then i watched that clip and forgot all about it going to work is so weird now im working out. your body is like elevated constantly so you dont feel tired in the same way. usually i would be dropping dead from fatigue and from the heat but theres like a grip around me holding me up, hard to explain, almost like i have more energy its a bit like "i was straining my ass off earlier today so im not gonna let this shitty job and conditions bring me down" | ||

It literally makes you a better person :D | ||

I could use some advice on a problem I have with squatting though. I started out with the SS program but when I got to 50+ kg with the squat I started getting a really sharp pain in my left elbow, bad enough that I didn't think it'd be good to just keep going. I tried both low bar and high bar but the same problem keeps popping up when going higher in weight. I'm doing a some front squatting right now which is going fine but I'd like to start working on my back squat again. Any idea's how I can fix this problem? | ||

Eating right, lifting big, and living healthy (mostly) has contributed so much to making my life better :D ROFL. Keep being awesome and ruining conventional logic with superior awesomeness! It always does. I was getting worried for a short while that you had bailed on us for partying. | ||

My nerdy friends were like "why would anyone lift..." My athletic friends were joking about how I was the last person they would have thought would lift  | ||

Any idea's how I can fix this problem? idk but nearing 65kg squat im suddenly rapidly increasingly aware of how important stretching beforehand is becoming. i have a growing feeling that flexibility is super important to form, i absolutely must spend time youtubing it before next session (4 days ago i tried my expert stretching and ended up falling on my ass and bashing the shit out of my toe on the side of the rack, it went black from bruising lol, expert stuff) | ||

No, I just thought it was more funny than anything ^^ They didn't mean it as an insult. but they were giving me shit in a joking manner >.> After I finish my schoolwork I will start routine pt 2 at neighbor's house. (they have the equipment, and they said I can use it for the next coulpe weeks )I ought to take a picture of myself tbh. From what I've read I'll gain a lot of weight rapidly. | ||

Remember to eat three times the amount you eat before, or you won't gain weight. | ||

Looking at the pictures/vids you've posted already, yes. Eat double to triple what you were eating previously; don't worry, your body will work through most of it, and that which is turned to fat you can burn off easily later. As far as the more energy thing - Make sure you've got a good recovery routine to back up the lifting. When I'm sleeping and eating right, HELL YEAH I have more energy and feel more awesome because of lifting. When I'm not sleeping well though, I find myself almost crawling by the end of my off days, let alone my lifting days. | ||

Then you're doing it right... for now. Over time, your body will also adapt to be able to take in more calories without that "too full, sick" feeling. Just make sure to keep up with it =p. | ||

Right now I guess I could say I've succeeded in eating a ton. And although we rarely have meat, my mom made a huge roast for dinner today. omnomnom. @Cambium Nice one! | ||

If I eat more of quality food, I feel sick and lethargic. I've basically been eating 1500 calories less than planned for two weeks straight. And its left me at six pack status with a minor headache. It's harder for me to add 10kg to my squat than it is to lose 10kg bodyweight. I also do not do well at all training fasted. I do best if I eat a full meal ~ 1:30 before my workout, so leangains isn't for me. Leangains has a few different options you can take, one of those being eating around noon/one, working out about an hour or hour and a half later, and then continuing to eat. It's still an 8 hour time frame though... Anyways, AM weight was at 182.6... gained a pound over easter break. Timed refeed Leg Press :4 plates per side + 20 lbs. Bench: 160 x 5 160 x 3 135 x 10 --- No spotter :\ or I prob woulda at least got 5/5/4 on the bench. Hitting it up again friday Chin ups. BW +15 lbs x 5 x 3 I can somewhat tell this cut is starting to get to me. I've been feeling lethargic at the gym. Can't wait to get to 180, see where I am, and then possibly go down to 175. | ||

I'm actually running on a schedule much like that almost purely by accident - except I eat my last meal usually around midnight, so it's an 11 hour feed 13 hour fast. Three meals in the 11 hours, with a few handfuls of almonds for snacks. It blows my mind that Decaf just posted that video of him throwing almost twice my bodyweight over his head. Can't. Even. | ||

Otherwise, I'll probably stay on it when I bulk again, but maybe a 12/12 or 10/14... Eh, who knows | ||
