lol strong this.

it's a rush. it's a boner kill when you know you're leaving a rep or two in the tank

Agreed on all fronts... I've always had the classic BB mindset of "if its not sore, its not enough". I'm sure with a new plan this will really "feel" better on all the joints and such and allow my recovery to improve as well, obviously leanding to GAAIINNZZZ
 
Dilemma here guys. So i buy the birds eye steamable brown rice. The serving size is 136g. Not sure if that is the frozen weight or the after cooking weight!

I weighed one bag frozen and it weighed 291g(bag and all)

Then i threw one in the microwave and it came out as 244g(bag and all)

now rice is something i'd recommend measuring dry and then cooking yourself. for one a bag of uncooked rice is dirt cheap, two it'll be more accurate measured dry. the issue with cooked rice is how much water is absorbed and held can alter the calorie content. whereas measuring dry, it'll be exactly the same everytime.

that's how i've done it all this time, and that's how my coach explains it to me. plus it takes only 20-30 mins to make some damn good fresh rice

Yea but that would defeat the purpose of buying the convenience of the steamable bags. I edited my above post about the weight!
 
eh then go for it, but for pure accuracy measuring dry is the best route

i'd assume measuring it outside the bag cooked is what they intend

So, for instance if 136g is the frozen weight, around what would the cooked weight measure be? When cooked it, it weighs less.
 
Swolbraham said:
@Invalid Link Removed have you gone above 750mg PA?

Debating going to 1g, 500 pre wo and 500 with dinner or post workout
Click to expand...

Nah, it's been working well @ the label dosages and the Micro-PA I was using is friggin expensive. Lulz. King is pretty expensive as well relative to typical supplements.
 
Swolbraham said:
okay and you;re doing all 750mg pre? @Invalid Link Removed
Click to expand...

Yup. Honestly I don't see a reason to do the post workout dosing. The half life of PA is pretty long (5+ hours) so I don't see how it would make sense to supplement post workout unless for some reason you are training for like 5+ hours :P

So according to Dr. Wilson, minimum of 450 mg's up to 1.5 grams (I think) are all doses which would yield benefits. Obviously no ceiling has been stumbled upon yet, but going from what has been discussed, 450 mg's is probably the minimum dosing you would want to use ASFAIK for appreciable benefits.

It's always gonna weigh a little less cooked vs frozen cuz you'll lose some water to steam.

It really makes very little difference tho since the weight changes are mostly water and there's no caloric value tied to that part

Leg day today. Getting some practice with the "one rep left" method and lowering the weights significantly to focus on form.

Invalid Link Removed

Really felt a good workout even with the lower weights as I added a lot of slower reps and pauses in the top/bottom positions and slow eccentrics.

As usual after leg day when all I want is to not bend over I start dropping every single thing I pick up onto the floor. Why??!!
 
Swolbraham said:
lol eccentrics for legs are my favorite. brutal
Click to expand...

I love/hate the leg extension machine at my gym for these and partial reps... The machine is a big ass leg press/ext combo thing and it's like 3ft off the ground so getting in and out of it is like the scene from the wolf of Wall Street with the lambo ha. Then when you drop down and hit the floor it's almost impossible not to collapse. I've wiped out hard more then once

I thought it would be but it was entertaining enough that it didn't feel nearly as long as it really was.

lol definitely entertaining, just two and half hours was a bit overkill. could definitely chop some stuff out.

lol at Jonah Hill in that movie, he was incredible
 
Simple and quick breakfast, love this ish. Peanut butter oats, and protein of choice is always delicious

Videos aren't working bro
 
There ya go, working now.
 
Meadows rows look solid. Seems you are getting good ROM but maybe use 25lb plates for even better ROM. I also like to grab the bar furthest away from the plate (more towards your leg).
