So far so good thanks! I just did one day so it's hard to tell. It's more of a tester week where I play around with numbers on the different exercises so it's not too hardcore yet!2 -
There is a solid chance that I am going to revert back to a flexible dieting lifestyle for the time going. With my birthday in a week (which i will be at the beach) and trying to recover from my back issues and having to refinish my whole master bath (thank you mold), i just don't feel i can put in the full effort for Keto. And most importantly i am craving more fruit!!2

That sounds like a good plan! Have a great Birthday

We had cheesecake for dessert last night so I was surprised when I weighed in at 171.2 this morning; first time that low since March 2018. I wanted to do a skulpt scan but got up a little too late; it would've either crept into my workout or had me getting to the office late and I have my annual performance review tomorrow so I opted to skip it.
For the fellow data nerds on the thread, one more week and I'll have three full years of daily weight, logging, and TDEE numbers.2 -

Think I’m becoming a data nerd
9 more days and I’ll have 4 years of logging and a very ball park of my TDEE.
All training sessions logged

Oh I forgot to share a progress photo from my recomp. About 5.5 months between photos. Not the greatest photos, also results aren't as apparent as eating in a deficit but I lost about 1" off my waist, it's tighter and more defined, also my loose skin from pregnancy is tightening up. And my glutes are rounder and hellloooo quads . If anyone wants more quads definitely incorporate Zercher/front squats, yikes!

With more focus on incline movements

Well then lol. You would think that would be sufficient volume.1 -

This new workout program is very different. I am not used to doing so much accessory work it almost feels like I am doing nothing. But my glute medius is killing me. I know DOMS doesn't mean much but it's nice to feel certain muscles working (not quads taking over haha). I kind of miss my squats and regular deadlifts but it's good to try new things and switch it up now and again.
Also I still don't now if I am in a deficit because my weight is a disaster. I dropped about 3lbs after my lifting break. I am glad I took a week off otherwise my weight would have dropped from the new program and less volume and I would have freaked out. Hopefully it climbs back up to normal soon so I know if I am actually losing or not.
