Day 47 of Ostar1ne
Sorry for the delay in posting guys, things have been a bit hectic at work, and then I took a four day weekend for Labor DAY
However, I DID NOT miss any lifting days!
No huge PRs lately, but not real strength loss either. I'm feeling like my calories are a bit over what they need to be right now, so dropping them down a bit to try to finish this out a bit more lean. As of last count, I had right at two weeks left on Sunday.
I hit my full range of Big Threes last week and so far this week, with my standard accessories. This morning, Deadlifts felt a bit off, I am cjhalking it up to loss of sleep last night. I'm actually not sure how many reps I hit today, as I kept hitting them after small rests (20 seconds or less) after a bit. It was 3+ week on my 5/3/1 cycle. The reps looked something like this:
Barbell Deadlift
145 X 5
180 X 5
215 X 3
250 X 3
285 X 3
320 X 3
320 X 1
320 X 2
320 X 3
At least that's what I remember. I may have done another sinlge, I should have written it down as I did it. Oh well, LOL.
Right hip felt a little "off" when I warmed up for high rep BBB Squats, so I just did high rep Hack Squats instead:
Hack Squat Machine
Weight listed is plates only. I know, the weights are pathetic
20 X 10
20 X 10
25 X 10
25 X 10
25 X 10
Rest time was 1:30 between sets.
After that, I was going to do Leg Extensions, but I was in a hurry and all the machines were occupied. I called it a day.
No lethargy really at this point. Still, have great vascularity and good muscle fullness/hardness. I think strength will pick back up before my run is over. Still not really feeling "shut down", and the boys seem to be OK thus far.
Still waiting to hear back from the endo, might call today. My PCP sent a referral to them, as I mentioned I wanted a comprehensive panel.
