Hey mate, as meg has said above I have suffered with this issue for years. The only way i can get around it, is to use a safety bar squat or I personally prefer to smith squat and add lifting straps so I can squat with my hands in front of me. Eliminating the tendinitis issue.

Rest day today and you all know the drill. Sleep, check ins, eating and more sleep. Feeling very fresh and ready to hit legs hard tomorrow and hoping for another pain free session. Wish me luck

My advice to people here is to rest up. We are typically stubborn and will not allow ourselves to rest unless is absolutely necessary or we are forced to. Use this time to fully rest, once you get back in the gym you will be thankful you did.

Adding in 20 mins fasted cardio would be a good place to start this could be done on rest days or 3-5 days a week initially. I find this having many benefits and it also sets you up for the day ahead. Keep cardio away from post workout if possible.

Heavy ass pulls and get very strong at hip hinge movements, rdl or deadlifts are perfect

Not at all. Infact the natural guys are the most shredded guys you will come across and obviously this is without any assistance from fat burning drugs.

Rest day today and again another standard day. minimum activity to aid in recovery. my recovery is definitely better taking this approach. rest days in this fashion are good too as it allows me to catch up on all client work without feeling guilty I’ve not moved apart from to eat. It makes you feel lazy as hell but while it’s working I will carry on with this set up.

Hey man. very detailed question which helps a lot. Firstly the lethargy and lack of appetite could point to you needing rest and a deload.
Pictures would really help if you could put some up so we can see if a mini cut is needed or another Avenue.

Cheers both Claire and Jimmy for the quick reply. Pics here are after first meal. In terms of a deload, I took a week of training 3 weeks ago which was much needed and probably overdue, however this was evident from a sharp decline in training performance whereas currently log book numbers are creeping up.

Hopefully these pics help, tried to find some honest lighting. We’re not Olympia ready lol but as I said this is the first time I’ve properly tried to push up my bw.

Thanks again.[/quote]
Thanks Alex. If you took a full week off training a few weeks ago we can establish that a deload isn’t needed. From what I can see in the pictures and the fact you have been pushing up for a while now points to you needing a mini cut. This will also get your appetite back and feeling less lethargic from pushing food. People may suggest 4 weeks short and sharp but been unassisted I personally would opt for around the 6 week mark. If the lethargy doesnt shift then I would recommend some bloodwork too.

Legs tonight with kuba and AJ. But tonight was different for me, for the past 6 months my legs days have been 70% at best, 90% of reps I preform hurt in some way or another but tonight for whatever reason felt good and actually pain free? I have no idea what made this happen but if felt fucking good and had the best leg day in a long long time and it actually feels like I’ve trained my quads rather than broken femurs. I’m crossing everything that this keeps up.
