@ChongLordUno Always means a lot to get your accolades there dude! Hope you dig it.
Just gonna keep sharing the dinner food porn. Tomorrow will be especially crazy with the eating challenge, but tonight I finished off that chicken and a bunch of egg whites with sour cream
Tang Soo Do went well enough. I have the day off work tomorrow, with a plan to do a 2 a day for lifting, a lot of weight vest lawn mowing, dog walking, napping, and Metabolic Drive until I crush this challenge.
No joke, I thought that was apple pie and ics cream.
Iād go into a coma! Haha. But I totally see it now that you say it.
AM WORKOUT (0350 natural wake up) FED: 1 scoop of Metabolic Drive w/raw egg at 0030, egg whites upon waking
PLAGUE OF STRENGTHāS āFEASTā ROUTINE Week 3, Workout 4 part 1: Shrugs and Squats
SUPERSETS of Axle shrugs and SSB Squat
Axle shrug
10(possibly 11) x 3x496lbs
SSB Squat
6x3x415
28x250 deathset
5 round circuit of
3 more sets of calves for a total of 8
Off camera, I did 6x3x80lb goblet GHRs, one set done every 30 seconds on the 30 second mark, followed by 2 AMRAP sets also using 30 second rests, meeting the intent of the leg curls
Followed by 300 squats and 300 push ups in under 9 minutes
Iāve got the day off work, so I walked the kid to school and then did
Plan is to get in a LOT of activity and not much food today leading up to the Stellanator challenge this evening. So going just Metabolic Shakes and Spikes until 1930.
On that note, Iāve re-invented my oatmeal, using egg whites as the base instead of rice cauliflower
For me, it totally works. But Iām very much not picky. If I were to āsellā this idea, itāll need a touch of cinnamon, or an artificial sweetener, or a sugar free syrup, as the egg flavor slightly overpowers the vanilla whereas the rice cauliflower was pretty benign.
Later this afternoon, Iām going to to the press and bench workout of Feast. 2 a day will really drive the hunger hard. Caffeine is going to be through the roof as well.
You gotta wear the cap during training dude!
@cyclonengineer Cageliness is next to godliness!
@tlgains Such a tragic thing to do so to such a splendid hat! But it might get featured in some walks.
Iāll upload the video once youtube is done with it, but I did the press and bench workout of feast. I tried to absolutely crush it timewise but it still took about an hour. Went 8x2x200 on log clean and press away, then 5x10x88lb Klokov press, 5x5x205 swiss bar incline, 4x6x205 swiss bar close grip bench, and a pyramid of swiss bar skull crushers. I am absolutely exhausted and could not be more primed to crush some food. Iām gonna spend the rest of the evening watching the Dungeons and Dragons cartoon on youtube with my kid until itās time to put away chow.
EDIT: The video
agree with this. I have 2 old caps that were from my friends strength and conditioning gym merch, these I use for all sweaty and dirty work. My other caps are āfor bestā only, This TN cap would deff be a best only for me.
Hell yea!
give me a Hell yea.
I didnāt doubt you for a minute mate. Quality
The smile of victory!!
You da man Pwn!!
@heretolog Hell yeah indeed dude! Always props coming from a hoss like you.
@simo74 Thanks dude! Always great having you in my corner.
@tlgains Thanks man! Thereās that meatfest right there, haha.
AM WORKOUT (0445 natural wake up) FASTEDā¦kind of. Iāve got enough food in my guts for weeks.
1.65 mile weighted vest walk w/50lb vest
300 squats and 300 pushs ups in under 9 minutes w/tabata intervals
DRIVE TO WORK
2 mile walk
Notes:
I was in a pretty significant degree of agony for 3 hours after my meal last night, but eventually got to sleep. Woke up and decided that lifting was a poor idea, but wanted to get my body back to ānormalā by forcing it to continue on with a typical day, so went walking to help the digestion. Vest is always the right call there. Push ups and squats went surprisingly well. Iām feeling far less stuffed but still very satiated. I packed protein powder, but ultimately Iām not going to eat until I feel hungry again. Zero need to force feed.
All that said, I actually am down 3lbs from yesterday, and considering I have about 4lbs of food in my guts, thatās something. I think my plan to train a TON leading up to the food and use the food to refill the burned out glycogen worked. My body is just exploding with veins right now.
Itās also worth keeping in mind that, though my guts are bursting, a LOT of that was onions. You can see in the video Iām basically eating an entire plate of them, which my kid described looking late a plate of spaghetti. So even though I am stuffed to the brim, calorically, I have to keep in mind itās not quite as much as it feels. 6 big patties, 6 fried eggs, 12 strips of bacon, 6 slices of cheese, 1 bun and a LOT of peanut butter, alongside an order of fries. With a full day of fasting leading up to it, itās like 3 meals of: 2 patties, 2 eggs, 4 slices of bacon, 2 slices of cheese, a few fries, and a slice of peanut butter toast. Looking at it from that lens, thatās a hearty day of eating, but not abject gluttony.
Iāve got Tan Soo Do tonight, and might try to get in my lifting workout as well. Weāre staying up late, since the Mrs flies back tonight.
Actually managed to get in my missed lifting workout. Got out of work early, was compressed on time, so I FLEW through it.
PM WORKOUT (1450)
PLAGUE OF STRENGTHāS āFEASTā ROUTINE WEEK 3, Workout 5ā¦ish? Whatever, itās been crazy. Still fasted.
I havenāt eaten in about 20 hours at this point, STILL full from tackling on the Stellanator
And I absolutely berserker modeād this one! Tore through it. Having all those calories and meat coursing through my body is insane and I am pumped and ripped out of my mind.
High handle trap bar lifts
10x2x505
4x20 pull apart and 5xAMRAP hanging leg raise superset
Low hand trap bar rows 258
6x6
4x6x30lb KB hammer curl and 3x25x48lb axle curl superset
Crazy what 5lbs of cheeseburger can do for you
Slept off and on until 0740, immediately upon getting out of bed (like, legit, roll out of bed, feet hit floor) got in 300 squats and 300 push ups with Tabata intervals in under 9 minutes, had a banging breakfast
and then took the dog/family for a 2 mile walk while I wore the 50lb vest.
Iām feeling more human today after that challenge. Little lightheaded from the lack of food yesterday. Got at least 1 more week of Feast ahead, so I gotta live that life. Got some actual downtime this weekend, so maybe Iāll do some soothsaying.
I love that! Chaos is the plan, so thereās no planning: just soothsaying. Hell yeah.
Just gonna tell a story in photos and videos for a second
Meal prep goes well. Having the outdoor grill is awesome, since I can air fry the chicken and grill 2lbs of grassfed steak tips
Dinner tonight was bone in ham and egg whites
I keep eating well and getting jacked
@TrainForPain meant to tag you earlier, but thereās a good measure for the capacity of the outdoor. I just made an AMAZING ribeye on it too.
More weekend carnivore food porn.
Breakfast
2 whole pasture raised eggs, 1 egg white, some grassfed piedmontese steak tips with and some bone-in ham with grassfed swiss and grassfed butter in the omelette, 6 paleo chicken sausages, more steak and ham, and then an egg wrap with grassfed cottage cheese and some cinnamon. I put some of that grassfed sour cream on the eggs and meat after the photo.
I also had coffee with grassfed heavy whipping cream. I used a servingā¦and it still tasted like coffee. I feel like you have to put a LOT of cream in coffee to change the taste, which is most likely why people screw up coffee.
Meal prep: each container has at least 1 chicken wing and 1 drumstick. Some have 2 wings. Iāve also got ham and pasture raised whole eggs in there. The containers with an extra piece of chicken have less ham in them, to balance. And the ziplocks contain chicken tenderloins and grassfed beef liver for snacks.
Qādoba will sell you protein ala carte. Thatās awesome. I also think they didnāt have the mechanism in place for it, because they only charged me $3.75 for 12oz of chicken, but ānever correct your enemy when they are making a mistakeā. I put it on some eggwhite wraps with some grassfed swiss and sour cream to make carnivore tacos, and f**k me they were amazing! I actually had them alongside a bunch of egg whites.
Making it work and crushing it. Also, this is the most amazing Heracles artwork ever.
