Dips BW 6,6,6,6,6,6
DB Curls 30lbs 6,6,6,6,6,6

Wow, this workout was intense. Started feeling very tired by the end of my first EDT. Was dissapointed with my gym for not allowing the use of a dip belt anymore. But BW seemed to work well enough. If you're wondering, yes I did forget to do my static hold. Will get it done next time.

I have a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu class later today. It's a beginners class so there's a bunch of little kids around. My friend and I were the only young adults there and today I will be the only one since my friend works at 6. Lol, oh well.

Great work man!!

Now don't be concerned, if you miss a rep here or there on GLP 1. Completely natural and nothing to worry about..

What you DON'T want, is to miss multiple reps, multiple sessions. The easy fix is to carefully arrange rest between set/workout frequency.

Rest longer in between sets where the weights get heavier, insert an extra rest day where needed. Doing so will allow your body the TIME necessary, to grow larger and stronger...

Hope that helps!!... :)

Keto is amazing for fatloss (If you can get a hold of Rob's keto article via MASS, I highly recommend it.). I'm sure Rob has some more information on this and an opinion on how to run it but if you're trying to lose weight quickly, keto's a great way to do it.

Any idea where I could get a hold of that article?
Yea, I've grown to like running different phases of diets. Especially for a person like myself. I feel I've always been inbetween on fat% and muscle mass. I don't have a whole lot of fat, but I'm not at the accepted amount either. Nor do I have large amounts of body mass, but I don't have very little either. So I believe running short phases of these types of diets allows me to maintain the amount of body fat lost as well as the amount of body mass gained. So I figured running famine, feast, and then keto might be a great idea for that. But I've also realized that I probably wont be able to use "the formula" during cruise if I were to do that.
Thank you for the input.

I got it for free when I ordered the "Quick Cuts" stack off of MASS. I'm fairly certain it's available there.

I vaguely recall writing this, a LONG time ago....

Keto IS a terrific route to fat loss, yet is largely dependent upon somatype.
Here, I'm referring to the fact that ectomorphs will risk losing more muscle than meso/endomorphs. Thus, the ectomorph needs to be cautious, and include periodic carb re-feeds (especially, intra workout!!!), to mitigate any muscle loss.

Hope that helps!!!

Well I'm definitely not an ecto. But would you recomend taking maybe half a scoop of pure karabolyn on workout days?
