Nice, might be the start of something big.

Any tips for improving curl numbers? Been stuck at 3x5x35 for a month now. I curl 3x/week.. too often? I've tried upping to 40 a couple times, didn't really help. I flex while doing it, trying to concentrate on getting the flex action to lift it.

Is there no inbetween? 37.5? Try increasing reps up to 3x8, then head to 40 3x3 and build from there.

I personally don't see how drop sets etc will help. You need to get the weight in your hand for reps & progressively overload.

Funniest thing to come from that show and some hilarious improv.

The end bit with Kenny Powers playing "I'm Still Alive" was the point of my post. I'm still alive guys. Just started a new job a couple of weeks back and have been too busy to get on here. Switched to training at 5am, Manu style. Making some squat PR's so all is good. Hope everyone is/are doing well...

I like training early but as I now use a home gym in my shed it has been FAR to cold over the winter. Can't wait to get back in their at 5am once it's warmer. Good work with the squat PR's.

Heavy upper today.

Time to see if we can't smash that bench PR.

We hope my man! Well see!!!

Can say that with teaching, any job in general, and of course the business world.
Networking = the way of the world basically.

250 x 3 on bench today for a new personal record for weight, and so excited it was for 3 reps!

Although 3rd rep was a little eh :/

Will upload the video when I get home and let y'all be the judges as always.

Anyone feel worse after a refeed on keto?

My training times differ day to day depending upon what my schedule is, and what I feel like doing.

Never tried Keto.
Interested..but not sure if I have that sort of discipline.
I like my carbs too much.

How are you liking it?

No inbetween, just 35lb or 40lb dumbbells. I've been trying to increase reps but can't seem to. I think maybe I'll deload this week and try the pausing etc as bob suggested.

[Lvisaa2]

The day after I'm hungry and have adaption symptoms again. Second day after I'm fine. Just stay in keto if you want. If you need a mental break then just use that day as a higher calorie keto day.

hows your setup? Bench is taking off for you right now especially someone with a larger frame.
Thanks again for the good wishes fellas. Just doing what I do, and hoping for the best.

Love my carbs too much too, high carb year round crew checking in.

I also have seen (From people who do keto) The sources may really mess them up (stomach wise) or feeling worse.

Sometimes yes. Just wanted to sleep sometimes. You won't mind it so much after your massive pump from your first workout after.

I prefer fatty foods to carbs so it hasnt been an issue. Hunger is less on keto. I was hungrier yesterday despite higher cals and carbs. Strength hasnt been an issue at all. Biggest issues are bloat and haven't really lost weight.

It may be stress related but i feel more lethargic and less energetic today than all week. Not sure I ever actually got in "keto" yet.

Biggest issue is I prefer foods like ice cream and pizza as opposed to pure carb sources. Anyone just done like a cheat meal instead of pure refeed?

Try it, see how you feel, take notes and adjust
Could always make your own pizza and get fro-yo (if you want a lower fat option) but its always much easier to just pick up the phone and get what you want.

Original video file corrupted?...
Might be time to get rid of the iPhone.
Nothing but trouble lately.


Had to retake it.
Only managed 1 rep on this one, but better than nothing.

Yeah may do so. I tried to find some of that stoneyfield froyo last night at two publix but no go. Pissed me off because I saw it earlier this week Had sushi last night so that was satisfying.

@Casey. Solid tng rep. I don't get how people bench with head movement. Works for lots but don't think i could do it.

Sorry, but "TNG Rep" ?

Edit : Nevermind, just realized what it meant.

Was wondering about that.
I tried not to "bounce" and moment lift, wanted it to be a controlled motion throughout.

Probably should have paused at the bottom?

What form of curls are you doing? Have you tried mixing it up with or adding some different variations?

Totally solid and controlled rep; looked great! gjdm

Looked controlled to me, just because it's tng doesn't mean it's less controlled. While pausing does make the chest do a little bit more work (and obv translates to competition bench which has a pause), if you don't normally train that way than it wouldn't make sense to max out that way. Still counts!

If I do want to throw in something like pizza I do it towards the end of the carbup so the extra fat doesn't interfere with glycogen uptake. It's not the end of the world. You could also switch to more of a TKD style where you time your carbs around your workout and don't have a full carb up day. Breaks it up a bit and you don't end up feeling so crappy.

No need to pause unless you are planning to do PL. It looked very controlled to me. No issues at all.

@master it would be hard for me to do that as I train early and don't have time to eat much before I lift and really dont like too much on me. How do you do the tkd?

[InItForFitness]

Okay great!
Thanks for the feedback

Hopefully I can keep progressing at this rate and 3 plates will be in my future by years end.

Try to have your spotter give you a better lift off and save your shoulders a bit. Also have him use alternating grip. Looked good.

I hope everyone is enjoying the weather today, taking some time to do something active outside the gym...maybe a nice relaxing bike ride/walk?
