Sorry to hear about the job. I hope you find a new job that's as good or better. Sounds like your boss is an okay guy.

You'll definitely lose some weight from off the bat from the TCD. With my CKD, my weight fluctuated by 7-9lbs between each refeed.

I hate to hear about the job. Good luck. Keep us posted.

Thanks Ross.

7-9lb is alot!

floor press is usually lower than your bench...so don't be discouraged. it's a tough little exercise.

iron_worker 01-07-2009 07:13 AM

Oh ok, well I thought due to the decreased ROM it would be higher.

it is with board presses....my numbers climbed alot when i did those....but floor press...its tough :)

Just to throw a spanner in the works, I have pressed more with floor presses than flat bench!!! Sucky huh?!!!:biglaugh:

I Still cant get past that 250lb hump on bench.:lame:

Pitysister 01-07-2009 02:31 PM

maybe it works different on the bottom of the world :)

iron_worker 01-08-2009 07:52 AM

Ya there was a guy with us that pressed more than he benches on floor press. He doesn't always do full reps on bench though so I thought that might have something to do with it. Maybe he is used to doing partial ROM? I dunno.

Thoughts

Well I cheated a little on my diet today. I went over to my uncles for supper and had some rice and whatnot but o well. I think it really helped at the so w.e. One meal wont' kill me. I think I'm going to have to put one of my carb up days on wednesday and one on fri over to saturday. Otherwise you start feeling pretty depleted by the end.

NICE Box Squats boyyyeeeee.

I actually feel better the longer I am on no carbs!! For the first 2 days or so I feel like shit, but once my body adapts I feel great.It might be worth just sticking to the low carbs for a while try to get through that shitty feeling and see how it goes.Just my 2 cents tho.:)
