I’m right there with you but I find plenty of time to watch TV. On my days off I train and then watch TV in the afternoon while my son naps. There’s also options to watch TV on the cardio machines at the Y.
I don’t have HBO so I still haven’t seen GoT.

We have a television in the bedroom. I sometimes stream and episode right before bed. That’s about it though.
In have never had a TV in the bedroom. There are better things to do in bed !
Touché my friend touché! Although watching a movie with the wife already in bed with the adjustable base is pretty awesome too.

Couple days of lower calories and weight is coming down pretty fast. Gonna go back up on calories but keep it super clean.

Made 45 reps in 2 minutes. Wasn’t actually that bad. I’m sure I’ll be eating my works when I’m up in the 6-8 minute range in a month or so
Haha. Thanks for speeding up the video for us. If I weren’t doing the 5/3/1 right now I’d try this for my bird legs. Let us know how much size it adds.
Loving the special squat shoes !!
Hey I’m a gymnastics coach… slides are how I do!

Man unless I stuff my face I just can’t seem to stay on the 180s. I’ve eaten decent portions the past few days with plenty of protein and carbs, but am not hanging onto the weight.
I’m feeling a bit torn. We go to Mexico in a month, and of course I’d like to be in the best shape possible, but also don’t want to cut simply to end up making my bulk slower and less effective. Ugh… vanity.
Eating 2500-2700 calories a day is my sweet spot as far as comfort goes. I’m not hungry, and it’s pretty easy to eat that much. Maybe I’ll just stay there for a while and see what my body does. Sorry to ramble on about what doesn’t really matter.
After the Hungarian Leg Blast day 1 my lower back and hips are smoked. Glutes and hamstrings have decent DOMs, and quads are minimally sore. I’m not sure if the lower back is messed up or just really fatigued. Guess we’ll see as the day goes on.
Shoulders today.

Maybe you just need more beef and pork? It’s not going to be more protein, but definitely more calories per ounce.
I grill hamburgers and make a cheeseburger and wrap it in foil just like a fast food joint for work. 1/3 lb of beef, pepperjack cheese, and a cheap, white bun adds up to about 525 calories. I still have plenty of room in my stomach for carbs and veggies too. Unfortunately, this turns into a 800-900 calorie meal quickly and I can’t afford that right now.

Feeling good mentally, but have a good deal of aches and pains this morning. My right shoulder and bicep seems to be aggravated. I can’t pinpoint something that would have caused it though. Lower back and hips are still pretty rough although there’s marked improvement. I’m sure I’ll be fun by Sunday when it’s tome to hit legs
“Soft 155 to 185 at 5%… How many years will it take?”
Inappropriate log title, reported.
You went from an absolutely shredded 155lbs to a diced 180lbs. There has been no soft 155 in this log, false advertising. Try again.
Soft 155 was 2017 man. It’s the whole journey!
I thought some newb posted a new thread in the wrong section!
Nice bruh. How tall are you btw?
I’m 5’9”
Thought it was around there. Same here! Where you’re at is certainly goals for me at your age.

Yer I saw this and thought it was new. Still going to hang around to see you hit 185 at 5%. At that sort of weight you will be an absolute beast.!
