So just when I thought I was done and ready to pack it in as far as this country, I got called on a 36 hour fly away mission. NOW I am truely finished (I have no gear! turned it all in yesterday)....

After spending 2 days traveling and hating life, I decided to lift yesterday just to get some tension out. I don't think I should've as I realllllly wasn't up for lifting. And my reps show it

Straight Leg Dead Lifts
Good Mornings

Today has been a good day, but a sad day as well. The sad news: my beard has met its demise. It has had a good run, and I do admit, I can grow a pretty epic beard. But as we wind down and I get ready...

Just in case you didn't know, Det Cord is a fun explosive. I ended up shattering 2 mirrors in our Gym due to the brisance of 6x 1000' rolls detonating at once. Ooops. Ha!

Bench Press Week 2 (3x3)...

Everyone's a special snowflake. Everyone gets participation ribbons. Everyone is a winner!

That whole mentality is what is wrong with so much of the world. We're all human. Period. More often than...

OP... 16% BF isn't fat. The cutting secret is simple: Set a reasonable limit, reach your limit, decide to cut, set your cut weight, reach your cut weight, Repeat. Are you...

Belts are a great tool for assisting with trunk stability. They assist with bracing your core. A belt is not going to hinder progress at all.

That being said, you should always start light....

This^^^

If the program isn't telling you exactly what increments to use, my rule of thumb is to start at roughly HALF (or a little more) of what my final heavy set is, and then make jumps...
