SPREADSHEET UPDATED!

waiting for Caprica to make me an awesome new banner & i'll start the next thread.

No pressure Caprica.

Must include a pic of dat ass so every time we open it we can be erm.. inspired? LOL jk <3 <3

[Nosepull]

Still at 170lbs. LOL!
IDK tonight is deads, legs & cardio.
My new gym doesn't open for a few more days.

Does anyone use an app on their phone or tablet to track their workout?
I might need something that doesn't need internet access to do this.
The bb.com app needs internet access plus it's kinda sluggish.
Ben looking at a few for my 7" tablet since i'll be loading that up with stuff to watch while doing cardio might as well track my lifts on it also.

I love the Jefit app - big database and you can add your own workouts. Tracks your volume over time and attempts to calculate and track 1RMs. It has easy support for supersets and circuits and whatever. Lets you set rest times on your routines and honks at you when it's time to get off your ass and lift.

I paid for mine, but I don't remember what features were missing from the free one. Great app.

I installed both jefit & virtuagym & so far virtuagym is annoying me by asking me to go pro every time I try to add an exercise.
So i'll play with jefit.
Thanks.

haha i'm not even going to weigh myself until like 2-3 days from now.. rough weekend as i thought it would be.. took yesterday off from work, had a good ass workout (Push day - Chest/Shoulders/Tri's) and ~2300 cals

btw i bought the iphone app called gym buddy and i use it EVERY time i workout.. it's great for keeping a log of your workouts and it gives you "props" every time you best a record

ya know what?
Since I upped my cutting cals a few hundred a day my weight has gone up like 5lbs however my pants still fit the same.
The next month will be interesting because I know i'm still in a deficit.
Just one with more carbs.

Think I am going to take my leg day off tonight may do some light cardio or just do some AB exercises as my left leg is sore in a weird spot from the attempted running this weekend I am guessing I'm way over due for taking a week off from lifting try to take one every 8-12 weeks I was waiting until Memorial Day week when I am going to try to have my kids for most of it. Nutrition is on track not hard cutting at 1900-1950 calories a day.

150.8 today after cardio!! **** YEAH
dropping to 1800 calories/day really helped

[TelusLob]

Haven't weighed in a couple of days. Did some light cardio last night.. Going to do back tonight. Eating about 2100 calories today.

[blacksilo]

well it's a company pot luck today so we shall see how that goes and i had a couple beers last night outside since it was so nice here!! (like 70 and sunny is really nice here lol)

[elgatito71]

One more week guys most say i have a lot of fun cutting everyone here i think did a great job.... lets kill this last week...

[NitrogenWidget]

Binged last night.
Got home from work, started to lift, after warmup of bench started feeling dizzy & shaky.
Murdered a bag of sweet potato & sea salt chips & half a box of fruit snacks.

Felt a TON better about a half hr after that.

Then took it easy the rest of the night.
I've been on my feet more during the day at work, no longer chained to the desk.
Think it's time to up my cals again because obviously 1400-1500 isn't enough.

Going up to the 1700-1800 range until end of the month & see how that works then continue through may.

will post progress pics next week & take measurements. Weight is a useless number right now since my water weight is all over the place daily due to carb spikes.

Going by the mirror and how my pants fit now.

You have killed it during this what did you start the thread at seeing that you are 6'1 and 164 makes me wonder if I'll be happy with what I see in the mirror at 170 and 6ft I guess you did a dirty bulk of sorts before this cut right? I think I'll just have to bulk once I get to 170 or maybe 165 depending how I look the closer I get since i've never bulked I don't think I have as much muscle base as you did when you started this cut. I am happy where I am though as well I hit my goal and tomorrow will maybe post a small loss or stay the same.

[Nosepull]

Well, tomorrow's my last weigh-in before I go on break. I'm reasonably confident of sub-150.

Also my last lifting session for a week. Usually I do four sets in the 8-10 rep range on most lifts, but I think tomorrow I'll go for broke and try for some 3-5 rep heavy sets. Been a while since I've gone TEST YOUR MIGHT mode.

[DefiningMoments]

can't wait to see and post progress pictures next week!

thanks bro... and yeah when i first started to loss weight i when down to 175 it's on my bodyspace and from there i dirty bulk to 207 took me like a year but i was not focus enough for this cut i was... i will bulk again but this time slow and clean and see where those that takes me... but you have done a great job also...

Man I hate those binges!! I had one last night at Mcdonalds although it wasn't a "binge". I went out with my roomie and just had a night out for us. Anyways I went in a surplus by like 500-600 and Im going to try to make up for it today and with cardio next few days...

I have a body media fit and I was thinking of putting it on again. I wore it for like a week and i got around a 2800 cal average as maintence for the week. I wonder if I should maybe up my calories a bit. I lost like 3 lbs but it could of been water weight from my vacation. I wonder if water weight could carry over a week? Im at 1900 cals despite whatever my work outs are and my job week looks like.. I should try to see if I can go by what my body media fit comes up with. I

We are probably the same weight when water is gone.
It can take 4 to 10 days for water weight to go away with me.

i'm keeping it in the 1700-1800 range & going to try & get cardio in every day.

I really don't have that much to drop.
Just want my luv-handles to shrink back down to their pre-fulk size so when I properly bulk this summer my shorts don't get tight on me and I don't squish out my swimming trunks. LOL!

[NitrogenWidget]

168lbs. Maybe I can some kind of drop by wed if I keep my weekend under control.

[cyanotikat]

Mmmm gained 4lbs so far xD

[stingray72]

I had a binge day yesterday. I probably gained a pound of fat in one day. Thats not going to happen any more.

[Winfamy]

Weighed in at 151.2 for a -0.2 for the week. Will probably stay around maintenance for another week before transitioning into a proper bulk, just in time for the new thread! haha

[scohen158]

184.0 lbs today so stayed the same as last Friday weight wise but I was able to lift more this week than last so putting the extra calories to use and maybe my mind is playing tricks on me but notice more visible muscle and can see the vague outline of my top 4 abs after an ab workout or in the AM. Loose skin and time will have to pass before it's more than just an outline.

We'll see if anything changes by Wednesday but either way I am happy with the progress this Thread and onto the next one.

[live4gs]

227 for this week. Got rid of one pound. Not lost a lb. since I do not want to find it again.
Hope all have a great weekend!!

[blacksilo]

164.4 this week ... no real change
