MrKleen73 replied to the thread KLEEN LIVING - A log about Life, Training, and Nutrition..Haha, nothing like waking up to admonish yourself! Nice, I am in good company! I am sure you are looking better than I am right now though. I still have a belly. -

Like.
Its so great. I told my wife last yesterday we could make a list of our weekend farm work thursday night at date night and she goes "yeah if there aren't any interruptions!" cause every time we go... -
I agree with @Hyde, I understand you are used to competing for the gold or nothing, but this is more you against yourself while hoping you are the strongest in your class, but the wins are against... -
Just sign up already! You could pick something and be ready in 6 weeks if you chose to. I mean, nobody is going to suddenly be more impressed with those numbers you listed than, say, 10% less than...

thats where I am in competition right now. If I get to where I have a clean 405/315/500 in training I might go for it now that I'm in masters class. I pulled up results on some meets this year...
-
Yeah, and while you see me recommending sometimes that it is not worth it, that is only if it is not a passion for you. I had a real passion to do it because i promised myself I would when I did...
-
@dapack might have history to share too! I remember back in the day he was doing BB before converting to fulltime PL, that must have been like 15+ years ago now?! man I agree with all that...
-
I echo what Hyde said, you can do both, if you spend a bit building up your numbers, and still keep direct arm, medial and rear delt work you will basically be training for both. Plus something...

Well, I'll caveat that about 4 years ago I had a lower back injury that sidelined me for a bit, that I've had reoccur at least 2-3x, only one time for any real stretch keeping me out of the gym...

Well Hyde said it better than I could. Being a better powerlifter will make you a better bodybuilder. Even if as you get older you want to move more towards bodybuilding …. Building that mass now...
-
I think people misunderstand powerlifting often, because they see some fat powerlifters that don’t look like bodybuilders - so they assume they don’t have much muscle, or aren’t concerned with...
-
In my experience it's a switch. You flip into BB or you don't. It's laser focused and it's absolute [emoji91][emoji91]. But for me my commitment means that four days a week I push my mental...
-
I think you're spot on with those weights based on how everything felt. I'd say they were about RPE 7-8 on squats, 8 on bench, and 6-7 on deads. I'm still a bit undecided, but there's both a PL...

Sorry to hear the new position wasn’t offered to you - definitely a good reminder that family is first, and they don’t care what you do for money as long as you keep them safe & are there for...

Man, watching everyone's weights climbing is making me nuts! I know I am also improving, but man watching you guys makes me a lil envious of how hard you all are able to push right now.

Yeah, those darn circadian rythms. They get you once you get used to eating at a certain time.
-
its clear I have not exercised much nutritional discipline, well at least not in terms of deficits, in a while. Our meal prep has been the same consistent formula I always do but by 9am today my...

Yeah, a HARD set of 12 is gutwrenching work. If you aren't gasping for air after a set of 12 squats you weren't working hard. OR you have AMAZING conditioning.

I think I'm starting to like squats. I found myself thinking about them in bed last night. I definitely like week 2 and 3, where I can focus on moving just singles and triples very well. having to...
-
first thing my brain did: Yeah this was about a 75 minute session for me so it clear my rest periods in between sets were longer than usual, but if I had 90 minutes to spare, I probably could...
-
This is a good session with the remaining ATG squats. As you saw in my log, my issue with squats was depth initially. So I am also consciously thinking about ensuring I go below my comfortable...
-
Great squats! Is it a possibility to wave in another variation on the BBB work? So if you feel like you’re getting shallow on the higher weights, wonder if incorporating some box squats would be...

Do they have a dextrose charged version? I think it's called Dayo and you **** your pants less.

My brother in Christ, say no more:

Time to bring back an intra workout energy source I think.

Squats 5 x 145, 185 3 x 220 5 x 235, 275 5 x 310 1 x 310 BBB - A2G 5 x 10 x 185 Accessories (Skipped. Gassed and short of time) Notes I was sorta mad at myself for racking it instead of...

This adds up, the prescription was 222.5 but I didn't bring my change plates with me. I could tell in the moment that while I could do them, 10 sets was going to be too much and a lower number...
