Last day off and I have been enjoying feasting. I am excited to get back to the gym and really run with this program. I think that for this run I am going to use what the book lays out for the German Loading patter 1 after the first 5 workouts of course.

Great set of workouts! I was extremely sore after the first one and I realize that I should have taken two days off before workout 2. I am taking 2 days off and I will be back in the gym on 10/10/10.
So far so good and I can't wait to get back in the gym.
I am also taking DAA and Maca so I will see how that affects my recovery.

So far so good. I look forward to trying my 1 rep max on my next workout. I am gonna attempt 225 on the bench, which I have never completed while going all the way to my chest and bringing it up from there. Squat is the same story since I am trying to go lower than ever before. I am looking to push out around 250 on the squat while going nice and deep.
Looking forward to it!

Great work!
Whatever you do, take 'em both deep. Honest and clean is the best way to go!!

Feast Workout #5 10/15/10
Well this workout went well. I hit my 1rm goals of 225 for bench and 250 for squat. I felt really strong and confident in these lifts especially on the Bench.

Summary: I have 2 glp workouts under my belt now 1 for bench and 1 for squat and I must say I am enjoying it. It gives me good practice to really perfect my these two lifts. I am still eating above maintenance and I am hovering around 186-187lbs up about 1-2lbs from where I started. I am feeling stronger and bigger with little if any fat gain.
The excel auto calculator is awesome and makes it kinda fun to plug in the numbers and see what I am trying to achieve each workout.
I will be back in the gym on Saturday and look forward to hitting bench again!

Good workouts and I am really enjoying the structure of them. Bench press 205 X 4 reps were all solid chest touches. Squats are coming along nicely. I adjusted my stance to one that feels more natural. It is wider than I was doing, but not sumo at all. I believe It is around shoulder width which is where it should be. Squat workout 3 should be happening on Saturday and resting up for it!

Great workout. The squats are going really well and it feels like I am building a great base of strength from their frequency.
I am hovering around 190lbs up from 185lbs from before famine. If I make it to 195lbs before this run is over I will be the heaviest I have ever been and still quite lean which is fantastic.

Final two workouts of GLP1 coming up and I can't wait! I am hitting all my reps and feeling good overall. I am getting more confident that I will hit these PRs. Also I set a new EDT Pr on leg sled and deadlift during my last squat workout. That is my go to EDT when I want to just kill myself, but in good way.
I do jump straight into 5X5 after these last two GLP workouts don't I?

This makes me very happy! I hit 235 for 1 clean rep all the way down to my chest and back. I almost got 2, but needed a bit of help on the second.
I broke a 2 year bench press plateau in these six glp chest workouts! I didn't think I would ever get past 225. Crazy.
I look forward to breaking my squat pr in a couple days!
Makes me look even more forward to when I run the BP with ecdy.
