I think it would be tough to do a meet and not get sucked into switching your focus over towards it, mentally. Seems like it would pull you in when it got close.
No f’n way am I going down to 180lbs at 5’10” lol. That’s over 25kg I’d have to give up & I think I’d have to diet hard for a year. Hopefully I could be that lean low 200s (if I was going to try...
Post-WO relaxed
Legs coming along pretty well
Cut seems like it was pretty successful. Not quite as lean as I'd have liked, but (1) wasn't diligent enough about it the past month and (2)...
Pull this morning. Ran a little long because one of the PLers in there (just starting to compete and train, so pretty new) was asking for advice on his lifts and I don't know how to turn off coach...
Yeah, looking forward to the chance to unplug from the PC for a couple of weeks. We're going to road trip through most of England and see bits of Scotland and Wales, so will be lots of time...
lol I never thought about it but yeah it is a huge difference. If I work bb rows up to say like 185-205 I'm probably not going to 135 on t-bar. I usually cap it around 90 for sets to failure.
Yeah, not only does it remove a lot of momentum, but also with the weight being on the long arm out in front of you the leverage is so bad it is effectively heavier.
Standing OHP 4 x 5/5/5/6 x 140
NG Pull-ups 4/4/3/3
CG Bench 4 x 5 x 175
T-Bar Row 5x90, 2 x 3 x 135
DB Upright Row 3 x 10 x 35’s
Strength goes up quite a bit with all these calories 😂
T-Bar row...
Well, can’t reel it in too tight actually. Can’t be too far in a deficit otherwise I won’t enjoy the death metal concert this week. Maintenance kcal then.
Spot on. It’s never all or nothing, and past mistakes never define our future - in fact, they can often teach us to better pursue what we really desire!
Yeah, I gotcha. I do most of those things when stuck eating out, for the most part. I am reeling it in this week for sure to minimize damage from the back to back bad weekends.
Hey man, traveling cam be hard on the diet, but just remember that there are still things you can control. And even if you messed up this weekend, you have the ability to reign it in this week...
Weight: 207.6
Yesterday’s highlights:
Trap Bar DL 5x5/5/5/5/3 x 305
Leg Curls
Cable Shrugs
Skullcrushers
DB Curls
I’m pulling back on the trap bar DL to ensure I’m doing a more quad focused...
Yikes, what kind of contraception requires monkey bars? You got people swinging from condoms instead of resistance bands over there? Some fat guy in the corner "I think I am gonna need the Magnums...
I'm actually sorta surprised, if a bunch of us can see your focus, thoughtfulness, and passion for what you do and they don't, then it sorta seems like maybe they would not be a good fit for you...
I was under the impression oral testosterone was ineffective. Curious how well this works. Not for me, but perhaps replacing my wife's pellets. The trough she goes through every few months is just...
Mesocycle 5, Week 1, Day 1 - 3 RIR, Chest/Back Dominant
Really had to do a lot of warming up for my back today. Also woke up late as mentioned, so really only got to do chest. But that was the...
Long post incoming! TLDR: Body feels effed up. Started oral TRT.
First, the bad. Get that out of the way. Yesterday ended up getting a little pickleball play in as part of a work event. That was...
Been having a bit of a rough go of it lately when it comes to workouts and such.
Just been feeling "off" again. A bit of that malaise and lethargy physically / mentally. Plus with the left arm...
Again, I try to remind myself when I can that while my career is high stress, more time away from home than I'd like, etc. - to enjoy the perks (like that view!) and things I get to experience and...
Yesterday I did a 20 mins Peloton bike ride, 4.79 mi, 131 cals - followed by 12:50 min, 0.59 mi walk for another 95 cals - outside on the riverfront pier just in front of our hotel. Great view...
