even front squats to help strengthen up the core? Just a thought and figure you probably have more insight -
Cardio session, 25:10 on the bike, 133 cals. Fueled it with some BCAA+ energy, 1 pump of Napalm Xtreme, and 2 pumps of L-carnitine gel on the quads.

If you can’t handle an extra set of 45x10 on RDLs here and there, you are really not in a place of basal capacity to be training deadlift yet. I am not telling you to pile on more things if they...
-
Another thought, consider the RDL for the BBB sets, and perhaps lower the reps a bit to avoid fatigue. Should overall be safer than full ROM deads for that, and allows you to build lower intensity...
-
Are you sure it is the squats and deadlifts causing the issue and not the amount of lower back work you have been doing with clearing the branches from the yard? I agree with this, if an empty...
-
well there's like a million things that cause back pain, and within the glutes and hammies, another million potential culprits, but what I'm talking about absolutely should not have an impact on...
-
Yeah, so I was doing RDLs and empty BB sets during my hypertrophy mesos, but tbh I don't want to do any extra lower back work outside of actual DLs if I can avoid it, as between that and squats my...
-
are you doing RDL's? if it were me, I'd be doing an empty barbell progressiver ROM RDL, even down to touch the ground, during warm-ups (I do that now) and I'd swap out the seated leg extensions...

Yesterday only got in a quick 20 mins of cardio on the bike. But finally finished up chopping and getting rid of the fallen tree branches in the yard. So more active work in the AM. Today's...

Naps rule! do you find its harder to actually nap with ADHD? I basically stopped napping when I met my wife (LOL) now days it seems like when I want to sit down to rest like that, I've developed... -

I was considering trying to knock out my pull session yesterday since I have PT tonight, but I was so exhausted when I got home. I ended up taking a nap, waking up for dinner and then going to lay...

Had a decent training session yesterday, opted for a top to bottom push session. WU + 20 minutes General movement, Quadruped Complex, TRX Complex Swiss Bar Floor Press - 4 sets + 2RP on last...

New low of 225.6lbs upon waking. Very glad I added that cheat meal last Thursday to help stabilize weight. In retrospect, it makes sense that a diet I set up to lose weight would, in fact, do...

Awesome man, hope you have an amazing meet!

Wife and I decided we should shave my torso & arms for the meet. It was a good call, can definitely see more definition overall. My stepdaughter remarked that it’s wild how much leaner it made my...

You got this bro!! STRONG!!!!

That will be really cool…PRs on all lifts.💪🏆
-
Yeah for squat it’s basically make weight and show up to chip it!
-
It has to be pretty cool knowing you can PR at this weight by doing something you can do for a few reps already. Very excited for you.
-
Very cool updates!

clearly not your first rodeo. when I first pictured that I was like oh crap man, if your pex was to burst how would you ever find it without busting open your PVC, but then I realized your long...

Also first duck eggs! Sourdough toast- ground chicken- duck eggs

We have solar that runs the lower well for stock tanks. This is the main well up at the house. Not at this time looking to switch over (electric here is really not that much). I should...

if you rigged up a good battery bank/solar you'd be fully off grid then?

It is definitely possible as long as the deficit is modest & you train hard. I’m not surprised at all you didn’t lose strength dropping LGD. It makes you stronger from making you actually more...
