Glad to hear you’re healing up quickly!

 

That’s not bad at all!

 

@strengthordie and @Supra TT

You guys should be proud of me, I’ve consumed 200g+ carbs a day for the last 4 days.

 

Who are you and what did you do to my ex

 

Now the real question,,, quality carbs, or crap carbs?

 

Beer is of the highest quality carbs.


Actually right now, not the best quality.
Unless I'm willing to compromise my performance on my ultras, which I'm not, you are going to be taking in some form of sugar for fueling. So I'm eating junk like candy bars, oreos, nutter butters, peanut butter and nutella sandwiches, dextrose powder etc.
I have to practice my fueling strategies as well, I can't wait until race day to invent my methods.

It's an unfortunate reality of endurance training. Not happy about it, but it has to be done.

Outside of fueling for my runs, I eat very well. I eat all whole foods.

 

Orange juice, rice and oats!

 

I'm finally back on a decent diet...(didn't eat anything) I fell off there for 10 days or so... That's not like me... Anyways, back at it. Time to bulk... Slowly this time. Last year I went ham and it wasn't good. Gonna take things slow.




Inb4 3 weeks from now I'm 220 from 199

Be well

 

I will say this. The last two weeks fasting has been hell.

Not entirely sure if its due to the carbs or the fact that I’m in the land of insanity on the cardio (68 miles scheduled this week).

 

Thicccccc

 

The shoes add 17% extra thiccness

 

They make tiny calves look a little less tiny. Worth every penny

 

Benefit of a home gym...the only one mocking me relentlessly is my wife, but she isn't focused on the small calves

 

Gayyyyyyyyy

 

Just for you boo

 

Corgi-licious

 

Cmon slackers. We need more noodz, workout stories and shit posting.

have a “timber frame carry” event in my comp in January. Says 450lbs. Wanted a sick leg pump today so threw 420 on the hex bar just for shits and giggles. Eaaasssyyy weight. Stoked for the comp.

 

You have tiny legs. If you had red hair you could pass as a leprechaun

 

Nothing exciting here to report.

I am skipping Nationals though.....

I don't feel I am where I need to be and the timing of it isn't gonna work with my schedule. Sucks but it is what it is. Having said that the big comp I won in Jan 2020 is back on for Jan 2021 so I have started prep for it. It's gonna be massive. It's now a ProAm show with 1st-3rd getting Nationals bids AND an Arnold qualification.

Plan is to be at 265-270 by mid November then start a little test/tren bulk to 290ish. I'll still be the lightest heavyweight again, but I like it that way.

 

Easy 9 miler this morning to start the day.
Beautiful run. I love super crisp morning fall air.
