Thank you …annnnd it missed us. We had more rain the days prior and wasnt a Hurricane yet but I guess that is for the best.
It will probably be a hurricane when it hits the USA sometime tonight though so USA peeps STAY SAFE!!!
AM 96.1kg and GLUTE MFKN STRIATIONS!!! Ok not full on striations but you can see the lines in the right lighting.
I will do what I can to survive this weekend while still having a mental deload then this cut is not over.
PHYSIOLOGICAL DIFFERENCES
Generally speaking women have smaller features than men. Men love to use the excuse of small hands to not learn hook grip. Women almost seem to line up to learn it. Even my wife who has the pain thresh hold of something with out a pain thresh hold uses hook grip.
The moral of the story is that men are just babies while women make babies so men, STOP BEING BABIES!!! Use the damn hook grip!!!
I am pretty sure you need to go to your local embassy and get started there then come down here and do the rest. I would hire somebody to do all of it. Hiring somebody here will cost under 1000 pesos and save a million headaches.
AM Weight 97.1kg Dehydrated aided so that’s not great.
Rise of the Machines
Maybe 1 set on 10 diffferent machines
Curls in the Squat Rack
More Curls
Some Squat warmup stuff
Some Pullups
More Curls
Annnnd some more curls
Abs
3 sets of machine pressing sucked the life out of my delts.
My back is feeling a lot better than expected. I am very hopeful for Squats tomorrow.
Yea time to indulge in the Bread and Circus. Happy SUNDAY FUNDAY!!!
ER Day is Gun Day Actually I am really trying to make some arm gainz especially in the biceps so I do hit them as often as possible.
LOWER TIL FKN DEATH!!!
Front Squat 2s @ 135-225-245-265-285
Squats Top Set 4@485
Back Down 6-8-10@335
Sumo + Conv Deads 3x2+8@335
Yoga (I laid on the floor until I was undead)
Front Squats were AMRAPs limited by my rack. I am going to keep doing this until hopefully my rack doesnt suck.
Back Down squats were supposed to be 3x8 but I got the reps in one way or another.
Deadlift work translates to 3 sets of 2 Sumo Pulls plus 8 conventional reps at 335lbs
AM Weight? I dont know but I was looking crisp AF then it faded a bit. Probably right around 12-14% right now. Maybe in a couple days I will have a progress shot.
Diet Today: 600g Denver Steak, 2 Cups rice, 1kg frozen vegs and protein shakes as needed…this is either going to make me look awesome tomorrow or soft AF.
AM 96.1kg and 94.5cm waist. Both were a surprise. I actually think I measured my waist wrong.
I can count on 2 fingers how many times I have had my CNS fried from benching, today was one…I know there was another one I just dont remember when.
BENCH
Bench Working:
4-2-2@355
4-3-3@315
Incline Dum Press 10-10@100s
Crawl home
Nap for 2 hours
Warmups felt heavy but I still hit a rep and volume PR. It gives me faith I didnt overshoot my programming as bad as I thought.
My rep capacity with Bench is actually a lot worse than Squats so I thought most likely I would have to scale back Bench, not Squats.
But I think what torpedoed me was that I was supposed to stop sets at RPE 7-8 but I always went to 9-9.5. Doing that on Bench is not that big of a deal, Squats will drain the lift force from your blood.
So, final conclusion: My program is good, it just has an idiot driving.
Felt so good going to the gym…then FUARCK! Yea knees and back hurt. I am seeing where I fucked up and I am sure I will see a lot more as I decompress and stop being a baby.
My Squat workouts are going full BB mode until I start the “real” prep. I doubt I will touch more than 4 plates.
I am going to stay the course with bench as it is going great despite Delts being a bit run down which should work it self out if I stay away from Machines.
Cut just got real starting at the gym. I am going to drop a kg or 2 leading into the “real” prep.
Squats
Front…Sucks
Back Squat…sucks Top Single at 405
10s @ 225-245-265-285-305
Couldnt really dead lift
didnt feel like hamstring curls
Going to have a nap and I will probably hit the gym later for some rows to help with these delts and missed deads.
this is my favorite holiday, it comes more than once a year and I have an excuse to make my wife watch Friday the 13th which is one of my favorite horror films.
Thursday PM
CG Cable Rows
Bunch of Curls
That made my delts feel better. Noted, will be hammering any and all rowing I can.
Wakes up 2kg heavier…WTF LOL 98.5kg 94cm Waist but with ab veins. I might just have to aim to stay under 100kg but I know how this story ends…with another even higher weight limit.
AM Bench
Bench
365 for 4-2-3
325 for 5-2-3
Incline Dums 115s for 10
Hella Long Proactive Core and Stability workout that will be done ERDAY post workout. There is a chance on Squat Day I go in early, do this workout then come back home eat more, sleep, hydrate more then hit up the Squats later in the day.
On top of my Mobility just not being what it should be I my bracing straight sucks. I am also realizing that Squatting what I want to Squat will be a 24 hour a day job. I will need to work so much harder not just on stuff like that Mobility and Stability stuff but also in how long I sit, how I sleep, generally making sure I stay active and keeping my waistline from bloating (tends to cause a bit of anterior Pelvic tilt which aggravates the SI Joint).
I have already put so many eggs in this basket to do what I know I am capable of and I know exactly how many more are going in. As many as it takes.
That being said Wifey and I are going to be taking a little romantic all inclusive trip. We were supposed to go weeks ago for a Combo of both our Bdays and Anniversary but I was an over focused ass so we postponed.
But then I am 6 weeks out and it is MFKN GO TIME!!!
Actually I am really trying to make some arm gainz especially in the biceps so I do hit them as often as possible.
