JlCh - Adding Plates with the BP! 2nd run
To think I'd be sick of eating so quickly after famine, lol. I added up everything I ate today, so a diet update:
Cals: 1962
Fat: 57 grams
Carb: 278 grams
Pro: 96 grams
Should I aim to lower carbs and increase protein? I still have a good 6 hours of time to eat. I don't plan to keep a log of my meals/calorie intake, but thought it may be a good idea to check once or twice a week to make sure I'm hitting the numbers appropriately.

Not sure what type of cereal, but consider the following:
BEST SOLUTION: Steel cut old fashioned oats with a dab of natural PB, some generic chocolate WPC (you wouldn't want to heat a cold processed product like MassPro) and a dash of cinnamon with some blueberries/raspberries sprinkled on top.
Mmmmmmmm

The cereal was the bad processed kind, but I had been craving it for a few weeks. Just couldn't resist and I was about to have eggs/hashbrowns/toast, unfortunately had no bacon. And speaking of breakfast, I forgot about the 4 eggs that I didn't include in the calculations of yesterday, which would've boosted up the protein by 28 grams or so.
Ah, first lifting day today! Pretty excited although seems to be a bit of a slow morning for me. Weighed in for the first time since I started Feast:
190.4 (+1.8)
Can't wait to see how I'm going to do today . Also, should Adaptogen N be taken on an empty stomach (2 hours after eating) or does it not matter?

Was so excited all day until I got in the gym lol. I knew I shouldn't have went that high but felt like I could do it and didn't come anywhere near the reps. Also, my squat was super low but my static hold was super high? Not sure how that worked out and would like an opinion on what you think happened there.
Feast w/o #1:
Bench: 215x6 (6th rep had help on, was an error with weight on my part)
DB Pullover: 70x8
DB Incline press: 70x5x5x5x5x5 (25)
DB single arm row: 70x6x6x5x5x5 (27)
Squat: 225x2, 205x8 (realized the 225x8-10 wasn't going to happen)
Dimel DL: 105x10
SLDL: 185x5x5x5x5x5 (25)
Hack Squat?: 135x5x5x5x5x5 (25)
Squat SH: 315x10 seconds, 385x10 seconds (PR)
The hack squats were done on the leg press? I'm not sure if I have the correct name for it. Was kind of like an angled squat on there. I had about half my foot on the platform pushing with my heels, as I've never done the exercise before. As for the static holds, I could've went up to 405 pretty easy imo. I'll always do the static holds on the smith machine, as my squat rack at the gym has safety bars at hip levels and a mirror off to the right. I don't feel it's safe to be unsafe there :p, so will always do SH on the smith machine.
