Are we voting. If so after you exceed your own expectations at this meet I vote for a halotestin fueled run at 1600lbs at 198 😂 -
Some great advice here, I agree with Hyde that if you are okay with the first 4 things, then just do it for the fun, and motivation. It will be a good experience, and might be just what you need...

Yeah, I was going to say, if you are wanting to clean up, LISS would be the only form of cardio I would consider during a deload, and even then very laid back if not part of your normal work. Now...

Congrats man, it looks like you are set up for a good meet! -
You are going to like this one for sure.
-
Jim has talked about this and I know you know this in your heart as well: the deload is not time to make training harder in any way. Otherwise you don’t shed fatigue sufficiently to warrant the...

Glad you got to have the squats you were hoping for! And put a great bench behind it too; looking good for meet day.

gphagan1 replied to the thread GP’s Old Man With A Plan Log.This is the flat bench…. I want to see how this feels after doing 5/3/1 bench Monday. Just laying on it before leaving today, just to see how the handles felt, it seems like it should spare the...

gphagan1 replied to the thread GP’s Old Man With A Plan Log.Yeah I think the Hammer Strength plate loaded machines have become my favorite. Our gym now has the HS high row, shoulder press, dips, incline, decline, and the two newest are that mid row and...

The hammer strength stuff is what I miss most about going to a gym. Some of my home setup gives the same feel but that machine , the incline press and the military press in particular are my...

Do you want to change your training right now? Are you excited by the idea to train for strength the next 2.5 months? Would you be okay with a total well below your best ever numbers, since you...

Also, as of this week bumped Tren E from 40 to 50mg for the final 4 weeks. May not be much, but still a 25% increase - plus the addition of 40mg Tbol is objectively working. I realized all my...
-
Well, I’ve taken exactly 10mg Halo total in my entire life (added it Tuesday before maxing bench), so I don’t exactly know how I respond to it yet. BUT I can say 1600@198 would indeed be a great...

I love androsterone. Like epi andro but less nervous energy. A calm confidence I think it’s getting hard to source the raws though. I loved alpha gainz alpha andro (epiandro) . I want to say I...

gphagan1 replied to the thread Segansational's Motivation Log.I will definitely defer to Hyde on this, but considering you’ve been doing more bodybuilding style workouts for a while, with only 2 1/2 months to train for a PL meet, really isn’t enough time to...

gphagan1 replied to the thread Slicin' and Dicin'.I bet you’re all over 210 lbs for your OHP max. The food looks delicious, and it’s great hearing you guys are doing so good since she left her job. No doubt some things are just more important...

gphagan1 replied to the thread DaPack..Fighting Age One Day at a Time.That’s some great squats brother….405 x 2 is an impressive PR. Looks like you will be going into your meet in a good place ready for “Beastmode”.💪

that would be dope, I mean bro to bro, I'd rather see you at 255 than 275 for obvious reasons
-
The thought hasn’t escaped me. Honestly if I can hit 370-375 at this size, it should be possible to take 407 weighing around 255 or so eventually.
-
oh man, not that I want to necessarily encourage you to go back up to the 270s plus but could you imagine if you hold on to a tight bench during this cut, then made that winter run again like you...

Great job on the squats. You’re going to do a lifetime PR max soon. Just keep doing what you’re doing!
