Ha Ha - yep! You said it. Thanks!
congrats on the PR. You got a good lift, so I canāt fault ya. I honestly did the same thing recently lol. Missed 585, was pissed because Iāve hit more in the past, so the very next week I got it after 545 felt smooth. That was on Monday, hahhaa. So basically I did exactly what I told you not to do.
You got it and cleanly too - so you obviously should have gone for it. Thatās how I look at it anyway. Nice work!
Congrats on the PR man! Hitting that 500lb+ DL is a great feeling.
I may have hit a PR or two to that song as wellā¦
Thanks @littlesleeper. Appreciated!
Gonna try to post cals and macros daily as much as possible in the evenings. This will help hold my fat ass accountable.
Todayās cals: 2,638
Basic basement training. Push-ups, empty bar OHP volume work, curls, abs. 20 minutes tops.
Lower cals today than normal 2,030. No reason but not real hungry.
In Chicago traveling for business this week so wonāt be posting updates. Creativity will be the name of the game with a hotel gym. Weather is great so Iāll be getting some walks in and focusing not overeating in one of my favorite cities to eat
. Safe to say protein wonāt be a problem.

Havenāt updated in a bit⦠no ones probably reading this anyway, but fell off the wagon a little bit. My demons get me every once and then. Trying to crawl back out.

I read it. You all good mate?
Still in, still reading, still waiting.
