    And if you can tolerate that, you could do SSB split squats to turn the intensity up without adding load. Pete Rubish primarily did that for his leg strength. Squatting really bothered something on him, his hips or shoulders or something, so he did HEAVY RFE Split squats most of the year and...

    I listen to the Vince Guaraldi Trio Charlie Brown Christmas album every time it snows 😄❄️

    Yeah if you wanted more protein for same calories like I mentioned then using a protein powder/RTD as creamer is definitely a great play. The reality of that or using the no-sugar coffee mate is that it’s not going to taste the same as a hi-cal creamer, whether that’s from high fat, sugar or...

    Oh the flu kicks my butt! I just realized eventually that 4-5 days lost once a decade is better than 1-2 annually. I realize I’m an outlier, but that’s what I’m working with.

    Yeah those are stupid. What’s best without kids is if a friend has a costume party at their house, or staying home to a movie to pass out candy (or just eating some 😝).

    Moderation is key. So is weighing your food so you know what you’re getting.

    I think this a lot before unracking a big squat set, genuinely. Sometimes you have to just jump and let your mind catch up with the fact that this is happening, so get on board. It’s also why having a setup ritualized is so important. You don’t need to focus on “starting”, just going through...

    You know Smont if you stopped wasting 120 calories on that bs creamer you’re using you could have another 30g protein or carbs. I use Coffee Mate Zero Sugar if I don’t drink it black, and it’s 10 calories per tbsp, basically just a gram of fat with artificial sweetener. And it’s good! I usually...

    Based on your response last weekend and especially your timeline being aggressive, no slow like mine, I really think that’s the right play. Just the one measured hi carb day every 7. DiPasquale set the Anabolic Diet up as a lifestyle to be used indefinitely largely. But in the Anabolic Solution...

    And it is very good you’re deloading, because it is normal to be kind of messed up the week after a meet. Extra emphasis on mobility and warmups should be made, even with low weights. Something will be tighter than it should be!

    Agree with Slim & Kleen. Both of their ideas are great. You need to practice what you want to be good at. If you have any aspirations at 700, don’t forsake the big lifts - you don’t have to lift them heavy, you can use whatever rep & total volume range you want. But if you want to get better at...

    I used to get flu vaccines until I realized I reacted particularly poorly - as a mechanic I’d have to take a full day off work to recover usually. They’d basically make me sick for a day or two. But I rarely got the flu anyway when I stopped getting them, so now I don’t. I haven’t had the flu in...

    Also, I think it’s good to have TMs where they are for now, but if you test and say bench 315, reset the TM down to that at least - don’t keep on with the inflated value. If not lower, like 300-305. That will bring bench volume back up some later on. Just a thought, figured I’d mention.

    Going over 8 reps on a squat AMRAP is mildly terrifying. Not because of the weight - because you know you CAN do it, and the expectation is you NEED to if you want to get better. So it’s going to be brutal, you’ll want to quit, and you need to lock in total resolve not to when it gets hard.

    Good-looking bench day! Enjoy the Halloween festivities with your family and church. We’ve hit a couple trunk or treats now; my son is 5 and loves his Green Power Ranger costume so much. Supposed to maybe rain a little Halloween morning but be clear for trick or treating! So he’s excited. Then...

    Holy crap! Now we are cooking. Congrats on a great set & awesome fun lifting opportunity - you should definitely go have fun! How much Tren do you like/tolerate? I get a lot out of extremely little, but I also can barely tolerate that.

    Thank you; hoping driving those up will keep muscle strong where I need it to make a bigger squat.
