    275 today after yesterday rest day so a couple lbs down.

    But feel good !

    Appetite back to being none existent but that’s normal for me when trying to take my body weight up into new territory

    Upping fats and lowering carbs right now helps a little

    Fats going up to 150-200 on some some days depending on what my last meal is

    Last nights Sunday cheat meal was 2 x 12 inch pizzas and a sticky toffee pudding cake to myself

    So back day today and if felt awesome. Lot of endurance and strength.

    Back and abs
    Wide grip pull downs 3 x 8-12
    Seated cable row 3 x 8-12
    Single arm low row 3 x 8-10
    Neutral pull downs 3 x 8-10
    Seated chest supported row 3 x 6-10
    Cable ab crunches 4 x 10-20

    Just cos you ran a deload 4 weeks ago doesn’t mean you definitely don’t needs other one. But also, it can be an issue of not enough calories and / or not enough sleep. Youre 21 , if I was you I’d eat more and fuel the hard training, get some naps on the day and see if this helps, if not, take a deload

    274 today same as yesterday

    Yesterday’s leg session wiped me out. Got all my food in, and replaced my last meal with an off plan. Cheese burger , chicken burger and 2 fries.
    Went down easy and clearly needed

    Scared back the volume on delts and traps today to accommodate the extra recovery needed

    But felt strong, full and pumped. Awesome session

    Anabolics going up next week. Will go to 800 test 300 eq for a few weeks then when things slow I’ll go to
    1000 test 500 eq and see how I get on. I guess I’ll be at that dose for a good while

    Delts and traps
    Panatta side laterals 5 x 8-12
    Reverse pec dec 4 x 8-12
    Cable close grip shrugs 4 x 6-10

    October 4, 2024 at 8:57 am in reply to: Balancing calories on rest and training days

    Generally rest day has much lower energy demand then training day BUT still has a high demand recovery wise to grow, and also depends if you’re active or not.
    Most lifters will lower calories on rest days, by way of carbs. But if you need the carbs to stay higher due to your workload / how beat up you are from training then that’s ok too

    Why is this even a question? And why is it relevant what Dallas’s readings were? If this is what “excites you” I’m sorry but you need to rethink why you’re bodybuilding

    If you’re confused, just count everything. BUT , aim for your main protein intake to come from complete sources like chicken beef eggs whey etc.

    October 1, 2024 at 4:42 pm in reply to: question

    If it wasn’t upper lower I’d say a 3rd day is sometimes ok if it’s a smaller muscle group. But the demand U/L puts on recovery is very high so I agree with everyone else here
