To update my stats as of this morning (prior to 1st GLP workout): Weight- 234 Stomach- 43" (.5 inch bigger) Chest- 43.5" (.5 inch bigger) Arms- 14.75" (.5 inch bigger!?) So, real happy with arm growth. Not happy with fat stomach, but my diet had not been real good up til the last coup...

I could use some ideas for the GLP coming up. I have this mild sports hernia that flares up when I bend forward (like I would need to do with deads, 1 arm rows, etc.). So I'm not sure what exercise to do for the low body EDT's. I used leg press (and will be my primary lift for GLP) so far to get my ...

Forgot to log cardio yesterday:

45 min elliptical

THanks man. Sorry- I didn't make it clear. I use the smith machine with the "stops" on it. But I would prefer a spotter over hoping that the stops hold, should something bad happen. That's why I've opted for the 2-3 rep max. I do appreciate the concern though- really! I will plan on moving...

I could, but I feel like I have delayed this phase for so many crazy reasons, I'm kind of looking forward to some progress in GLP. Since I also don't have a spotter, it would still be a 2-3 rep max attempt.
What are your thoughts?

Did my MAX workout prior to GLP. Couple notes: Bench- i had a mental lapse, and forgot to add a 10 to both sides. didn't realize it until I had stripped the other side. I could use some help estimating my max for the BP because of this. Chins- i'm finding this to aggravate my mild sports hernia thin...

Nice job man!

You are ahead of me in the phases, so I am actually planning on following a bit of your GLP planning. You are helping me without even knowing it!

Yea man, I hit strep throat/bronchitis 3 weeks ago and still feeling the effects in my upper chest from the bronchitis. Coughing a bit and the stuffy nose doesn't seem to want to go away either. It hit 4 workouts before my feast finished and put me out for a couple weeks an forced me into cruise. J...

Thanks Rob. I was pretty happy with workout #4 also, then not so happy with yesterday's workout... But it's good to hear that you thought it was good too. Thanks for the input on vit C. I usually do 5,000 IU of vit D3 in the winter, but hadn't started it yet this year. Guess I'm starting now. Will t...

Just getting over a nasty virus, so again had to sit through a LONG delay between workouts. At this rate, I will be in FEAST phase for 6 months! Worked out today, and weights were mostly lower than last workout. That's pretty disappointing, but maybe it's because I'm getting over this bug. Could als...

Good luck on the next workout!

FINALLY!!!! Finally after 16 days... I completed workout #4 of feast!! Back muscle is healed, just getting over a cold, and we are in the new house (no more moving)! I used the pounds from workout #2 as a guide, thinking that the reps were similar, and that I would probably have to use less weight ...
