    Don’t worry, bud. One day you’ll get over 200lbs and be a real boy

    it's okay to be sub-200, i wouldn't brag about it with a letterman's jacket

    he has an IG of course, can't remember his name though.

    i decided to pause my programming when my back locked up. i was already struggling to fit all the work in, 5 days a week and needing a minimum 2 hours to complete every session, i was at least a week behind schedule.

    So far, so good. 450 on squat and 485 on deadlifts flew pretty good in this first week.

    i switched to powerlifting after I finished the 3 months of powerbuilding. the S/B/D all called for 7 or 8 sets, the first week of strength block. i increased my fatigue level to see if it lowered the set volume and the conventional deadlift day was 1x6/5x6 deadlift, 4x6 pin squat at 8 rpe, then hamstring curls 3x12. which still took me 2 hours, maybe i'm just slow.

    i usually rest for 3-5 minutes in between heavy sets. just the squats and deads can take like 45 minutes.

    I’ve started to split my heavy dead’s out on a different day from the accessories cause it just took so long. My day 1 is a Sunday so having my squats and accessories wasn’t a big deal. But I’m on a time crunch during the week.

    Squatted 405# for 3 gross singles. 315#4x3

    Full on cut mode activated.

    Already been dieting but I'm cracking down harder. First order Trifecta food delivery is coming tomorrow. Went with 2 meals a day /7. And want to see how it goes. Plan on also just making crazy amount of chicken and meal prep hardcore leading up til Mexico. I wish I didn't fuck it up and cut sooner but whatever. Bought a GoRuck back and a 30 pound plate to finally add in some conditioning work. I just can't bring myself to step on a treadmill. I just feel so lame.

    Buy a sanddune and strap heavy weights to yourself and get in great conditioning/back work.

    Tweaking your back and catching some sinus/flu shit 2 weeks out is not ideal

    365 on bench was a little tougher than I was expecting this morning. That might be heavier than I want for an opener.

    It is not. Get rested and well, man. Don't waste the entire block pushing too hard for the final weeks while you are sick.

    Thanks. Hopefully I can salvage next week and be good to go. Sleeping, eating, and doing a ton of unilateral stuff to help rehab.

    We'll see. My strategy has been to try to make the previous meet's third attempt, the next meet's 2nd attempt. Since I didn't hit the 501 until the 3rd at the last one, I have to see how much I want to jump on my 2nd. We'll see how the next couple of weeks go.

    Makes sense. You can take a 7.5kg jump on each attempt and go 220-227.5-235 and that would be a nice PR.

    Thor did a double of 1003, hopefully gets that 501 to trigger that feud even more.

    Pullups, pushups, step-ups, single-leg DLs, L-sits, hypers, that kind of shit. Trying to thru-hike the AT this summer so not on a training regime per se, just keeping active.

    I can’t shed Coop’s content in my YouTube feed. He’s shelling out serious money or blowing someone at YouTube, maybe both.

    Has he ever moved a bar? Guy just seems like a collector with an unironically ridiculous mustache :twocents:

    Nice. I did something similar. Went from 260 down to 220. Started running more, doing a bunch of shit on the pull up bar with rings, etc.

    Going to get back into it this summer. My oldest son (10) said the magic words..."Dad, I want to get stronger." Feel like the garage gym budget will increase now that I can blame it on my son needing the 'proper' equipment.

    It's fun but having a max DL of like 155 isn't.

    yeah, but if you can maintain that weight until you are 90-something you would be the strongest person in your age bracket.


    that's what i am targeting.

    I’m built to deadlift.

    But bench press now...yikes. But hey, I’ve progressed on different push up variations.

    I hit a top squat single of 550 @9. Went for a triple at 505 and just ran out of gas on the third rep and failed. A huge PR double and first I’ve ever repped over 500 so that’s neat. 12 days out.
