Dear lord.
Next semester, Iāll be cooking for myself and coursework might actually get hard. What are your thoughts on me eating a dozen boiled eggs as a cheap way to get daily protein in without hassle
So all of these are sets x reps? I seriously canāt wrap my head around that. Like should we call the Guinness book of world records?
No. Sets times weight used- which doesnāt make the rest of us feel any less weak ![]()

@kdjohn They definitely arenāt internet approved chins, haha. But theyāre stretching the lats something fierce.
@anna_5588 If youāre living in the dorms, such cuisine may be met with disdain. I know my co-workers didnāt like when I ate hardboiled eggs. Otherwise, I add a dozen of them a day for 6 weeks while doing 5/3/1 Building the Monolith. Itās viable. I canāt stand hardboiled eggs, so I used sugar free BBQ sauce to get them down.
@Koestrizer Hah, if only. @anna_5588 nailed it.
I think @loganator did this for a time. It would turn me into a biological hazard. Iād probably be in breach of the Geneva convention.
@anna_5588 @T3hPwnisher I should really think before typing. That was stupid. Nonetheless that is crazy strong dude!
Edit: A few hours later I canāt believe I typed above⦠That has to be one of the stupidest things I ever said online! But I mean on the other hand, I can imagine Pwn going: āyeah donāt mind me mate, Iām just over here doing fucking 1355 pull ups in one workout. Whatās the big deal?ā
I mean if anyone was to do itā¦
Shh⦠dangerous information is already to easily available on the internet! ![]()
Happen to capture a video of that one?
Nah. Havenāt been recording most of the press days, since itās just been numbers plummeting, haha. Things seem to be evening out a bit now though, so I may grab some in the future.
Haha yeah, thatās pretty fair.
Man on the French toast I usually make it in bulk it isnāt to bad. But no worries either way. It was something that has really helped me. I love sweets and with sugar free syrup it takes the edge off.
So your set up there kinda reminds me of a combo of conjugate and Brian schwabs M2 method of gradually increasing ROM. I like the way you have that laid out. Itās linear with varying lifts programmed in. Iāve lost a LOT of strength since losing all this weight and want to do something that inspires me to get back on the strength wagon. I had to go all in on weight loss and strength was an after thought.
When you do your front squats with ssb do you load the bar on your shoulder reverse of if you were having it on your back? I have a ssb and love it. Itās a great shoulder saver. Thanks for the reply man!
Iām sure his french toast is good. I just donāt get whatās the difference between his french toast and regular french toast made with egg whites and a crap ton of vanilla and cinnamon (which is how I make it).
Lol there really isnāt a big difference. But the goal is to get as much egg white in a single piece of bread as possible. This becomes a challenge sometimes. Whipped eg white cartons help a lot with this.
I just put the bread in and do shit for a while. I usually get about 1/4 cup into each piece
Thatās not too bad of an idea. Right now I have a kodiak waffle with my pre-workout meal, but that could be something I swap for. I donāt have much of a sweet tooth but instead a āmeat toothā: always been a fan of high fat meats, processed stuff, etc. Itās been a blessing and a curse, haha. PB fit has really saved me through this: goes on everything, peanut butter flavor but low calorie/fat.
The max effort work is a nice way to take your way off strength loss. Iām a big fan of abandoning previous movements or changing them up enough that I canāt compare PRs when Iām in a state like this. So if you were using a barbell for presses, benches, deads, etc, go with an axle and have no baseline to compare against, for example.
With the SSB front squats, itās like this
Ditto on the feelings of the SSB. The only thing I donāt like about it is how MUCH I like it. Barbell squatting tends to make me stronger all over just because of how much they suck, but Iād sooner use the SSB.
I like it gonna have to give those a shot.
Yeah low bar sucks on my shoulders. High bar isnāt as bad but ssb is awesome. I canāt handle as much weight with it however. Maybe a good thing on my spine but hurts the ego. Lol
Thatās pretty much what I do. And soak the next batch while the previous cooks. When I first started doing this I was buying whole eggs and tossing the yellow. Basically it was much cheaper that way as I was getting 18 eggs for .50-1.00 depending on the week. I have paid as low as 24 cents for 18 eggs. Iād whip them to make the more watery but they still wouldnāt soak as well I. The bread. I now spend waaaaay more money on the cartons and it works so much better. Idk maybe I should whip them longer or something but the extra few bucks no biggy I guess.
Been at 2 dozen a day the past few months (sometimes only 5-6 days a week though).Was around 12-18 a year ago and 10ish the year before that. Is this what coaches mean by progressive overload?
Agree with Pwnisher that boiled are gross, Iāll gag if I have more than a couple at a time.
No digestive problems so maybe Iām one of the lucky ones or my gut biome has permanently shifted to egg mode
Same boat. Milk doesnāt bother it either. And yeah: I canāt eat a dozen scrambled or fried eggs fast enough, but when theyāre hard boiled itās a chore. Weird how it all shakes out.
