Hey! Full body workouts 3 times a week is a great approach and one that I use often. In looking at your layout above, you're very heavy on isolation work which isn't the best approach. You want to...

Solid workout today. I went in thinking it wouldn't be too hard, but it was a nice challenge. I definitely felt worked over after I finished. Calories are still down for my cut and it's still pretty...

I had to adjust my workout schedule a little starting this week. I've been doing a Sun/Mon/Wed/Thur schedule for quite a while, but I want to have weekends free. I took an extra rest day this weekend...

The program you're following is probably not the best choice for beginners as it's very heavy on the isolation work. At your experience level, you don't need an arm day for example. The first change...

On top of body fat estimates being pretty inaccurate, they're also irrelevant. 15% BF looks different on everyone depending on genetics, how you carry fat and muscle, muscle base. Think Victoria's...

Today's workout was crazy! I just finished my first working set on the pulldowns and I got a phone call that I needed to get home to handle. LOL, so since I refused to stop and come back, I decided...

Hijacking thread. LOL, my daughter just took her drivers course and test. Parallel parking was a joke. The course used a Kia Soul with a backup cam and she used that for the test too. You'd have to...

Since I made it through the powerlifting cycle, it worked out to be a natural breaking point for the bulk so I've currently transitioned into a pretty aggressive cut. The plan is to drop about 10 lbs...

Do they change the regulations for driving based on age? Here in TX once you hit 26, then you just have to watch a 2 hour video that covers things like don't drink and drive, don't text, etc. You...

First upper body day of the week done. It's tougher for me to adjust with upper body from the full body split to an upper/lower. My legs tend to be OK, but my upper body starts to vibrate bad and...

I actually ended up taking my deload week (last week) a little early and bailing out on the final week with one set of singles at 110%. The prior week at 2 sets of singles at 105% was all I had in...

I agree with the math and seeing the numbers. I planned out my workouts at home and purposely did the math without really looking. I have it in excel and just change the multiplier. LOL, so it wasn't...

I'm still excited about the increases I've seen this cycle, but bleh for failed reps. I was supposed to do 2 short and sweet sets of singles on the bench press today with 105% of max. I was hopeful,...

I would listen to the doctor and take the time off. It can be dangerous to lift after having your teeth removed. They'll talk to you about things like dry socket and avoiding the use of straws....

Luna's covered most of your questions, so I'll just be adding a little more here.

1. I'm carrying weight at the moment. Do i lose the weight first?
Most people don't walk around stage ready so...

Squat Day hit hard, BUT somehow I did it. No clue how or where I found the strength to do this. I really feel like I put everything I had into today's workout. Back squats at 105% max and the goal...

At your stats, you're talking about approximately a 4 lb loss of body fat. What's that, just under 2 kg? That's the difference between 24 and 26%, assuming your BF measuring is accurate. That's a...

You've got some cool stuff to play with! Wall balls, ball slams. I SO need those to take my agression out some days. It's fun to see all the stuff she has you doing plus watching the videos.
...

Thanks for jumping in. I always love reading your responses on here and nod as I read along with what you wrote. I have to say that I think this experiment in pushing this hard has run it's course. I...

Up today, hip thrusts. I'm glad that I had a meh workout where I missed my lift followed by one that I knew going in there'd be no issue. I guess I'd call it a nice combo of the good with the bad....
