Exactly!

Yeah mine are around 30-40kg less, 170 DL, 130-140 sldl, I only do normal deads though, enjoy them more. The business next door doesn't though.

Try reverse pyramid training, great when cutting.

I usually scope it out, see how confident they are looking. Then open with 'are you open to suggestions?'

should of let me know, could of sorted some. Got mine with no hassles, 4 days delivery! Whens yours due? I'm hoping to have mine done for SAU nats. Thinking stock piping also.

Same. Haven't heard from him since he started this build.

should of gave them some advice! Some just don't have any idea. Then again, a lot think they know all.

Yeah it's a joke what a lot of people are led to believe! The only way to lose fat is cal in vs cal out. Correct nutrition will aid in maintaining strength and muscle mass whilst in a deficit though

These ~ symbols are approximates. You never asked what I ate, you just assumed it would be unhealthy.

If only they would do that at my gym! I've even just recently got told to not bang the weights as loud, whilst doing deads. whole grains and unprocessed foods are better for you apparently. But If youre hitting your macro targets, getting the results you want, doesn't matter.

I'm cutting, had KFC on Sunday. Cream filled donut yesterday.

~120g P, ~240g C, ~50g F You do the math.

Engine arrived =D

You need to get that sorted, took me a week or two of training, but now a 2000cal meal is normal and easy!

That's a good indication

Bingo!! Exactly what I've been looking for!

I eat majority of my carbs after 7. After training. I gain lean muscle and it's not because of 'genetics' Chew your macros.

Definitely a good idea. Health is the most important thing.

I thought its recommended not to consume excessive amounts of alcohol whilst on anti depressants?

Find yourself a good physio. Took me years to recover from a severe tear (gave up for years). Every person to touch them say they are the tighest they have worked on. Anybody can touch my ITB's and feel how lumpy they are. Taking up weights/heavy lifting I have doubled my strength but still get issues, I go at least once a month to physio/massage to stay on top of things. Best stretches Ive been given were the ones that don't feel like they are pulling on the muscle group directly like; lying on back, one knee pulled into chest, toes pulled towards, whilst other leg is in air, toes pointed. When doing this I can feel it in my hips, ITB's, down side of my knees. I usually hold it for 10s. Swap over. You're stretching different muscles of the two legs at same time. It should resemble riding a bike. Extended leg pointed, retracted pulled. Then I switch to both legs pointing at around 45degrees,toes pointed, then pulling knees into chest, toes pulled towards you. They actually resemble some 'core' exercises, but they work for me and until I was shown them, stretching never seemed to work. Theory being, if you can feel the muscle pulling, that's exactly what it is doing, pulling against you, not relaxing and stretching out.

It's because they have real muscle, not swollen muscles/fat overlay that a lot of people have. Don't look at the weight anyway. Look at power to weight ratio.

It's wasn't the time that they were referring to really. It was the fact that standard afm in Australia will only allow the sort of power level stated. So comparing them to the US power level gives a greater idea with what you are dealing with. You asked a question, they are trying to gauge what your circumstances are. Let's just say our dynos read lower, then the power level you have is very acceptable and you should be happy with the figure.

basically you warm up to 60-80% of your top set, Have a 3-5min rest, whatever suits, Then punch out your top set using all your energy, recover. Reduce weight 10-15%, do two more reps than last set. Rest Reduce weight 10-15%, do two more reps than last set. allows you to get your max out whilst in a deficit. I've done this, overlaying 5/3/1. Works a treat for me.

Gains can definitely be had whilst cutting, but as you said, a lot slower to get physical gains. strength going up, body weight going down, you're doing ok.

So he definitely can be dissatisfied with the power from them.
