This is true. Hits just knows what he wants and he is going for it. I seem to like to be flustered about my direction of lifting at all times. lol

I just read the 5/3/1 stuff. It sounds pretty awesome. I'm thinking about starting it up in february after the DR. Not sure which template yet but it sounds like a no BS program that is very consistent.

Thoughts

Well I'm really frustrated with my diet. I can see the results on my body but its making me feel like shit... literally.

This is the 3rd week in arow I'll be forced to take a laxative. WTF is going on? I thought 40-30-30 was supposed to be a pretty "balanced" diet?

On a positve note I talked to a PL'er today that was very friendly. He said he was doing strongman and recently has started training for PL'in. He is putting up some damn impressive weights. 17xxlb geared total I think. He said he is heading to Nationals in Quebec. Is that where you're going Talo?

IW

Nope. I'm not sure what fed he id , CPU maybe ?

The nationals I'm doing are in Calgary with the GPC.

Thoughts

Well I'm up a pound but I figured I would be. Not sure where to take this diet. I have to sit down and figure out something new I guess tomorrow. Too bad its grey cup day 2morrow!

Bench
bar x 10
135lb x 5
165lb x 4
185lb x 3
205lb 5x5

I am quite sure this is a volume PR for me. It wasn't even as much of a grinder as I thought. Nice.

Squats
mobility work
bw 2x5
bar x 5
135lb x 5
185lb x 3
215lb x 1
235lb 5x3

The mobility work really makes a nice difference. I feel like I am solid right off the get go instead of the first couple sets being really awkward. I decided to drop the volume on this a little and continue progressing.

Standing Rows
165lb 5x5

I think my upper back need some volume right now. My lats are not too impressive.

Thoughts

Well I've been off the diet since thursday. I've got a new plan figured out. I substituted tuna for ground beef, added some broccoli, and am switching the ratios to 40-20-40 (P-C-F). I will start this on wedneday and see how it goes.

IW

How did things change for you since yo stopped your diet?

When your on do you write down your food intake everyday ? Do you weigh everything out?

When I'm on my diet I don't write down everything I eat because I follow the same diet plan everyday (or at least 5 weekdays). I weigh out my food so its the same each day. On the weekends I don't worry too much about total cals but I get as many clean meals as possible and if I go out for supper or somethign I dont' worry about it.

When I was off my diet things got better but didn't totally go back to normal. I am starting to wonder if I should go see a doctor?
