GreenMachineX replied to the thread Building Back Up.I’ve talked about this before, but unsure where we left it. I want to start including sled push into my routine somewhere they won’t hinder recovery. I’m thinking it’s probably best on the limb... -
you're lower than me today, I was a whopping 208lbs of manbloat this morning after multiple servings of my wifes spaghetti last night lol

GreenMachineX replied to the thread How Much Protein Do You Really Need for Muscle Growth?.Literally wasn’t sure if you truly believed it’s necessary, or it’s much more simple to recommend.

GreenMachineX replied to the thread How Much Protein Do You Really Need for Muscle Growth?.You don’t subscribe to 1.6-2.2g per kg?

GreenMachineX replied to the thread Building Back Up.Weight: 204.4 Still haven’t consistently pulled my calories down to 2800, but still losing fat anyway at ~3000 average, just slower than I’d like…although it’s nice to have minimal cutting side...

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

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...

Can’t say that I notice any difference. There is one preworkout I can’t do in the evening and that is edge of insanity, other then that seem to be fine.
-
GreenMachineX replied to the thread Building Back Up.That’s bizarre. Today was the first day I had caffeine past 3pm (diet coke at 8pm), but I’m sure it’ll be fine. You haven’t noticed tolerance to doing the same thing all year?
-
And ghosts! Apparently in @Dustin07 case. [emoji38] On average my guess is around 600mg. For me a typical day could be, PreWO: 150-300mg caffeine AM coffee (80-100mg) PM soda ( Similar...
-
Caffeine absolutely is a PED. It’s well documented - I believe force output was found to continue to increase through 600mg! And the LD50 is something like multiple grams, so even that big acute...
-
GreenMachineX replied to the thread Building Back Up.No, but 100mg or whatever doesn’t do what it used to right? Eventually, it only brings you up to “normal”, so you’re just operating at a deficit until it had enough caffeine to get back to normal...
-
Resets are internet non-sense. That’s not how your receptors work. You can take a very long period off, you add caffeine back, and it feels incredible for about 3 days. Then you begin to...
-
GreenMachineX replied to the thread Building Back Up.Right, of course. I’m asking because I’m currently up to 150mg caffeine daily and considering a reset already LOL
-
GreenMachineX replied to the thread Building Back Up.I should’ve also asked…how often do y’all do a reset?
-
600-900 That would look like 1-3 cups of coffee, an energy drink between 140-300, and preWO consisting of 250-350mg. Only 250-450 on Saturdays because no training and it’s my highest cal, hi...
-
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...
-
Around the 600 mark , 2 cups of coffee then a 300-350mg preworkout.
-
GreenMachineX replied to the thread Building Back Up.So maybe 600mg per day?
-
GreenMachineX replied to the thread Building Back Up.How much caffeine are you guys using per day including coffee?
-
Well, there’s definitely no way you’ll get small shoulders doing seated press twice per week still lol. You may lose some standing strength, but that will come back when you return to the pattern...
-
GreenMachineX replied to the thread Building Back Up.Oh my goodness, autocorrect literally changes what I'm saying sometimes. I meant I’m not* doing standing OHP for the rest of the cut.

GreenMachineX replied to the thread Building Back Up.meh, some competition between men is healthy!

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...

GreenMachineX replied to the thread Building Back Up.lol yeah, quite sure you’re ahead of me though in strength and body comp

drop 2 more lbs and we'll be twinning so hard
-
GreenMachineX replied to the thread Building Back Up.Weight: 204.2 today. New low. Today will be one of those days I eat closer to maintenance, but I'll trim calories from lunch to make up for it. Dinner will likely be out at longhorn, steak and...

GreenMachineX replied to the thread Building Back Up.Right, yeah, it's easy and I get it. When I'm in the moment is the issue..."uh oh, if I don't eat enough, I might be stuck awake at 3am...or willi feel like Garbage? Or will I not be able to...
