My diet is very rich in protein and good fats, and carbs post workout.  I definitely eat very good.  Lots of seafood, chicken and steak.  However, my body doesn't seem to like to burn all this fat I have around the belly, chest, and mid body.  My legs are starting to look like olympic lifters, but I have so much fat stored up in upper body.

The problem is, the second I start to eat on a calorie deficit, my strength goes down.  For example, I was able to do 5 x 255 x 3 full paused 2 sec squats.  Then, I lost 3 lb in a week, and I could barely do 1 set of that now... on the 2nd set or 3rd set, I'd fail at rep 4 or 5 and get pinned.

i had the same issue.. what i had to do was:

1) eat high protein + moderate./high fat + low carb throughout most of the week <-- increased egg intake, ~2 cheat days
2) increase my low intensity cardio (long walks (1-2hr) etc)
3) reduce overall workload in weight room -> shorter workouts (1 or more workouts of ~30min or less)
4) minimize milk intake
5) don't perform intense cardio

regardless tho, sometimes it is better to just deal with the fat and add lots of real muscle.. much easier to strip fat off once you add alot of muscle.. but that approach obviously isnt going to work too great if you're in a need of high performance right now.

peace

wtf?

i strained my rib sleeping all f'd up.




something i posted on my fb, i like it, glad a few others do too:

I keep hearing this from sour republicans: "Tradition in America is died." Au Contraire, the exclusion party was soundly defeated by the inclusion party. As America's core principles of inclusion continue to grow, so to will personal liberties & more peaceful foreign policy. I think it all boils down to this: During one of the republican primaries, Wolf asked the candidates to raise their hand if they believe in evolution. I don't think a single candidate raised their hand, which is absolutely beautiful because this is becoming a perfect example of the evolutionary process. Adapt or die. Unfortunately for the republican party, they have taken on the ideology of a christian fundamentalist state. This spits in the face of evolution, personal liberties, and inclusion. Their party will fall victim to what they deny, science & Darwin.

R.i.P republican party. <-- it was god's plan!

probably the worst idea of my life: waiting until before bed to lift @ 7am

horrible workout heh..

hit bw @ 10 for neutral grip chins and single arm db overhead press: 60 lb @ (R=13, L=7), (R=15, L=7)

never doing that again.

decent w/o.. planned on being a little stronger than i was tho.

bw = 186
soreness = null
aches/injuries = null , after workout: knees a bit achy/tight + shins achy
fatigue = moderate

SESSION:

S1: SSBAR squat: 165 @ 1 x 10, 215 @ 1 x 10, 235 @ 1 x 8, 215 @ 1 x 7
S1: single arm DB bench: warmups, 80 lb @ (R=4,L=5), (R=7,L=4), 70 lb @ (R=15.5, L=12)
S1: single arm db row: 80 lb @ 2 x 13, 100 lb @ 1 x 8


very happy with DB bench.. another session where my left arm defeated right for one set, good stuff... dno what happened during that first set though with 80's, right just collapsed lmao.

pr'd left on 70 lb db bench... and right/left with 80's on set 1 (L) and set 2(R)

squats felt heavy/weak.

added lots of mass over my rest days, pretty weird.

Obama~@!$!@
