And like Grok alluded to, shifting macros towards protein overfeeding can be a real strategy at times. In addition to being way more full if hunger is an issue, the same calories of protein...
Ohhhhh I gotcha. Yeah, I’m not too worried about digging a deficit as much as recovering sufficiently which I think is just because the deficit ends up being too aggressive while training too...
I was afraid they'd all think it was me!! 😂😂
I got hit by one on my flight home from SC last week and I almost blurted out "are you fucking kidding me right now?" took a little restraint to not...
I got stuck behind a probably 60 to 70 year old woman who farted the entire flight from Rhode Island to Florida. Just bad enough to make you keep your nose covered, not bad enough to make you...
It was, but the post fun gas has been epic. My girlfriend threw me out the bedroom last night and made me light a candle on the way out lol.
I had a busy week, missed 2 of my workouts but I...
Man glad to hear you’re getting to ramp up training in cool ways, and congrats on the job opportunity to prove yourself in such a visible fashion (and make a fat stack).
Well, if the MRI ends up showing it’s not attached, that’s it - no amount of stem cells etc can make a detached ligament re-anchor correctly, so the imaging to be sure what’s up is imperative to...
Man sorry to hear about your shoulder, but at least you know now, and sounds like you’re already figuring out a plan of action. Good job continuing to put the work in, it will payoff. That’s great...
I think we are getting closer for sure. Plus, I have been able to add more things in even with this, so I am pretty excited about those things as well. Things are looking up.
Also great news on...
I had my tight pec worked on last night and it is bruised up and sore. Diet was on point, and did my 1 hour walk at lunch.
Also we reviewed my most recent x-rays where we focused on the...
I had a decent trip, tons of work, was putting in 14-15 hour days... I managed one full body session while gone, and while I did not make any progress on the cut, I did not lose any ground either...
I would personally not exceed 12-13 reps on AMRAP barbell work. There comes a point where risk of injury from mounting exhaustion supersedes potential benefits. There is nothing a 20-rep squat can...
right on! I have had days where any empty bar ROM is like.. knees.. then shin... then ankle. then finally its flat on the ground with my hands wrapped around it for a full stretch. its sorta funny...
I would bump squats the 20lbs this next cycle but probably keep deads to the normal 10lb TM increase. Reason being you don’t want to change too much at once. Things are working; you can extra bump...
OK thats good feedback. with these minor adjustments I'll stay the course here then, give the AMRAPs hell, and see what unfolds. I agree on Joker sets potentially overtaxing me, thats something...
Just a personal opinion here, but I think if you are worrying about recovery you should be limiting your joker sets, not the AMRAP. With how much lower your volume is now than before, recovering...
I appreciate you guys pipping in. a lot of thist stuff I probably "know" but sometimes I gotta bounce it off the sounding board or you get stuck in your own wind tunnel making questionable...
Yes, I thought your upper body lifts were a little too close to your maxes, specifically bench.
What @Hyde says about bumping 20 on the next cycle makes sense to me.
This is where building...
I also recently saw a study that suggested the top tier performance in some areas (like running) was largely maintainable from age 18 through the 50s. I think the comparrison they drew was a mile...
Also, change of plans. I'll be continuing a light to moderate cut instead of the last maintenance plan. I'm still too close to the next size up in pants and it's not ok.
When I was a teenager, I used to know this senior citizen pastor who would train in hunting muffs to block out all the noise that wanted to give me free swimming lessons at a lake somehow figured...
