    Thank u fellas. Work has been brutal havent got much training in only two sessions this week.
    Not hurting nearly as bad these days its really nice.
    Had to drop my 100mg dose of tren after about 3-4 weeks. Its definitely a super nice kick along side trt to give you that extra aggression and strength in the gym. Health is more important these days tho

    Plan on legs in the morning

    Took 3 days off from work and it has been nice. Gym has a new hack sqaut machine. For some reason this one is much harder to do than a regular one i see two massive guys struggling with 3 plates one could be an ifbb pro if he wanted his genetics are just freaky good. So yeah, im gonna try it out today, see how it is. I may band it bc of my knee pain fear

    Hit some dead lifts Saturday its been 6 months. I could tell too, went up to 455 for a set and that shit was no cake walk. It took some work. I didnt want to go 500 since it had been so long. Back felt good and worked. Doing some static holds as well. With all the overtime this year my nutrition is suffering but doing the best i can

    I had a good pump. A real good pump. Looked alot wider I thought than the pic depicts. I know I did. Just the camera took some width away always does with tall guys.
    Did some arms and delts. Got asked by a random black dude “what was I taken”…just another one of those that think its just gear and everyone looks like ifbb pro that does gear. Like im really gonna tell you what im takin in front of this gym full of people and incriminate myself. Sheesh.

    Well Kel, some guys swear you need the monstrous weight and others say you dont. From my experience generally with high intensity levels you need a heavier weight to crush that muscle break it down and make it completly trash to failure and beyond. Ive done both, good and bad to both. It seems to me, as time progresses the heavier weight takes more toll on me than moderate. Hard to say…

    Main thing, “pussy weights” as you call them, are in fact better than no weights. I do believe Ill say.

    I do tend to always pyramid up in weight until the final working set. Ive been trainin a while but still struggle to find the right “balance” meaning that picking the right weight ..not to heavy not to light. Still trying to achieve such mastery

    Never ending battle isn't it? I'm just having to reevaluate things due to constantly having to get knee injections so I'm trying to stay lighter and do higher reps, less rest, etc. Probably no higher than 315 for squats anymore and a shorter range of motion. Whatever works to keep me in the game, dammit!

    That's a good workout, Cuz! Sometimes you just have to free style it

    I HATE that crunchy sound. Sometimes I'm like Rice Crispies: snap, crackle and pop.

    Keep killing it!

    For sure it isnt a good feeling when you hear it. Im sure millions of reps over the last 20 years has nothing to do with it lol

    Impressive push regardless of the form! It's amazing what some guys are now capable of doing these days. Saw a guy on line a day or so ago push 585 up with his legs straight out on the bench like a plank not allowing any leg drive. Amazing.

    Being as I am pretty far from a spring chicken, maintenance phases can be a blessing!
