Time to Get Cereal : B-Nizzle Style

[Bnizzle163]

Haha i was trying to dig through but i kept getting interrupted by all the damn food!

You need to make a cook book.

Haha no prob, sir. I'm glad to help/

I have considered the cook book thing several times... I just need to commit and get it done.

And just when I thought you already used an insane amount of toppings.... I hear this.

And Smolov Jr..... you must be glad it's coming to an end soon.

PB <3. I could eat that as my primary fat source and never tire of its rich, peanutty goodness lol.

I am, actually. It's a great program, but I'm getting tired of squatting

[Shazriki]

I also wanted to explain something about my food pics... sometimes I don't include everything in the pic. For example, when making a protein cake or a loaf, I add just enough of the toppings to make it look pretty before I snap a pic. I usually have more toppings. I will show you what I mean in the 4th and 5th pics below.

Guilty as charged

Yes, I love PB too. Hell, I used to put it on chicken all the time. Unfortunately, non-primary source fats usually add up to my current 45g, lol. Starting to increase in the coming weeks though. I'm trying out your marble cake today. I'll let you know how it goes.

PB on chicken? Really? how it taste?

Once again, great minds...

I avoided oats toward the end of prep and post contest just for this reason. Pb > er'thang else

I could imagine it would be pretty good with pancake syrup, with bacon on toast. Srs.

[Reid456]

Exactly how you would expect it to, I guess. Lol, its not a crazy combination to me, but I guess it sounds crazy to others. The real winner though is PB/mustard/chicken stir fry combo. So good!

That sounds pretty gross to me, haha. I guess I like my chicken savory more than sweet.

Alex, get your ass to an Indonesian restaurant now. They put peanuts on everything.

misc.
So as smolov jr wraps up, I must say, it has been a pretty cool experience. It was rough to say the least, but I'm happy with the fact that I got 2 sets of 275 for triples. I feel I could have gotten a third set had my set up been better. I can't complain though. I'll be deloading this week and squatting next sunday to see what's up with my max!

pumpkin cake w vanilla frosting and pb - before all toppings


after adding snickers, more pb and chocolate chips


funfetti vanilla proats w bananas


toasted chicken sandwich with steak sauce, cajun hashbrowns, broccoli, spooky tart


toasted chicken sriracha and ketcup bagel, onion rings, broccoli


junk bowl - chocolate base, pb, miniwheats, puffed wheat, marshmallow pebbles, banana, chocolate chips, spidey tart - forgot I had these lol

[MITCHAPAL00ZA]

awesome sesh today. TONS of squats, I dig it. Interested to see how your 1 rep max has increased. what was it before? Also, how did you like the funfetti oats? make any additions/changes besides the obvious banana garnish?

[anuragp122195]

Good job with the 275x3 squats! Some high volume squatting lol.

[tripleh210]

Alex, get your ass to an Indonesian restaurant now. They put peanuts on everything.

Also Thai food has the cashew chicken...same kinda deal

Best ever was 335 for a double. I was a fat 210 ish though . At this bodyweight, I believe 285x2 is my all time best. I was squatting 3 plates last offseason for sets of doubles and singles, but I was 190 then on my old scale, which would put me at 195 ish on the new scale. (I'm about 180 now)

So I rocked them with 60g. oats, 30g. funfetti mix, 30g. vanilla whey and almond milk. They were pretty nomnomnom

Good job with the 275x3 squats! Some high volume squatting lol.

Thanks, holmes! Trying to improve as quickly as your squatting

Also Thai food has the cashew chicken...same kinda deal

Thai food is amazing. I literally haven't had Thai in years, though

Hai guize!!

Just wanted to pop in and let you guys know I'm still alive. I've been doing a LOT of studying and very little lifting/cooking. I've been eating very boring, packaged stuff like pop tarts, granola bars, protein bars, shakes, etc. I'm getting back into the swing of things lifting wise tomorrow with a little squat sesh to see how that feels post-SJR . And after talking to a few people, I've decided to run 5/3/1 BB until I pepper in another SJR cycle for squats. Time to get dem wheels!! Looking forward to posting an epic update soon.

First part: you're not fooling anybody :P

Second part: Quest Bar Rep, no way your protein bars could be boring.

Cold pop tarts and protein shakes are boring to me, brotha

Quest bars are not so boring, unless I'm at work with a client. I prefer them warmed in the micro. The new pb cups are legit though!

Yay another person running 5/3/1 BBB. How are you setting up your accessories?

The only accessories I am going to run will be laterals for shoulders. I'm going to leave it as is

[Reid456]

The way I understand it, is that you do one 5x10 accessory after your BBB sets. Also, I've got the ebook if you dont have it.

[Bnizzle163]

The way I understand it, is that you do one 5x10 accessory after your BBB sets. Also, I've got the ebook if you dont have it.

That's correct, but from what I understand, you do a 5x10 with the same core lift starting with 50% on the first week and then increasing the 2nd and 3rd weeks. I may be wrong though lol. And yes, I have the ebook

Yep, well I keep the BBB sets a constant 50% but you can do 50-60% somewhere in that range. The weight seems light at first but after five sets its a little exhausting. I've got one more squat workout until I finish my first cycle (well, start the deload portion).

11-17-12 Squat max test day

squats
45x5
135x5
185x3
225x2
275x1
295x1
305x1
315x0 - aw poo
225x5 (3 sets)

misc.
Well, I'm squatting over 300 again, which is good, although I really wanted 3 wheels . I am surprised that I didn't get it because 305 flew up. I can almost guarantee myself 3 wheels before I run smolov again, and then I'm gunning for 3 and a quarter .

My camera is messed up, so I can't upload any pics at the moment. I promise I'll get on that as soon as I fix it.

[Shazriki]

This is weird, it's like everyone I know who ran SJR over the past month didn't get what they were expecting out of it. Maybe we should just stop lifting altogether

Don't get too mad Billy, you'll get it soon!

[MITCHAPAL00ZA]

ahhhh, too bad you failed ure goal, but IMO you probably would have gotten it if u were fresh. I had a similar 1RM trial a few weeks ago, and by the time I got to 315 i had already done like 4 "heavy" singles so It was harder than it should have been (and It pinned me to the safeties...worst feeling ever). 305 is still no joke so GJDM. and 5/3/1 now? awesome, I love it so far.

[MKW]

Pumped to see you're going to start 5/3/1. I started it yesterday and am really interested to follow along essentially cycle by cycle with you.

It is what it is!

I'm going to be repping 3 wheels like it's nothing soon. Just watch

You're [probably right lol. Makes me feel better now

Yes sir. I had good results with 5/3/1 last time I ran it, so why not?

We can be 5/3/1 brothers! woo-hoo!

I forgot how much I enjoy 5/3/1 training. It's simple and to the point. Despite barely doing any pressing movements for the past month, I rocked it out on sohp! I felt strong like bull. I'm about to go with the chica to get some Mexican food right now, so I've got to head out. Macros on burrito = bout tree fiddy.

homemade pizza for Bears party





hot dog beef and bean toasted sub


junkbown w quest pb cup!

loafin it up



meatball and pepper sub - dbl tarts


"godfather" pepper n egg sandwich on garlic bread bun w gravy



[img]junkbowl w caramel pop corn and quest pb cup[/b]

[MITCHAPAL00ZA]

doubling the expected reps on the work set, love it! Pressing is my weakest link ....also, was the crust home made for those pizzas? and are cinnamon roll tarts any good or does B.S. Cinnamon fill that void well enough.

[jpfaherty]

I am deep into my offseason and I can't stand the food pics. It makes me angry that I've become so lazy when it comes to food lol.

3 plates soon brother! You got dis.
