Haven’t updated in a very long time. On vacation and haven’t been hitting anything other than upper body pump stuff (no squat racks allowed on cruises for obvious reasons). I realized that in pretty damn fat sitting at 200lbs. I put on an older pair of swim shorts and I definitely had some extra fat coming over the edge lel. Didn’t realize I’d let myself go this much. I’m still trying to decide whether to drop down to around 190 or just get stronger at 200.

Really inactive lately. Low motivation to workout this past month but I’m headed back to start full time work in a few days. I’m looking to get on a consistent routine once I get back. I signed up for weekly indoor soccer so I’d like my weight to drop down to around 190, preferably 185.
Long term goals at this weight would be:
500lb squat
600lb deadlift
315 bench
Looking at myself now I’m nowhere near lean and carrying a lot of extra fat. I’d like to think that these lifts are very achievable at this bw.
Got a quick workout in today:

8x8x185

Sometimes u need to chill a bit and take a step back so that u can rest spiritually and shit. The hunger for gains will return

Going off the pig’s point, some notice a massive improvement from taking time off. Especially if you’re going to spend time doing soccer. The lower body improvement will show and after an adaptation block, you’ll likely be stronger in no time

Thanks guys I think right now my goal is to maintain what I’ve got in terms of strength until the next wave of motivation hits me. Worst thing I can do imo is do nothing and waste the hard work I’ve put in this year

First workout back in NY. Weights feel heavy as expected. Going to start back up on Monday with what I was doing previously. We’ll see how badly soccer impedes recovery

Been away from your log for a while Braggy.
Good to see you’re still hitting the gym.
Soccer is so much fun, and you’ll maintain some of your strength just by playing.
But getting to the gym a couple of times practicing skills will be good.

Theres no reason you cant do both, granted you have the time. Just gotta listen to your body.
Just like Tristyn Lee. Except he’ll be 16 years old and 5’2 forever

Decent session, strength coming back. Horribly out of shape cardio-wise though. Aiming for 3 10-15 minute medium internsity runs per week plus league soccer games.
