I absolutely love his stuff, man. He has plenty of workouts on his YouTube you can just jump into and a free program on this site. Once you get his framework down, obviously you can sub in whatever moves you like.
I find I consistently get stronger on his stuff without a bunch of aches and pains, and I just think the workouts are fun. Even when I try to do other stuff, I can’t venture away for long.
Nice one. Cheers matey
I’m doing Gamma Bomb
Been putting the feelers out this week. Gonna hopefully start fresh this week
That’s a good one!
Loving it!
What is the tracking app you use?
It’s called Strong
I think it’s only available on iOS mate
I like the screen. I probably would blow it off, because I get bored logging in here too, but it looks cool. I like how it tracks your best set
Had a hiccup last week but back on track.
Finding the whole calorie counting/macro approach a piece of piss at this point.
I’m convinced that fasting and OMAD hardened me up.
Hunger hasn’t been an issue at this point.
Been mostly eating ground beef, ground turkey and sardines along with rice and sweet potato.
In fact I’ll post a myfitnesspal pic

Wildly overshooting protein however not a major concern at this point
Just love my skyr and protein bars too much
Alright, saw mention of this in @TrainForPain’s log and had to come see what it was.
What’s the split like? I get the feeling that Meadows does bro splits so everything gets annihilated once a week…especially after I tried a his Old School Back session that I saw on YouTube. It wasn’t a ton, but it’s a lot for me to do twice a week - especially during my short sessions during my lunch break at work.
And hack squats are dumb. I always felt like my patellar tendon was going to snap on the old school ones. I’ve seen newer ones but I don’t like the loading on them, either. You want to develop your legs? Do single leg stuff that actually resembles human movement. Lunges, split squats, etc.
People might snicker at my squat, but no one laughs when you’re doing two plates on Bulgarian split squats.
So far I’m enjoying it. It’s a big change from how my workouts are normally programmed, that’s for sure.
Being a Meadows program, it’s hardcore BB. Something I’ve never really done in years. I’m enjoying going with the flow.
I’m a big fan of single leg work. I would say the BSS is the most painful exercise out there for sure .
Volume up to 11. It’s worth checking out
First week over.
Was tough going trying to get all the workouts in. Need to work harder on springing out of my bed at 5.30am.
Doesn’t help when my toddler wakes up in the middle of night, crying 
.
The pumps I was getting were ridiculous.
Some of the sets were painful. I’m slowly getting into the whole bodybuilding thing. Keeping the kcals consistent and resisting temptation for the most part.
Going to drop 100 kcals as I feel like I’m stabilising.
Cardio will probably get added in when I plateau.
Love the log title. Creative!
@kleinhound what other Meadows programs did you run?
