Here is an example of default deadlift day.
That + sign opens up a whole slew of additional movements and you can custom add some as well
My priorities when I go in are 5/3/1, then BBB.
I...
worth noting, when I got home from vacation around may 10th, I didn't have any direction. I was just doing a bodybuilding split but without specific goals, so I fired up the 531 app to take extra...
I am now that I'm being a bit smarter with volume and recovery. Historically 531 would give me fantastic gains and completely destroy me within 2 cycles. I'm starting cycle 5 next week and I'm...
I've been running totally basic 531 with occasional jokers (depending on fatigue level) and BBB almost every time unless I'm pinched on time. so 4 day split basically: Squat/Bench/Deadlift/OHP...
same, since bringing standing OHP back in with my 531 I'm grateful for how its reconditioning my core tbh. I can tell when throwing heavy weight overhead when my structure can't support it and I'm...
Weight: 207.2
I forgot to say in my workout yesterday that I showed my wife how to do the seated barbell press, and even with just the bar, we both felt our front delts fire like never before...
TBDL 3 x 3/3/4 x 335
Lying Hamstring Curls 2 sets
Cable Shrugs 3 sets
DB Walking Lunges 1 set
Machine Preacher Curl 4 sets
Skullcrushers 3 sets
Felt a lot better then yesterday. Maybe I was...
After looking back over my log and food log, the last i made substantial progress losing fat was at this time eating 2600 kcal on average. I’ll be dropping calories to this most days. 6 weeks...
Machine press would be great.
You have to be realistic about how much you can handle and have time for, but 2-3 sets each of light closegrip bench and machine press are definitely solid ideas...
Machine press would be fine, and something similar is okay, you just want to get the extra volume in. Like machine presses 4 x 10, maybe some close grip bench 5 x 10….close grip bench really helps...
Ran out of time this AM. My goal is to put some hypertrophy/accessory work in after. Was originally thinking of doing some seated chest press or seated machine flys. Is machine press too similar?
You only have to put in an opening attempt for each lift at weighins, so it’s best to always put an easy opener. Then based on how that goes, during the meet you will walk over to the score table...
Also, overdue but here are some of the pictures I promised from my visit to Newtech Gym in Vegas!
A couple of shots to show the size & number of DBs and machines, a close up of the...

Stopped here as not to overdue it in Week 1. Definitely felt I could have done more weight...
Yeah, I was using it more to try and figure out where my meso will end me. More a gauge of how I should potentially be progressing during these next several weeks.
Do you normally have to call...
All the blood values make sense - hematocrit should rise with more test, and SHBG definitely drop. It’s great PSA hasn’t risen, as a small but unlucky percentage can see prostate issues. Always...
For sure. Whole trip was actually really great. Vegas is pretty neat in that there's so many things to do, gamble (which I didn't bother with), shows (which I did), great food (definitely did...
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.
Yep got it, I think that seems really reasonable and obtainable for sure. Always to if things are really clicking in training and numbers go up you can always adjust.
Exciting stuff man!
