I usually keep Fat and Protein and locked values and only modify the carbs.
Protein at 1g/lbm
Fat at 80g
Carbs at >50g on low days and +65g on top of maintenance calories on high days.
Example:
Mon, Tues, Wed Carbs at +65g on top of maintenance calories.
Thurs, Fri, Sat Carbs at maintenance calories.
Sun >50g
Myfitnesspal allows for Daily Goals which I have found to be very useful.

LOL, they are wanted to make a good many process upgrades/machine alterations before things shut down next year and have been after me to work as much as I can tolerate. Not going to work 10-12 hour days, 7 days /week unless it becomes mandatory, but I am grabbing the OT while I can. Figure I better earn what I can towards saving up for medical bills and stashing back what I can. I know I'll regret it later on if I don't.
Hopefully when all of this wraps up, there will be something good waiting for those of us that stick it out. They keep dropping hints that there will be and they are going to give us some good severance, bonuses, and insurance for a good while.
Are you going to be ready to jump into a wee bast with me around the second or third week of October?
Edit: What's the catch of the day? Trout? Hope you and the Mrs. catch the limit! Do y'all have catch limits over there?Last edited by almostgone; 08-27-2017 at 06:25 AM.

Good evening everyone. Late post and little behind on the thread. Will catch up later with everything.
Hit arms this morning, wasn't a bad session, but not the greatest. Sleep night before was horrible, as soon I closed my eyes dreams started. And it lasted all night. It was a very long night.
I'm thinking I'm gonna start taking my nerve blocker again. The foot and leg pain will not go away , very depressing feeling right now. But pushing through.
Arms did mostly supersets tris into bis. When it was possible. Had to single some movements out because of availablity.
One arm db over heads, into seated db curls palms up whole time.
Hammer strength dips into close grip hammer preacher curls.
Incline db curls
Rope pds
Db hammer curls, into reverse one hand cable pds
Wasn't bad but wasn't the best. I'll catch up on the thread on breaks at work tomorrow.
Hope everyone had a great weekend

I actually almost don't feel bad posting this lift up, LOL. Weights are still only ~ 50-70% of what they were, but a decent increase on either reps or weights on everything. Grip is starting to come back somewhat as well, which helps a lot!
Cable side laterals- 2 w/u. Work(L)- 8+, rest pause, 5+. Work(R)- 9, rest pause, 4+. Left arm is only about 50% of the right.
Reverse flyes off back of the bench- 2 w/u, Work1- 10, rest pause, 3. Drop a little weight and a short breather. Work2- 8 reps.
D'bell presses- 2 w/u at a light weight but high- ish reps. Went until form just started to break and then did 5 more slow, even reps concentrating on keeping my descent at an even speed.
Work1- 11 reps. Very short break, maybe 30 seconds? Work2- 7 reps. Drop a little weight and another very short breather. Work3- 9 reps. Decided to drop weight one more time. Work4- 7 reps.
B'bell shrugs- 2 w/u, Work1(front)- 13 nice reps. Dropped off a smidge of weight. Work2( rear)- 12 reps.
D'bell shrugs to fail- 11 reps.
44 minutes.There are 3 loves in my life: my wife, my English mastiffs, and my weightlifting....Man, my wife gets really pissed when I get the 3 confused...

Good morning everyone going to try to hit my chest today but after I mow the lawn.Been too busy the past week there is a lot to be said for nothing to do and being bored.But hey I did play musical furniture with the wife yesterday.Moved everything back the way it was 1 yr ago.:/ go figure

Hit back and bis last night. I'm really loving getting back into HIT for the time being. When done right it amazes me how much can be done with so little. I trained back first, which pre-exhausted the biceps. So I literally did only 3 sets on biceps (all working sets, no warm up due to back training). 1 set each on barbell, hammers, and preachers. All 3 to failure with 2-3 assisted reps to hit failure on the negative, and today my arms are sore as anything!

Nice, Cape! Will be glad when my shoulder will let me start working with the moderate to heavy weight d'bells again.
LOL, one thing for sure. I'll be assisting putting the dumbbells up with my legs instead of awkwardly hammer curling them up in an improper, wild swinging motion. I'm almost 100% defo sure that is what contributed to the scar tissue buildup and shoulder problems. Plus the left already had earlier trauma.There are 3 loves in my life: my wife, my English mastiffs, and my weightlifting....Man, my wife gets really pissed when I get the 3 confused...

Believe I will try to work in some squats tonight? Had planned to do them Tues. night, but I have 11 a.m. labs Wednesday. No way do I want to hit squats, get ready for work, and then have to fast for 10 hours or so. Pretty sure my glucose would bottom out.
Getting ready for a Poblano pepper stuffed with steamed chicken breast and rice. Maybe have a 1/2 grapefruit or 1/2 cantaloupe as well. The local stores have had some kind of super sweet/flavorful cantaloupe that is pretty f-in awesome.
After that, it's time to crash.There are 3 loves in my life: my wife, my English mastiffs, and my weightlifting....Man, my wife gets really pissed when I get the 3 confused...

Morning guys!! After 2 days off cause I couldn't lift my right arm. Dang shoulder was hurting. I am back, headed to the gym to get back done.
Yesterday was day 1 of carb cycling. Really hoping I have it right.
There is so much info out there. The carbs I am showing to eat is 300 on high carb days and let me tell you, that's a ton of food. I don't know how I can eat that much, but I will try.
