Fasted 195.7

Weight is holding despite struggling to eat. Im still eating as much as I can everyday. Got another couple weeks before I’m off cycle.

Wrist is still banged up but I’m only wearing the brace at the gym and work.

We’re away for the weekend had to take pics in some goon lighting lol all this room has is lamps for lights. It’s pretty sweet

You were able to get up 20lbs despite struggling with getting the food down. Health/clean out phase then we go again but with some tweaks this time around. We'll add some more fats and lower carbs a bit which should reduce food volume.
 
we’ve decided to enter a health phase. I’m pretty much just spinning my wheels at this point . Really struggling to get food in. Weight isn’t moving anymore.

Nice work. What are your total macros? 4k carbs, 780 protein, 400 fat? Something like that? Curious what carbs you're eating.

As a former fat guy, I'm pretty terrified of trying to do a growth cycle. Mindset I've got to change, but intentionally eating at maintenance or a slight surplus is something I've never done. Usually diet/train or get fat. It's my next mental hurdle I need to clear b/c I'm scared of just getting obese, even though I'll start from a lean place.

It was supposed to be 900-1000g carb on training days. 225 protien and 50g fat. I did half decent up until the last week. I haven’t even really been able to break 900g of carbs , been pretty rough. I think it was just over 5k calories

Hunger is starting to come back. Nothing crazy. It is Still a little difficult hitting the macros but i am becoming more hungry through out the day.

I’m on vacation down the shore until next weekend. Much needed. I gatta deload my brain a little and rest the body. I think I found a little gym down there to hit. Ganna go check it out on Monday.

Coach is working on a program for the next push with more fats in it and some less carbs. Can’t wait for that. The volume of carbs for me was brutal. I don’t need anything to be easy , if it’s easy your not getting anything from it. but man that was rough 😂

Tryed to hit the fuckin gym today and there is only 1 on the on the island here 😂 what a fucking shit show. There plenty off island over the bridge but the traffic to get back over here is not worth it at all. I had to wait 15 mins to get on 1 piece of equipment this morning. I ended up just leaving and getting refunded 😂 people would even let you work in with them. I decided it’s best I just say fuck it this week and live off of rest day macros @Meetketchup . I won’t even think twice about throwing one of these ignorant little cock suckers through a window.
 
I had 2 random people on the boardwalk yesterday grab me and tell me how great I look 😂 I’m not even 200lbs. They both looked like they work out, but… Both were woman so I’m taking it with a grain of salt but man after the 2nd one said something I felt like a skinny Godzilla 😂 I payed it forward by telling the only jacked seaside cop on the boardwalk he looked great no homo. 👌

The rest days are killing me i just wanna fucking train. I’m ganna try going tomorrow, maybe it won’t be so bad on a week day in the gym.

at church had a guy ask my wife what i do what sports i play etc.
finally lean enough to get compliments.
im ready to get fat again lol i hope my body allows to me to join in the 1000carb club pain. if we can keep the fat off.
 
If you can get to a gym do a hard full body workout, considering you’re limited to going often on this vacation. Coming off cycle would be good to stimulate every muscle.

Fuck that club man lol i hope i don’t have to revisit that anytime soon 😂
 
You guys lose your ex-fat kid cards! 1k Carbs is glorious. :ROFLMAO:
If I could eat junk food and hit 1k of carbs I think I’d be fine lol 17 bags of potatoe chips , steak sammiches and pizza. I could do it lol but fucking rice… and more rice… oh and cream of rice. Maybe some potatoes, 🤮🤮🤮 . Nastaaaaaayyyyy. I’m at a point now where if I put rice in my mouth I immediatley am not hungry any more lol

We’ve switched gears on the food. Coach is lowering carbs and increasing fats. I feel much better over all just doing the little bump we’ve done this week. No bloating at all. This should be fun for our next push phase. I’ll get some check in pics up this weekend.

My wrist is also still banged up lol this thing is taking forever to heal. I haven’t sprained anything since I was a teenager lol What a pain in the ass.

Weight dropping and hunger increasing since wensdays check in. Feeling way better with the fats and lower carbs. Wel see how it feels when I’m pushing the limits with food again but right now this is very comfortable

Alrightttttt got a nice new injury! Threw my back out at work wensday swinging a sledge hammer. I haven’t had it looked at but it seemed like a muscle sprain or something of the sort in my mid/lower back close to my spine. I Could barely walk. Couldn’t stand , breath taking cramps and sharp pain. This started to go away yesterday and began to feel better, then my lower back around my herniated discs began acting up pretty bad from over compensating my other injury. Today it hurts to stand again, also hurts to sit. lol fuckinnnn mint👌 haven’t been able to train or do cardio but I did manage to get some half ass check in pics this morning after a half hour long hot shower.

I circled the spot it’s fucked up. It’s still swollen. Might go get it check out tomorrow if it’s not better. I just don’t wanna spend the money for them to be like yah it’s a strain here’s some more muscle relaxers lol

Throwing out the back fucking sucks! I feel you on that one. I got a herniated disc c3 i think 5 - 6mm.

Goes out every so often.

Foam rolling helps a ton just painful as shit.
Tens machine helps a bit and just tons and tons of stretching to get it all packed back in.

Yah there no fun. This is the first the really acted up in a while. I always have lower back pain from it, but the sharp pain I haven’t had in a while down there. Pretty miserable. I did end up going to the gym though! I’m hitting cardio right now. I can’t sit or stand without being uncomfortable and in pain, but for some reason walking around makes it feel comfortable lol so that’s what I’m doin. Ganna try a foam roller while I’m here. I also got a brace on. but it’s a little tight so it makes it feel worse if I wear it to long. It’s the wrong size but the only one I could find that goes up high enough to cover the injury.

Just about done taking muscle relaxers and ibprophen. I stopped the tylonal 3s 2 days ago. Yesterday I took 2 muscle relaxers and no ibprophen. I’m hoping to only take the one muscle relaxer this morning and that’s it. Wel see how th day goes

I did some back rehab excercises I learned when I herniated the discs a while back just some baseball swings on the cable. I did some hi/low, some mid and some low/hi swings. Still pretty damn tight back there. Just the pain is going away. Hoping to be back training by tomorrow or Friday. Wel see

First full session of training today since last wensday 😬 I couldn’t go balls to the walls. I’m still pretty tight. I just kept the weights low and got as close to failure as I could without straining to much. I’ve been using a foam roller for the last couple days when I come in for cardio. That seemed to really get the back to loosen up and out of the rut it was in. I used it inbetween most of my sets today. The water I was holding from the meds I was taken seems to be mostly gone. Time to progress forward for another couple weeks until the next injury 😬

Backs pretty sore from training yesterday. Definitley still got some shit going on back there. I’m just ganna keep working it little by little every day. Train how ever I can for now. I don’t plan on hitting legs yet. I can tell I’ll for sure re injure it if I do.
