Bench Deload Day
I knew I wasn’t going to get a PR on bench so I didn’t attempt it . I would have needed 9 reps for the PR and 5 felt awfully heavy as it was . Maybe I could have got 6 , possibly 7 but 9 wasn’t happening so I stopped at 5

Honestly, I think it’s just being so light , I remember when I would go for jogs when I was 225-230 and it took me a long time to work up to being able to run a consistent 5 k . Just getting 1 k was hard when I weighed that much .
I think I’m going to start adding in two real cardio days a week, not just walks . Not for any fat loss purposes as I’m pretty much as lean as I wanted to be, for overall well being and to see if it helps me in the gym with my lifts / super sets . Nothing crazy , maybe one jog a week and one 30...
I went for a jog yesterday before the buffet . I haven’t ran since last year but decided to give it a go . Despite having not ran since last year , I did an easy 3 k, didn’t have to stop at all to catch my breath and got home feeling okay . Next weekend I will try and see if I can still run 5 k...
531 Deload week and Some PR tests.
Decided to go with the deload PR test week to see where we are at . I need to get at least 5 reps on each final set to keep my training max the same . I may stop at 5 if I know I won’t PR but if I feel like I might then I’ll go for it , like I did today...
I did it right , the trick is to stick to mostly meat and vegetables . I would say 80 percent of what I ate was prime rib roast, it was so good I went back for plate after plate . There was also some very good lamb and honey ham. This was served from a a server who cut the meat right off the...
On a side note, I have a cheat meal scheduled for today at noon. I am hitting an all you can eat buffet.
I will be literally dusting off the EvoMuse Defuse for this one. I am going to go to town but stick to mostly meat and vegetables . I think the last cheat meal I had was before this log...
Still on track , lost half a pound last week which I feel like is a pretty good deficit at this point. I don’t have much more fat to lose on my body and I don’t have a set deadline to lose it so I’m going to keep going down nice and slow to try and hold onto what I have / maybe even make a bit...
God is Beast
Heavy Shoulder Press Day
Woke up early today , was at work before 5 am , slipped out of work a bit early and hit the gym . Solid workout today . I really grilled my back at the end with some Romanian Deadlifts . That’s a double down on deadlifts as I did my volume conventional...
Yeah I am really liking this God is Beast Plan. Next I will probably run a cycle of first set last 5 pros for the anchor cycle then I’m thinking I’ll run coffinworm
Got to the gym kinda late today . Really had to motor but I killed it!

I love running 531 programs . They take all the guess work out of it . All the workouts are set and I go in and just get it done . I use the KEYLIFTS App. It’s awesome , they have all the templates pre-built in from the forever book and have them categorized based on your goals .
Squat Volume Day.
This workout was a heavy hitter. I started supersetting off the very first warm up set of squats. By about the 7th working set I was gassed, I pushed through and toasted my legs with some high rep lunges at the end .

I used the Jackson Pollock 7 point method using Skinfold Calipers . It’s a good way to track your personal progress overtime but I wouldn’t put any weight into the actual number it gives you as it is inaccurate to +/- 4 percent. It is a good way to track personal progress though. I think taking...
