Yeah, we haven't discussed bodyfat percentage at all. Just going off of how things are looking. I would guess you are somewhere in the right range for bodyfat. My hope for the first one was to make it to 7% although I won't actually know if I hit it but what I think I should look like in that range. About a week and a half to keep losing some fat, hoping we can get another 2-3lbs down.
I was guessing you were in the 8% range, so I could see you drop 1% or 2% in the next week and a half. The really good thing is you’re holding on to your muscle, and you shouldn’t lose any over that week and half, so you should go in there shredded with good fullness.
Considering we just now added in 50mg Winny I definitely don't expect to see much in the way of muscle loss. Just a lot of hardening, and then once we get into actually adding carbs to my extremely depleted self things should really start looking good.
Not once have I noticed anything else in any of the pics he posted

Your Internet game is still stronk.
Yeah that is what he was saying too. That the winny would keep the size and help me fill out once carbs were added.
It is just a decorative hanging light we had made for my daughter once when we were on a trip to the Riverwalk in San Antonio. She changed all the colors in her room and didn't want to toss it so she asked me to use it in there for the dogs as a night light so we can see our way to the lil ones pen in the dark.
LMFAO!!!Not once have I noticed anything else in any of the pics he posted

Oh yeah, definitely have cut down on weights used. Pretty much all sets start over 10 reps now, and i try to stay to a 1-2RIR closer to 2 RIR when possible. Most things are done in the 12-15 range some of it up into the 15-20 range. Just trying to keep training intensity and volume high enough to keep the muscle I have built on my frame without pushing as hard as i would be if truly chasing hypertrophy. The body is simply just to compromised at this point to push that hard productively and the risk isn't worth the reward to push any harder.
Yeah, I think something just popped out and back into place when I rolled my back out after. It took my breath away again when it popped back in then started feeling a bit better. So, I assume that was it. Just trying to control inflammation now so it doesn't get worse, or more inflamed with the office move. Unfortunately I won't be able to get to my chiro before I have to fly out to Denver in the morning. So kind of going on a wing and a prayer here that everything will hold together over the next week.
I may look for a massage therapist up in Denver if I need one. Not sure where I would squeeze that in right now, but if the pain kicks up I will definitely do something to alleviate it. Right now though, me an ibuprofen are close friends.
Yeah I think it says 2-3 days of ice holding. So freezing my chicken and beef in there overnight should really do the trick to keep everything nice and cold. I also called my hotel and asked them to put a microwave in my room so I can heat up my food. Things are coming together!
Yep, should do the trick nicely! This cooler also has what it calls cold packs at the bottom to hold more cool in. So freezing the bag is recommended.I think thats a dynamite plan. especially since the food IS the ice
Thanks Kat, I am giving it all kinds of hell!
Sounds good thanks for the recommendation! Some big changes here to the plan. We are refeeding the next 3 days, averaging 500g of carbs each day. Unfortunately I am traveling so this sudden dietary change has tossed a good money wrench at me. Trying to backfill carbs with karbolyn where possible and just make it happen. At work today so getting all the different carb sources together is not going to happen. So going to do my best to macro match as much as possible today and tomorrow and hopefully Wednesday I can get a whole day of exactly what we are looking for food wise. Either way, for right now we are carb loading. I am 100 grams in and about to have to make another shake. We have a mandatory celebration dinner tonight which kind of sucks because I would rather go train while I have the carbs in me. I may go find one that is open late.
Yeah 500g a day for 3 days is gonna add up. I am nice, full and tight right now.damn dude that's a LOT of rice for carbs on a budget
When I was eating in a surplus I would grab the bowl of rice, and pour a sugar syrup of some type on it (such as bbq sauce) preWO. But even still, I'm talking about like 150-200g at MAX... 500g is a good heavy hit!
It worked out well, I ended up telling them I had a workout scheduled and with my contest coming up I didn't think it was best for me to go to the dinner when I should be training. They were a little bummed but they understood and then after I opted out everyone else was like I am so tired do we really need this dinner? LOL So they just did the planned happy hour at 3 and we closed down the office at 5 for the day. So I was able to train. I got one hell of a pump. I definitely needed some salt though.
Yeah, I bet you do have veins popping up everywhere with the extra carbs, and the pumps will probably get sick.
Oh yeah, and definitely looking bigger, my close are filling out for sure. I can't wait to see how it all looks 10 days from now after some water manipulation.Yeah, I bet you do have veins popping up everywhere with the extra carbs, and the pumps will probably get sick.
Pump must be insane
Yeah, it got pretty ridiculous.
Looking full and vascular…..you’re definitely in Beastmode.
Thank you Sir!
Damn straight, got them Broccoli Boys back there making me some sour dough!!!
To be fair, right now they should be looking pretty stellar, nice and full of glycogen. I agree though, I was worried my arms would start to look too small but this far I have been impressed with the size and shape I have maintained.
Agreed, not too noticeable in the shots, I could definitely feel it for sure. I have also been steadily pushing things out today. I am sure the gut clearance is needed as I was blocked up a little earlier this week. Looking at these pics I am guessing I would have looked a bit tighter sometime yesterday probably sitting around 200ish for a really nice and dry look. Definitely getting excited for this!!!!If that’s distended, you’re doing just fine
If you want I can post some distended pics so Kleen has a benchmarkIf that’s distended, you’re doing just fine
Haha, be feeling likeIf you want I can post some distended pics so Kleen has a benchmark
That’s funny….and actually would have been a good meme.
It’s a pregnant 6 pack
No, I totally get that analogy.This might sound odd but it’s like driving by a house a couple times a week as the owner puts in sweat equity, constantly noticing minute changes in detail and massive progress all at the same time. If the bones are good ya know???…
Speaking of bones, my green “guy” just left
Thanks Segan!
