Idk f if I could do half that for 10x10 :rofl:

Ehh it’s dependent on your strength/ size.
I’m short, but I have 29inch quads, that I’ve built over the course of 5 years. I better be able to do 10x10 of SOMETHING lol.

I’m sure you can dish out 10x10, it’ll just be relative to your strength/size.

You’re doing deepwater right?

Was. I’m not where I want to be concerning my recovery, and I want to run Deep Water when I’m in a much healthier mental state, just so I can really reap all the benefits.

Currently I’m just doing a PPL 10x10 scheme I put together. 3-4 movements, including abs. I pick movements that recruit as much of my body as possible to keep everything as simple and streamlined as possible.

Weak, I lost 6 then gained back 4! Hoping it’s mostly water weight though

I feel great right now. My diet is going well, things seem to be moving in the right direction, albeit slowly, which is good because I don’t have too much fat to lose and I don’t want to end up down at 76kg again.
I’ve got meal prepped meals coming tomorrow for next week and I’m going to order them again the following week and play it by ear.
My conditioning is creeping up too which is the goal

Feeling unkillable

Haven’t trained in 10 ten days. Giving you guys a headstart so that I’ll crush you even more with the transformation in a shorter time (lol jk)

I am on a cut, technically speaking, which I manage by often skipping dinner and just drinking wine and eating snacks instead. It’s super effective, down 3 or 4 kg since early December.

I think I need a foolproof plan for building some biceps if I am going to have any chance with this challenge. Mine suck, have always sucked, and always will suck. It’s almost as if I should do some direct biceps work, god forbid.

This is the secret, actually train them.

I know, but unlike apparently everyone else on the planet, I hate biceps work. Which is strange, because I am a pulling juggernaut. I never met a bar I didn’t want to pull myself up to, on to, or over. My biceps should already be bigger than my head, but alas.

I will have to think about this. And find ways that don’t exacerbate the already borderline pain in my elbow joints.

Try asking someone like @jackolee or @The_Mighty_Stu they probably have some good tips for focusing on the biceps.

Well I guess you just tagged them, so maybe they will appear magically now. Either that or I will just start a new 5/3/1 program for just biceps. 7 days a week.

I like your can-do attitude!

Honestly, it would probably be more effective for me to just surgically install potatoes where my biceps are suppose to be.

An elegant solution!

Years ago I lived in Arlington, TX, and my ex-husband worked in the same complex as a (the?) Metroflex gym. We’d see guys out there doing cardio in the parking lot in 105 degree heat with sweats on and occasionally joked about installing muscles into our clothes.

They were impressive, though. Like, crazily so, some of them.

That’s an original approach to dieting for sure!

The more accurate version is that I have snacking issues and an overall diet that would accurately be described as ā€œpretty shittyā€. So yeah, do sometimes skip a regular meal to make up for it. And wine tastes good, so there’s that to contend with.

Haha understood.

If it makes you feel better, calories from alcohol are unlikely to contribute to significant fat gain as long as they aren’t consumed together an abundance of other nutrients.

Have you considered crafting 1-2 menus and just repeating them rotating every day? This way you have to do brain work only once and then put autopilot mode on.
