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.

Volume day. And because i skipped the EOD workout yesterday (recovery lower, volume upper) , i will combine both upper and lower volume today. Going to carb up and grow some muscle.
BS 6x120(p0), 1x135p, 1x142.5, 1x130, 3x127.5, 5x125, 5x122.5,

Back Xtn 3x6x107.5(PR)
BP 1x90p, 5x75, 5x77.5, 5x80, 5x77.5

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..

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.

BP 5x70, 5x82.5, 5x80, 5x77.5
Back Xtn 3x6x110(PR)

Notes:
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..

Notes:
So ive been talking to a girl for about a week. She is gorgeous, smart, funny and seems into me as well. She wants to talk on the phone (we've spoken once for about an hour but that's not enough for her) but my mind is mush from the daily 24 hour fasts and long cut ive been on. Told her to wait til sunday but she's getting impatient and thinks i'm strange. Was thinking of extending the cut a bit longer til the DEXA scan. Not sure. My mind isn't that clear..

Dude talk to the girl. Eat carbs if you need to. Get some pre-workout into you if required. There are more important things in life than cutting fat and a "gorgeous, smart, funny and seems into me as well" girl is one of those things.

Notes:
Looks like my metabolism is starting to tank. Half a degree drop is about 5% reduction in metabolism, so im looking at about 10% drop in the last couple of days. Will defo end this diet as scheduled if this doesn't recover but my sleep lately has been awful so maybe it's because of that. Anyway.
