Something to look forward to, I guess...Days like that happen. Power through it. You're running on a serious caloric deficit. It's going to be very hard for the next few days.
Keep it up brother, were gonna kick some grass out there!Something to look forward to, I guess...
Just have to remember how I feel after I kick ass in the gym, because I'm really happy with the progress I'm able to see, and that doesn't happen by accident.
1 more set for bench then pull downs. It's the 16th hole of the grandaddy, and I'm tired, but there's effing work to do and it gets done today!

I am on my way to the gym. are there any questions you want me to try to answer when I'm there?
Sore or painful? does it feel like muscle belly or joint?Can't think of any you have to answer at the gym, but I do have a question. After benching today, my deltoids are extremely sore today and I don't ever remember them being sore before. Is that normal or did I mess something up with my form? I used the grip you showed in your video and I pulled my shoulders under me, and it felt strong, but the soreness is new.

It's a good question to ask. If it feels like it is at the point where the deltoid meets the bicep, pic below, then don't worry. You're just engaging muscles you weren't before. That's a good thing.Just sore, and right in the middle of the muscle, nowhere near any joints. I can post a pic of where it's at if you want. It's just new, so I figured I'm either doing it right for the first time or doing it way wrong for the first time and thought I should ask.

Love it. Reality when it comes to pressing, your shoulders are involved the stabilizing your arms, supporting the bar going down, and helping to push it going up. If your shoulders weren't involved before, you were eliminating a very powerful muscle group in your presses. You're being more efficient now. Good work.That's exactly where it is. Like I said, today was as strong as I've felt doing bench, so I was hoping I was doing something right. Thanks Blu. Have a good workout.
Sit tight.Joe you benching tonight? I could use a little tip on setting my shoulders. I can do it but it doesn't seem consistent. Like some sets feel super solid and I can feel them tightened and what I think is in the right place. Every once and awhile tho I try to set them and it just feels kinda off, know what I mean? Is there a routine you do to get set the same every time? Sorry for the late question haha I just saw this
You rock dude, looking forward to checking it out. I'm benching tomorrow so I figured id ask in advance haha thanks!Sit tight.
Alright. I got something for you. I apologize in advance. The camera isn't always pointed at my face. And I was talking fast and misspoke at one point. I will elaborate once I can post the video.
5 more pounds? One glass of merlot a night. And for the rest of the days. Two days of weights and 4 days of HIIT. And sleep at least 8 hours.HIIT done for the day. I like working out in the AM to get it out of the way, but sweating my arse off all morning isn't fun.
285.8 this morning with 8 days until the weigh in. I'm eating 1200-1400 calories a day while working out 6 days a week. What do I need to be doing over this last week to get me to the finish line?
OK, here's the plan.5 more pounds? One glass of merlot a night. And for the rest of the days. Two days of weights and 4 days of HIIT. And sleep at least 8 hours.
This is just short term.
Excellent plan. Drink 50% of the water you are now. Another tip to help be a bit more aggressive, it's going to be a little gross. Have a probiotic every morning. Like an Activia yogurt. Don't even worry about counting it as calories. You're going sh-t like a goose.OK, here's the plan.
Friday: HIIT and swimming with kids
Saturday: 36 holes of golf
Sunday: HIIT
Monday: weights
Tuesday: HIIT
Wednesday: weights
Thursday: HIIT
Friday: weigh 280 and eat a big steak to celebrate.
You mentioned before about limiting water, should that start now as well? I drink a ton of water so that might actually be the hardest part.

One other thing, if you want to continue to weight train and exercise after this, we are going to reevaluate a lot of this. Right now, we are being very aggressive and it really isn't conducive to a long term lifestyle.
Keep doing what you're doing then. I like that.I already take probiotics every morning.
I very much want to continue the weight training after this, so I look forward to any changes you want to make to make it more sustainable long term.
I have a 20oz tumbler that I go through about 6 times in a day, and a 32oz bottle that I drain working out, then throughout the evening. I'd guess 180-200 ounces.Keep doing what you're doing then. I like that.
As we are talking about this, how much water are you drinking in a day? Rough estimate?
