Ha! Nice spot. Didn’t really hear it first time.
Looking big Austin. Getting gradually leaner too?
Looking good man. Waist seems to be tapering in, wheels looking good.
Must not be liking the calves if you’re keeping on the socks for the pic, though… lol
this thread is a mouthful of fuck yeah.
Thanks fellas.
Jake - Little by little man, trying to lean up.
Spidey - Calves are alright but I was doing deads so I had the high socks on just to keep from cutting up the shins.
Nate - I’m trying my best man, I hope there are a lot of fuck yeahs in here.
Should be starting a labor intensive full time job in the next week or so. Plan is to kill it even harder in the weight room. Fuck it might work 50 hours a week, but tired and hungry but I’ll have money and use my free time on week days to train.

Just means MOAR FOOD!!! I love manual labor then going to the gym and killing it then coming home and destroying food. Nothing is better than that IMO
Yea dude, I plan on bringing a cooler packed with chicken and beef and rice and whatever else for the days work…
Man I am a night owl and have recently been trying to become a morning person…
5 hours tops sleep for the past few nights but it is getting better little by little. Just forcing myself to wake up early and not nap. Hopefully a few more days and waking up at 6 am wont be hard…I am a person who would stay up to 330 every night and wake up at noon…

Unfortunately wanted to do olympic speed squats… The way I set the bands up on my powerack though, if I go too deep they lose tension…box squat prevented this but I’ll work on it for the upcoming weeks.

Solid workout…I take rest periods more suited to power sometimes they are 4-5 minutes when it’s getting close to my final sets but probably averages 2-3.
Anyways this workout took almost 2.5 hours…holy fuck…I am starving!!! Time to cook up some chicken.
Ran 1 mile today in 6:33…that is all I could push it in this scorching heat…
Will eat dinner then hit the gym for more cardio tonight in the AC!

Do you run your mile for time? Or just that’s what it ended up as? lol
youssss getting quick son
Like that you are big and strong and still do a good amount of cardio work. I enjoy my cardio work. Allows me to eat more!. Course i hate running but to each his own. Also you are stronger from a deficiet than i am probably from a rackpull mid shin 
Spidey - Kinda for time and sometimes not. It was hot and I am certain I could normally go faster. I want to be able to knock out a quick 6 minute mile at any given time and also have the endurance for a nicely paced 3-5 mile run.
I like lifting heavy just as much as having a good strong heart. Also helps with leaness…
Nate - trying to get quick man, I am pretty fast, I like sprinting and was always faster than most people in gym or that I run against at school but that doesn’t say much. Sucked at endurance stuff when I was young so I think being good at it now is important.
Ryan - Dude that is my philosophy too, rather eat more and do more cardio, than be hungry and do no cardio to lose similar amounts of fat. I also feel like doing good cardio gives you a harder more vascular look than relying on diet alone. I think since I can keep carbs higher it helps at least for nattys.
