I mean I think you should feel relatively confident you can get it. Maybe something like 75% or so. I don't think you should be breaking the bank trying a rep you feel you won't get just to grind... -
thinking deeper, even if it was a failed rep, I would have at least tried for 4 yesterday if I had snagged a spotter.

Well it comes back to something i was going to mention when you asked me the other day regarding the CNS stuff, but then I lost it in another browser. That is that if you are doing an AMRAP, and...

dapack replied to the thread Hyde’s Strength Odyssey.Conrad on a huge meet!!! All the time and hard work Def paid off!!! Dropping down to 90kgs would be crazy with your size.

Monday I didn’t have much appetite & waited to eat for a while, but did decide to eat eventually - I ate the things I had really wanted to during the reload that I couldn’t (because of social/time...
-
My idea is not so dissimilar, just cutting out the maintenance phase. Focus on getting some weight off now so I have less to trim later and can eat more closer to comp. Unfortunately for my...

the only downfall to going at 198 is that we'd all miss you around here. https://anabolicminds.com/community/threads/200lbs-the-holy-grail-for-gym-bros-why.335321/post-6909942

Think if you can spend a month or two at maintenance and just settle into the mid-220s, then you could hit another deficit until you're in that 205-210 range. Ideally, you'd get there before...

I appreciate that, and am glad I got to share this journey with you! I definitely have gotten a lot more comments lately about being jacked, no doubt.

Congrats on an awesome performance and man you look like a brick shithouse filled back out while that lean. I was picturing your old physique back early on the boards to now... Just unreal...
-
Thank you! And same to everyone for all the kind words and support. Glad you brought up the halo: I think 30mg worked a lot better for me than 20mg to help put me in the right zone. Gave me that...

First off congrats on a great weekend to both of you. Sounds like a near perfect weekend for both of you minus a single bench. You should be incredibly proud of that squat and the mental component...

83lbs to do 1,642 @220. Which sounds like a lot, but imagine training at maintenance now and actually just not getting injured to even string together several months of good work. It could have...
-
Hell yeah, man. How far does that put you off the ultimate goal of an elite total if you shoot for it at 220? Any chance you think you could reasonably take the weight down to 205-210 over the...

Man, what an accomplishment! That is f-ing awesome! Meet PR’s, DOT PR is just absolutely amazing. Great work on your prep and great work on taking the chance you did on your last squat. That...

Wow man! Amazing meet for you and the wife! What an awesome story and gets me pumped up!! Congrats

Man I knew you were going to blast some new PRs, and not only did you obliterate your previous PRs you get Best Lifter and one of your most complete meets ever. And I love hearing about your...
-
I think if you compiled your lifting career up until now with training, injuries, successes and struggles, you could write a really great book. That was pure joy to read man, honestly phenomenal...
-
Someone made a really cool video of all my lifts from this meet edited together, but they put my name on it & it’s public on YT, so I don’t want to post that publicly - PM me if any of you guys...
-
Alright, on to the meet! As posted, I won Best Untested Male Lifter, so you all know it went great already 🏆🔥✊ Woke up Saturday weighing 220.2lbs at 6am: Went to the strongman show to handle...

Man that is so awesome…you guys are a family of Champions. You’re wife is so impressive…first she takes second in the event a couple weeks ago and then to turn around and put in this first place...

I think dips are also one of those movements where you can really make the mind > muscle connection and sorta determine what it is you are trying to hit with a concerted effort. I know when I'm... -

Yeah, when it comes to dips I love them, I can get a full stretch on pecs including around the clavicle. Same for front delts and triceps. Plus for me it is a great power movement that I can dig...

Amazon prices can be hard to beat. I always found MyProtein to be one of the cheapest places to buy a good quality protein powder. I don't use the powders much these days, so not sure that is...

@manifesto it is hit and miss with what is in stock but if you aren't afraid of protein close to or a little beyond it's Best By date then I would try Supplementhunt.com. I often grab stuff from...

You know there’s like 10,000 guys your age who would give anything to be able to do dips again, right? That blew my mind a little bit that it’s no issue with your collarbone thing right now. Very...
