BW: 78.8kg


Notes:
Horrible workout. Maybe the deficit is catching up with me. Maybe it's lack of sleep. Maybe it's stress from having my heart broken (lol). Idk but that was stupid. Will try again saturday after some rest.

What if there as an adult version of a two week training camp vacation...  Probably not a huge market...

this is actually an incredible idea.

Yeah. Agreed. If you refined the recipe down into a solution which worked well 90% of the time in a brief period of time, it would be a hit. People would flock from all around the world. Lot's of ppl with (athletic) dreams but no way to achieve them.

haha fair callout. I was going to upload a video but it looks like i disconnected my HDD when i plugged in my new SSD cos i didnt have enough power ports (at the time) to keep both powered. I guess i'll just have to take one when i get the 200kg PR though

straps are great, cheap and easy to use. being preoccupied with hook grip is just dumb ego unless you're trying to compete in PL and even then training with straps makes sense a lot of the time.

im not sure. i think last time when i did RDLs i just used DOH alll the way up to 140kg worksets then i switched to hook grip and kept going up to 200kg ish. My grip kept pace. but now that im rebuilding, i prob shud have started with DOH worksets up to 150kg and then switched over? i didnt though, i just use DOH for 110kg warmups then i go to hook for the 150kg warmup. I'll figure it out, it's not too much of a hassle cos im still making my hamstrings a bit sore anyway.

but yeah i need to get myself unstuck and then stay unstuck!

BW: 79.2kg (LPR!) getting close to my goal weight of a stable post-cut bodyweight of <79kg. and it's the morning of day 8. Was thinking 77.5kg on day 21 is probably a good place to come off the cut. Then maintain and get strong as fuck. Actually when i say maintain, i mean a recomp cos i will likely still be too fat to stick at that bodyfat%. But recomp just means a smaller deficit anyway.

balled pickup ... lots of games .. won most of them ... i beasted .. finished up wiht a game of 21 which i won. sunk like 4 3pts .. give me some space and im hitting that shit allll day. feels good man. cudnt dunk but i dont care, id rather perfect my jumpshot wooho.

when im practising shooting 3, i'll hit the first 6 in a row, then start to miss cos fatigue. but i will improve on that as i get stronger. then i'll be hitting 8 before missing, hopefully.

i did a dream like move. not fucking hakeem, i mean the word dream. went up for a layup on the left side, drew the defender into a block, drifted thru the air and came out the the other side and laid it in around the rim. everyone was like woah, some guy said "hangtime" and i cudnt believe i pulled it off!

Grip strength is related to CNS fatigue isn't it?

local or global? i dont think global. I think if i put more on the bar instead of 150kg warmup i prob get it. It's that 2nd set. My hook grip is weak though. I need to figure out how to get myself unstuck. At least i shud maintain 2xbw RDL worksets... but 180kg is a better goal given i i was almost up to 200kg around the comp..

it's my hook grip, or prob my brain going nope this shit is too heavy for you, and my grip bails.

BW: 79.7kg / 175.71 lb (LPR!!!!)

FInally broke thru the 80kg barrier. On the start of day 6 which is nice. Last night i was freaking out that i wudnt be able to train well today because i felt like shit .. so i had roast pork, a cheese burger, protein shake and a frozen chicken microwave meal. Hopefully that was enough to get me recovered enough to LPR today, squats.

Mate how much do the skinny comments kill you. I'm the same. Lost 3-4kgs and people start commenting. Only problem is to look huge in clothing I need to be 100+  no one has ever called me huge before and I've been as high as 98

i know we have to remember everyone looks "smaller" or "small" when cutting . muscles aren't as filled with glycogen, they get deflated and look smaller. We can hope that once you stop cutting and everything fills back with carbs you look bigger...

From 18-13% bodyfat when you cut you just look smaller especially in clothes. I've had the same thing happen to me. When I'm losing weight people say I look smaller

true. someone in shape looks bigger without clothes than with. little consolation when 99.99% of the time you're wearing clothes though.

What I never understood is people having to comment on how you look. How about you shut the fuck up and mind your own business? How's that for an idea? So, when someone says anything about how I look now, I tell him that. Doesn't matter who he is.

i dont take it as a slight .. just ppl sharing their observations. like i said, one person says it you can go whatever. but when a dozen ppl say it, you prob shud listen and revise
