Like half of my lifts were slightly up today! Could be after loading back up on creatine, sleeping well last night, and the slight refeed I had this week.

Tough not to over-eat as I near my goal.
Might be able to hit 184 on Dec 22nd if I stay strict with 0 calories on fasting days, and don't eat above maintenance on lifting days.

45º Incline DB Bench Press (Superset B)
65's x 5
80's x 3

Ok whoa, the 45 degreen incline DB press felt real nice on my pecs. Usually I go with a lower incline because otherwise I get too much front delt activation. But maybe after doinga low incline for like a year now, my upper pecs have caught up and so they can be activated with a higher incline. I think I'll try going for 37.5 degree incline next workout to see how it goes.

Ate a ton of junk food last night. So I had a bunch of water weight today.

On the positive side, at least I know I'm under 194lbs even when carrying a lot of water weight! I think I'd like to be 190lbs with water weight. Got invited to desi food again tomorrow night though, so we'll see...

Back up set on DB bench droped from 90x10 to x9 to x8. The cut may be getting to me. The other lifts are strong though. I also haven't been taking creatine in a while, however. That could also be to blame. Time to load up again.

Already reached my goal weight of 190lbs earlier than I thought I would. Nice. Maybe I'll drop a few more pounds - I'd like to be 190 carbed up. And I think I'll be carbed up with a week off from work coming up soon plus guests at my house!

Best part is barely any decrease in strength. RDL went up, in fact.

I think I should slow down the weight loss now. Maintenance on workout days, and eat only 1200cal max on fasting days (after my fast is done, of course).

- run x ABORT

wish you the best on your knee!

Not sure how much longer I can keep up the 315x5 squat and 385x6 RDL on this cut, but we'll see. I've lost a decent amount of weight so far without strength loss so i should still be happy with a slight decline in strength even as I head towards 190lb bw and below (dry fasted weight)

No change in weight. Probably due to eating all that desi food on 12/8 after my weigh in. chicken korma, garlic n cheese naan, rice pudding, mango lassi... couldnt resist

doing well today though. hopefully i go to bed without eating at all today

edit: just turned down a dinner invitation at a friend of a friend's pizza shop. all that free cheesy goodness....

Looks like a longer pause than the 495 @ 208bw on the previous page. Also a stronger ascent too  :highfive:

damn good work on that weight loss. :highfive:

lots of weight loss going on lately around here.

Thanks, almost a 45lb plate worth of weight, boggles the mind when you think about it!  :ninja:

When you put it that way, it’s insane!

Interesting stuff. Makes me want to play around with like 6 sets of 6 with stuff left in the tank every set. Would probably feel incredible after the workout too without having the fatigue, but having the endorphins etc

DB Bench dropped by a rep on the backup rep. Sucks especially after being carbed up from last night. However, the rest of my lifts were strong, so I chalk it up to not enough volume. Added in another backup set this workout.

Didn't want to eat last night but did anyway. So having only about 1200cal today and then fasting till after tomorrow morning's pre-workout meal. Hopefully I don't get invited to another dinner to mess this up lol
