Today was a bit of a sad day for me. I remember my 4th run I was doing 175lbsx10. Not even sure I want to know what my max is now. Oh well, gotta make this run count.
Eating a full 2700 cals today (that includes the formula). Pretty excited to try convict conditioning tomorrow.
Jesse's Log
HIIT/Convict conditionings
Same HIIT as always.
CC:
Pushups - Did all the progression standards up until the half pushups
1st workset: 1x15, 1x18
2nd workset: 2x16
I was most surprised by the first two workouts actually being as hard as they were. Then I was most surprised that I made it as far as I did. I enjoyed it though, took longer than I expected because of that though.
Leg raises - I had just got done with cardio, my legs were gone so I pretty much did badly on this one. No worries, I'll try my best next time around.
1st workset: 1x40, 1x28, 1x21 (weird I know)
2nd workset: I did not complete this one as the pushups section took longer than I expected and I have class soon. So I had to hit the showers.

Feast Workout 2:
Bench - 180lbs x5
OH pullover - 60lbs x5
Squat - 275lbs x 2(lol), 250lbs x4

One arm row - 65lbs 6,6,6,6,6,6
Romanian DL - 185lbs 6,6,6,6,6,6
Leg press - 6 plates 6,6,6,6,6,6
I have this random soreness between my hip and front thigh. I know it's defintely just sore muscles but I'm not sure how well I'm gonna do with tomorrows HIIT/Convict. Hopefully it wont go too bad.

HIIT/CC:
I cut HIIT short today (just 10 mins) as I wanted to give my legs a little rest before the CC squat portion. I wish I hadn't.
CC:
Verticle pulls
1st workset - 1x15, 1x13, 1x9
2nd - 1x9, 1x9, 1x8
Shoulderstand squat
1st workset - 1x26, 1x20, 1x40
2nd workset - 1x24, 1x36, 1x50
I found these to be a bit ridiculous. The amount of repitions I was able to do seemed to depend solely on how many times I tipped over and had to get back up (I got back up as quickly as possible and continued). But by the time I had to lift myself back up a few times my shoulders were killing me. I noticed I improved towards the end but thought it best to move on. Now I suppose I know what to expect next week.

Feast W/O 3:
Bench - 205x2 (spotter thought I needed help on the 3rd. Not sure whether or not I could have done it.)
OH press - 70lbsx3
Squat - 275x3 (think I could have gone up 5lbs at least.
SLDL - 275x3 (pretty hard lol, still good form though)
EDT:
Incline DB bench 55lbs 6,6,6,6,6,6
One arm row 65lbs 6,6,6,6,6,6
Romanian DL 185lbs 6,6,6,6,6,6
Leg press 270lbs 6,6,6,6,6,6
Had a great workout and I'm very excited to max. Even if I only go up a bit on this run I'd be happy. Then again on my last run I think I went up 10lbs when I didn't expect to go up at all. Diet seems to be going well and I've felt pretty good so far. Aside from typical soreness I haven't noticed any pain.

HIIT/CC:
HIIT - Same old HIIT training as always.
CC - Handstand pushups: Lvl 1, a tad more than intermediate standard.
Bridges: Lvl 2, beginner standard (hard as hell!)
The form on bridges was very weird and I couldn't seem to get the hang of it. So I decided to do a variation with bent knees recommended by the author.
Weigh in:
141.4 lbs
16.8% bf
Scale was being werid this morning so this was after my HIIT/cc.
Should be at about 2500 cals today.

One arm row 65lbs 6,6,6,6,6,6
Romanian DL 185lbs 6,6,6,6,6,6
Leg press 270lbs 6,6,6,6,6,6
Today felt pretty intense. I don't feel like I did very well on this workout. But as I've said before, on a previous run I hadn't felt anything either and went up 10lbs on bench and squat. I'm hoping for the same this time around.
Gonna shoot for a 305 squat, 315 DL (probably less), and a 235 bench (though I'd be happy with a 230 smooth lift).
My calories will be dropping as of today. Workout days will now consist of 2600 cals, HIIT days will be 2450, and nonworkout days will remain at maitnance.

Feast WO 5:
Bench 235xfail, 230xfail, 225xfail (probably should have started at 225 but I think I'm still right around that area)
OH press forgotten...
Squat 305x1, 315xfail
DL 315x1, 325x1
EDT:
incline db bench 55lbs 6,6,6,6,6,6
one arm row 65lbs 6,6,6,6,6,6
Romanian DL 185lbs 6,6,6,6,6,6
Leg press 270lbs 6,6,6,6,6,7 (love doing that to myself lol)
Pretty dissappointed about my bench max but I am really happy with my last squat and DL. My DL max is a brand new PR for me and at 305 squat I'm doing more than what I was when I weighed 147-9. Continued with my workout and had a great one.
BTW, skipped my previous HIIT/CC day due to nausea. Thought I was coming down with a fever but nothing really ever happened. Today woke up feeling a bit of nausea, but it didn't seem to affect me during my workout. So I"m hoping that's a sign of me doing better. If I don't feel well tomorrow I might just skip my HIIT/CC again. Really hate to miss my first GLP day.

HIIT/CC:
Today was a bit different, did CC first then HIIT since my gym opens at 12 sundays. Actually felt better about it. Don't know why I didn't think of it sooner.
CC - Pusshups/Leg raises
Pushups - started at step 4, ended at step 6
- 1st workset: 1x11, 1x11 (poor form on last rep for each.)
- 2nd workset: 1x12, 1x10 (poor form on last rep for each.)
Leg Raises - Stayed on step 1
- 1st workset: 1x40, 1x30, 1x30
- 2nd workset: 1x25, 1x22, 1x20
HATE leg reaises lol. They're crazy hard.
HIIT - decided to switch today up. Did 20 mins of 2 minutes at 8 speed and 2 minutes at 4 speed. Took off a minute of the 4 speed to challenge myself a bit more. Might just consider highering the speed next time though.

Decline bench: 275lbsx10sec, 295lbsx10sec
EDT:
DB curs 30lbs 6,6,6,6
Weighted Dips 25lbs 6,6,6,6
Decided I'd only do four sets considering a second EDT isn't exactly recommmended by Rob.
Really enjoyed todays workout. I think I'm off to a good start.
Weigh in: 142lbs, 15.9%bf
For some reason on an empty stomach my scale always puts me at 18% bf. But on workout days after I drink the formula it puts me right around where I should be. I used to be 18% bf so I pretty much know what that looks like lol. Anyways, seems my bf is going down much more quickly than my BW. I believe I started at 143.? so yea.

Leg Press 270lbs 6,6,6,6,6,7
Static Hold:
Ab Crunch 75lbs or 80lbs (wasn't labeled right) 2x10seconds.
Had a hard time with this one considering I didn't have a partner to help me bring the weight down. So I pretty much put a lot of energy into brgining it down.
I considered bringing my weight up for each EDT workout but I hadn't realized how much heavier it was gonna feel due to the squat prior lol.
Calories dropped today. Going at 2500 on workoutdays now.

I think this diet is working great for me. Been kind of going up on weight and bf is dropping like crazy. I never thought it was possible to drop this much bf while slowly gaining a bit of weight in a short amount of time.
