    NEW GAME PLAN.

    powerlifting meet in February- so- cut weight- then be strong AF in February- I think that's the plan.

    I officially gave up on Lee Labrada's plan around 9 weeks in- they started charging for it I think and I was annoyed- so I gave up- I'm doing essentially a bastardized 5 x 5 with a focus on mobility and form- so slow progress upwards in terms of weight. I'm not mad at it- but it IS frustrating.

    This is your first meet, right!?! YASSSSS


    I heard Layne Norton saying something about bbcom starting to charge for his program as well. Sounds ridiculous!

    From my understanding that there are additional programs on biolayne.com but he did just dole out PHAT for free through PDF because BB.com started charging for their programs like PH3.

    On a personal note, I am just working on recomp at this point. With my daughter coming into this world, it's been a bit challenging to stick with calories through the holidays. Also, i started PHAT which is by far one of my favorite programs to date. Definitely seeing an increase in strength and potentially a bit more size (at least in my arms).

    Thanks! I have a feeling I’m going to amass quite a large collection of fun deadlifting socks :p

    It’s funny how all of a sudden I went from not feeling lean enough to feeling really scrawny. My workout shorts are all too big right now. It will be nice to have them fit again.

    I hope people don't pay them.
    There is a great (free) Excel template out there already for PH3 (which I would prefer over using the bbcom app anyway, so you can see all the data upfront)

    It would be one thing if these were 'new' programs, but to take programs that have been free for YEARS and decide to make them $8.99 per month now.....just no.

    Do you have a link to the PH3 template? If so, I can update the lifting programs thread.

    this will be my first official meet yes. I wanted to do the one on the 10th- but well- I had show.

    So - this would be good. I'm excited. I need a new real program. I'm sort of doing 5 x 5 because- I can. and it's there. I don't have time for Sheiko right now. Maybe after January? Hard to come out of certifications and right into a meet- but whatever- it's not about being strong. It's about doing the things.

    How' everyone else doing? any big plans for the year coming up?

    I'm motoring through with an inconsistent 2-3 time a week program right now- it's really killing me to not lift regularly but the work gets done so I know it's not awful.

    I think I previously mentioned- but the power meet- which means I need to set up a training cycle soon. *kitten* timing b/c I'll be in Atlanta for a dance certification for a week smack in the middle of that- but I mean- there are worse things I think. But my construction project is over in a week so soon- I should be able to go back to "normal" soon. thankfully!

    Crazy sick last week. Lost 5 pounds in 3 days. They found their way back, though, once I got rehydrated. :sad:

    Supposed to do a charity meet Saturday and I haven't been in the gym for a week. I already paid the entry fee, so I'm going to do it, but my lifts are gonna suck.

    Then Belize in March!!!

    Oh yea, lol..

    So I start dabbling in programming a new workout for my lifting partner and I. While we both loved PHAT, it was a bit more time consuming than we both liked (leg days were 75 to 90 minutes) .
