Man I wish I could pull 200 for 4. I miss deadlifting so much. I finally hit 200 months ago but then recurring back issues and now shoulder surgery have put me right out.
I actually did deadlift the other day, kept it what I thought was light, 120kg focusing on eccentric, fuck me my back is still in bits from it.. no idea what happened! Getting old and battered I suppose lolSeems like a good workout! Good to hear pins and needles settling down a little too.

Can’t wait for the gym fail videos with the duct tape etc lmao

I’m 2 months post shoulder surgery so similar situation, only just starting to train upper again now. 3-6 months will not atrophy THAT much. You’ll still be moving and be doing rehab.
Keep up with nutrition and definitely keep training legs, this will continue to stimulate natural growth hormone and remain anabolic and will help to maintain strength throughout. You can still train the other side too remember π
Jordan has a video on training with injuries I believe, think he speaks about when he tore his pec? Still loaded one side heavy as usual but kept the other light and did rehab work etc.

You either bulk or you get lean. But check out JP’s video on minimising fat gain while bulking

Infinity War is definitely one I’m excited for! Looks incredible.
Oooh and Deadpool 2. That makes me moist.

I am in the UK. However the only thing that should be cola flavoured is cola… or cola bottles. The end. Weirdo lol

Let me know what you think of med kit.

Jordan, there’s more than enough of you to split yourself in to two average sized humans to double your workload. Come on, pull your finger out lad.

Lmao that bad eh? Some mixed reviews, a number mention foaming, most say it does ok but mixes like shit. I reckon they’ve got a weak wrist action though π Don’t want to be stuck with 2.5kg of shit product though! Lol Now I’m torn.
Good study there, thanks for the link. -
Calories burned during any exercise would count towards your net energy expenditure and for fat loss this is key. To lose bodyfat / weight, you need to be in a deficit, if it has tapered off, you’re likely no longer in a deficit. If you feel your calories are already as low as you can go then energy expenditure needs to increase, ie: Cardio. With your current deficit it will be difficult to push in the weights, I would keep it lighter with higher volume to protect yourself.
You’re in quite a deficit already by the sounds of it. I’m 207 lbs, down from 220lbs and currently maintaining at around 2700 cals. Likely around 19% BF though but that is an educated guess based on a previous measurement and weight.
10lbs in 4 weeks is a fair bit and likely will have tapered off a little but if you’re still dropping, even slower 1-2lbs per week, then keep as you are until it stalls.

Apologies for bumping an old thread, didn’t want to start a new one with this having already been discussed.
Looking at Beef Isolate for a change, nothing to do with lactose etc, but just seen some on a great deal and cheaper than Whey Isolate so figured might give it a shot!
Any further comments or reviews on the use of Beef Isolate?Does it have full amino profile too?

Just saved this album for my leg session later. Let’s see if it does the job π π

Slow the eccentric portion of the movement. 3-4 second eccentric. Bet you won’t hit 10 reps π You can also utilise other intensity methods such as drop sets, rest pause and muscle rounds to stimulate in different ways.

Don’t shit yourself on the bench mate π and remember, never trust a fart!
Serious note though, diarrhea had a fucking horrendous effect on your training, incredibly draining so I hope you’re recovering well! -
Great post on your progression and gear use. The shit I hear down the gym is insane. I haven’t even started yet but if it wasn’t for this forum I’d be shitting myself and never even think about it the amount some of these fools are taking! And none of them look anywhere near stage ready!
Should definitely get that sticky section up on the forum and pin that post π
