So, rolling into the first two weeks of feast workouts, you're recommending five workouts with four sets each. That seems kind of light, and I'm eager to start hitting things with more volume. Can I incorporate EDT blocks during the first two weeks of feast (I could do them on off days if it's bette...

Just did my workout. After Wednesday, I decided to go LIGHT. Especially because I didn't get but about five hours of sleep last night. My legs felt like they had more in them at the end, so I guess I held a little too much back. I was definitely breathing hard by the end, though. It was more like he...

I'm gonna leave for it in about an hour. I'm planning on doing ridiculously light weight for the squats. Like 135. I'm sure after five sets of 12 with no rest, it'll feel like death anyway.

BRB, not gonna be able to sit on a toilet until Monday
BRB, walking down stairs sideways.

:shock:

Famine - Day 5 My heart rate went up considerably this morning, and I hit my 8 BPM above baseline :). I weigh myself on gym scales, so I haven't done so since Wednesday. Curious to see whether I lost the requisite 1 lb/day. Rob, if all indications are there that my body is in Alarm state, I know yo...

Thanks again! Famine - Day 4 Hungry as all hell. I still feel great, energy levels are still high, and I don't feel sick or "off". Just really, really hungry! I was down three pounds as of mid-day on Day 3. Well, off to drink some caffeine. If it was easy, everybody would do it ;) Edit: It...

I'm curious to know how you fare. Whether I just have crap endurance, or whether this is normal. Good luck!

SLDL and GHRs always make my hamstrings hurt. But I can't picture doing either with deadlifts.

Famine - Day #3 1350 calories. Wow. I vastly underestimated: * The impact of going straight from bench to OH press without a break. * Only 1 minute between sets. * The impact of a really low calorie diet on muscular endurance. A normal chest workout would start with incline DB bench 3x8-10 using 75...

Thanks man. So far, so good. I woke up with a different, more intense kind of hunger than normal, but for some reason my energy levels are still through the roof. I feel great, and I can't sit still. That said, today will be challenging. I have workout #2, and I'm going to go skate on the Hurricanes...
