PCT has been going ok. Not a whole lot to report. Didn't end the cycle well and had to kinda reassess things. Getting back on track now. Will do a full write up towards the end of pct and keep updating here and there throughout. Any questions please ask.
Day two of PCT. Deadlifts went fantastic on Monday to finish out the TE/PR. Much needed after how they moved last Monday.
DEADS
-680 X 3
BLOCK PULLS
-585 X 3 sets of 5
POWER SHRUGS
-495 x 3 sets of 5
FACE PULLS
-2 sets of 20
My lower back has been fried ever since. 3rd rep with 680 was...
I bought mine from Titan Fitness. I was a little skeptical at first since it doesn't have a weight rating but this thing is a tank. 85 lbs and solid. I got it after all was said and done for under $100 bucks shipped...Steal of a lifetime. Definitely humbled me the first few times I used it.
DAY 27. I weigh myself every Saturday. Still no weight gain at all. Pretty shocked I haven't managed to put on a single pound during this cycle. Calories were even increased so I don't know what is going on. Strength is all over the place. Terrible day Monday, deads felt like I was pulling...
DAY 25. Deadlifts went terribly on Monday. Bench 2 session and today's squat session went much better. Today went like so
CAMBER BAR SQUATS
-645 lb single
SAFETY SQUAT BAR SQUATS
-435 lbs + Orange micro mini bands on each side (no clue how much band tension is at the top of these)
5 sets of 3...
Day 22. I haven't gained any weight this cycle. I gained a few initially, lost some then gained that back but I am pretty much where I started. I am pretty disappointed in that. I was hoping to get up to the 300lb mark. At 8 lbs away before starting TE and PR I thought it was a lock. This would...
Exactly. Some things that work for others just flat out wont work for you and vice versa. Switch up variables, experiment and see what works for you. It wont last forever. When you stop improving, make some changes!
Nice man. Just keep plugging away. So many different variables but the main thing is to just keep pushing forward. It's almost like an experiment. You tweak different variables over and over until you find what works. You ride that out and then you do it all over again.
I benched 95 senior year of hs lol. Pretty sure squat and dead were sub 300. 150lbs bw. It's just hard work and consistency as well as a mindset shift to push new boundaries. You can do it man.
DAY 17. Still no sign of life on this planet. I have become my own best friend. Send help soon.
LOL. Kidding. Cruising along. Getting noticeably bigger but minimal weight gain if any at all yet. Strange. Strength is humming along as well. Took my TE dose before training since I trained really...
DAY 14. Sitting at 291 so I recovered a few of the lbs I had lost last week. I am hoping to get somewhere close to 300 lbs BW when this is done. Had a fantastic BENCH session yesterday. Feeling really good. Snapped a few pics after my back session Friday. Wanted to get a few pics after all the...
Training has been really good this week. Things are definitely getting saturated at this point. Today was day 11, all doses done. Monday I hit deads with a top set of 705x2. Followed with some trap bar work, barbell power shrugs and face pulls. Tuesday I had BENCH against bands, 345lb bar weight...
Things are going great so far. I am gonna post a catch up post tonight with some detailed sessions from this week when I have some time to sit down and breathe lol. If anyone has any questions for me please ask.
Strength is definitely picking up. Hit Bench today and hit a rep PR I have been shooting for for some time now. This training cycle led me to this point but I do feel like this stuff is starting to get saturated.
BENCH
-455 lbs for 4 singles and then a triple on the fifth set
MultiGrip Bar...
Still not much to report other than I feel good and am starting to feel thicker/heavier. Sleep has been great since that first night, no issues there. Should start noticing some things here in the second week. Training has been good this week. Thursday I hit some Camber Bar squats, which are...
