Notes:
Hit the magic 80.0kg milestone today. Never would have expected that when i started this cut like 8 weeks ago but there you go. 4 more days, going to give myself some room to grow under 80kg now, lets aim for like sub 79.5kg monday morning.

140p@80 is a 1.75xbw pr, albeit first time ive done pause squats with a belt.

193 -> 176 in 2 months.... Wow. Thats wild. I bet you are shredded now. I want to do something similar for my tourney in early september, any advice? Literally 193 right now, if i was 176 with even close to my current strength and peaked athleticism i feel like i would be unstoppable. Do you think you are faster + better verts than you were a month ago?

i was too ashamed to take before photos but i wish i had now. have videos on insta though so can kinda do side-by-side comparison. i think i started around 200 and im 176 now. if it was for getting the flu i bet i would have a bit more strenght and muscle and cud have got some lifetime PRs for vertical. but still happy with the results. want to peak vert in the 2 weeks following end of diet.  so far i haven't seen any great promise of vertical gains tho. i mean i was hitting PR level on vertical at 95kg in feb at about 35" .. and in the last few weeks im struggling to get 32" with a 5kg vest. still lets see what happens when i increase calories to maintenance and let some fatigue dissipate (i do daily weight vest walking which does tire out the legs chronically).

even odds you come in under 12%  :lololol:

amended: 70% you're under 15% but question the dexa's accuracy, 30% you're over 15%.

I got 14.2% lol. suprising. Means i have 65.8kg lean mass and 10.9kg fat mass. well .. there we go.

no questioning the dexa? crap, i should have stuck with my original prediction.  :P

what does this knowledge change for you?

Notes:
Got blood tests done this morning. Feeling pretty average because i limited carbs yesterday and im due for a refeed, thankfully, doing that today.  So yea maybe im more glycogen depleted than i thought. i could not do a 5th rep for the life of me. Struggled on every single set to get 5.

Pretty awesome carb up, almost ate an entire loaf of bread. Maybe went a bit too high on fat tho. All good.

No caffeine today. Shud be interesting! Wasn't got a pretty good headache in the evening and it stayed until i fell asleep. Ate a package of cookies and some chocolate. Not proud of it but long story short, that girl i mentioned earlier, i managed to keep her interest for another week but yesterday night she texted to say take care. Have not dealt well with it, she was probably the one but i wasn't present and blew the chance.
