Yes Sir, I agree!
Yesterday I did my hour walk at lunch, and I had a large bowl of high protein turkey chili with some rice for dinner. I fasted all day other than that, and a little cream in my...
Agreed, and the funny thing is you know hunger isn't an issue for me. It is more about breaking the bad food choice habits I allowed myself to develop over the last 12-18 months. I can sit around...
As I type this, I am hungry. This is good because I know it’s the right time to be hungry for the right intent, and it’s moving me towards my goals of leaning out and competing at 220 soon.
Hade a nice leg session over the weekend.
I find myself going back and forth with my fitness goals, well more my training. While I desire to improve some of my body weight work and incorporate...
I think I had over amped myself for that set, it was a plethora of newbie mistakes... could also be me just getting used to challenging weights again, but I was very prepared for that set, great...
Nice work….. and as far as the 7 reps on 160 where you lost your balance, it counts because you got them. And sometimes having to reset like that for balance is harder because you have to get back...
thats typically what I do, I think our 45s are closer to 2" though. it does give a good hamstring engagement. I have also been known to throw a green band under it when feeling a little extra saucy.
That was a 42 min session from clock in till heading back to locker room but tbh I'm not sure what I'd do with more time today other than cardio. That hit the shoulders pretty damn good.

Throw a 45lb plate under your feet, just something small, no more than 1”. Keeps the pull fairly identical hip position but will definitely pay out. Deficits are ideal for volume work; that’s how...
I have still not fully wrapped my head around it tbh. like I mentioned a BBB 5 x 10 at 200lbs on deads seems like nothing, so I might make them deficits. its not like a killer 60 minute session...
yeah I was thinking about that today. 5 x 10 x 200lb deadlifts in a BBB EMOTM = 10,000 extra lbs moved in around 5-6 mintues. On OHP 5 x 10 x say 115 = 5,750 extra lbs thrown overhead in 5-6...
Well BBB does a LOT - all volume is not equal, and compound work counts for a lot more than isolations. You can’t compare squat volume to reverse hyper work, try as some people might to believe...
This is just interesting to me. it comes back to that discussion of volume vs weight for hypertrophy vs strength. clearly my volume has been down, but my weights up and I'm getting good...
yeah this app has some interesting graphs, one I was looking at this morning is tonnage moved per session, and as my tonnage moved has decreased (mostly due to lack of time to hit bbb/accessories)...
Wildcard; just working up singles some when you feel extra good once in a while.
You don’t do it often or most weeks, and don’t let it get in the way of your accessories that are responsible for...
He doesn't mention it in the original 531 book I have so I pulled up the canned google response for you. Basically I don't take Jokers unless I smash my working AMRAP and feel good enough to reach...

Solid lunch sesh. We finished with the belt squats basically to...
sometimes carrying a few extra lbs of flab just doesn't matter when everything else looks awesome in the right shirt lol. My wife said the same thing like a week ago. I've only put on a few lbs...
I was getting undressed to hit the shower yesterday and one of the dudes was hanging out a little too long but I knew him and I was asking where he's going next week when they shut down the place...
3 wheels is looking like a potential 2026 milestone!!! In a perfect world I'd love for my next PR (anything over 305) to be a joker rep. I'll just maintain current training until it either burns...
I'll be in the Greenville/Greer area weds/thurs then Friday I might head up to NC past Charlotte, or west to Maggie Valley... haven't decided yet. I have a little free time before I fly back.
thats good logic. I've just grown into such a sissy when it comes to air travel. I'm looking at about 10hr day since there are no direct flights from SEA to SC. PNW is beautiful but we are so far...
