So your diet sounds very sound for an athlete, quality energy sources, good macros, and quite tasty.
But there’s no way your glycogen is getting very low eating almost 3k calories with 300g carbs...
The past week was about 2800-2900 kcal, 220g pro, 80g fat, 300g CHO, or just above to hit 2900. Today will be 3k most likely though because of the workout. Adding back in the low sugar Gatorade...
Kind of took it easy today, took 5% or so off each lift and kept volume moderate. <6 hours sleep again and still recovering from the sinus infection. Glycogen very low now.

Yeah that is wild to me; they must feel so awful. They walk around red tinted and then turn purple - that’s just sticking your head in the sand. When I am turning bright red by end of set, I know...

a bit sore today, lol. feet, quads, and hands.
couple co-workers came out to help buck yesterday and they were late to work this morning so I assume I'm not the only one who felt it, haha.
Yeah it would probably help me in this regard. We will see how the next 3-4 months go though for me. I’ve learned over the years to recognize when I’m over training but it would be nice for...
Fwiw, I have been enjoying the RP Strength app. But I do think it'll only be useful for you if you stick with the prescribed sets/weights/reps. It takes a bit of adjustment mentally - it probably...
Agree with what @Hyde said. I do them because I need a definitive end goal to make changes and hold myself accountable. When I don't have one planned out the gym/ diet is not the best. Should...
I think I paid $9.99 for my 531 app but there is a free version too, so if a person wanted to use a free app for a while on a circuit and not feel like you're losing on an app you bought...
Well unfortunately they jumped the gun and didn't have approval and cancelled, so I am now waiting to hear about an approval. Frustrating, but it is what it is.
Had some good training over the...
Donated blood today, but the draw site clotted when the bag was 90% full so they can only use it for research now. Which, it is a shame that someone in need isn’t going to get my awesome, thick...
Ha, I realized I had been saying my guy bought the gym 5 years ago, but he bought it in 2018. I joined in 2017…the first owner gave a deal to our employees of $15 a month. Then in 2018 when my guy...
