Good workout week. Admittedly, I ate a bit more than usual this week, in the form of bananas and greek yogurt so not a total loss!!

Upper body. was so gassed, i missed a set of bicep curls and abs. oh well. legs tomorrow.

Legs today. Upper body is not sore, so time to add sets.

What casein do you use?

upper body and got my 10 k steps in!! wondering if i am hitting enough volume so we shall see how sore i get tomorrow

Do anything that does not cause pain.

"four" servings ;)

rest day aka walking day. 15k steps today! and a very fast sydney cummings core workout.

bean sprouts, alfalfa sprouts, etc. everything is fancier with sprouts

Also, a food update: I usually eat as I please but today I went for the full allotment MFP gives me to maintain my weight at 5’3” 107lb, which is about 2150 and wow I feel chunky going to bed. I’ve been hitting around 2050ish the last couple days before but workouts this week went well. My only regret is that I had a dress…

Wow!! May I ask how???

So, I have never done the hack squat machine before today. I put my feed close together to focus quads, and I did not need to even add weight and could barely get 5 reps with full ROM!! Anyone else feel this with the hack squat machine??

I did legs today and WOW I am sore. Was feeling a slight soreness from last leg session, but perhaps just because I am coming off rest week. So, I have never done the hack squat machine before today. I put my feed close together to focus quads, and I did not need to even add weight and could barely get 5 reps with full…

I was SUFFERING on my upper body this morning after poor sleep and only did 9 sets. But I revived and finished my sets this afternoon. Leg day tomorrow after a long night's rest.

Legs yesterday went well and I am SORE today. Although soreness does not indicate a good workout, it feels good to be sore. Walking and perhaps a short bike ride today for recovery. Back to upper tomorrow. @sarahkkk I have to say i am finding bulking to be LOTS of food. Which makes me think cutting will be easy (am i…

I have had these and the peanut butter flavored ones are still the best imo

Upper body strength day. Day 1 of the new mesocycle!

I have yet to hit legs this meso (today is day 1) but I have a feeling I will NOT miss CDLs. Day 1 went well! Rolling into the meso with fewer sets and working in a hypertrophy range is went well today. Squats tomorrow!

Tragically, you cannot ask me, as every bulking attempt I have had is a failure in that I do not gain the weight. But I am really trying again starting tomorrow (or another day if I want to make my deload the full 7 days vs. 5....).

Looking good, like you could end your cut!

Motivation has just about returned! I am giving myself today as my last day off in lifting which will have been about 5ish days off from heavy lifts. I was extremely pleased with my last macrocycle, which was PHUL, so I will run that again, except this time throwing out conventional deadlifts. I am still weary of my back…

I truly do not have real process or performance goals at the moment. And honesty, I am ok with that since I have some work stress currently. Maintenance is a good idea, but I truly hope that 3-4 days away from the iron will just reinvigorate my interest.

I have been toying with the idea of RP but decided that maybe I should wait to get it for a cut. What's the real differences between that and MFP + sensible food choices? I feel like timing is probably similar if you choose a number of meals that fits your life with MFP. Just generally, is RP worth the price if I already…

A much needed deload week starting today. I am not training at all. Motivation is down, joints ache, nightly headaches happening, mood is low. I have no idea what I am doing with my body. Weight is stable around 106-108, which is higher than it was back in December. I’m feeling lost in my journey. Sigh*

30 mins of core work today. Doing legs 3days/week is too taking. back to 2

Meeeeeee. The caramel peanut are good

Yesterday: 3 sets of each Squats Front Squats Barbell Lunges Seated Calf raises 1 set of lying leg curls Today: Incline BB press 4 sets 3 sets each of: 1 arm DB row flat db fly seated row bb curl skullcrusher I am tired.

Upper body session today. My goal is to build muscle, and I am following the PHUL program, adding in a couple of extra sets as I was not feeling very sore previously. I am still concerned that I am not stimulating enough for muscle growth, so I will add in a leg day.

jw how much D3 are you taking?

These were pretty good, but I gave most of mine away. anyone have the fudge kind yet?
