250 x 5 and then 215 x 4 .... damn and I thought my work capacity sucks.  :trolldance:
Congrats on the PR's tough... that 3 plate bench isn't too far away.

Yea and I even rested 2min after the 250x5  :ninja:

lol! :d

seems to happen easier with upper body push based exercises IMHO .. they can create some significant mental drain.

pull-ups are the worst for me... no endurance there. First set I can do 13-15 reps without too much of a struggle, second set I'm down to 9 on the 4th set or so I'm often lucky to get 5

Was a little sick this week and sleep deprived. Missed two lower body days... ah man I know I'm going to dread getting back up to 405x10 RDL and 370x3 squats...

Cut everything to one set because i felt like ass and very sore/achy. Surprised myself matching my bench PR, pull up PR, and hitting a new PR in seated cable rows.

Was too tired. Firgured I'd throw in lateral raises with legs the next day.

Really happy about my bench still improving nearly every single week! Still in a bit of disbelief that I'll probably have a 300lb max in a couple of weeks. 315 would be sick though, but I won't bank on it for fear of disappointment ha.

Been so lazy to update my log. I missed 2 or 3 leg days, and mostly just did deloads for upperbody. Combination of being tired, lazy, no time at the gym, etc.

It's all good though, no major strength losses or anything :)

But it's feb 1st and I'm officially starting my cut today and tracking calories! See next post

Will update later.



Doing intermittent fasting to help with appetite control. If the touted other benefits of it happen to be true, then that's cool too.

Also going to try eating while sitting on the floor like many cultures do. Apparently it helps you feel full earlier/on less food. I see some articles claiming this, but can't find a damn source for it. But it doesn't hurt to try.

Well... been too lazy to update. And I didn't keep up with my cut. Hopefully I stay consistent this time!

Is there an easy way to line up my calorie table perfectly?

Heheheh.... been way too lazy to update. Missing workouts here and there. I know I keep saying "starting today I'm cutting" but... to make sure of it, I'm fasting today, ramadan style. I have a day to make up since I missed a day due to sickness last year. So I know for sure I won't cave in and eat before sundown - I never caved in before for ramadan, i've only caved in for general IF.
 
Had a banana and water at about 5am. Also I like to write out my burned calories ahead of time based on what I plan to do. Weighed 207lbs yesterday morning after a morning pee. I hope to take a few before pictures today at the gym.
