Looking shredded and veins are popping!Progress Photos :
We are almost at about the midpoint of the log: A good time for progress photos
I seemed to have leaned out a lot over the course of the log. Especially considering that the scale has only really moved a couple of pounds .Looking shredded and veins are popping!
Agreed! Sometimes the scale doesn't tell the entire picture when it comes to cutting.I seemed to have leaned out a lot over the course of the log. Especially considering that the scale has only really moved a couple of pounds .
Those deads plus the RDLs and pendlay rows?? You've gotta be toasted! Nice work.
Hey brother, I apologize .... I know you've probably already said ...Weekly weigh in report
Hey brother, I apologize .... I know you've probably already said ...
What method are you using to figure your body fat ?
I used the Jackson Pollock 7 point method using Skinfold Calipers . It’s a good way to track your personal progress overtime but I wouldn’t put any weight into the actual number it gives you as it is inaccurate to +/- 4 percent. It is a good way to track personal progress though. I think taking progress photos is your best way to really see differences . I didn’t really think I looked that different from the start of the log to the one month progress photos until I saw the actual photos side by side .Hey brother, I apologize ....

Things have been going really well in here! My recovery has been very good between workouts and I’ve been waking up before my alarm everyday despite the brutal workouts . I have definitely been enjoying my run so far and although my deficit is small, it’s still great to be having optimal recovery in a deficit.Keep it up brother!

Heavy Shoulder Press Day
Woke up early today , was at work before 5 am , slipped out of work a bit early and hit the gym . Solid workout today . I really grilled my back at the end with some Romanian Deadlifts .

I finished up the workout with 4 sets of hanging leg raises to failure .
I did it right , the trick is to stick to mostly meat and vegetables . I would say 80 percent of what I ate was prime rib roast, it was so good I went back for plate after plate . There was also some very good lamb and honey ham. This was served from a a server who cut the meat right off the roast in front of you . On top of this I had egg Benedict maybe about 6 eggs but did not eat the English muffins it was served on. I also had a few pieces of Canadian Back bacon. They had some very good Brussel sprouts/ mixed vegetables I loaded up on for some fibre .For desert I has some very nice cheeses with a few bowls full of pineapple/ blueberries/ strawberries . I didn’t eat anything today that wasn’t a whole food but probably consumed around 5-6 thousand calories . I am still full well into the evening . I had a protein shake to take my second serving of vector/ vitamins with but don’t think I will eat again until tomorrow around lunch time .Enjoy that cheat meal brother! Much deserved
Honestly, I think it’s just being so light , I remember when I would go for jogs when I was 225-230 and it took me a long time to work up to being able to run a consistent 5 k . Just getting 1 k was hard when I weighed that much .Awesome work and then just casually run a 3k no big deals
Alphabuild and recomp 20 would definitely be a nice set up. I would follow a long on that log!Any suggestions on what people want me to try out and log ?
This is a good idea . I will do them with a safety squat bar in my next training cycle !Assuming that rack pulls and maybe something like good mornings might help at the top for additional accessory work?
What's the typical rep range per set?Above is my layout for the anchor cycle that I will be beginning on Monday
For the main lifts it will be triples and for the accessory main lift it will be fives . For the leg accessory work, I will be working in the 15-20 rep range and for all the push/ pull accessories I will be sticking around 5-10 reps.What's the typical rep range per set?
