Slight decreases in strength. RDL went from 365x8 to 385x3, but I think th 365x8 corresponds to a higher max, especially since I couldn't imagine pumping out 8 reps of it today.

We'll see how much strength I can keep on this cut. Of course I'm low on muscle glycogen and all that stuff from all-day fasts so my strength noticeably dropped almost immediately, but hopefully it doesn't drop much further.

Lots of volume today. Lowered the rest times on shoulder work from 90sec to 60sec since it's getting easy and I'm missing a lot of dumbells at my gym.

Cut starts Friday (today at the time of writing this). Planning an all day fast. Afraid my squat will suffer tomorrow due to not squatting since last week plus cutting, but oh well.

^ha, oh man. I dont get any sleep attacks (yet...). He likes to sleep by my feet. Sometimes he’ll plop onto my actual pillow above my head and share the pillow with me. Lately he has been sleeping in other parts of the house and now i miss it lol.

And he is definitely handsome!

adopted him at 4mo old! He's very chill. i can hold his paws and he wont pull them away, it feels really nice pressing into his "palm" and feeling his toes spread out and claws protract.
kinda trained him not to playbite and grab human hands. he still does it every now and then, but much less so, and is extremely gentle with his play biting with my hands now if it does it.

and yes, he purrs like a motor  ;D

Cable Ab Pull Downs
+105 x 3 >> 3min rests.

So I thought I was running out of time, but it turns out I left the gym an hour early... pretty annoying, but maybe this little "de-load" will turn out to be beneficial.
Squats felt weaker, RDLs got stronger.

In other news, I got my first cat.

Awesome to see my lifts keep going up! Hoping to squat 315x10 soon after which I think I should cut. Abs, though looking softer, are still visible. My main issue is putting on weight on my face which I hate

Added some volume with more lunges and goodmornings since I couldn't deadlift much without my straps
