The way things are looking saturday will be my last day, once the trenazone is done I'm starting pct.
I did chest today and did not go below 8 reps. Nice and slow controlled movement.
Nice vids bro. Looking damn strong. You'll have 315 very soon.
Damn that sucks. One of the downsides of liquids.Quote:

it was only a few ml... I got more done in the first 3 weeks than i was hoping in 6 so it's no real loss.Quote:

I've been using the Westside barbell (ie conjugated method) as my training method for the past 5-6 months. I'll say that I'm hooked! I also do GPP and cardio sessions aside from my DE, ME, AND RE sessions to try and maintain my current leanness. The fact is, I'm looking to get stronger, it's that simple. I'm just not trying to gain too much fat in the process. I've been able to maintain a consistent uptick in strength by really working on my weaknesses (lower posterior chain, core, triceps, upper back, and rear delts).Quote:

RRR
I appreciate your insight, the fact is... I'm not really sure what direction i want to go. I have traditionally lifted for strength and taken for granted that I stayed lean and aesthetic. now that I'm older the strength has come back but the aesthetics have gone out the window.Quote:

I've been looking for this exact quote from Dave Tate for a couple days now... Here you go.Quote:

This is my new outlook on training. Training for strength is just 1 phase, but I always aim towards that goal... To become STRONG(ER).
