Took 300/30 C-Psyn preworkout I and 200/1.5g C-L-tyro preworkout II. Haven't touched L-tyro since Feb but i didnt wanna take any more caffeine and thought i'd give it a shot. Bit of a risk but seems to be okay.
Kind of did a refeed. Maybe hit 200g if im generous with carb values. Maybe as low as 185g if i didn't. Can't be bothered because i reached my 8pm feeding window so whatever. If i didn't hit the spot, i'll just have to wait for another week..

Day 10 milestone down, well on track to get in shape by day 22. I think i can be DEXA  by end of diet at 15%. ive seen some impressive changed in body comp over the last couple of days. Altho the skinfolds suggest ive been losing fat from sites other than chest/trunk .. so i look kinda comical. Real skinny limbs from elbow/knees down. Fat af in the middle.

Notes:
Couldn't work out why the vol squats were so damn hard today compared to last week's but i looked up my log and saw last week i had that huge weekend of gluttony. Whereas this time i ate even less than on a normal dieting weekend. So. I'll take it. I also wanna make a note that today was the first time when i lifted up my shirt at the gym bathroom and saw someone who wasn't obviously obese looking back. Im still fat but i dont look like im over 20% bf..

Rest day. Dont feel like training today, not enough sleep.
Notes:
Ok so it seems ive had a whoosh, overnight lost a lotta weight. Skinfolds down too (not that ive been tracking with calipers but i feel them regularly by pinching with fingers). This gives me a lot of confidence that im now sub 20% bf. My goal is to get DXA'd at 15% or less. I think i can make it. The cut ends day 21. Dexa on day 22. Another 2 weeks lesgo!  Im pumped.

Thought this was interesting:
The effect of acute and chronic exercise on steroid hormone fluctuations in young and middle-aged men.

Quote
The current study demonstrates that this training intervention may help increase steroids hormones in middle-aged men and counteract the negative effect of age on TT and free testosterone.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/29378227

Sprint interval running increases insulin sensitivity in young healthy subjects.

Quote
In conclusion, sprint interval running improves insulin sensitivity and cholesterol profile in healthy subjects, and sprint interval running may be more effective to improve insulin sensitivity than continuous running at moderate intensity.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22540332
Remember todday mentioning this in my log ages ago. Would be interesting to get before and after T testing with sprint training. Defo wanna see what i can achieve while natural before i get too old.

Notes:
That's got to be the hardest squat workout ive done in ages. Each rep was a struggle and they all sucked for technique. I also think my heart is acting up but im still waiting for my new oximeter. Edit, ok figured out how to get the HR sensor on my phone working. It read 78bpm. Phew. Maybe it's low blood pressure altho i measured 80/120 postworkout and that seemed normal enough. idk.

i didnt watch those videos but i dont think an exaggerated pause is by any means necessary for doing a pause squat. The notable thing is that you slow down the eccentric intentionally and for a brief moment reach close to zero speed then continue the rep - nb, this is a continuation of the eccentric bc that kick you see at the bottom is a downwards motion before the reversal occurs. The key thing to keep in mind is that the pause itself happens before the eccentric completes
