Workout again.

The muscle soreness stops happening if you workout consistently for a couple of weeks. But when I do feel it, I actually really enjoy it so it's win/win.


I know right! :D

I love that shit.

Hi eshlow. I bought your book on bodyweight training and in it you recommend training the L-sit on the floor. Thing is, I'm not able to push my body off the floor without equipment but I can do it if I'm using push-up stands. Should I continue trying on the floor or should I train it on the stands until I'm strong enough to do it on the floor?

You probably have nicer stuff beneath your fat but I'm game. Never done a shred before so any tips are welcome. All I know is stay away from carbs (and salt a week before the finish).

I would also like some input. Not determined at all yet but I might have little option to gain much more the next couple of months because of work/travel. I have little idea how a cut even works, would love to get a breakdown.

My opinion is that unless you are carrying around a lot of fat you shouldn't cut unless you have a lot of lean body mass. You are probably going to lose a lot of mass and strength and you probably won't look nearly as good as you think, so that by the end all you will have accomplished is setting yourself back a number of months.

It turns out a good Thai massage before the next workout helps a lot too :p

I just take out 300grams of carbs from my diet and I drop fat pretty fast. That means I still have carbs left though (currently bulking on 4900). I add in some cardio. Rest of diet as well as training remains the same, although I might not go as HAM on training (no more triple dropsets on squats).

I fear you may be right, but I'm only planning on going for a month and trying stuff for yourself is the only way to know the truth =)

I could definitely use these on a daily basis. Especially after rugby. I swear i spent half the game tackling this 300 pound samoan giant on saturday.

I wouldn't put your back and "normal" in the same paragraph, let alone the same sentence.

That said, yeah it could be.

Haha, you're righ t. It's all muscular though, not skeletal which is where my issues have been as of late.

Things improved today, I was really knotted up and it was effectively destroyed.

There's nothing subtle about the giant lump on my head i took from someones elbow. Or the 40 point loss. Hence all the defense I was playing

Got the clean grip snatch up to 105 a couple times again today but couldn't get 108 to save my life. Don't get why it's so hard!
Cleans up to 152..highest since my wrist injury.
Quick back squat up to 200, felt so heavy even though i did 225 twice last week

I'm sort of torn between routines that I want to do: Daily squatting heavy (i.e. Nemesis) and the 3x/week reverse pyramid approach (Leangains). I've been doing Nemesis for a while, but I've noticed that I'm not really satisfied with my upper body aesthetics anymore, so I'm looking to add some heavy benching and chins. I don't want to give up daily squatting because it seems like if I don't squat for a few days, I feel destroyed for a few days after squatting, and that's a cycle I don't like. I'm mostly after aesthetics, but being super strong is awesome, too, and those things go hand in hand. I want to be leaner than I am now, hopefully while gaining strength. With those things in mind, here is what I've come up with:

Day 1: Squat to 1RM (Volcano style: find 3RM, find 2RM, find 1RM) add intensifier (back off sets)
Day 2: Squat to 1RM (Volcano style: find 3RM, find 2RM, find 1RM) add intensifier (back off sets), bench press reverse pyramid
Day 3: Squat to 1RM (Volcano style: find 3RM, find 2RM, find 1RM) add intensifier (back off sets)
Day 4: Squat to 1RM (Volcano style: find 3RM, find 2RM, find 1RM) add intensifier (back off sets), weighted chin ups reverse pyramid
Day 5: Squat to 1RM (Volcano style: find 3RM, find 2RM, find 1RM) add intensifier (back off sets)
Day 6: Squat to 1RM (Volcano style: find 3RM, find 2RM, find 1RM) add intensifier (back off sets), cleans/snatches/deadlifts reverse pyramid for deadlift or volcano style for olympics
Day 7: Squat to 1RM (Volcano style: find 3RM, find 2RM, find 1RM) add intensifier (back off sets)

As per this calculator: http://www.1percentedge.com/ifcalc/ I will be treating squat-only days as rest days.
On squat-only days I'll be looking to eat a ~20% calorie deficit, ~25/75 carbs/fat split with 1g/lb bodyweight in protein. On double-duty days, I will be eating a ~20% calorie surplus, ~75/25 carbs/fat split, same protein as before. All this will be done with intermittent fasting. My net calories for the week will be a slight deficit, so I should be losing fat. The higher intake on heavier days, especially with a carb-cycle focused on replenishing glycocen, will hopefully allow me to continue gaining strength, or at least maintaining.

My concerns are that I might be a little pooched after low-calorie days because I will still be squatting heavy, and I'm not sure what lift to do on day 6. I really don't do enough olympic lifting, but I feel like I can't fit daily olympic lifting into my schedule. I don't want to give it up entirely, though. Deadlifts would be good for posterior training, but I heard it messes with olympic lift programming (is that an issue for someone doing olympic lifting as infrequently as me?). Cleans and power cleans, I imagine, work a lot of the same muscles as deadlifts. I like snatches for the shoulder health and flexibility, plus they are just plain fun, and I feel like they're decently hard on the posterior chain.

What are your guys' thoughts on this?
