Also side note does anyone get pissed when they are out and you get stopped by people asking wow you looo great I’d what do you do or what do you take so you take the time out of your day to answer and they immediately start talking over you and suggesting what they do etc. like why the hell do you even ask me if you won’t fucking listen. Just comical that’s my rant for the day haha.

LOL

I recently was at a BBQ with a bunch of my wife's coworkers. I couldn't eat much because everything was coated in sugar, very few healthy options. Couple of guys there (both obese) asked what I do to stay in shape at this age. Just like you describe, before I could finish half a sentence, they were both talking over me and patting each other on the back about how much weight they used to be able to lift and how easy it is to count macros. So I had to sit there hangry AF, not eating, watching these two fat guys from her work talk about how easy weight loss is as they both sucked down Sugar covered pork ribs. Was so hard to keep my mouth shut.

I’ll give the rest of the day update now cause not much is going to change lol. One more meal left. Spaced em out decently today. I’ll have over 10k steps in not counting cardio. At least 1.75 gallons of water will be drank today probabakt a little closer to 2. Take a couple vitamins tonight. I’ve said it in other threads but I’ll take a gummy tonight to mellow and relax might sit outside and read some more. Little one leaves for vacation with her ma so I’ll have to find way to keep myself occupied haha. Felt good today though shoulders were wrecked from the intensifiers but in a good way. Tomorrow check ins with coach so I’ll post some updated pics for you guys and note any changes etc. weather got a lot nicer here so that’s a plus as well. Hopefully the 2 car parts I need will be in my tomorrow afternoon if not Monday morning so I’ll have a little project with that.
Knee is holding up great as well as any other previous injury sites as well. I do have some more bpc coming so I’ll start that back up as well. Hope all you guys took today by the balls. Tomorrows another one fellas.

Absolutely

Egos are annoying. I have mine too and I'm working on it but if I ask someone that's has made the progress I'm looking to make, I'm gonna listen if I ask him a question. So annoying

Looking great by the way, strong too

Thank you man
 
Alright so check ins completed. Slept for like a solid 8.5 hours. Took the dog on a nice walk again it was a beautiful morning. Stretched and took my vitamins and hit my 40 mins of cardio. Weight was right about 201 average for this past week which is up a tiny bit from last week not even a pound actually haha but in my opinion I look tighter you guys can be the judge from the pics I’ll post below. With that being said we are keeping food the same this week. Making all cardio 40 minutes from the 3 days of 35 and adding a double rest pause on all pressing movements. I’m excited to get this next week rolling cause for whatever reason today’s pics screamed progress to me which isn’t saying there hasn’t been a bunch already haha. But also prioritizing taking this weekend to prep my mind and body to hit it hard. As I’ve mentioned before I’m OCD in a lot of ways so it’s important to me to have my laundry done, food prepped, vitamins and supps stocked and loaded. Calendar written and planned. I do keep a daily journal as well ok too of various notes. I know it might seem excessive to some but it keeps me on track focused and takes the guess work out. I see so many guys saying it’s hard to get in a routine or I don’t have time etc. but if you shut the tv off or put the phone down and just did a portion of the prep work I personally do I feel like those people saying those things would find life easier. With that being said pics below.

Nice little rest day today. These are usually really hard for me but I just embraced it. Took a nice walk, finished a book and watched some football after working on the car for a little. Still got well over 10k steps in without trying. Gunna lay down later and watch that new alien series and knock.
 
Rise and shine everyone another glorious day haha. Got a solid 9 hours of sleep, took a nice walk this morning with the dog. Than got in my 40 of cardio and honestly didn’t wanna do it but said I chose this I want this it’s just 40 minutes just go fucking do it. Needless to say I feel much better after. About to go have meal 1 and than prep some food for the week after and relax as much as possible for me. Excited for this week and to see what changes are going to come. Reflecting back I feel like this was another good week for me and the puzzle pieces keep falling.
 
So no night update yesterday checked out rested and enjoyed but I ended the day with about 13k steps and got a solid 8.5 of sleep. 2 gallons of water downed yesterday. As well. Woke up a little groggy idk if it was allergies from the weather change or what but got up walked the pup took the vitamins and I had my shake but used the strawberry shortcake roll sample I got from ryse and I have to say I was pleasantly surprised with the taste, mix ability was good. Waited about 30 tooo my pre-workout which is still the ryse as well and got into legs A I’m gunna jump to the end before I list the workout but Jesus were my legs pumped haha. Like skin testing just brutal. Today’s session I think for the most part is going to be the same weights that I used for next week as well. There were some progressions in weight ( progress is progress) and some slight progression in reps but I think this is going to level out next week until I can just solidify the entire rep range and square up form and tempo etc. nothing wrong with it but I’m OCD and wanna be perfect haha in whatever sense possible.

Leg press (feet low+close)
4pps+150x 154
Same x 13
Same x tough 13 I count it cause it was full ROM and good form but brutal last rep

BB RDL these were slow controlled and good hinge
265(up 5lbs) x 13
270(up 5lbs) x 11
270x 10

DB stationary lunges these were brutal today idk why haha but I matched the first set reps from last week with same weight and increased 1 rep on the second set
70’s x 16
70’s x 16

Hack squats ( I’m an idiot and thought this was the 2 sets of 20 from legs b was just ok the zone so the first set smashed the rep range and than you’ll see the progression after
3pps +10lbs x 15
3pps +15lbs x 12
3pps + 15 x 10
3pps+15 x hard 10
Going to stick the the 3pps+15 next week

Calf raises (did 2 solid warm ups to get the blood going)
4pps+150 x 24
4pps+ 175 x 20
4pps+175 x 19

I’m gunna be hobbling around the whole rest of the day haha but it felt like an amazing workout happy with the pump and the results. No cardio today cause it’s legs day but I’ll still have my regular day activities and steps etc.
 
Legs were just fried today but I loved every second. Again all meals etc followed to a tee one more left I’ll probably have around 8 tonight. With the rest day still managed to get in like 12k steps. I’ll drink 2 gallons today for sure. Tomorrow a push day and we added some rest pauses in so I’m excited for those. Gonna chill the rest of the night crash out early most likely and hit it hard tomorrow.

Good morning you beautiful bastards. Glorious Tuesday started already. Got a solid 8.5 of sleep daughter called me at 3 in the morning upset she was throwing up with her ma but other than that it was a solid night and I’ll always answer those phone calls. With that being said I gave myself 30 extra minutes to wake up and adjust and took the dog on a pretty long walk it was crisp this morning so perfect weather for it. Came back has my pre workout shake 1 scoop of protein that shirt coded tub of ryse cookie blast came in and I think it’s blows the strawbeeey shortcake flavor outta the water. Than had my vitamins went to the bathroom again and had my pre workout and creatone. Side note I woke up super hungry this morning and last night but water haha. Workout today was a push day with 2 rest pauses on all pressing movements and I was fucking smoked haha. I started to feel a little gassed on the second set of wide grip standing rows I know the book doesn’t reflect it cause I was in the zone and actually progressed but fuck lol. Killed the workout which I’ll list below and today was the added 5 minutes of cardio to 40min total. I did a minute and a half warm up walk blasted the 40 at a 10 incline and a 3.7 to a 3.9 speed and than had a minute and a half cool down walk.

So little down on the step count today only 9k but that’s also not including cardio. Took the day to relax and unwind. Some little things around the house. Nice walk with the dog etc. usually that how if day is extremely hard for me but I’m learning to embrace them especially to get peace of mind and let the body recover too. Tomorrow is pill day which has always been one of my favorites. Hopefully I don’t get any wake up calls tonight about my kid throwing up 🤣.

Good mid week check in with coach, going to finish out the week strong and see where check ins Saturday take us. Today was a pull day and man did I love it intensity was there, felt full in the muscles the whole workout and than finished it with 40 minutes of cardio at 10 incline did 3.5 speed for 2 minutes than finished on 3.9. As much as I hate cardio the 40 isn’t bad at all and still very manageable in my opinion. Usual routine woke up went to the bathroom , recorded weight, drank my protein shake, took my vitamins, did my pins, drank my pre-workout and then got the workout underway. I’ve been putting a huge emphasis on stretching before hand and stretching and running through some poses after the workout as well.

DB pullovers
85x 18 (up 4 reps)
90x 15
90x is 12 will have to increase weight next week

If need be I don’t give a shit haha. Let’s keep cashing checks and snapping necks hope you guys kill the day
 
Good day today. Solid workout, might have found a nice new piece of equipment don’t wanna jinx myself I’ll update if it works out. Gunna have between 10-12k steps not including cardio. 2 gallons of water today for sure. Spaced out meals and water accordingly so hunger wasn’t too terrible. Tonight I’ll take the dog on another nice walk beautiful weather, take my night vitamins/supps, and get some rest. Tomorrows legs B which I’m excited for Cause why not it’s leg day. Got my fantasy football draft soon so figured I’d update now. Let’s get it fellas
 
Contemplating life this morning was brought to you by legs B lmfao. It was brutal I planned on sticking to last weeks numbers etc. but once I got under the squat bar that was out the window and I said fuck it cause everything felt so good and like it was clicking. I definitely left everything I had under the weights and thought about dying a couple times but the leg pump was insane and it was all fucking worth it. Woke up after a solid 8 hours of sleep woke up at 1 to piss like a racehorse but other than that slept through the night and I can’t wait to see what this CPAP is gunna do for me. Took the pup on a walk like usual took my vitamins and supps protein shake and pre workout and than stretched everything out for about 10 minutes when I felt really loose. Blasted some music and got under way.

BB back squats
370(+5lbs) 12(+1)
375 x 12
380x 10 I could have had 11 it would have been sloppy so I racked it we weren’t counting shitty reps around here
