dude that is hilarious cause thats actually exactly what I do when I'm not cutting. first cup with wife, add creamer. get to work, any additional cups are black lol 😂 😂
usually same thing...
I quit drinking booze almost 8 years ago. My coffee is my long time replacement. And I like my coffee like my ladies, Tan and bitter. I don't enjoy black coffee or coffee with skim milk or any of...
Well moderating in that aspect could just be one coffee with the creamer, and one black. So you get one coffee the way you prefer it, and the second just as a pick me up.
It was a solid bench day for me.
Our kids are really into the Peanuts right now so we are all dressing on that theme. Kids are funny what they get into.
Oh the flu kicks my butt! I just realized eventually that 4-5 days lost once a decade is better than 1-2 annually. I realize I’m an outlier, but that’s what I’m working with.
Yeah those are stupid. What’s best without kids is if a friend has a costume party at their house, or staying home to a movie to pass out candy (or just eating some 😝).
I think this a lot before unracking a big squat set, genuinely.
Sometimes you have to just jump and let your mind catch up with the fact that this is happening, so get on board.
It’s also why...
This is where powerlifting is more mentally taxing to me, than other forms of barbell sports. I mean I'm here to embrace the suck, but YES! you know you have a job to do and the expectation is...
sometimes on that top set I start locking in, get my hands placed, loop under the bar, find the scar tissue that runs horizontally across my back to wedge the knurling against and my head is going...
What he is doing right now is pretty damn close, but he is keeping enough in the tank for solid training.
I will post up some pics this weekend. I have to takesome for the contest. I still have a...
dude I'm getting close here. Love your's and Hyde's progress, its really inspiring me. Not for a full blown bodybuilder style cut, but more of a leaning out while strength training like Hyde's...
AMEN!
Haha, no, but the progress to the diet is. :)
It is a Houston based place, so come on down and we can get a session in together and go for some solid food and amazing desserts after...
^ if we can't live a little, are we really living?
But 100% agree with doing things for our partners/family etc. Even if it's a bit of a sacrifice for our personal goals.
But then again, is...
You know Smont if you stopped wasting 120 calories on that bs creamer you’re using you could have another 30g protein or carbs.
I use Coffee Mate Zero Sugar if I don’t drink it black, and it’s 10...
Based on your response last weekend and especially your timeline being aggressive, no slow like mine, I really think that’s the right play. Just the one measured hi carb day every 7. DiPasquale...
And it is very good you’re deloading, because it is normal to be kind of messed up the week after a meet. Extra emphasis on mobility and warmups should be made, even with low weights. Something...
Agree with Slim & Kleen. Both of their ideas are great.
You need to practice what you want to be good at. If you have any aspirations at 700, don’t forsake the big lifts - you don’t have to lift...
Are you feeling really beat up? I wouldn't be pushing hard the week after a meet. As far as the RP block, that just depends on if you want to do another meet any time soon. I think if you are not...
You could do a less demanding 5/3/1 template. 5s Pro + FSL as supplemental would be good. If you haven’t you should check out his weekly YouTube Q/A, it’s really good.
I used to get flu vaccines until I realized I reacted particularly poorly - as a mechanic I’d have to take a full day off work to recover usually. They’d basically make me sick for a day or two...
I'm with you across the board there. I do think that in addition to the physical and mental health benefits at the gym, we also gain some added level of immune protection being exposed to so many...

Also, I think it’s good to have TMs where they are for now, but if you test and say bench 315, reset the TM down to that at least - don’t keep on with the inflated value. If not lower, like...
