Hey everyone, LOG Update

Yesterday, I went ahead and did legs, Didn’t really feel like being there yesterday , I had to work Overtime at work, I wanted to get some cardio in, but I also wanted to hit my legs, and since legs are more fun for me then cardio, I figured it would be better to hit my legs.

Havnt had a nice Rep day in a while with legs, so instead of doing triples, I went ahead and did 5’s + 7’s.

I only sqauted, and did 1 set of abs, I really half assed it yesterday. During my lifts I mean the intensity was nice and tough, but I just didn’t feel like lunging, extensions, etc.

Legs
Squats: 235x3 235x5 235x7 242x5 253x5 145x20

Abs
Decline Bench: With Purple Band 20 reps / 20 reps with 3 negatives/ 15 reps with 5 negatives/ 20 reps with 5 negatives

It was 8:30 at night, so I just didn’t feel like being there. Today I start the 5x5, but im leaving legs out, because I did them yesterday, Or should I just do them, and since it’s the first week, it will be light anyway.

I cant wait to get on the 5x5 plan.

Do you think, since I wont be eating a SURPLUS, but I will be, eating maintenance, or around maintenece, I will be able to gain strength. Strenght is my concern. I want to me nice and strong. I can make my muscles grow, with a calorie surplus, but can I gain srenght (slowly)?

Thanks all!

You will find out

I actually hit a deadlift PR a few weeks into my cutting diet back in December (I think it was)....everyone's different. Yes, it's possible.... will you do it, no one can say.

 

[mm107]

IM DEF starting the 5x5 today. SGT, i hope my preplanned timed meals will help put on some strenght.

Thanks Sgt!

If you can do it, atleast i know its possible, im going to TRY to achieve that goal.

I actually gained strength while I was cutting as well. Not a lot but some strength.
