supsup, Q!

sub'd

Great to have you aboard brotha

i guess you're rootin for the cardinals though you live closer to the giants lol

anyway so you're not at the Y anymore but at Gold's?

happy belated to your boy Q!

Thank you! Yeah close to Giants but always been an A's and Cardinals fan. Started following the Cardinals as a young teen watching Ozzie Smith, the Wizard of Oz! We still go to the Y, mostly hit there when the kids want to go, otherwise hit Gold's as it is a bit closer.

I finally got caught up in here. Unbelievable work ethic and dedication.

That Anabolic Window looks perfect, I have always been a FIRM believer in feeding your muscles at the appropriate time.. I know a lot of people say it doesn't matter but to me it will always matter. I will be getting a tub of that no doubt!!!

Than you CM! Trying to work on my consistency and get rolling again. I love Anabolic Window, makes for a great Pre/Post meal and I agree, I've always been a fan of post workout meal when available and at least a protein shake, ExtremeOne74 broke down the importance of Protein/Carbs pre/post to me and since I've been sticking to it and I do notice the difference.

[coolaidml]

I will be following along Always been impressed with your hard work and dedication!

Right now my goal is to drop to the 260 to 270 range over the next 6 weeks. It is very doable assuming I keep my macros in line.

Hefty Pull Session..

Thank you brotha

great looking sessions my man

Thank you, feeling good overall, really just focusing on movements, trying to listen to the body and put out what the body can take, so not the normal 3 or 4 day split necessarily.

Glad to have you aboard! Looking to keep things rolling here for sure.

Same here on the rows, supported using an incline bench works even better for myself. Weekend was good, had a little birthday party for my son and got stuff done around the house, how have you been?

The supported rows work okay for me. Hit or miss. Happy Belated bday to your son. Hope he had some fun .

How do you like those plate loaded pulldowns. I wish more machines/cable stacks were plate loaded. I think that has a more "free weight" type feel to it but of course being on a track. Best of both worlds. Hard to find those though.



How was the weekend man?

Just been busy working here. Nothing too exciting haha.

I like the plate loaded pull downs, you can switch up the rotation on doing one arm at a time or both etc. I will use both, weights and cables, both seem to have their benefits I think. Weekend was pretty busy overall but good!

[qstick99]

What's up all, great day in overall, actually walked over to the Y on my lunch break and hit some chest and triceps, then this evening while the little one was swimming, my wife and I hit cardio then some leg work. Felt great to hit legs, taking it easy on weight as I do not want to aggravate the prior leg injury. Used my Anabolic State this afternoon and tried some of what Country Mike sent me this evening. I'll get more into some thoughts on his care package after a little further use but so far really good!

Motivation is pretty good overall, biggest deal is working around everything. For a while having so much going on I was giving in to easy to just doing the minimal, I've adjusted some things and plan on keeping to the plan.

Some solid sessions there bro! Keep up the hard work.

Went back to PPL from Arnold's blueprint
Blueprint is amazing but need to get some things worked out before I go that crazy again in the gym.
