Notes~ I am really worried that I did not put on enough muscle. Some days I feel big and other days super small.
If I get to 14-15% BF and I am a twig I am pulling out and bulking again.
we’ll see. I would rather not make an ass of myself
I am 100% committed to doing it tho so whether it be in the spring or the fall really doesnt matter. I ‘think’ I will be ok for spring tho.

Do you cycle carbs? Your muscles can look relatively full or flat depending on how much glycogen and water you are carrying. In any event, I wouldn’t worry about it, you look great.
Had to change the order up a bit. Felt pretty crappy after the squats and needed to give my legs a break before I tackled calves. I often thought of quitting today. grumble grumble grumble…
I didn’t even catch that you were deadlifting and squatting twice per week…
You warrior!
I don’t know much about romanian deadlifts. Do you feel they help your regular deadlift?
Also, my friend said that “Chicks that lift too much are gross” so I showed him you to make my argument that it certainly DOES NOT make women un-attractive haha.
lol I dunno about warrior!! I hate to say it but this last part of the program I have hated so much but its gave me the best results Like they say, you have to go out of your comfort zone to see change!
I dont know if it will have helped my deads, I am sure it will have somewhat. I do them now as we have been trying to bring up my hams and glutes.
Awwww thanks Glad I could be of assistance
