Feeling fricken' fantastic! I'm 1 week away from a supposed rest week but I am still dreaming A LOT and lacking fatigue. My gains are slowing a smidge so I may push myself to 7 weeks of training before a week off.

Today I am not running because I will be moving to the new house. But I am sitting here drinking my coffee and I am thinking about some stuff.

 

I think the most important thing that you can gain from exercise is knowing your body. I know that if I have slept just a bit off and it is not a weightlifting day, wherein weightlifting is my primary focus, I usually skip cardio. I also know how my body reacts to certain dietary protocols and calorie levels and I can use this effectively to switch myself from bulking to cutting with no excessive weight fluctuations.

 

For instance; because of my specific biological situation I know that I can get ripped on 2,800 kcal doing IF and calorie cycling between 2,700kcal off days and 3,000 kcal on days. At this point my gains slow down a bit and I am more at risk for over training which tells me this is the lower end of my dietary threshold.

 

At an average of 3,000 kcal, 2,700 on off days and 3,400 on lift days over training is not touched even after 6 weeks of intense 3x week full body routines but I maintain a higher body fat telling me that 3,000 is the higher end of my dietary threshold.

 

Knowing that 13-15 days of training a month can allow me to squeeze every weightlifting session out of a 6-8 week training period which can add up over time.

 

Just some thoughts. (:

I haven't quit lifting. And I am not dead. Mom and I have been backed into a corner and are living off my income in a 200 sq foot space. I refuse to fail her or myself so I am still hammering my body and growing myself. I refuse to relent and give in to weakness and despair. You'll have to fucking kill me to get me to quit.

 

My new 'gym' is less than 50sq feet. More than enough with a bit of ingenuity to lift. I'm on a rest week meow but my 1 year anniversary of taking lifting seriously is coming up next week. I have not missed more than 3-6 days in this entire year.

 

Here are the current numbers from my past few workouts. I will start updating regularly next week.

Man, i love this ez bar. Because of the way it bends i can get it really tight to my body and drive up super smooth. Unfortunately it can only fit 261lbs with my plate setup, so i need to plan to get two more 45s and i also want an ez bar rated for more than 315 in the future. Hope you're well bro.

Sounds like a good plan, yeah I like the way they feel as well.

 

Nice work on the run, still hot with you?

No way bro, we are in the 60s up in the mountains. I have to be careful because i can just run and run until i am exhausted, upwards of 1 hr. And then i need to scramble to make up calories or the next day i just have no energy. We get golden yellow and orange and red colors in the fall, especially on the road i run down. It is just amazingly gorgeous to run in.
