Down 6 lbs - 2 weeks, not all water weight - .9 % down body fat
Winter = less driving around aimlessly unless there is snow on the ground…
Winter = more gym time

PS. still bench 285 x 17 reps after 135 x 20 warmup

I’m not on a diet.
But gym wise, I think I hit a plateau. Hard. My max weight on a lot of my excersises (for reps of 8 to 10) hasn’t moved much since summer. I’m not sure wheter it’s just mental, or maybe I have really reached my limit.

you didn’t reach your limit, your empty fridge and not loading enough good food in you probably is.
that and you’re cut and your body burns everything too fast…
try going max weight , and then going down like 10 lbs doing as many reps as you can (should be only like - 2 or 3)
don’t rest much.

no such thing. u need to do different exercises to work the same muscles. do more wieght, and less reps (like 5-6). and EAT damn it

had a month off at the gym and now i’ve been back for about 2 weeks.
weight is up 5lbs 🙂 I’m 5’9" 178 lbs
Third set of bench @195 x 8 ( best its been so far )
Don’t want to gain much more weight, but we’ll see on how much improvement I can make on strength and getting more cut.

I wanna start running. I got 3-4 more weeks before I can be cleared for that. My Dr said I gotta wait so it can heal more.

Yeah, I know. I’ve been switching up my exercises every month. I’m also making an effort to consume about 4000 a day (just started), it’s just hard to get there without having to drink one of those nasty protein shakes or eat those shitty bars. Eating straight food to get there takes time, and sometimes I just can’t make the time I would like to eat that much.

myoplex deluxe premade drinks at topps. it doesnt taste bad, obviously already in liquid form, and it has 42g quality protein. has pretty much every vitamin/mineral u’ll need for the whole day.
they work very good for when you’re trying to put on mass :tup: even work well if ur not, and just need a meal on the run
trying to beef up on all qaulity food can get very expensive

Hmmm, we’ll see about that. I have yet to try a protein shake I liked. I guess it’s worth a shot.

Tell me about it. I can go through about $200 in groceries in less than a week. And that’s real food, i.e. cooking meals.

Indeed, but I look like I weigh about 150lbs, opposed to the 180lbs that I really weigh.
