[NicholasMango]

Starting a lean bulk now that I know my TDEE
Mostly because I'm sick of failing all my fking lifts. LOL

Lifts today

OHP Failed 107.5 epicly back gave out in third set. I got three sets of 95lbs, but the rest times were insane

130lb cable row 3x5 Didn't fail this somehow. LOL
3x5 25lb(per hand) curls. Probably cheated a couple left hand curls. lmfao.

Calories: 3262
Protein: 134.4285
Pancakes for breakfast with milk.
Had 3 cups of frosted flakes as a snack. Since cereals are fortified nowadays this actually gave me 100% of my daily recommended values for quite a few micro nutrients
Had some wings after that.
Having some dinner rolls and chicken now.


Lifts today:
3x5 130lbs bench
3x5 130lbs bent over rows
3x5 130lbs cable rows
3x8 decline situps with 45lb weight. (Did these on a decline bench. used the bar at first. was awkward so I used a plate after that.) Figure as long as I'm not working my core on squats and DL's, I should isolate it.
1x20 (to exhaustion) BW inverted rows on a smith machine.
1x30 pushups (to exhaustion)


Threw in some extra exercises cause I had time/energy. Tried to keep it balanced.

This is a joke right?

[NicholasMango]

This is a joke right?

Nah. Its
100% of Vitamin b12, folic acid, vitamin b6, Niacin, Riboflavin, Thiamin, iron.
40% of Vitamind D, C, and A.

This isn't everything I need. But its quite a bit.

[Jaywalking]

Okay I used to like kinda hate you but you're ****ing funny man

Why aren't u squatting and deadlifting again?

[NicholasMango]

Hurt my back. I should be able to get an MRI in a week or two, and that'll let me know if its safe or not.
I'm pain free at the moment, but the fact that my back gave out during OHP last time makes me still kinda nervous. I'd rather miss out on some gains for awhile than **** my back up.

And personally I think my legs are disproportionately large compared to my upper body anyway. (Calves are at least 2-2.5" larger than my arms.)

Calories: 3222
Protein: 170

Lifts
3x5 105lb OHP (Forgot my microplates. So yeah. This is as close as I could get to the same weight. Last rep was really fking hard, right arm went up first, but I got the left up and locked out. Lol.)
Pullups with 20lb added weight. pyramid sets. 5-4-3-2-1
I didn't do this on purpose though. I just failed all the other reps I tried. lmfao. Maybe since I'm bulking now I'll actually be stronger next time. Technically that's 15 reps the program requires so....successful lifting session? I guess?

[ErikTheElectric]

FYI:

1. You're eating too many calories
2. Eat a vegetable, it won't kill you.
3. Cheese pizza? Son... Get on THIS level.

1.) I don't think so. Losing a pound a week at 2500 cals means my TDEE should be around 3000. So 3250 should be just fine for a lean bulk.
2.) No. But it'll make me sad. D: I don't know how to make vegetables taste good. :/
3.) Hnnng. Does look better than my dominoes.


Weekly average
Cals: 3252.2
Protein: 153.84


Weight change +4.6 lbs.
Obviously not real weight. Not surprising considering how much I ate so late last night.

My point exactly..

[NicholasMango]

My point exactly..

Erik. I did not gain nearly 5 lb in one week on a 750 calories jump.

5*3500= 17500k calories
17500/days= 2500 surplus a day.
3250-2500= 750kcals.

My TDEE is NOT 750. not even close. its AT LEAST triple that.

I had 1.25 quarts of milk. Whey, three pieces of pizza and two cans on pop directly before bed. That's a significant amount of weight that isn't going to be gone in the morning.

The milk alone weighed 2.6lbs. another 1.5 for the pop. idk what pizza weighs.

It's pretty obvious that eating within a few hours of a weigh in is gonna throw everything off.

[NicholasMango]

Calories: 3247
Protein: 136.4
Breakfast: eggwhites and toast
Snack: cheddar cheese.
dinner: 4 pieces of pizza.
Snacks: corn pops and milk, Banana corn pops smoothie (Was kinda meh. Not bad. Not great. Acceptable. Gonna try with less banana/more cereal. Maybe some yogurt. Maybe protein powder?)
Desert: sock it to me cake

Lifts today:
3x5 110lb OHP
Sets of 5-5-4-3 pullups with 20lbs Ended by hanging with elbows at 90* for as long as I could hold.
Felt a LOT stronger than I did last time. (Funny the difference between bulking an cutting huh?)
I screwed around with some hanging leg raises and various decline situps. Tried using a 55lb dumbbell as a weight, but couldn’t find a good way to hold it. I’ll just do cable crunches from now on.

[ErikTheElectric]

I was not saying that you gained 5lbs. My point was that your weight is jumping, it's obvious that you're consuming more calories than..

1. You're tracking
2. Estimating

[NicholasMango]

Calories: 3215
Protein: 147
Breakfast: Icecream.
Lunch: Cajun chicken tenderloins and alfredo noodles
Snack: More icecream.
Dinner: Ramen
Snack to fill macros: oreas and milk

Not estimating. Everything is weighed unless the package list the calories per unit or volum. (Ex. 2 oreos=140 cals 1 cup milk=150)
I'm pretty religious about it. Drives my family nuts lol.
I guess we will see what I weigh next friday? I'm guessing pretty close to 1lb above 163.3.
