So that was a fun workout. really trying to keep working the upper chest and honestly sounds stupid and bro but the low to high and HS incline has the upper part of my chest visibly contracting more than the lower. Its actually kinda cool to see and feel. So slowly learning these motor patterns. Hopefully it will pay off in the end. So macros are around 450/270/55 ED started on monday. God i am starving eating this. I hate it. hate my body. So broekn

Starving at almost 3400 calories?

Is that significantly lower than where you were at before, or is it the shift away from the IF-style schedule that has you so hungry?

It will be interesting to see how this diet impacts things for you. I’m counting on you to generate some useful data since you are so good at adhering to a plan with machine-like precision. I hope you can keep posting whatever details you are allowed to share.

I can see that thickness coming along nicely in the upper chest/front delt transition area. Good work, keep it up!

Yeah it’s dumb. And yeah I was near there maybe 4000 and one day a week would be 5-6k before. But fasting is fine and easy but once I eat that starts the hunger so it’s the frequency thing for me. And sorry 1.5 cups of rice and 8oz of chicken is a snack when I eat very unsatisfying.

Thanks working on that area don’t think you can ever have that too large.

All of no sleep at all from a lovely insomnia flair up so that’s cool

That’s about it was tasked with 7 exercises 3 sets a piece. Nothing special. Hit form perfectly with no swinging or extra stuff. Just strict stretch and pump. Create fatigue move blood without a ton of damage

Did hiit 15/45 x5 after that and 2 rounds of complexes. I am gonna have to add an afternoon for hiit next week.

Got lucky and they let me off work nice and early so my half day was more like 2/5 day instead.

Day 7 this week

Decent workout. I actually don’t like training arms that much. The pump hurts but their is no decent weight moved or anything. The fast pace is nice and fits nicely with my ADHD. The hiit made me realize how out of shape I am lol. Jeezus I was dying. Two of those nasty sessions a week. JM must hate me

Aight Week 2 starting up. Maybe I will take a poll here too. Would anyone be interested in a blog. I would do it about fitness thoughts. Maybe science articles that seem interesting. Med school. Life and how i generally organize things to work and still maintain what I think is a sane life. Do you think people would be interested? Also thinking of taking on some online training and diet clients. But just thinking as of now. But I have a steady increase in free help being dished out to people in my class and around me but most arent really truly into even wanting lift at all. They would rather run marthons (most docs seem to like marthons and iron man stuff). Anyways no idea if it would work or if people would be interested in a blog. Obv much more detail and length than here. Any feedback is cool

Anyways week 2 Legs Heavy

Leg curls
3 warmup sets
Work 3x10 +20 partials on last set

Thats all their was did some elyptical to cool down and some stretching thrown about. Some nasty knee pain is killing me same spot. Feels bruised but i know it isnt. Its still the lateral portion just proximal to the knee almost inbetween the VL and knee. Hurts with and squatting. TFL is still not too happy. I wrapped my knee with voodoo bands lightly today and that kinda felt a bit better. Need to work on something lol. Other than that workout was good. I think the squats eneded up a bit high on weight and wanted more reps but meh pushed hard. Bored out of my mind on this portion of the rotation. No changes to diet. Started this week at 212.

Had time for 4 15s intervals and will go back in after work to get in some more intervals. Workout was solid. Some of the techniques sneak up on you fast and you end up using so much less weight than you think you should. Pretty cool how such a benign workout on paper can be so solid and leave you dripping sweat. I am ready for this boring week to be done. I dont want anymore of it lol

Bicep 4x12-20

Was supposed to do back extensions as well but someone was using it and didnt have time to sit and wait for them to get done and looked like they were gonna be a while. Workout was solid. The dead stop rows were killer. Really like doing dead stop rows and working on exploding through. Quite fun. Still hovering around 212-213 on the same macros. Carbs dont make you fat :slight_smile:

Rice chicken fat free cream cheese pasta sauce Parmesan

Breakfast. Cinnabon whey with fruit loops

Legs Pump day

Complex
Row/SLD/Power clean/Push press/Lunge/Back squat 135 6-10 reps on everythign except squat did 20 2x through and death. Wow painful and trying to make these secondary ones lower stress on my bad knee and tfl. This was better but not the best. Got some work done some stretching. And those 2 complexes were nasty. Obv my CV is horrible lol

Fun workout. Ive never been good at those x overs but Ive finally learned enough of how to activate my chest so now they feel amazing. Can actually feel and see a much large pump across the top of my chest. All of this was just a constant burn and pump. Lots of stretching to try and add in some extra pain and mobility. Last full week of this rotation. Only 3 days next week then 2 days of tests, then xmas break.

Waiting for penis pump day.

Too many sessions to record.

So JMs training and diet have me down to about 209.5 with 450c 270-280p 55f. 6-7 days of training. 7’ last week 6 so far this week. So dropped from a semi bloated 215 down to current weight. I guess that means no metabolic damage lol

Front from the morning

Back obv not flexed in either pic. Too lazy

I’d be interested in this.

And damn I didn’t realize you had started work with JM already. Is he doing your training, diet, or both?

Some walking couple sprints and done. Fun weekend workout. Gf killed hers. Her form is stupid good for back work. I must suck because she has learned to use her back well in months and It took me years. Damn it lol. Will be sending in update to JM tomorrow. I’ve alwasy respected his science and insanely hard work and the fact he constantly adapts. Now I can respect how great he is as a coach. Great to work with. He has helped with out pay with just little bits of advice before but now actually paying for it is worth every penny. End plug.
