I thought about it and as long as I am putting up 10+ on the AMRAP I am not going to take a deload. We’re getting close though on the Press towards hitting a peak. Keeping an eye on it.

The Krocs- I really wanted to hit 75 reps but that wasn’t in the cards yet. Got 55 on 5 and went for 5 more to hit 60. Felt great coming out.

Notes
Appreciate @The_Myth following and call out on his thoughts about Deload. The body is starting to tell me we are in for a deload week. Yes, I hit 11@205 but the energy and explosiveness is waning. With that said I am making PR’s on volume, shown in the bench assistance work. I kept my dick in my pants and took 5 lb off the last one based on how 180 went and was glad to get all 10 in. I’m glad I got 70 reps on the Krocs. I want to hit 100.

Usual pre, intra and post nutrition.

Again, was a little slow to start here. I haven’t been doing any light cardio to warm up over the last couple of weeks and this is probably why I am slow to start. The warm up sets probably need to be part of a bigger warmup with some increased heart rate. I used to hit the treadmill and walk for like 5 min briskly, I’ll give that a crack last week. The squat assistance work is coming along nicely, but I think that could be a function of getting the heartrate up too late in the main lift, which is not the way this should be going.

I was also running on maybe 2 hours of sleep. I just could not fall asleep until like 4am and I woke up a couple hours later.

I took a step back on the weight to get more volume on the Krocs and I am glad I did. Noticeably I still didn’t crank 100 out yet. I probably could have, but the lower bicep was starting to get almost joint-like sore so I didn’t make it a dick measuring contest and I just did what worked. 5 sets as programmed.

Slight adjustment in nutrition including shakes:

Pre: took my 6g citrulline 60 min before training. Never knew that it need about an hour to convert to nitric per Google AI. I think it helped even though it’s harder to feel it on leg day. Took my cyclic about 15 min before, with 5g leucine as usual. 2,000 ReLyte almost first thing when waking up and then full hydration prior to training.

Intra workout, H20, but it may be time to work in some BCAA’s with the soreness.

Post: 120g dextrose, 60g isolate

Trying to get all my carbs for the day within 4 hours of training as well

Dietary update
Moving to the Maximum Definition diet for the time being after reading @T3hPwnisher post and the success he is having. I need a break from carbs I feel absolutely disgusting. This may curb progress. TBD

No third movement

Notes
Did a modified ‘I ain’t doing jack shyt’. On the outset I did very well - I got loose, I did my main lift well and was surprising myself with the power and energy. The assistance started to catch up, and the energy began to fade, which is why I started low and decided to pyramid. The lack of a third movement was based on time, as I had a call to get to.

Pre workout: 6g citrulline, 5g Leucine, 2 scoop ReLyte.

Intra workout : h20

post workout: 5g creatine, 2 scoops ReLyte

Meal - on way into office. Made 4 Kirkland burgers and 10 eggs, will eat 2.5 hours after having completed training.

I upped my LJ100 from 400mg → 600mg daily for preservation.

Surprised myself getting all my work, but it’s the first time I haven’t gone 10+ on a main and it’s unlikely it would have been today if I wasn’t cutting

Low Krocs also

Notes
The workout was cranking. I could not believe it. I think the trick here is train as early as I can for maximum results on the cutting phase.

The cleaners for the apartment came 30 min early so I couldn’t do my Krocs today. I think they would have gone really well.

It was a carb meal day, so I had 8 eggs after training, 3 ribs around noon, and then my woman’s dad birthday so we had a huge dinner, that hit my carb goals probably for the next two weeks but so be it.

Going to fast today- no training on schedule - pool is on deck

Hard to make sense of ether it being bad warm up or just being zero carb or maybe just press needing some deload, but those were some garbage main Press results. It was worse than it looked.

Krocs I tried to do like a main movement as per Jim on his assistance work recommendations - as usual that went well

Dozen eggs and a chicken leg and some thigh post workout

Let’s see how the rest of the week goes.

Added 1,000mg Carnitine to pre workout

As you can see these numbers are getting tough to watch. The energy on the lower body has always been stronger but I should have gotten a lot more on the final deadlift. I was gassed by the end of all the deadlift assistance.

The incline bench work makes me want to puke. This whole thing is really getting frustrating. Yes, I am trimming up but at what cost. Being it’s a beach weekend I’m going to power through until Friday night for the first a carb meal, but it’s really getting into my head (and it’s only two weeks into this!)

Perhaps it be best to time your carb meal to be the evening before your hardest workouts.

Yeah I saw your own post on that recently, I do bench tomorrow, would be a new high, so will load tonight.

Appreciate you drop by bro, swing by more often

See, that doesn’t make sense to me. Bench isn’t a hard workout: squats and deads are. They use bigger muscles: they require more glycogen.
