Great lifting, and great job on the BF drop!

[SW]

cp: Thanks man. It means alot to drop that fat.

Because of how incredibly active my life has become, I have decided to change the diet up a bit to boost health and sustainability. For instance, today I took in well over 1k calories ON MILK ALONE. Almost as much on meat. Absolutely no fat on the meat, or any sweets today. Milk and water are the only things I drink. A little bit of vegetables, and the worst thing I ate today was mac and cheese, and it wasn't even that much. Busy from sun up till sun down today.

Bowled a 186, 168, and 224 today. Avg. day in YABA.

[galileo]

Drink. A lot.

[SW]

Gal: You got it. Nearing a gallon of milk per day now just at home. This may come as a shock to you, but I just polished off the last glass of milk in the house...must....have....more.....

Meal1: 4 doritos, 1 glass of milk, 1 son of a bitching granola bar. Makes me feel better to cuss them

[SW]

Meal2: 1 glass of water, 1 glass of milk, 1 ae choc milk, 1 slice breakfast pizza.

[galileo]

I meant liquor.

[SW]

Galileo/Xian/Christian/Meatwad: On occasion...... :alcoholic

Meal3: 1 glass milk, 6 or 7 kool-aid frozen ice cicles (free of fat ) 2 large homemade tacos, no sour cream or anything bad.

Good so far today Gonna go chop wood in a while, and tomorrow lift and play bball before school, then lift (maybe) after track.

[SW]

Meal4: 1 glass of milk

Worked outside for 1 1/2 hours, 1 hour spent splitting large chunks of knotted wood, and half of one spent carrying it uphill. Then watered all animals, after saddling a horse. Typical farm day.

Meal5: 1 glass of gatorade, 2 slices white bread with pb on them.

Will have 1 more meal, medium (cutting medium that is) size.

Bowler Huh and a farm boy to boot. I used to bowl myself. Not really any time any more. Bowled in a league for years 189 avg at my best. As with everything else it went to sh!t.

Figured I'd drop in and check ya out. Will keep up with ya.

[SW]

midee1: Hey nice of you to drop by. Keep with me eh? Well I'll keep with ya and watch teh midee recover.

Meal5: Ok so large cutting meal lol but hey, I worked hard today. 2 bowls rotini and cheese, 2 slices white bread with pb, and 1 glass gatorade. Expect more gatorade tonight.

[Southern Beast]

I peek at your journal from time to time and decided to comment. I don't want to keep feeling like a journal stalker.

Dropping from 30% to 20% is awesome, great job. You're strong as hell, too, and a very active individual. It's cool you're on a farm as well. I always enjoyed helping my grandad with his horses back in the day.

[SW]

SB: Welcome, and you can comment any time you want Thanks for your kind words man. I love my active life

Diet

Meal1: 1 breakfast pizza slice, 1 carton choc milk
Meal2: 1 granola bar
Meal3: 1 large salad, shredded cheese, sunflower seeds, 1 pizza burger, 1 carton choc milk, 4 beef sticks.

Feeling fairly hungry. Went to track, stretched, ran some, did some activities, stretched some more. Then went and threw shot and discus for about a half hour. Then lifted. I ****ed some records up today!

UPPER as calf feels like **** and I def. don't want to hurt it more.

Bench
135x5
225x5
245x5
275x4 4 rep pr
275x2 little rest between 1st and 2nd 275 sets. Rushed in general.

Seated rows (felt absolutely murderous towards my back today)
180x5
250x5
285x5
320x5
330x5
340x5 5 rep pr
350x5 5 rep pr
350x5 5 rep pr As I post this, I know some of you will probably not believe this. Trust me, I felt amazed throughout this. My max on these is 370. I assure you I've never lied and will never lie. That's so stupid I couldn't begin to explain it. My reason I can give for this explosion of strength today is that I just WANTED is soooo badly. I gritted my teeth and pulled with all my might. This is the result.

Db curls (like taxes, hated widely, but essential)
40'sx5
50'sx5 pr tie
50'sx3 pooped from seated rows.

[Coke]

Excellent seated rows, I've never seen anyone do so much...I mean damn - ...nice flat bench too.

[SW]

CoCoa: Hey thanks man. I had no idea I'd be pulling that much. Thanks much for the props bro.

OW! I coughed and my back hurts lol. It's never hurt when I coughed before (must be the new level I've pushed myself to) but damn I feel like a champ now for the effort I put forth today.

Meal4: 4 1/4 inch 3x3inch pork steaks (quite small), mashed potatoes, 3 glasses of gatorade, 1 glass of milk

Will eat the following tonight, even though I'm full (I need the protein for building in my sleep).

Meal5: 2 slices white bread with pb. Lots of pb. My steroid

Can't wait to get back to doing legs, killed me today to walk out of there without doing box squats. But I won't be fooled into hitting them up, then straggling outta there with a severaly ****ed calf.

[cphafner]

great session, those rows are unreal!

[AdmiralDan]

Yeah, nice session. you must have an amazing back if you can rep 350 for rows

[SW]

cp: Thanks man, surprised me too.

Admiral of teh ships: Don't know about amazing, but powerful. Thanks bud.

Back sore as a mother today, this doesn't surprise anyone lol. Going to do some job shadowing today. I got stuck with a physical therapist, but wanted to watch a personal trainer. Dammit. Pretty much everything I worked yesterday kills.

[SW]

Ok, I weighed 240 at the start of this cut. (about 1 1/2 months ago)
I've adheared to a strict cutting diet, with refeed every 3-4 days.
0 pop or caffeine.
Low fat calories.

I weigh 255 as of today with 20% bf.
Explain THAT one to me. I'm definitely stronger than I've been, and I know for a fact I've lost fat, that's the the tester told me, people are beginning to tell me, and I know because I can see it now. Has my body taken all this healthy food to heart and used it for muscle, or WTF because I haven't gained this much weight this cleanly since....EVER!

EDIT: Let's not forget I still lift religiously and all the activities I do. Just wierd.

[SW]

I've decided to drop cals more and to keep running and everything. I believe almost all of the weight gain I've experienced is muscle built. I have been getting stronger, but most definitely not fatter.

[AdmiralDan]

wait a sec, if you are dropping fat and putting on muscle, why change? give it another week and see if you continue to drop bodyfat. if so, then you have one of the best diets and routine combinations ever

:withstupi

I want in on that little secret!

[Canadian Crippler]

I agree. Don't fix what isn't broken.


(P.S. you are a beast!)

Excellent job, but I have no reason not to believe it. At the work gym I was doing 200 one armed, at my new gym 150 is difficult with both. It's impossible to judge weights on non-freeweight exercises. But, either way - excellent job!

[SW]

Adm14al: Ok, but man it just makes me nervous to gain like this while eating this many calories, I just gotta tell myself it's A GOOD thing.

C4199l34: Won't be fixin'. Thanks bro.

Stargazer: Yeah, I've heard of weights being diff at diff gyms. Freaky, ain't it? Hope to keep gainin' like this, it's soo ****ing fun. Thanks for kind words bro.

Worked outside for 1 hour after job shadowing today.

[AdmiralDan]

i know what you are saying but if you are indeed losing bodyfat and putting on lbm like you are saying(i have no reason to doubt you), that would be amazing and you would be crazy to stop
