    Big jump on all sets, even the missed rep on 4th set of 80, 80x3, was due to me putting on the belt for that set and it fucccking my form up.

    How's the cut going?


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,561 ✭✭✭JJayoo


    Morning weight has been 14 s 3lb for the last month, but this stall has been intentional as I wanted to go into maintenance mode for a bit. Gonna hop back on the cut train from Monday.

    The belt has made a huge difference, makes me sooooo much more aware of my body position.

    Had to do a huge warm-up as I felt like sh1t, hams and back incrediblly tight from yesterdays expedition up the mountain.

    Nice!

    How's the belt feeling?


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,561 ✭✭✭JJayoo


    I'm liking the belt, still trying to find the perfect placement for it. Keeping my head up is another thing I'm trying to enforce, I used to always look down and visually judge my dept.

    Squats
    Worked up to
    150x 3 x 5 sets
    110x10

    Happy with the squats as 150 x3 was a pb, will head back to my 5x 5 next session.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,561 ✭✭✭JJayoo


    No rolling and a foooking cold shedgym

    Squats
    Worked up to
    140 x 8 PB
    150 x 4 PB
    160 x 1

    Squats are very slowly moving in the right direction, I feel my hamstrings are finally on board and peace has defended on squatville.

    The fact that my squats are going up during the cut while all other lifts have dropped just shows how undertrained they were

    It doesn't auto-embed too well on the phone
    Also, I think you re being a bit stingey with your BF estimate. Less than 14% imo, maybe under 12%

    Mobility/warmup drills

    BB OHP
    First proper go at BB OHP in months so lots of warmup stuff

    Warm up sets

    Working sets
    80 x 1
    85 x 1 current bodyweight
    90 x 1
    80 x 3
    70 x 5
    60 x 10

    Superset
    BB OHP 60kg x 5/ side raises/ band front raise
    3 sets

    Dips
    Bw x 22
    10kg x 10
    15kg x 10

    More shoulder mobility stuff

    Was stretched for time so a bit all over the place. Have seen a definite crossover between dip strength and OHP. From this session I think a BW x 5 is Def possible for BB OHP.

    Nice mini ghettoblaster on the locker!

    Would agree with Mellor that 14% would seem to be high.

    I'd call that a good cut so far! Jesus though...17 stone!


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,561 ✭✭✭JJayoo


    Ya I spent about 15 months trying to eat as much as humanly possible, the dirtiest bulk imaginable, I had pictures but deleted them all by accident :(

    And that video is taken in the most ridiculously complementary lighting imaginable, energy saving light bulbs = gainzzzzzzzzzz

    Yeah but lighting doesn't make those veins around your delts pop.

    Next year you should do Operation Transformation for the craic. Bulk for 6 months, apply, cut, win.

    Found a bulk picture saved on Google

    17 stone morning weight and tensing my stomach in picture.
