its crazy to me how my first thought was "he looks so much smaller" and then immediately I thought "damn he's jacked" lol
I don't understand how a dude can look so small compared to what I'm...
man todays lift was a good example of how motion creates motion.
6am I was chomping at the bit for today session, ready to go.
by the time I got there, feeling tired already, less motivated. but...

Probably can't still squat 500, but with a little dedicated strength training (largely to nail technique under near max loads) I'd feel confident that I could still handle mid-4s on the back squat.
The keto thing has been really easy the last 2 days. I thought it would be more difficult switching from carbs as long as it’s been since doing the cyclic keto last fall, but I’ve felt great...
Thanks fellas, got back late last night after a flight delay. But immigration/customs was a breeze and the trip was great!
Spent the entire time essentially at the pool (our kids are fish!), but...
That was my thinking, there will be zero gym access and I'm guessing limited walking where we are going but lots of swimming if I want to. Generally speaking I'm going to go under the assumption...
Oh yeah on the nutrition, that is actually very smart. Getting your body out of the famine mode before going will make it a lot less likely that you will store as much fat from your looser eating...
Yea, I think a lot of this is just being deconditioned far more than I think I have been in rememberable times. So a lot of this is just getting back to a more useable body right now. I am so...
You’re right. I don’t think I’ve done any real damage other than simply wasting time. But, from here forward, I don’t have any full day trips or forced poor-meals for an entire month, so 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...
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.
Considering you aren't wasting away like Jim, safe to assume a lot of this is more just conditioning that will bounce back ?
I'm actually switching my nutrition back up a little, more towards...
That’s awesome man….great workout. It’s great to see everything continuing to progress so well. It really is wild how good you feel after the “torture collar”. When you’ve hurt and been limited...
Another productive day in the books. Man strength is way down, hard to believe how much work a lot of this is now.
Most of these sessions are movement, and me just working on firing the muscles...
Had a great visit at the chiro, got a massive pop out of my thoracic right where it is tightest. Slight soreness from it this morning but it was freeing when it happened. Also had a lot more pops...
It's plate loaded is why lol. I had long since maxed out the Arsenal cable, and the Prime feels way better on the knees, but it does mean I have to lug a bunch of plates around.
