1 MetCon
Jump rope - sled pull & drag - wall balls
30 skips - 100 kg + sled for 10m each - 10 reps @ 9 kg
Floored me. Worst are the quads thst pump up to the point of immobility. But lungs were done as well. Fuck me I’m out of shape.
2 sit ups
3 x 20
1 btn push press
6 x 15 @ 80 kg
Fuck me. Very hard today.
Also the MetCon interfered with my quads, I think. Will probably have to scale that down…

Thank you for the kind words mate! I did take no offense at all at sour original take and I certainly can use a kick up my butt every now and again!
I feel like I have a hard time accepting that I will be weaker… Smaller as well of course. It feels like I might give up a piece that I have worked very hard on to build up.
That’s the kind of pettiness I would expect. So do it!
I 100% understand this and not sure I have any good advice. For me the way I would try to get round this would be to work on some new strength endurance goals that supported my leaning out. That way my top end strength may be a little down but I can still feel strong and capable. (still going to remember when I was strong though 
)
I lost virtually no strength dropping 14 or so kg during the t-ransformation, I have a bum shoulder now but I really don’t think you’ll see a ton of drop off, at least in the initial phase.
I tested the waters on a single jump (61cm, suck it) and confirmed to myself that it was a bad idea.
119,4 kg this morning
1 kneeling into 1 legged landing into 1 leg box jump
2 x 1 p.l. @ 40 cm
3 x 1 p.l. @ 55 cm
2 front squats
8 @ 90 kg
8 @ 110 kg
3 x 8 @ 90 kg
3 ssb split squats (cheating with hands for balance)
8 @ 62 kg
8 @ 67 kg
2 x 8 @ 72 kg
4 ghd back extension
4 x 12 @ 40 kg
Let’s build up some legs!
Hard in this heat. Need to lie down.
I did a progression today. That should be a great idea for the knees, haha.
Will have to do 62 cm now.
Nice of @SvenG to drop some of his shorts off when he was in Germany
Now if only I was this jacked 
Hah! Thanks for that. But I guess you haven’t seen my post-Europe physique photos, have you?
(“Jacked” no longer applies, I fear…)
you sir win the internet today. This literally had coffee coming out of my nose. I am pretty sure if @Koestrizer tried to get @SvenG shorts on he would need to relocate his testicles. LOL
So it’s not my fault I’m not jacked, it’s the god damn continent! Roger that, no further questions.
118,8 kg (-4 kg since starting this cut) @simo74 you’re right, this is a very quick process so far. I think the biggest game changer ist a) not training for anything crazy right now (body doesn’t need the amount of fuel) and being on sick leave this week (more control).
Nice work on the cut! You have any concrete end goals or are you playing it by ear?
Nah just going by feel mate. 115 kg is the lowest I should go for now, I reckon.
Had a bit of a refeed yesterday and today.
Feeling really shitty today. Either stress related or coming down with a sickness or something. So chose not to train today.
This is the ‘likeable’ part.
Oh, and rest is good.
Back to 119,6 kg after two days of refeeding. That’s totally okay. I feel much better today and I think it was a good call to rest yesterday. Why stress about the schedule even at this point?

Felt good going in but very weak during. Can’t win them all.
Because I have a date later and felt super weak and off, I just stopped here and opted for rest instead.
