Means you don’t just yank on the bar as you initiate the pull. Apply an initial pull on the bar then set your hips to the right height without losing that initial pull on the bar. You know you’re doing it correctly when you don’t hear a clicking sound made by the bar and the plates when you initiate the lift. If you hear that, you’re yanking on the bar and not pulling the slack out first.
Breakfast: 3 pancakes,scrambled eggs, 2 or 3 link sausages i don’t remember
Lunch: 5 slices of meat lovers pizza lol
And a handful of peanuts
Dinner: massive chunk of meatloaf and a giant chunk of cornbread
Just leaving this here, that’s a quote from each of your last 3 diet posts. Didn’t mention the fruit punch, pancakes, fries, etc. but you get the point.
What point? I’m not gonna eat pizza everyday.
For the past 3 days you’ve posted, you’ve eaten pizza. If you’re just going to be defiant and snooty about it, there’s nothing more to say.

Living the dream.
No exaggeration, that is one of my dreams. Unfortunately, as my parents told me, “I’m not as good looking as Joey, I can’t pull off the fat look”. True story.
Breakfast: Bowl of cereal and like 3 handfuls of peanuts
Lunch: chipotle chicken wrap with chicken veggie soup, bag of sliced apples, and cup of fruit punch
Dinner: Chunk of meatloaf, croissant, 3 tbsp of olive oil
Dinner the sequel: Chunk of meatloaf, 2 pieces of whole wheat bread 3 tbsp
@flappinit how u like me now. Suck deez nuts. Jk bro lol.
Kids these days… you don’t know how to talk properly to grown ups anymore - the very grown ups that are being patient with you and giving you solid advice.
Squat:
155x5 175x5 200x5 5x5
Press:
70x5 85x5 95x5 70x13
100 lat pulldowns
100 facepulls
Deadlift:
200x5 230x5 260x5 3x5
Bench: 125x5 145x5 160 5x5
5 sets of chin ups amrap
I slowed the deadlifts down and noticed how I really need to be explosive at the bottom with speed otherwise I can’t generate a lot of force. @dagill2 I think I need to be confident If I ever pull heavy deads cause when I’m not confident I do things slow and willy nilly.
I did these on consecutive days probably a monolith sin but I had to.
Yep. Confident but not careless.
This is why you build to it slowly and carefully by following the plan.
I wanna pull 345x5 cause @Chris_Colucci said in theory it gives me 405 max.
Probably true.
My point was that the way you know that you’re ready to pull heavy weight is that it comes up naturally in your training.
Breakfast: Cereal, 2 handful of peanuts nuts
Lunch: soft tacos with refried beans,cheese, bag of apples and fruit punch
Lunch2: 4 slices digiornios meat lovers pizza(sorry guys we ran outta meatloaf)
Dinner: 2 Pb and j sandwiches on whole wheat bread and a handful of peanuts
If you were to plug all that lot into myfitnesspal or another food tracker, what would it come out with in terms of calories and main macros?
I calculated 3109 calories. Just took it straight from nutrition labels. Idk the macros tho.
Just for squirts and giggles, I put all of that into myfitnesspal quickly. I was extremely generous with portion sizes and food choices as you didn’t give me a load to work on.
Your day:
Cals: 3994 (I was really, really generous with portion sizes)
Protein: 160g
Compared to Wendlers example day of eating in which i could do portion sizes pretty accurately:
Cals: 6026
Protein: 385g
Interestingly carbs were about the same between each diet, despite the difference in calorie count. Sugar was a lot higher in your diet, again, despite the calorie count.
Tl:dr: your food quality is poor and even with my extremely generous estimates, you’re still way off with your protein.
Oh well it is was it is.
Yes. Yes it is. And it will remain that way until you do something about it.
