Learn martial arts. It’s probably safer.

Forgot to mention. Start from the outside and work your way in. Force them to pack up in a tight mass.

**Capebuffalo** · 01-25-2018, 12:14 PM

Kali is a great one. With training and a karambit you can really do some damage.

Yeah. About 147 grains of happiness one at a time.

its a cool rifle but I don't know if its that cool.

**David LoPan** · 01-25-2018, 05:38 PM

5K buys a lot of ammo. I have been told that I need to cool it with buying any more guns for a bit. But when a good deal hits, I buy it. Why I also keep the cash in the wallet that the MRS does not have to know about. Never know when someone over extends themselves and you can pick up a gun like this for 2K or less.

How do your knees hold up to 24” box jumps?? Between my back and knees, I would not be very good at this.

230 this morning, that's 16lbs lost! I know I'm losing muscle, and probably not the best strategy to win the comp, but I'm more focused on my long term goal. Plus since my back not letting me work out, losing weight by dieting is really all I can do. I'm sure coming off a long cycle is the reason for some of my weight loss. If back better, I will probably run winny last four weeks

It's most improved. I'm sure I am not going to win the comp but winning with the motivation just from being a part of it. Mrs BG amd BG have been quite. Body is changing for the better so I am happy either way.

You guys do not listen to me! I started getting a funny feeling throat (a sign that I am about to get sick) and doubled my vitamin C and E. Magic- no sickness.
I have already missed too much time due to my back. I cannot miss anymore time.

Vitamin C and Zinc work for me.

**MuscleScience** · 01-26-2018, 04:11 PM

I’m not having a good week weight wise. I ended last week at 201.3. This week I have trended up to 205 on the dot this morning. I’ve got to reevaluate my training, diet and cardio regime to see where it’s gone wrong.

**David LoPan** · 01-26-2018, 04:13 PM

None of that shit worked for me.

metabolism slowing down a bit? do you do any re-feed days with super high calories ?

Whenever you are in this kind of situation, theres the contemplative and rational way of evaluating things, but don't forget that whatever you have accomplished was done by upping the ante. Testicular fortitude. If you bust your balls like you haven't before, you will reach what you haven't before.

Bro, you have bodybuilding competition experience (others too in here actually). The expectations from you are higher.

Be smart and do less volume if you're going HIT as discussed in here before. Working with tired stabilizing muscles is what always made me pull muscles here and there. After the initial sets you are less tight in your posture and you move less rigidly. Cut back on the volume is my opinion and keep tight in everything you do, from all your years of training your CNS can work much better such that you can control your moves precisely in any exercise, keep that in mind and think of movement execution even when training on machines. And you can use that to attempt more reps even when you seemingly did that last one that barely got to full ROM, and then again, and again, rest pause/drop sets et.c...

Agreed.

Seems like your going into save mode, time to change things up and trick it into thinking your giving in with a high carb day. I think hardcore carb cycling would work well, just do a clean high carb day every 5-7 days of Keto.
