Thank you for the suggestion, but Eucommia Ulmoides itself is meant to be used daily for best results.
The new version of Super Swole, I'm very excited about. Both the powder form and capsule...
Hey - defintiely congratulate Sage on her weight loss journey so far. As others have said, very impressive! That amount of weight alone can be life changing for mobility, energy, or just plain...
Great suggestions as always!
I agree, but I am definitely going to share this with her. It will mean a lot.
Oh, I am going to do well. I am motivated for tomorrow. I think I need to do my...
JFC dude thats so impressive. people post that kinda stuff and I'm like do you even realize how big a deal that is?? 40lbs in 6 months. thats 6.6lbs per month and 6 months of legit hard work and...
Thanks on both points! I am a little nervous going into the diet, kind of like the nervous you get before a big leg day. Excited, but knowing it is going to be very hard at first, but also very...
I’m going to vote on 180-185 as your opener. In a suit you will have a little more spring, in a comp you will as well. If you wrap your knees instead of sleeves that will give an extra 5% as well...
[emoji817] the right environment can definitely provide an extra level of being amped up!
I just wish I had someone objective there who could help me decide #s based on how my lift looks and how...
You might also find it surprising of what you can put up under pressure and with a crowd. Don’t know in a setting like that but at a public gym like going for a max effort and I would ask for a...

Whew, this was hard but not insane to complete. Woke up a few minutes late so I...
Ah, got it! Well, eff me I guess then, as I am assuming I will come in with some of the lightest sets, with fairly close weight attempts to one another. So theoretically, I could be up 3 back to...
these weights are making more sense to me compared to your bodyweight, its good to see you pushing heavier squats and I see no notes on injury/pain issues. I'm really excited/curious to watch...
Reasoning for that was low workload but wanted to feel moderately heavier weight and I won’t hit deads until next Friday. But yes have definitely made strides in terms of strength!
Loving the progress and I like the live edge table. I have a few slabs I’ve bought I’m planning on making cutting boards out of but I just haven’t had time. My only free time I’ve been using to...
Good luck with the transformation challenge! Always good to have that extra little motivation to kick into high gear.
East Coast shoreline got slammed with the recent storm. A lot of our beaches...
I got in a nice lower session yesterday, focused the efforts on the compounds.
Quad Dominant - Pendulum Leg Press 270x5 sets
Posterior Chain - Hex Bar Dead Lifts 185 x5 sets
Trying to get my...
Most of the time I think the standard is that an opener should be something you can do for 3 reps. Seeing this I would likely opt for 175ish, or plan to do the full jump from 165 to 195 and treat...

Only kinda, i've definitely turned the corner a little bit where the gut has also expanded (I can tell when I put on my belt for squats/pulls) so I need to cut an inch off the gut IMO. everything...
Back from the trip. Only 2 legit cheat meals including desserts (just ice cream though). Otherwise, lots of double grilled chicken with Siracha subs from subway. I likely went over maintenance...
I don't have tons of recommendations, sounds like you have a decent plan on the 165, 185, 205 as a skeleton plan. If 165 flies, consider the 30lb jump, and if that flies you pick from there. If...
tbh I never really cared to have people attend when I was competing unless they too, were competing. I think we had friends show up one time and it was nice to show off for them a bit, but most of...
right on! does that shift the mentality a bit to be more intentional/focused?
I always have 7% in my head now days from what you and Hyde have said and it sure seems like about the right number...
Thanks! Definitely looking forward to it. It's also so completely different from the type of trips we've done with the kids so far.
As long as it's a football field's distance away I'll be OK...
Got the work in still! Yeah it takes me a fair amount of warmups with bands doing face pulls and I do lat raises and front raises and some overhead tricep extensions and all to get everything...
