Hi, I'll do my best to keep counting for another couple weeks.
Also most people messing with potassium still have fat to lose. Still a little more potassium in your diet does make a little difference in pumps.
Wasn't sure what he was asking.
If you're really under 6% bodyfat, you will probably look good just standing their on stage not flexing. Just get lean then you can mess with little things like that.

ITT Bob is trying to be superior by tracking more precisely in his off-season...
Point is, are you going through unnecessary suffrage in order to hit your "limited fat macros" ? Quite apparent that most people can be a little more flexible as long as they understand total energy balance.
Too much good info in here so had to post to get to our "30% lulz" :P
As I transition into offseason myself, I tend to stop visiting the forums.... will continue to come here as long as Devils posts actively.
Thanks for the work & info m8Visit My Current Log -> http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showthread.php?t=144888731

Thoughts
Old mate joined me for a workout to check out the new gym equipment. Both fucking KILLED IT, PR's everywhere. Training with someone with the same goals and mindset enhances both people. I see big gains to come with this new equipment as a lot of it is supported and less pressure on my back. Came back and had a boss lunch, will fill in the rest later on at night
--------------------------------
Aye, it's enjoyment vs gains. If your gains are priority then great, but you can balance the two with often better results. Stress is a big factor for recovery and progress. 30% lulz definitely comes under enjoyment.
Thanks, glad we can talk about things here, feel free to share ideas over your off season too.Last edited by Devils; 06-20-2013 at 06:56 AM.

Explain how i am superior when i am stating my case. Sorry i do things different than say yourself or Devils, that is just how i like to be accurate, its how i have always been and how i am with everything in life given my profession in my real life is needed to be organized and always on task (as a teacher), it carries over into everything else i do in life (not saying no one else does)
In the end you can take it with a grain of salt, im not arguing to be better than person X or person Y its just how i skin the cat and do things
I have a personal trainer, so you think im going to wing macros and give him skewed feedback?
Probably not..
Carry on .. glad you know me better than i know myself. Please go..Last edited by The Solution; 06-20-2013 at 03:33 AM.

I tried HIIT for the first time yesterday on a stationary bike.
20 seconds all out / 60 seconds slow pedal
By the 5th wave my ass was cramping up and felt like it was trying to swallow the bike seat. I was skeptical that HIIT could be used as somewhat of a resistance training supplement, but I'm now a believer. How often do you do HIIT? Surely it is something that requires recovery. I can't see myself doing it 3-5 days a week AND keeping up with my normal legs training.PhD Candidate, Genetics.

You'll just have to try it. Stop counting for a week, will you stop eating what you normally eat every day? will you suddenly have 2 slices of bread instead of 1? would you have 2 cups of vegetables instead of your usual? and so on.
Are you weight stable now? will you suddenly expect to gain weight or lose weight over the course of the week but suddenly not counting? Give it a go.
Yeah man, that sounds like it!
It does require recovery, but at the moment you're not used to it fitness wise so it's killing you. Keep it up and you'll adapt. I like to do it at least 3 days a week, usually both leg days then 1 extra on a rest day.

hey devils what do you think about HIIT based around upper body movements such as sledgehammer swings battle ropes or going all out on the heavy bag? Just considering doing 1-2 lower based HIIT sessions and 1-2 upper based HIIT sessions a week

Nothing really to report, It was a scheduled leg day but I just had too much work during the day to get it in effectively. Tomorrow will probably be another rest day as I have a deep tissue massage on Sunday morning so It's not a good idea to go in with any doms. Looking forward too it, been feeling lots of knots and it's long overdue to get them worked on.
I'll probably have a little rest period over the next few days and pick up things again on Tuesday. I'll post some 1 moth progress shots too. Thanks.

This always happens to me, but literally the next morning I bend down the wrong way and got spasms in my back, so looks like I'm spending most of my weekend laying down in bed with the laptop feeling sorry for myself.
Me and the gf did go out for some comfort food in the evening, burger and chips and a tub of Baskin Robbins. The day ended up being near 5400 calories. Lets just say I'll be drinking a lot of fiber and water today.
Anyway **** happens, hopefully my deep tissue massage this morning will make me feel better and loosen things off a bit, wish me luck. I probably wont try another low calorie day and I'll just hit around 2000-2300 for a rest day macro's.

Massage was good, lower body only, got a lot loosened off. I plan to get my upper done this week or next. Ended up going to the gym and doing what I could, less back stuff so mostly chest and machines. Took new pictures posted above.
Comments
Thanks man
Yes, but mainly he's pointing out the failings of metabolic damage video, which I happen to disagree with. I'm pretty honest with myself and I know I cheat sometimes and get lazy and don't record things or skip cardio. Put anyone who is self reporting no fat loss with very low numbers and high cardio in a controlled lab setting and the numbers will be completely different.
