dude we're pretty much the same person

but your cut is a lot deeper than mine lol

those are almost my exact macro counts, though you're at more protein
i thought cutting to 150-155 was good, damn man

 

I was losing a couple pounds a week for the first few weeks, then it kinda slowed down. I've never really "tried" to lose weight before, honestly, so I wasn't sure how it would go. I'm really just trying to do it without starving myself.

I've debated getting up early in the mornigs to get some cardio or some light lifting in before work to get the metabolism working earlier. Then I remembered I like my sleep too much (he says as he types this at 1:45 am...).

 

at that weight, your bf% must have you looking like a fucking statue

 

Eh...My abs still aren't showing through like I want. I haven't worked them very hard...so that's my fault. But I'm more cut/vascular than I've been since high school.

 

You don't gotta work abs to have abs

 

Truth...but you have the tendency to then get blocky abs... which is only good for body building Lol

 

truth. but its also why my grip is my weak link for DLs. I feel like I could lift a solid 25 lbs more but halfway up the lift my bitch ass grip starts to slip

 

Just a little more.

 

Are you using chalk? Alternate grip?

 

Nothing like being pumped to go to the gym in the morning and having to stay home because my daughter woke up super early. Oh well, I'll have to try for tonight.

 

Checked the forecast today...100% chance of paaaain

 

Alt grip yes, chalk no. Although I've considered it. At this moment I do deadlifts in our bonus room which is carpeted so I don't wanna muck it up too much with chalk. Were moving in 6 months though so I'll probably get a real gym membership then instead of the neighborhood rec

 

You're welcome

 

i've been doing lightweight cleans/jerks for volume as a cardio exercise the past week, also to break in my shoes

dont think theyre too taxing on the cns, and dont really think it'll be a problem- thoughts?

 

New house is a little down the street from the gym... with evenly spaced light poles on the road....sprint/walk/sprint ftw

I'd think as long as you're not doing them 7 days a week, you'd be fine. I used to do clean and presses twice a week, once on leg day and once on shoulder day and it wasn't too bad....that was too much cardio for me though lol
