I thought I didn't need squats either. And had considered quitting them.

Until I realized my quads were getting strech marks.

I have been doing this program for around 6 months or so.. This deep into it, I have never sat around so much doing absolutely nothing when I am not lifting. By the light day of the week, I am beyond...

I absolutely go below parallel! That's mandatory!

One thing about squatting.. My right knee was bugging me for a long time while squatting.. A few workouts ago I decided to focus all my attention during the squat on 2 things.. Making sure I am not...

I am on my 6th or so cycle and just did my week 5 medium day today. My week 5 heavy day left me on my knees praying for a second chance at life. A few weeks ago I started lowering my calories, and...

You're above me.

What part about having 600 calories in you after you wake up being a positive thing don't you understand?

It fits my macros bro

u mad?

I make a 600 calorie or so shake the night before and put it on my nightstand so when I wake up I can drink it first thing. This buys me some time to take a shower, and wake up properly allowing my...

Allpro, what can I substitute Bicep curls with? I broke my arm/wrist in the same spot twice when I was younger and the supinated grip makes it hurt real bad. I am on cycle 5 and have added pull ups...

I am 6'2, 187 pounds. I started at 169 and have added size to my frame with a diet based on meat protein sources, eggs, milk, lots of peanut butter, and compound lifts. Keep it simple.

Just got done with heavy day on week 3 of my first cycle.. So far all is well and I am enjoying the workouts. Medium and light days are great too with shorter rest periods. I have only one question...

I counted my calories today for the first time exactly and my macros ended up being 41% protein, 38% carbs, 19% fat. 4,103 calories with 428 grams of protein. Good?

Haha, I have been doing it for 2 months with minimal fat gain. And I also do drink a gallon of water a day at work to stay cool. *I am sticking with milk for as long as I can.. I will eventually...

DTKefta, welcome. Some things I can recommend to you from personal experience.. Read all you can about the diet aspect of this and treat it like your lifting - it's that important. Is the 5x5 program...

So, I'm kinda wondering the same thing.. I'm actually going to count my calories for a typical day on Sunday when I have all day to record my foods and stuff. If you are way over your recommend...
