I forgot to say I am trying to gain weight right now, not lose it, but I imagine it would work either way I would just have to adjust total calories.

almost 3 weeks in

things are going fairly well. im getting a little impatient though

im not sure what my weight is but i know that i weighed about 240 before i started. i will go lower than 220 (depleted)

i'll post updates sporadically

adding 5 lbs a week on rack pulls, squats, and incline bench

biceps and abs getting biggermy computer died so i'm posting from school. i'm not supposed to be on here. so it'll be at least a few weeks before i can post regularly

yesterday i PRed on 4 boards. did 315 for 5 reps, was pretty easy. i'm not losing strength at all

carb-up today

huge PR on squats today.

i worked up to 345x3 w/ a belt only. thats a 30 lb PR

next week i'm switching back to my old routine

So are you going to *gain muscle* working like that or not.

 

[jeremys]

working like what? low reps?

i posted my main exercises lately due to time restrictions

like today after squats i did quads, hams, calves, and abs. 2 sets each

gaining muscle while on a calorie deficit! great job man.

 

[jeremys]

im gaining some fluff muscle (abs, biceps, etc) because i havent trained them for a while

but i've always believed strength gains in the major lifts are mostly due to CNS adaption, not neccessarily muscle gain

ok i think im pretty much done. i get my wisdom teeth taken out on thursday so i wont be able to eat solids for a couple days. plus i'm ready to start benching heavy again

i'm at about 230 or a little under. if i up the protein and eat mostly clean, i can be a solid 242

i'm a lot more comfortable now
