GreenMachineX replied to the thread Building Back Up.I’m not talking about score; I’m talking about when you know you were “unconscious” but not really resting…as in not restorative. As I said, it’s not physically possible to get more than 5ish... -
GreenMachineX replied to the thread Building Back Up.Ate closer to maintenance yesterday and slept a better almost 6 hours. Otherwise, down another belt notch! Forgot to log yesterdays workout: TBDL 3 x 3 x 345 TB Shrugs 3 x 6 x 165 Cable Shrugs...

GreenMachineX replied to the thread Building Back Up.A quality 5.5 hours is fine; that’s different than a restless 5.5 hours. I don’t have the ability to tack on extra time (meaning when this is happening, my body doesn’t let me).
-
GreenMachineX replied to the thread Building Back Up.Weight: 204.4 Let’s go!!! Losing weight quick now, even though I still eat roughly 2800-3200 every day. Sleep is totally jacked again. Electrolyte thing didn’t work out. Although, it’s not...

We’ll see how this weekend goes first! Gotta make it through the gauntlet, but the plan for at least the next month is to trim a few more lbs of fat because we’re going on vacation to Huntington...
-
Oh hell yeah! I am here for this! You are going to be one strong AND aesthetic mofo at 198! Hell yeah! Kill it man! I know you have this, you have made all of your current progress through...

💯💯💯💯💯 It was far easier for me to stay leaned up in that 9-12% range for many years than it is to go on a bulk/cut cycle like I have the past 5 years. I had nutrition dialed, output dialed, I...

GreenMachineX replied to the thread Building Back Up.Standing OHP 3 x 6 x 135 Horizontal Pull-ups 3 x 6 Machine Chest Press 3 sets Crossbody Cable Lateral Raise 3 sets HS OHP 2 sets Oddly enough, felt like I did more than that while I was there...
-
This is mainly why I’m considering doing next meet in the 198 class. Not because it will help me get stronger or hit my lifetime strength goals, but rather those ultimately exist in the other...

GreenMachineX replied to the thread Building Back Up.Excellent points. Thanks. Motivation renewed!
-
Yeah but you could do that in 2 months if you truly had to.
-
GreenMachineX replied to the thread Building Back Up.Yeah, we’ll see. That’s15 pounds away lol
-
GreenMachineX replied to the thread Building Back Up.I have a long way to go 😂 I’m thinking I won’t truly be satisfied until 190, but unlikely to push that far.
-
GreenMachineX replied to the thread Building Back Up.Oh, that wasn’t on purpose. It was a week of going to the ER thinking I had something stuck in my throat, couldn’t sleep, scared to eat, hadn’t worked out in a couple months. No life hack there...
-
Congratulations! Keep on keeping on!
-
GreenMachineX replied to the thread Building Back Up.Yessir! Definitely hydrated, but unsure on level of glycogen storage. Either way, the only time I hit 203 was when I was eating one meal per day for about a week.
-
GreenMachineX replied to the thread Building Back Up.Weight: 205.0 New 5 year low! And slept really good. Went a little extra hard on the electrolytes. Will keep testing this hypothesis.

GreenMachineX replied to the thread Building Back Up.Sorry, “felt like trash” was a separate thought. Not enough sleep and felt kind of weak again.
-
It’s definitely a solid hit to the hammies; should help build you up to use the GHD eventually. Good work.
-
GreenMachineX replied to the thread Building Back Up.5.5 hours sleep last night…so, that experiment failed quickly 😂 Squat 3 x 3 x 275/285/295 GHR-Back Extensions 3/3/3 Pull-ups 4/4/3/3 Machine Shrugs 3 sets Skullcrushers 3 sets DB Curls 3 sets I...
-
It could have been my wording as well. Basically just saying don't marry yourself to a limitation based on the correlations, unless you really see some repeated, and convincing proof that it is...
-
GreenMachineX replied to the thread Building Back Up.Thanks and I’m with you on everything, but can you say this line differently? Major brain fog today lol
-
I definitely think it is right to keep track of these things and see if you can find the reason, just don't commit to the "can't do" to heartily off of a correlation unless it proves itself to...
-
Another thing I was thinking aside from the potassium is honestly the water. Now you may be drinking the exact same total amount of fluid either way, measuring and simply replacing with the drinks...

FWIW if you decide to forego the deficits I found some awesome pics of Rhinos in Tuxedos for inspiration:
-
GreenMachineX replied to the thread Building Back Up.Gotcha, yeah, you’re right though, I do do that, because I still refuse to believe I’m the delicate snowflake that can’t handle a normal deficit. It’s super frustrating. Up until this point, I...

GreenMachineX replied to the thread Building Back Up.Weight: 205.6 600 calorie deficit and training hard yesterday but still slept great…only difference between yesterday and any bad day the past 3 years was drinking 1 low sugar Gatorade and 1...

GreenMachineX replied to the thread Building Back Up.Weight: 206.6 Ate at close to maintenance yesterday, but definitely doesn't fell that way. Flat Bench 3 x 7/6/6 x 225 T-Bar Row 3 x 6 x 90 Seated BB OHP 3 x 7 x 135 High Cable Row 3 sets Incline...

Like.
Yeah, I need to be able to push on something hard, otherwise I get board and disenchanted with the whole process. It is just frustrating at that point. Yeah, once you get to a certain age, and or... -
Way to get back in it quickly!
