Hell yeah brother: this should be awesome to see.

His programs are tough!!! I did 6 weeks of his hypertrophy plan on this site while eating 2300 cals/daily and it crushed me.

I’m doing this too. Currently on week 5 of High Evolutionary. I’ve done a lot of Meadows programs in the past. All great.

NIce! You have a log? I’m on day 3 today.

No. I should have done a few by now. I just don’t have the time.
I started with “12 wks of pain and suffering” then " Warlock" then “Gama Bomb” soon to be starting “Creeping Death”

Gaining phase?

Do you have current physique pics?

Subbed as fuck

Unless its to meet Rx, I would stick with bodyweight. I never got better at pull ups by doing lat pulldowns. n=1
*I will say that doing single sided lat pulldowns on a Hammer Strength machine helped me maintain numbers, at least.

I’m a few weeks into a 20week building phase. I bulked most of last year and from december to feb i did a cut heading into vacation. Since vaca in feb/march i’ve pretty much been reverse dieting to. Put on a solid 8-9lbs of stage weight last year and hoping to do the same this year.

This was a couple weeks ago.

TY!!! :rofl:

Yeah these will be a work in progress. I haven’t done pullups in a long time. The plan calls for banded but i just went for it. Full stretch and hang for a second at the bottom.

My coach recently had me start doing these and I love them. They hit the lower lats especially well.
