As much as I can, I'm definitely skipping things on days that I'm hurting but overall I'm getting a decent amount done. Like today would be a full body with heavy bench but I'm taking a few extra...
Agreed, and if tempted to do something that will make you feel good or gain you some positive attention is not bad either. Do what you enjoy people who think it is douchy or react negatively to...
Glad to hear it!
I do 90% of anything in public in tank tops in the summer, because it’s hot out 🥵 When you have muscles, you just run hotter so you need to. That’s what you call ‘wide privilege’ 😝

Weight: 206.0 again.
Slept awesome last night, and drinking a low sugar Gatorade and a Powerade Zero really make the difference in sleep in a steep deficit. It sounds crazy but even Grok...
Run 5s on the negatives, 1-2 sets of 5 negatives with something to push you back up as you curl hard as you can. PVC pipe, wide lat pulldown handle, a training partner. But I’ve seen that work...
Thanks guys, yeah, you're right. I did hit 3400kcal yesterday but according to fitbit burned 3500. Slept so much better though:. I'll drop back down today.
The cognitive side effects were...
Man sorry to hear about the back strain in warmups. But great job sucking it up and still finishing strong. You still put up respectable numbers in spite of the injury. 💪😎👍
Dang, stinks you took a ding right off the bat in warmups - sounds like you actually did peak well, just had the back aggravation & couldn’t display what you are capable of.
That’s a strong...

Meet Recap
Meet ended up being my worst meet based on last heavy's hands down. Started out with my 1st warm up of squats will 135lbs and felt a pain in my left lower...
So squats, then about 2 miles walking down town. Got to show about 6:45, no sitting. Doors at 7, music at 8 sharp. Last song at 12 midnight. It was four hours of non stop Layne Staley songs from a...

Notes
295 was harder than it should have been but week 1 is always my hardest...
An occasional hard push feels like it's clearing all the crud out of your system. I think if I'm careful with it, a slightly improved conditioning could help with my strength training but gotta be...
I agree although at 1/10th mile intervals if I can't do that then I'm in worse shape than I thought [emoji1787]
Idk where cardio is gonna go. I don't enjoy doing it necessarily but I like how it...
What is funny is I got on here to give an status update and got distracted. The last week and a half I have been pushing things harder anywhere I can. I decided what I love is the hard work, the...
Somewild times man! Pretty sure my parents still have a tub full of readers digests. I don’t know why but when I think of readers digest I can still hear Paul Harvey on the radio, “and now you...
You have deadlifter’s arms comparatively as I recall, so I’m not surprised you feel better a bit closer - this lets your relatively longer arms stack up a bit better for more leverage out of the...
Also pretty much done with rough grade on dirt pad 30x50 is the slab dimension. All within 3/4”. Next step is to dig in water/septic lines. Then will have to regrade dress up dirt again. Then it...
