I admire ur dedication more thank most pros out there brother keep rockin
thanks man those of us normies with regular genetics have to work harder and more consistent to stay slightly above average. my bp issue helped keep me on track this year for sure, that is with no meds whatsoever. i have had perfect numbs ever since i went to one cheat only per week and cardio at least 3x a wk.

done for the day. got this one done super quick in just over an hour. as usual the pump was stupid and hurt pretty good haha. i hate it. i did manage to smash the piss out of my index finger yesterday so bad that i almost made a trip to the doc about 4 hours after i did it. so all my movements were done with my index finger pointing forward and not bent. it does bend and it isnt quite as bad today but it is pretty freaking sore and my nail is most likely going to be coming off. the loevly hazards of life. feeling pretty good and slept decient last night, at least my normal sleeping pattern. back training will be interesting with this finger tomorrow, esp with the sled rows on deck.

done for the day. great fast paced workout today. got a really good pump, hip felt really good and no lower back issues at all. got this all knocked out in about an hour and a half. now i only took 1min recovery on the sled rows and i ended up taking 2-3min recovery on the pushes. i was trying to keep from pumping my legs up to much today. i just wanted a little extra work and cardio but not over do it. happy with this weeks work and progress for sure

done for the day. a/c broke down in the gym, so this was a hot and very very brutal workout. i am already a hot person and train in a hoodie so that made it extra extra fun. so much so that even though my cardio is freaking great i was sucking wind the entire time because of how heavy the air was. any way, got a great session in today moved pretty fast and got a really solid pump even on somewhat of an empty tank. the slow neg and slow pos squats are a freaking biatch for sure esp after killing the legs on presses before hand. the prowler work is what it is, it doesnt get easier haha and sucks balls.

OK!
Who are you on this page? Mr. "Ab Man." Your diet looks pretty scrumptious compared to past years and you are probably in the best shape of your life. Thanks for the info on BP; that will help Rake out since we have to start all over with a new Doc thanks to Obamacare. I always learn so much from this thread, love you!
let me tell you about fucking obamacare and how bad it has been screwing me. i also had to get a new doc and have been waiting for multiple referals for over 2 months now. since my freaking hand is finally dying off, i cant get into neuro because i cant get approval in 24 hours like i could before it took effect. i am able to get into the va faster and more effectively than i can with my retired insurance which is ass backwards. god forbid i had a heart or lung condition because i would die waiting to see a freaking specialist. it is unfreaking real how shitty coverage that i pay for is

HEY!!
Tell me about the Ab work... How small is your waist?
it is down to 34 and a little smaller on an empty stomach. now, i am only doing the additional ab work to protect the lower back and hips haha. the additional nasty abs and smaller waist is kind of an added benefit. i may be upping the frequency and intensity as well to tighten it down even more. we will see

done for the day. i am wiped out today. i got it all done and in in 2 hours so i was freaking trucking along. the rack pulls absolutely destroyed my entire back and hands. doing the sled pulls was extra brutal today and i had to keep stopping to regrip because of my hands. all in all a great session for sure though even though it was a serious kick in the nuts.

done for the day. great session today with a sick pump. yesterday broke my ass off more so than i though. i am actually pretty sore and i fought the sandman all freaking day long so i wouldnt be up the entire night pacing. i do have a smidge of knee pain but that's a part of getting leaner, pretty much everything aches a bit with all the extra work. legs did go really well though with no pain at all. i am happy with how fast i am progressing along right now

done for the day. went pretty heavy on squats being depleted out but it actually didnt feel to bad. i did lose speed at 315 but i was able to keep the reps at 8. so that's a good sign that i am not losing strength at all. the rest of the session was on point. i did crank up the intensity on the sled work a bit. i dragged it down the 40 rested for about 10-15 sec then pushed it back. 1 minute rest then again back and forth. it filled up my even more filled up legs big time. great day and i am spent.
