    Yeah I keep my fat below 50g, If you buy a small one, (10")most of them only have 20g fat, then if you keep it low fat for the rest of your meals, you should be good.

    It's a kind of slang in the fittness community for nutrients.

    Just got finished doing my Monday depletion workout, I took 405's advice and broke up the routine and drop deadlifts from the workout, (I kept squats)
    I worked out at home could'nt be arsed to go to the gym, takes me half an hour to get there then half an hour on the way home, thats an hour of my life wasted! When my contract runs out im gonna sack the gym off, I've got everything I need at home, my bedroom is starting to look like a gym, I've got a bench with 100kg weight, dumbbells the go to 30kg, I got a chin up bar, an exercise bike, cardio games for the Xbox kinect, all need now is a squat rack, then im sorted

    DEPLETION WORKOUT
    (supersets)

    Squats x3 - leg curl x3

    Flat benchpress x3 - rows x3

    Side laterals x3 - calf rises x3

    Bicep curl x2 - skullcrushers x2

    Repeated this workout twice

    Then did 3 sets of press ups

    6x sets abs

    20 mins mod cardio (aerobics Xbox kinect)

    Picked up a little injury in my lower back when doing squats, hoping it does'nt turn into anything serious.

    My worse fear has happened, I woke up this morning to lower back pains where injured myself doing last nights workout. I still plan on working out tonight, but may have to drop squats, maybe have to replace them with squat jump repeats (with no weight) will have to see how I feel, if im not healed, I am definitely not going to be able to do deadlifts on powerlifting day. Just have to hope it magically heals quickly.

    ^^ hope u feel better! (hard-headed) i told u drop squats.

    depletion is a draining workout as is, squats are better left for when ur fresh. i think even Lyle recommends not doing squats.

    Cheers bud, yeah you did warn me, but when your working out at home you don't have much other option. Im gonna do squat jump repeats while holding dumbbells tonight, to take the stress off my back, we will see how I get on.

    if ur insistent on doing them i suggest doing one leg squats. get a chair or something of that height (bench) and stand in front of it. put one foot back on it so ur standing on one leg and lower urself down this way. u will use less weight. they are a bitch by the way!

    you tube them if u need to..

    Is your protein low, or is that your allotment for the day?

    About 1200 or so? UD2, right?

    If so, great job

    Yeah my allotment is 1200cal I try to keep my protein between 1g - 1.5g per lb of LBM. I have 160lb of LBM, so I am giving my body around what it needs.

    Thanks
