^ i wish.
ok its time i got back into doing one of these.
Real quick history, been working out 4 1/2 years or so, prob spent half of that cutting! currently on my 4th cut i think, bout 3 months into it so its a little late already. Plan is to keep cutting till end of the year then get back to some calories!
As i write this im 91kg and it feels horrible writing that and being this light but at least im a lot leaner.
MY workouts are gonna be boring for a while, my strength isn't gaining but at least im not going down on most lifts. Im just doing lower reps and mostly compounds in a typical one bodypart a day split. As im cutting, i also do small cardio sessions after weights and on most off days. After weights is 10minutes or so of hiit, while off days are generally 1hr slower steady stuff.

bw + 15kg x 21 each
bw + 15kg x 20 each
bw + 15kg x 20 each
almost too pissed to write this as it was a disaster. Usual **** with squats. Groin starting aching badly so had to stop. I thought i could end with a 20 rep of 80 but by 15th the left groin said no and i dont want to push it incase i fuk something up which will kill all my cardio.
I dunno how im ever going to progress in squats, this injury just wont go. I might have to take a few weeks off from them and just stay with leg extensions and calf work.
grrr anyway either cardio tomorrow or shouldersMy journal http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showthread.php?t=5662511

Elliptical
35 minutes - 4minutes @ level 10, 1 minute @ 14.
Treadmill
10 minutes @ level 2 incline 12.3kph then 5 minute walk @ 6kph same incline.
Checked weight today first time in a while, 88.9kg, this is getting a bit scary.. and they say it slows down the longer you go? im going opposite.. i dont think i've lost any muscle and my strength seems to say the same, but i might be blind to itMy journal http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showthread.php?t=5662511
