LJ’s “ TrainHard” Journey
1st Feast Phase complete....
Yesterday ( 8/28 ) I completed my first feast phase and GLP. My strength has noticeably increased with minimal recovery issues. It has been FOREVER since I've lifted anything heavy so I'm pretty excited to run a second cycle. I will run at least a two week cruise phase and then rinse and repeat...
Decline BP 1RM start: 215 lbs
Decline BP 1 RM after BP and GLP: 225
I can't do squats due to needing my left knee scoped. This surgery is planned for next Feb. I can do leg press because I can stabalize my knee..
Leg press 1 RM start: 6 plates each side
Leg press 1 RM after BP and GLP: 7 plates each side supersetted with 8 partials then right in to a 20 sec static!!!
Loving this program.....

Re: 1st Feast Phase complete....
Update......I cannot wait to begin my second run of BP. I am expecting HUGE gains after this next run. After 12 months of following "Hypertrophy Max", designed by IFBB Pro Ben Pakulski, I forgot what lifting heavy felt like. After taking what I learned from B Pak (how to focus on the muscle being worked), and incorporating the Blueprint program, it's like starting over and experiencing "newbie" gains!!!walkerl60 wrote:Yesterday ( 8/28 ) I completed my first feast phase and GLP.

I am starting my famine phase over due to work schedule. I am smack dab in the middle of an annual audit at work and won't be able to eat and workout like the feast phase calls for, so I just decided to redo the famine phase this week. I figure it will work well with the stress levels I will encounter...

Awesome man. It's worth it. I just had to do a bit of a re-set too. It feels so good when you grab that bar again.walkerl60 wrote:I am starting my famine phase over due to work schedule.
