    Building Back Up

    I honestly don't think about it a whole lot. I think about it enough to not pound energy drinks before bed, and I think about it in the same way that I think "I need to eat a salad" after three days of tater tots and onion rings, but otherwise I kinda just grab what I'm craving when I'm craving...

    Slicin' and Dicin'

    After breakfast, two coffees and a Gatorade I was 204 this morning @GreenMachineX so we are gonna intersect real fast [emoji1787]

    Slicin' and Dicin'

    I really appreciate the support, compliments encouragement! I think only other gym rats can understand it when you've really put it all out there. This morning I woke up feeling like I PRd deadlifts, that's for sure. It was supposed to rain today and I was gonna live it up with movies and couch...

    Slicin' and Dicin'

    That one has my heart all twisted up in knots still. What a weird thing to be so hung up on, "reps" but I walked in feeling like garbage. Ended up going 5lbs heavier than programmed, and when I got into the heat of the moment I know without a shadow of doubt I put everything I had on the...

    I'm 99.9% sure that 405 x 6 was a 2015 PR. So that's an 11 year old accomplishment I just beat. It doesn't mean my 1rm is bigger or that I'm stronger than the guy next to me, but breaking my own feat of strength from more than a decade ago as I approach my 44th birthday hits me hard. That's a...

    Deads 5 x 175, 215 3 x 255 5 x 315 3 x 365 7 x 405 (lifetime PR) Notes I've had 405 x 6 in my head for 10+ years as a reps PR. Rep 1 was a f'ing 1RM kinda grind. Rep 2 was suddenly easy. All the sudden it was rep 4 and I thought you really gonna stop at 5??? As I'm standing, thinking...

    Building Back Up

    I think Layne posted a study that showed that caffiene intake had a direct impact on strength training. Mark Bell (I know you're not a fan, but...) said something about how you can't take a preWO, wait 30 minutes, then lift that car off the baby.. which I get. and I like when I'm strong...

    are we talking about like a ban on caffiene for a while? that sounds horrible 😂 😂 pretty sure they linked caffiene to lower mortality. coffee at least. its like fried foods, alcohol, calories, or anything else in general. if you think you've had a bit too much, cut back...

    Building Back Up

    its not real consistent but maybe on the top end. coffee = 100 coffee = 100 redbull = 80 preWO = 150-200 I think but sometimes I have one of these alanis my wife found at costco which are pretty OK and they have 200mg I think.

    Building Back Up

    usually a coffee at 5am, another around 7am then maybe a sugar free monster/redbull in the afternoon. preWO on heavy days, none on deloads. thats about it. half that on weekends.

    Building Back Up

    I'm in a race against a relentless ghost that doesn't exist to a finishline that never arrives in a league of one where the division changes based upon life's circumstances du jour. I'm not sure its entirely possible to be ahead of anyone given the scenario 😂

    New smut log😮

    food looks awesome dude thats a great feeling though. its easy to get mentally exhausted before you are able to physically exhaust yourself like that, IMO I always feel so much healthier when I crash because of physical exhaustion. and probably sleep 10x better too.

    GP’s Old Man With A Plan Log

    your back days always look strong, I know that machine and I know how hard that 330lbs is in reality. it might be a machine but thats legit work. Love having the boy cook too, thats an important skill for him! I started doing that with my boy when he was younger too "I'm hungry" well ok...

    how did that deload bench feel for you? those look dope!! I like the ankle support of my flats but these are super tempting.

    I’m just not that strong (yet)!

    210/215/220 are just pain in the butt numbers anyways, its not good gym math 😂 too bad all progressions aren't like 135/185/225/275/315/365/405 etc lol
