Hi all
I am new here. I used to scroll on muscletalk back in the day, i am active on some glp places but not been on any decent fitness forums for some time.
Took a long break from lifting as i...
Twice now, both times good sessions where I had all I needed in the tank to finish well. So the verdict is still out, but so far seems beneficial on my keto training days.
Oh cool, I didn’t know you were also (nearly) 44. I’ll be 45 in April, and my plan is to keep my training max level for the two leader, and one anchor cycle which is about 11 weeks, and then try...
I’m getting back to what I was doing when I was getting really close. Admittedly I’ve messed around too much, and I’m honestly not trying to focus on numbers. I’m trying to just enjoy the process...

No I don’t have a close grip…it’s a little wider than my shoulders, with forearms straight. It’s really been fine though 4 cycles of 5/3/1, and then I had that issue on the HS Shoulder Press, and...
Right, that is the goal - I was talking about goal successful attempts at the meet. It doesn’t matter what you talk about, only what you can actually pull off on the day. There’s so many variables...

I don’t think you’re in a place to set goals. You don’t know how you will progress. Hard numbers are just pointless wishes at this point - you won’t need to think about it until at least a month out.
First deadlift session back in a while...

Do not sweat the deload or stopping the LGD. You will lose a couple lbs of glycogen but the TRT will hold everything the LGD actually built, this is...

My only experience with TX is Dallas/Ft Worth 3 different times over the years. Which has been alright, but I definitely prefer OKC so far.
Great info, thank you. My son always loves to go to the...
It’s actually an event in Strongman competitions sometimes. Which is weird because it’s basically just a shoulder press machine, but lots of competitors love it because it’s so simple. The most...
Okc is a nice city. Only problem is it’s in Oklahoma. Just needs to be moved to Texas and it would be better
We actually vacation up there a lot. It’s got an amazing children’s science museum...
Sounds like a fun gym with lots of toys….I’ve never seen a Viking press, but that’s a cool name for a machine.
Edit: Just looked it up….that’s awesome.
Man so far I love it here! I know everyone from here thinks this heat is bad but I think it feels incredible; I’m ready to move. I can’t believe how cool it is. I can’t even break a sweat outside...
