Man, it sounds like you had an awesome meet. Congrats on hitting all of your target weights. Looking at these I feel you had a little more on the squat, maybe another 5-10lbs on bench, and easily...
Dang man, sorry to hear that you didn’t land the position. Sounds like you are going to be winding down for the year and yeah holidays and family time and definitely personal goals!
Sorry you didn’t get the job….another door and opportunity will open up. Focusing on family and personal goals is the best thing you can do at this time of year.
On the one hand, I have found the old saying "when God closes a door he opens a window" to be insanely true. I remember praying with my ex when I was like 22yrs old, wanting a farm of my own one...

Those numbers for total and free test, along with SHBG look pretty good to me.
Do you also run estradiol?
Is this saying you run natto year round? Even while only on TRT dosing? Or only when...
Alright labs are back
Pretty happy with these
H/H - 16.9/52.1 - need to watch this. Probably need to hydrate better. Started natto- 10,000 FU daily last week. Would prefer to not have to give...

Deload over , LFG. Should be blast day 1 but I’m still waiting on labwork results. Don’t even see them pending so I need to make sure they got sent before I start so I don’t need to do TRT...
Another AM, another day up and at it. Just some short cardio today, 25:20 mins on the stationary bike, 111 cals. Used a little Raze energy shot + XPG Napalm Xtreme pre-WO.
Found out yesterday I...
Man that’s quite a novel I bet at this point! If you take one thing from it, I hope you see that the journey of strength is not always easy or linear. I named this log after the Odyssey for a...
Wanted to pay back the respect to your log that you have shown me, and man what a journey! I’ve read thru a majority of it over last few weeks an I still got some to go.
Keep on killing it!
Another great thing about this meet is that you basically have great values for training maxes if you use percentage ranges at all guide your next block of training. You can just program off...
Back at it this morning.

Keeping everything at roughly 65% volume for a deload this week. Just aiming...
Congrats man. We all knew it (and more) was in there looking at the logs.
Hope you keep hitting the powerlifting work hard even if you add your BB stuff back in .
Yeah, a lot of this I think was based on what I had in my head coming in. Basically for bench I was thinking top set of between 195-205 if things went well, but I ended up splitting the...
Congratulations on a great first meet! I’m glad to hear it was such a positive experience; I expected it would be. I also think you made good decisions for openers and throughout. You have the...
I'm now officially insulted. Your top sets look like my 50% warm-up weights in terms of speed and power. I'm not sure how these could possibly be your legit 1RM, you are underselling yourself by a...
All 3 look good, definitely had more in you on squat and deadlift for sure, bench maybe 205-210. Solid work brother! Awesome to see this come together!
Yeah, I mean historically I also know I've been capable of much more, including close to 300# DL? I can't recall specifics, but it's in this log. But that was a different time. Similarly, squat...
That's awesome man, loved reading about your day! Without watching you lift, but reading your log over the years, I would have agreed with the judges just off instinct that you likely already have...
