Day 98 - part 2 CHEST - inclines

And then this evening as the sun went down I hit incline BB bench press. Felt pretty tight but managed to get done what I wanted.

Yeah, I've always got energy. Hard to harness it in sometimes. My recovery has always been pretty good too.
Thanks!

holy miniscule calories......why??
Click to expand...
Well, just trying to shred up right now on this last 2 week run on clen. 1900 might be a bit low...
The old thing is, I weighed this morning and am at 190. 3lbs heavier than when I was at 3500 cals. Granted I'm 4 weeks into my TestE. I thought my bf would've been a little lower than 11-11.5% though. Hopefully the Proviron shows up next week.

Maybe I should bump cals up and see if I shred any...
 
all goes back to: what are the goals??
you trying to build, lean & clean? 1900cals is not the way to do it..
now if you were hardcore cutting, doing a show or something, and were in latter stages of that endeavor....maybe
the other facet here is, it's fine to stay lean and all that, but test E is not real conducive to getting all chiseled & striated either....there is some aromatization of course, water retention - but that is the environment for GROWTH! and to grow, of course you need adequate calories

in the end, 10-12% bf is nothing to sneeze at in regards to being cut - this is wayyy better than the average joe, let alone the 50y/o average joe..it is also a nice range to reside in which to add new muscle
 
The goal was to try and get below 10% during the early stages of starting the Test E and then by week 6 start increasing cals back up to the 3500-4000 range. If I don't get there that's fine as I'm perfectly happy where I'm at. No desire to compete, you guys can have that stress!

okay..
I would go no lower than 2500cals personally - and preferably would have you no lower than 3kcals if I were structuring things for you
THEN, we slowly add in cals and build from there..

Well, since I trust your judgement better than my own, a few more hundred sounds pretty good right now! I'll bump up to 2500 and go from there then. Dinner is already looking better now...lol

I do plan to be at around 3500-4000 by thanksgiving!

Heavy aas PR. You're a beast.

Big numbers... that Hack Squat PR is something else.. Curious how long rest periods are between sets typically?
