I agree with the above. But if you re-read my schedule you will see that i will be out playing bball 3 times a week, so i don't understand why we are talking about what i should do when i can't play basketball and do an intensity program, i said i will be playing lots of bball and want to do a GPP program.

Also, i gotta say it, your persistence on the things you suggest is a bit , ehm, above average. You remember things and then you are out trying to convince people to do it , with lots passion too. You now (re)discovered the texas method and suddenly all the forum has to do it. And i didn't even disagree, i said i like that approach and i plan to do it, i just had two ( extremely similar ) approaches in my mind. Frankly , it is a bit tiring and annoying to have an extended discussion in my journal about if Bill Starr or Tx or 5/3/1 are most effective or more simple. And i have seen you do it in many other journals too. When you discovered or re-discovered donkey bonces, hip thrusts, high bar, halfs , this 1 1/2 squats etc, you get kinda obsessed. Don't get me wrong,  I don't  question your motives, you are trying to help people and you genuinely believe that this is the best advice. It is just a friendly note, i think you are over-doing it, which is serving your initial purpose bad too, like insisting too much will make people feeling negative and fed-up towards what you are saying.
Or , all this could be my own totally distorted and subjective perception, you are just fine and i am an old itchy easily-irritated weirdo, so nevermind.

Looks like bodyweight is going down, even though i upped my caloric intake. Makes sense, daily drinking is replaced with daily working out. On the bright side, it feels like it goes away from the right places, i think the love handles are finally shrinking.
Not changing anything yet anyway, gonna give at least 1 more week so the whole body gets used and balances, then i will remeasure and reconsider.

Body composition measurements:

Net morning weight : 81.4kg / 179.45lbs , below 180lbs, WORD! 
Waist : 85.5cm / 33.66'' , all time lowest measurement ,   

Online bodyfat estimation : 14.8% , ties previous week's lifetime
BI scale bodyfat estimation : 14.1% , huge lifetime 
AVERAGE bodyfat estimation : 14.45% , lifetime 

Previous:

Net morning weight : 82kg / 180.75lbs , lightest i've been the last 5 years or so , 
Waist : 85.75cm / 33.75'' , all time lowest measurement ,   

Online bodyfat estimation : 14.8% , first time ever under 15% at this . 
BI scale bodyfat estimation : 15% , oops, regressed here , 
AVERAGE bodyfat estimation : 14.9% , ties all time lowest average of last week.

I guess i am heading towards athletic anorexia, not sure of bad or awesome! 
Gotta stabilize it, i think the missing link is that after more than a month of undereating, i failed to force-feed 3K+ at gym days.
Gonna try to achieve that, keep everything else as is, stabilize at around 82kg and hopefully recomp there.

Oh come on, there was an extended discussion (2 pages) about that just a couple of weeks ago.

presumably because the sound doesn't exist in greek? many, many nonnative english speakers can't say "th" and substitute "t" "d" or "z" instead.

that will be me 

How have your chins, pulls and dips fared with this loss of bodyweight? Any noticeable differences?
