Nah don't worry about some hypothetical better way, it doesn't exist. Your experience is more valuable because you know what works for your body and training. 1 week cut/bulk cycles are a bad idea though because you never give your body a chance to 'adapt' to fat loss / reduced calories which is what you need to burn fat efficiently. Keeping a weekly deficit but eating more calories around training helps you recomp and recover from training, which makes sense and seems to work well in practice.

Hey, nice ##'s! I want my pullup strength to be around yours at the end of my strength cycle, are those dead hang? Definitely think those higher intensity weighted pullup 3's and 5's are great, any more assistance you do for them? Notice you did your rows and pullups on the same day, i usually split mine up on different days but tried your scheme today. Worked decent but since i'm supersetting stuff the rest intervals didn't really work out.

Table is perfectly lined up here too, Windows 10 + firefox FWIW.
Getting enough protein in a normal grown up daily life is the biggest pain in the ass IMHO. One solution is cook massively when you find the time and frost it, microwave the portions you need when you need them. Other is find the junk foods stores/dishes that suit you well and are the least... damaging. Final solution, always have easy/fast sources in your house, to complement the normal lunch/dinner when needed. Boiled eggs (in 12s), peanuts, 1kg low fat yogurt pack, low fat chocolate milk, tuna cans, whole grain rusks. I guess you know already but sometimes its useful to share our... secret weapons haha!
