    Well, I had planned to skip when it was supposed to be a big bbq event, but some people cancelled and it turned into a sit down semi-formal dinner, so my daughter’s bf family is all staring at me. Skipping that is different then skipping a bbq where no one is paying attention.

    Good points which I need a reminder of as well. The deficit induced irritability is getting me also. 😔

    And back to 209.2 today. Upper workout later. Saw a picture of myself from my daughter’s birthday party last week and was pleasantly surprised. I’m much closer to the first goal of Hardy’s “Bane” physique than I thought.

    Weight: 211.0 I did end up eating at the bbq, but only had 1 plate and estimate that I went over maintenance by a few hundred calories. Eating my own meal before showing up helped circumvent any other self sabotage. Onward.

    Not nearly as sore as I thought I’d be. Next time will be 5 sets of 3, maybe a bit more weight.

    Good call. Hypertrophy is not my goal with squats or or deads, so maybe I’ll just focus on what I can low. I think I recover better from low rep higher intensity better also.

    Well, it’s just hard to believe, because literally every success story you hear is “I lost 20 pounds and feel great!” Even better versions of AI such as Grok say we shouldn’t feel like absolutely garbage and can’t sleep more than 6 hours in a mild deficit. You have to scour the bowels of...

    Building Back Up

    Today is officially day 1. Birthday celebrations and vacation over. 4 weeks until the next weekend out of my control (but not a disaster type thing). The previous 5 weeks of this vacation taught me that there is no way for me to lose body fat without feeling like trash, even doing it slowly...

    Back in the US. Great trip, snorkeling, rain forest, bioluminescent bay kayaking, old San Juan and castle exploring, great food. Southeast US is boring.
