Rise and shine.

Dropped my wife off at the airport this morning. She's going to Vegas with her friend until Wednesday.... Lucky shit lol. I burned up a lot of vacation time at the beginning of the year when my mom was in icu and I was taking care of my dad so I couldn't go along this time. She deserves some time away from all of us though so I'm very happy she gets to go.

So, I'll be single parenting it up this week.

Kicking off today with the breakfast of champions!

So I've had more people come up to me in the gym in the last week then I have the last two years. They're the regulars I always see in the gym I just don't talk and apparently I don't seem very approachable during training lol. And I'm not.

Anyways. One guy came up asking about the split squats. Cool guy. He could probably step on a classic stage tomorrow and clean house. Just naturally lean with great structure and a good amount of muscle.

Another guy came up today during my Squats. I could tell he is an older guy but he's fucking big, very big. I see him time to time. I'm sitting on a free bench trying to breath after my top set and he comes over and sits down beside me. Looks down and asks about my Chucks since they're black and yellow and he's a Pittsburgh fan. We bs a little and he says "I'm happy to see a beast in here working his ass off". That meant a lot. Older guy who trains hard and is big to say that? Yeah that's a compliment that isn't the same as if a 20 year old said it.

Those are all much higher reps than you have me doing.

 

[montego]

Those are all much higher reps than you have me doing.

I ran buckshot over the log book today. These should not have been over 25 reps since this would be equivalent to your pump work in the program.

They will be heavier next time I'm back to this group of exercises.

 

[montego]

Check ins and such this morning. Weight back to 255.5 from 258. Had a consistent week this week with work so we were able to get a more accurate weight.

Will have more check in pics Monday but no diet changes were made.

I did get vacuum work tossed my way though.

3 sets of 10 with a 15 second hold every day. One set morning, one afternoon, one night. My waist gets rather small from the side but, it's always been wide from the front and back so we're gonna see if we can improve that.

Case in point -

These are from the end of my cut in December lol. Definitely not my current condition, just making a comparison of my waist from the side to the front.

Fucking strong.

So after talking with the coach yesterday I'm pulling the added volume back out. Instead I'm gonna try to find another notch on the intensity scale..... Not sure how that's gonna happen but, I'll make it happen. He's very happy with the progress so far and after seeing comparison pics I am a well. His view was, it's not that I'm getting bigger as much as I'm getting denser and fuller. I would have to agree.

He wants front and rear double biceps shots along with side chest going forward. He thinks my arms are behind........ I think they aren't thick from the front but, aren't behind from the side. I told him I neglected them for a while since they overpowered my legs and got a good scolding lol.

I dunno... They could be better.
