I actually am really happy with my squat today. I’m just in a foul mood about powerlifting in general. I see guys in the 198’s and shit squatting 600+ and I’m just like “wtf how?”. And like I said last time these motherfuckers have smaller upper bodies than me and they are paused benching like 385 or some bullshit. Pisses me off.[/quote]
HAHA!! I feel the exact same way about all them tiny, no-body-fat women squatting like 100lbs over me with perfect, NO BUTT WINK FORM!! Bah, drives me crazy. Actually it seems like most women have wayyy prettier squat form than I do. I don’t even care about the weight anymore, I just wanna know their butt wink-less secrets :P.
You’d still be the strongest guy I’ve ever seen in my gym if you lifted there.

Get out of that cage Lil Wayne, you don’t belong in there, you’re not a powerlifter!
In all seriousness, while you fret over being moderately far off from the top guys in your weight class, we must all consider that we are mere saplings to the mighty Richard Hawthorne. I’m almost 100lbs heavier than him and I still can’t pull 600.
Everytime It’s 11:11, I secretly wish in my head, “I wish I could deadlift 600.”

Lol. I saw him in the cage this year and my first thought was also " lol wut is lil Wayne doing in the Animal cage"
I’m gonna start doing that shit at 11:11 then. That’s all we need really is more voodoo. Then one day it’ll magically be there.
Trying my hand at carb backloading (seriously this time).
I was running into an issue where I couldn’t figure out how to get enough calories on my no-carb days. Trying to force down 3lbs of Wamplers sausage and a dozen eggs is bullshit.
Get this though, I found out that heavy whipping cream has zero fucking carbs and a shit load of calories! And then I found one even better… Coconut oil. It has like 100 billion calories per tablespoon or something. Amazing. All my problems are solved. So then I came up with this concoction that I call “The 1080”.
3/4 cups of pure heavy cream
1 tablespoon of coconut oil
3 scoops of whey protein
Some water to help everything mix together.
Get that all shaken and blended up and voila!
1080 calories in a single cup
72 grams of protein
74 grams of fat
9 grams of carbohydrates
I am currently carb backloading, or something close to it. I can only say good things about it for myself, but it’s entirely subjective. Have fun with it. I recommend going batshit nuts when it’s time to get the carbs in. Y’know, 2 scoops of vanilla ice cream, 2 scoops of whey, 70 frozen strawberries and copious amounts of oatmeal. It ends up being around 500 grams of carbs and like 44g of protein. Yeah, it’s pretty nutritious.

Lets be real, there is no satisfactory number. [/quote]
implying imaginary numbers are satisfactory

GOOD GOD MAN!
haha, well you wont’ have to worry about not getting enough calories.
I did carb night and carb backloading for awhile. To be honest on carb backloading i kept putting on weight, which was good (i was trying to bulk) but also frustrating cause much of it was fat. I guess not all of us can eat 2 dozen donuts and 2 pizza’s and a chicken every other night like the author said/implied I could. I lost quite a bit of weight on carb night though.
