Amazing workout. Killed it. I was supposed to be 185 on the incline but I miscalculated. Realized on my backdown sets. Pretty happy with that.

The 4+2 is my spotter helping me on the 2 last reps. Don't know how much, but maybe I should add 405 and between the two of us I'll get some resistance!

DB Side Delts is bothering my right shoulder still. Also my right delt is smaller, might have something to do with it. I feel like this should be done almost as rehab, light for reps just focusing on the muscle and the technique. My right shoulder get super sore doing it with 20-25+.

My Lats are even out though! I don't know how that happened but it's symmetrical now.

Coach revised my diet by cutting 1 serving of fat a day for 6 days. That's 15g*9calories=135 calories a day. Not much, I probably cheat more than that in a day but I'm not that bad. I seem to be stuck a 180lbs although my goal is 175. Totally maintaining 180. I might add some walks during my deload week on top of cutting my carb intake by half. Taking a progress pic on Saturday to show progress. Although the scale don't bulge, I feel like I'm still improving.

Legs are still sore from Tuesday. Loved that workout, but I'm not looking forward to tomorrow!

Motivation of the day:

Big PR. This is a short 3 weeks cycle, I'm deloading next week. I wanted to kill it before then. Last PR was 15 x 240#. I really need to think speed on my squats, it helps a lot.

One hour of sleep last night. Nothing Terror can't fix:

Here's a progress pic after 8 weeks in. Biggest change from the last one is decreased bodyfat with increased vascularity.

However do you keep up with your joints kind sir; is there a cocktail of vitamins I'm missing?

You mean russian juice? Nah, 100% natty. I've been an athlete my whole life since I'm 6 years old. I also think I have the genetics for it.

My secret right now though is a customized diet and training plan from the top guys in the industry. Obviously they know what they are doing.

Spoke with my coach, no more deload until the contest. I'm so excited, going 6 weeks hard, lots of volume. Unfortunately, he also said NO MORE HEAVY DLs. Super excited to just relax for one week then push hard to victory. Might start taking creatine as well for the extra buff.

Actually when people cut that lean they usually need something special for their joints, even the naturals. Just was looking for any good suggestions you might have. I just take fish oil, calcium, magnesium, and glucosamine/msm. Seems to help anyway. Good luck.

I never heard of it, except my coach mentioning more frequent deloads during the cut to prevent injuries. I'm not big into supplements, I only take whey protein and now creatine for the next 7 weeks. Thanks!

Starting the peaking cycle. Lots of volume for the next 6 weeks, no deload.

Went for a jog cause I felt so bad for binging this week-end. Can't expect to get right back into the same distance/tempo I used to run. Makes me miss fighting, I used to run the trails and stairs in this ravine all the time.

I see this gym buddy pull up a Animal Pump container in the locker room. "I'm like wtf did you get that? They don't ship to Canada." Apparently they sell it right by the gym in this little store called Xtreme Line Supplements. Always wanted to try the Animal supplements, they're definitely one of my favorite brand when it comes to gym stuff. I mean, look at this motherfucker:

Bodyweight this morning 177.6! I've been dieting like a monk all week. No cheating of any kind. Just sticking to the plan. It works really well so far. Progress pics tomorrow. Might end up going even lower than 175 if it's this easy, we'll see by the end of next week.

Going to pick my board shorts tomorrow, hope I find something.

Got my new shorts!! Can't believe I'm wearing 30, never wore 30 in my life. I love them though. My quads still pops up through them so it's a plus.

Took some pics after the gym, couldn't pick one so here's a few:

EDIT: Feedback from the coach on the pics below: Show ready and the back shot is money.
I feel like a million buck right now!
