Mash/dice/chop your animal protein to consume slightly larger portions easier. Tilapia, chicken breast, ground beef or turkey and tuna all can be minced up and stirred into carbs or veggies to... -
That is definitely a good bench session! Definitely gaining momentum and your strength I would guess in the following blocks will really benefit.

Week 2 weigh ins vs last week. Weight: 158.7# (-0.7#) BF: 23.3% (+0.1%) Well, guess I still need to up the cals since weight went in the wrong direction this past week. However, on the...

Great session….you’re progressing well, and looks like your strength is steadily going up. Yeah Spotos if you’ve never done them before or if it’s been awhile just take a little practice to get...

Well, legs - particularly my hammies - are still pretty sore even waking up this AM (4 days later!). So kept on with my bench, squat, deads sequence this week. Bench - 3/5/1 FSL Week 2 Warm up...

Don’t sweat the accessories - that deadlift workout will do more for you than a LOT of things. Volume deadlift work builds so much of the body thicker and stronger so efficiently. High cost, but...

This, if just resetting your hips and locking the back down again is what you and he mean, If you mean stand back up and then bend back down and re-grip, yeah that's more like rest pauses or...

I always felt like in the lifting sports people love to help people who are smaller/not as strong, its a fun way to share what you've learned and earned with someone else, and when they meet...

My wife and I keep Imodium in our workout bags. Nothing like the green apple splatters ruining a deadlift or squat day!

It’s a lot easier to clean up 😝

While pissing on the platform is an accepted practice, crapping is not...

Like Kleen said, you just want to get that done further out. We have had issues with giving my wife milk of magnesia too late, with her last cup of water before shutting fluid off. Then it doesn’t...

He runs it earlier in the week so it has run it course before the meet. That could make for a messy day on the platform otherwise. LOL! How the meet go? It was a 3 brown light performance...
-
Do you ever run into problems running a laxative ahead of a meet? Last thing I would want coming in is having the runs, particularly on a big squat!
-
Man that is a awesome session those squats are killer and then the stiff leg deads after 🤘🏻
-
Yes, I definitely want to continue to lose more absolute weight as I can. Not sure how realistic much more will be as gear has been introduced, but hoping several more lbs will come off at least...
-
Do you plan one just letting the weight continue to drop the way your are leading up to water cut time so you don’t have to rely on losing so much water weight? I know you can lose 15 pounds on a...
-
I was 215.0 Saturday morning before carbing back up. Which is ~11lbs lighter than when I began the watercut fo the last meet where I squat 600. About half a weightclass down in the 10 weeks since!
-
Killing it! Knowing you have 600 at your current weight is awesome!!!!
-
Great session and great squats….looks like you’re dialing it in to peak just right.🏆

Exactly! I pictured a bunch of **** talking and things like that, but that’s not what I’ve experienced at all. Just a bunch of support.

Exactly, people don’t want to win because you got hurt or made a mistake - they want to beat you at your best! And we’re all there to lift heavy - everyone there knows about getting up early, or...

1000% correct! I was so shocked when I did my first PL meet at how supportive everyone is, even the ones you’re competing against. Just a great community all around. The only regret I have is not...

Man the community is so welcoming. Just search for a powerlifting gym on your next travel, or plan a weekend day for a trip to a PL gym, introduce yourself to someone who looks like they know what...

Man, I don't know if I am impressed or disgusted with that! Putting your open mouth on a machines pad in a gym. Just Hell NO! At the same time, you go girl!!! Let's be honest, she just wanted to...

I strongly recommend taking L-lysine daily for immune benefits. I started taking it years ago to combat canker sores. Since then, I not only have not had canker sores I've hardly had a cold. In...

I don't understand this. I have probably missed a meal only the number of times I can count on one hand. It's like clockwork, it's 12-12:30 it's lunch time, if 3-4 PM, afternoon snack. But...
