Grip Training
4 circuits
100x8
150x4
200x2 (partials)
Extra grip session. Going to make this is a staple after my heavy deadlift session. My grip will be much weaker here but it won’t hamper recovery for the following deadlift session.

Bodyweight up a bit. Went back to a normal diet. Low carb just doesnt work for me. Current marcros are 175/275/70 for a sum of 2430 calories. I eat more when I feel I need it and less when I don't. Realistically I would make an aggressive 10% cut for the meet with a few days of water and sodium loading along with some laxatives, carb depletion and sauna. Of course I want to minimize those as much as possible so im shooting for 174-176 bw which still gives me about 9 weeks to cut 4lbs.
My Titan fan bike should be here next month to helptrying to get strong again

Oh yeah. BW dropping fast on 2400 calories a day. To recap, when I dropped to 177.4 before I was trying out low-carb. I'm now consuming 250-300g of carbs daily and almost back to that weight! Nice and easy day. No straps or getting pumped up for any sets. Tried to hold the 2nd rep of each deadlift set for a couple seconds at the top.trying to get strong again

Man. What a poor day. Messed up big time with my medication and crashes my estrogen. Doctor put me back on estrogen inhibitors due to it getting too high. I’m still trying to find the sweet spot which is more difficult than it sounds. I woke up this morning with achy joints similar to the flu hangover.trying to get strong again

Fighting some nerve issues in my arms. Going to take some time off from powerlifting and do some hypertrophy. When I'm less complacent i'm going to finally get around to scheduling an MRI as that's what the last neurologist recommended.
