Nice job. I’m trying to keep it in my brain to just do lighter speedy work when I’m feeling like crap.

[MyEgoProblem]

Nice job. I’m trying to keep it in my brain to just do lighter speedy work when I’m feeling like crap.

Called an audible when warmups moved like crap comparatively

Brain was just telling me to be smart, pull some weight off and take a W. Thought id just carry that to bench as well.

Speed work IS hard - having to explode into bands isn't a cruise - but it's very different to going over 90% or close to @10

It’s definitely tough but yeah not the same type of tough.

At least you were smart

[EliKoehn]

Great lifting bro.

And yes! Low Hex is substantially easier.
Much easier than sumo too..
The ego bar.

Good for strongman work, shrugs and carries, and just as a variation for boredom tho no question.

I do like the open back design on some tho, great for split squats ect

The other day iI did 40 straight minutes on stair climber at 44 stairs/min

@Eli not sure if I said it directly but congrats on the deadlift, I hope you feel proud of it

@Film, good to see a vid from you!

Thanks guys. Really appreciate it. All of you are well ahead of me, so the good word means a lot.

@Film wasn't expecting the sound effects lol, nice touch there. Lift looked super easy for a heavy pull.

Haha yeah it was dumb but made me laugh.

And yeah I’m trying to play with picking a top single that stays at a pretty low RPE.

Seems to be working quite well on my deadlift, so I’ll see if it translates to something worthwhile on this brief diet break before transitioning into a longer cut and more bodybuilding oriented programming.

[EiFit91]

Great work guys and congrats Eli on being in the 1200 pound club!

Sorry hearing about your shoulder problems BG, hoping for a speedy recovery.

Haven't been logging, doing a weird setup where I work out almost every day just a few exercises and I enjoy it a lot as I hate rest days lol. So I'll probably log just once in a while as the alternative would be spamming the thread daily.

Today's workout:

Weighted chins +90*4 (PR)
Wide grip pullups, 15 (BW 197 lbs)

Ring facepulls, 8 reps
Farmer's walk finisher, 80 lbs in each hand (1 minute)

The farmer's walk has been doing wonders for my shoulders lately. I don't have heavy dbs so carrying a couple of plates in each hand which means my grip gives out quite quickly lol

[CW47]

Strong work everyone!


May 30, 2022
Floor Press: 150 pounds x 5/4/4
Larsen Press: 140 pounds - 3 sets x 5 reps
Lat Pulldown: 4 Chains x 15, 15, 20

Well rested and ready to get back to it. Pressing went great today.

[SaviorSelfJT]

I bought a fitbit tracker, going to wear it for about a week to get an idea of what my resting heart rate is. I'm really curious to know if its high or not

The ONLY reason I bought it was for the heart rate monitoring. Otherwise my 20 dollar casio watch that I've worn almost nonstop over the past 5 years is better in pretty much every way lol. I put zero value in tracking steps and answering calls/reading texts. The casio is more durable and never needs to recharge, and can easily go back and forth between stopwatch and time, much more cumbersome with the fitbit

---

There's a few workouts I haven't logged, mostly just cardio and machines

I upset my shoulder a bit doing something. I think it may have been the chest fly machine. And my forearm muscles are pretty upset too. Nothing major though

I mainly track steps to ensure when I’m dieting I don’t let my activity level drop too low. Basically ensuring I keep it consistent throughout, so I’m not subconsciously being too sedentary.

But if you’re not too concerned about that, then yeah not much utility. I also like to not have to always have my phone on me to play music.(apple watch)

[EliKoehn]

Alright, and with that, the big eating stops and I begin my aggressive mini-cut. I'll aim for about 2200 calories for three weeks. Should trim off approximately everything I've gained recently, and I'll be content to stay around 230 or so after that.

OHP:
185 x 1

Flat Bench (T&G):
3 x 10 at 225

[SaviorSelfJT]

Is that an OHP record? That was a hell of a push!

I’m already having fun with the Fitbit, you can create your own clocks/apps. Last night I stayed up till 2 working on a new clock for it lol

Indeed - hence my semblance to an electrocution victim lol.

Those always bothered me a little bit, never having the distance from your person of constant data monitoring of your vitals. Just seems like it's crossing a barrier it shouldn't, personally. That's just a personal choice though, of course.

According to a calorie calculator referenced on this site years ago which was quite accurate in my previous cuts, 2200/day for 3 weeks should have me lose about exactly 10 pounds of fat, at a near sedentary activity level. I'll probably throw in some jogging or moderate activity anyway, but just want to estimate conservatively.

For training, I'm thinking of doing something like a bastardized deload, and keeping overall volume relatively low and final sets in the RPE 6-7 range. Energy and recovery potential will go way down on a severe deficit like this, and while I might be able to get away with some heavy work, I find it stimulates my appetite quite a lot, and might not even be necessary for just three weeks.

I'm thinking something like 3x8 @6-7 for week one, 1x frequency for every major movement pattern, and a couple of optional exercises. Then probably 3x5 @7 the following week, then 3x3 @8 the final week. Keeping protein above 180g/day along with this should prevent any meaningful loss of muscle, I would think.

Would any of you change anything about the training side of it?

[CW47]

Very nice OHP Eli - quite the grind.

Do you have a link you can share to that calorie calculator?

Thanks. It was pretty ugly, but at least the full RoM was there and it wasn't a push press.

Nice bench session RapidFail! Seems like you're making progress.


June 1, 2022
Snatch Grip Deadlift: 265 pounds x 5/4/4
Romanian Deadlift: 250 pounds - 3 sets x 5 reps

Weight is still feeling lightish. Think I need a bit more knee bend on the snatch grip deads because part of the reason I programmed them in was to get more quad use in my deadlift. Kind of got away from getting that extra knee bend when my knee started bothering me a while back.

RDL's felt great today. I'm finally starting to figure out how to put the focus more on hamstrings when doing this variant.

[EliKoehn]

^^ Good to hear the RDL progress. Going back to lighter weight coming off of the program, it seems I'm noticing some form improvement carryover, myself.

Conventional Deadlift:
3 x 8 at 315

Squat:
2 x 6* at 245

*The guy next to me said he counted seven reps on the first set of squats, while I thought it was only six. Was quite drained at that point, so I might have absent-mindedly done another rep anyway.

Noticed a big improvement in pace, explosiveness off the floor, and tightness with these deadlifts. Almost wish I uploaded just as a reference, because I don't think 3 plates have ever felt that swift and coordinated. However, I have begun my pretty aggressive caloric deficit and by the time I was done with those, I think I was out of gas, because the squats felt very heavy and quite unpleasant. Experimented with a wider stance and intentionally tried to work on tracking the knees farther forward, as I noticed my shins are still rather upright on my recent heavy squats. Working on that could help, I think. My calves are spindly so they could do with being brought up in this way to improve the lift overall, I think.

[Filmbuff81]

Nice job fellas.

Helluva grind Eli. I wish I could mini-cut on 2200 calories to lose 10lbs of fat in 3 weeks lol.

Todays workout.

took most of this week off. My mom has pneumonia, and I think that’s why we were all sick again with chest colds. She probably gave us a bit of her big after we visited.

Or we have it to her and basically had walking pneumonia for a month lol.

I haven’t done any legs for a week so definitely had a pump going today. Squats felt heavy until I got to my top set.

[CW47]

Eli - Congrats on the deadlift progress. Always feels good when something seems to 'click' on a lift.
Filmbuff - That looks like a good way to get a leg pump!
I also wish I could cut on 2200 calories. That would be a somewhat aggressive mini-bulk for me, lmao.


June 2, 2022
3 Count Paused Bench Press: 175 pounds x 1 rep
Close Grip Paused Bench Press: 135 pounds x 6 reps / 130 pounds x 6/6

3 Count bench was a 9.5 RPE. Watching the video back, it was only about a 2 second pause also. Definitely have maxed out on this, and will plan to swap it out next cycle.
On close grip I did the first set at 135 because I was lazy. Changed it to 130 for the 2nd and 3rd sets. All went well, and ended up around 8 RPE.

[EliKoehn]

Well, I'm pretty heavy (just got barely above 250 before starting this) which makes the earlier pounds come off pretty fast. My weight loss patterns from last year had me losing about 2 pounds a week at about 2700, so this should approximately do it if I stick with it. Nice thing I find about it being only a few weeks, is that you can trade sustainability with brevity and still make similar progress.

I feel bad for you on that CW, if you would gain on 2200! I'm a big eater, but that's still really not a lot of food... If you do martial arts and strength training regularly, that sounds brutal having to maintain beneath that.

[Camarija]

Spent the day at the beach and got a sun burn.
I've been tanning over the last couple months and got pretty dark but it wasn't enough to prevent the burn.

Before burn:


After burn:


I'm probably cutting until the end of June.
It's always surprising how much fat there actually remains to burn.
The difference between a faint 6 pack and a deeply carved 6 pack is always more weight lost than I'd thought it'd be.

Cheers bros! Keep training hard

*edit*

My cut has been consistent around 2,400 calories a day. Originally losing 2 lbs a week and now it's only losing about 1 lb a week. I could probably drop my calories to 2,100, but any lower would cut into my macros/micros too much and just feel like death lol.

[EliKoehn]

I dunno.. delt striation is a pretty good sign that you're doing things right. By the way, you look like you're flexing into your avi pose with each rep lol.

[CW47]

that sounds brutal having to maintain beneath that.

Exactly why I haven't done a real cut in like 3 years, lol.

[RapidFail]

I've been lean bulking since the start of February.

Weekly average weight started at 75.9kg (167.4lb) and is now 78.2kg (172.4lb). I was on track to gain 2lb per month, but lost some weight in the past two weeks when I've been sick. Bulking calories started at 3050 and are now around 3300.

I've definitely gained a bit of fat, but my upper abs are still visible when flexed and I've still got clear delt striations and faint pec striations - but I tend to still have delt striations long after my abs disappear, I just seem to store all my fat on my belly and love handles.

[CW47]

Low Bar Squat: 225 x 1
High Bar Squat: 225 x 1

Worked up to singles on both variants. Oddly, high bar feels better (and moved easier) than low bar for me right now.

I needed to do something different for squatting today though because what I've been doing isn't working for me. I'm dreading my squat workouts, partially because of how fatiguing they are, and partially because I'm still experiencing discomfort in my left knee (probably tendinitis). I've skipped lifting on multiple days recently because of it, which means that it's impacting all of my programming. I'll probably change to something low volume - top single and a back off set has worked well for me in the past. Even if I don't progress on squats, something like that should allow me to maintain for now while I work on improving my other lifts.

Pull Up:
8, 8, 6 at bodyweight (~250)
Flat Bench (T&G):
3 x 10 at 225

Well my friend brought some cold beer on the weekend and I didn't say no, and was also spontaneously offered a French dip sandwich yesterday and I didn't say no to that either, so, I overshot my calories somewhat. Just being transparent. I did lose a few pounds on the week, though. Final reps of both ending sets were probably @9. Pullups felt more detrained.

Not feeling great lately, though. Maybe I've caught round 5 or whatever it is of covid, since I slept for most of the whole weekend and was still tired and felt low. Also, while the strength was decent for taking a week off from benching, one set winded me in a way similar to when I actually had covid back in January. Probably not a big deal and I'll just keep an eye on it.

There’s been some gnarly chest colds going around and my mom just got pneumonia so you could just be super run down after the meso you just did and crushing some PRs.

But definitely keep an eye out. I’ve found myself far more fatigued this year after my 2nd or 3rd run in with Covid.

[Filmbuff81]

My QL and Neck are pretty funky right now so I decided to pivot back into some hypertrophy focused training sooner than later.

Still some big movements, but basically adjusting lower body training so I can keep upper body utilizing more volume and have less overal fatigue.

This basically means adjusting my split away from as much full body work.

There’s also slower eccentrics and longer pauses involved too.

First week = a little less volume and further from failure and I’ll slowly ramp things up a bit as the weeks go by.

Generally I try to do a 5-6 week ramp and then a deload. But if I feel bad I’ll hit the meso shorter or I’ll chop sets for one of the upper and lower days to dissipate fatigue for part of the week.
