    Today was "pull" so the regular mix of pullups, rows, and assorted curls. My back is freakishly strong.

    I've always shied away from front squat. I started lifting in high school for football then onto the power lifting team where it was all about moving the weight and not necessarily good form. I have a tendency to want to go on my toes with a back squat as it is. I've been really concentrating on trying to correct the bad form habits I learned years ago. So for now its lighter weight until my form confidence catches up.

    Anyway, tomorrow is legs so I get to attempt GHRs again, yay! I posted the vid fail in female and that douche Wyoman made some ****ed up comment. I wanted to reply he is both retarded and blind being that he handed out the win in that pullup comp to the entry where the form and ROM were laughable. I got no less than 30 pms---about half from complete strangers---saying that was the most ****ed up thing they'd ever seen.

    cals---1208

    So, I'm coming down with a cold... going to lift heavy right now, then it looks like I'll be resting. A week or so of rest shouldnt mess up anything as long as I eat well.
    Acrawlingchaos, your front squat is beast. I dont have the lower back to lift that much!

    AS for me I am making my additions to beef week. That burger post earlier in the week was mouth watering. I had way too much pot roast tonight. Would have taken pics but could not stop eating. But the score at the grocery tonight was 6 pounds of these for $2.99 pound. Soon to be converted to the huge.

    Today's calories a little short again.

    cals 1498
    Pro 255
    fat 37
    carbs 27

    I really want to go to the gym when I get off, but I have a question. I know on a cut too much cardio can be detrimental to LBM. How much is too much? 2x week at moderate intensity for 30 min? Also what about pull ups? Really want to do them unassisted. Can I work in cardio, abs and pull ups on say, Tues and Thurs (off days)? TIA.

    Yes.

    This whole cardio-phobia movement is starting to piss me off.

    What was a shift from exalting it from the be-all, end-all of fat loss has morphed into some irrational fear that walking to the mailbox is going to burn up scads of muscle. It's not.

    As long as you realize fat loss comes from your nutrition and anything else is icing on the cake, you'll be fine. 2x a week, 5x a week if you want. Moderate intensity, or up the intensity if you are able and so inspired.

    I have both cut AND bulked successfully running daily.

    Thanks. You have inspired me with the pull ups. I've always wanted to but have never been able to get more than 2 or 3. Right now maybe one.

    HEY KIMM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Welcome.



    ....@ Jedi, I agree with discdoggie. While I tend to do little cardio myself, there is nothing but good than can be gained by cardio. FWIW, most individuals with "average BF" can actually lose 2-3 pounds a week with no muscle loss. The dangers are VASTLY overstated..

    This too ^^^. Losing as little as 2 pounds can up my bw'd max reps by 3 or 4. The extra weight really DOES make that much of a difference.

    Kimm, based off your previous pictures... this will just be a normal thing for you! Welcome aboard!

    Gjedi, I agree with DDoggie and Chaos. Cardio it up dude. The more intense the better! I'd try and up your calories though dude, try and add some more meat in there or something. You're sitting at what I was eating about a week ago and I felt I was losing way too much mass (then again I have intense cardio every morning and swim for 30+ mins 4 times a week)

    Do what you want brother and adjust as needed.

    Lower today. I got a handful of single GHRs.

    Birdiefu, how many calories are you taking in?

    How often are you re-feeding, and what's the count on those?

    Kimm- yay, welcome and you are gonna so kick some tush

    DD - I get about 145-148g protein/day, with incidental carbs from fiber and some veggies (mostly lettuce, zucchini, cucumber and other low cal veg) and incidental fats in lean proteins (trimmed chicken breast, venison, egg whites, etc) plus 10g fish oil/day. I have found some creativity in cooking on this diet, which is a must or it will get boring quick!

    Cals on non "refeed" or non "free meal" days are at about 860-910. Refeeds consist of same amount of protein, about 280-300g carbs, and fats below 50g (usually around 35g). Most of my refeeds are complex carbs, or if I make baked "sweets", I cook with dextrose. Some fruits, but total fructose stays below 50g. Refeed days I get in about 2075-2150 cals, still below my maintenance. "Free meal" days are usually like light refeeds, total cals around 1250-1350. One refeed and one free meal day a week, which I time to be PWO.

    As my maintenance with lifting only 2x/week and no cardio is lower than it used to be (now about 2400 than about 2750 I used to be at this same weight), my average deficit the past 4+ weeks is about 1250, for about 2.5lb/wk, which it seems like it's been at, minus my initial water weight loss. At my starting/current BF% levels, I will only run RFL until 6 weeks, before going to maintenance for a bit. Then I will hopefully be lean enough to run UD2.0 for the rest of the challenge.

    I'm surprised at how well I'm tolerating this, before I would cut at most 500 below maintenance and that felt like torture, lol. This is surprisingly do-able, especially with the twice a week "goodies" I can have. Lifts still actually going up a hair each session, I've been losing a good proportion of lower body fat, and lbm seems to be holding in there. I have been following the RFL layout scrupulously, though.
    Gym PRs:
    SQ: 360 x 1, BP: 165 x 1, DL: 330 x 2, OHP: 110 x 2

    Best meet lifts (raw w/wraps):
    SQ: 365, BP: 155, DL: 350, Elite total of 870 @165

    Closest thing to a log, but better cause it's vids! = www.youtube.com/user/birdiefu

    Hit the gym this morning. Did abs until I thought I was going to fold up like a pocket knife. Looked at the pull up machine and thought I will conquer. I then proceeded to do 5 bw pull ups! What an great feeling. I finished by doing 3x6 with min assistance and 30 min of cardio. That was the good....the bad...I've been hanging about 210 for the last couple of weeks, but I know my diet is pretty tight. This afternoon I weighed 211.4. Not happy.

    Don't let that scale mess with you man. If you're behaving and not cheating yourself with your meals then keep moving forward and worry about the scale next week. (I'm at 189 from 186 so I know the feeling)

    When I work nights things seem to always go awry, so I try not to hold to much faith in the scale until I'm back on days. Not sure if its a water thing or maybe sleep or just metabolism but it seems to be consistent with either a stall or slight gain. But it still trashes the morale (which is why I come here ).
