Proper rest day today to gear up for tomorrows volume with 5x127.5kg. Oh and this is the lowest ive weighed in a while. Actually believe it too cos all skinfolds etc are smaller and i look leaner. My concern is that with the time im going to spend specialising on squats, i may get fatter. But have to be vigilant. I'm ok not getting any leaner while accumulating squat strength, i just dont want to get fatter while doing so. That's much less unclear.

Fucking hungry today. Ive eaten all my daily intake for the day and im still starving. If i wasn't gifted with these genes for storing fat i'd def go to town on some icecream or something

It's okay to eat the occasional dirty carb up .. the saturated fat fills out (the intramuscular triglyceride fat of) muscles better and you look better the next morning. That's what the bodybuilders claim anyway lol.  Great job on the cut. I think you should take a maintenance break and make a new bodyfat% setpoint. You can always cut more later down the line but making this stable is important for keeping the fat off later down the line. Always the part i struggled with tho.

It's a reunion

I had a lot of aches and pains until i increased fat intake (among other measures) which i think improved T levels which lead to less aches and pains all round. But not sure if that would apply in your case

Notes:
Wanted to +2.5kg the 3x140 PR i set last time. Failed the 3rd rep though, similar failure mode to the 160kg for those who saw that on my insta. Gna go back for 2nd session latre tonight but i feel week today. I think i messed up during this week and it's cost me. First mistake was a stretch i did on tuesday which is best done with a partner. My back hasn't felt right since. 2nd i messed up reading this stupid daily squatting literature (hello training ADHD) which led to me explore the stupid idea of a training minimum (i picked 120kg). I shouldnt have done those doubles with 120kg during the week, they achieved nothing and didnt allow me enough rest to be fresh for PRs today. So disappointed with that. But anyhow

also, we should really move this thread to the http://www.adarq.org/strength-power-reactivity-speed-discussion/ subforum

lmk.

good call, yep happy for that!
