Yeah, I'll probably buy one tomorrow. I used to have one and have been looking for it for the past few days, but no luck. I'll probably find it a month after I buy the new one.

I'm lactose intolerant. *cries*
Hi there sweetie! I haven't seen you in a while and I am very happy to see you back here! With SS and time I am sure you can change your whole body composition.Good for you!
If you really need to improvise the squats, I would say that check out goblet squat.
Hi
Ah! That's a good idea. I'll give the squats a try normally tomorrow and if it seems like it's going to end up being a bad idea, I'll do goblet squats.
Thanks for the thought!You're seeing neurosurgeons for your back now?

made some protein cheesecake, i really love this stuff
Nooo! I just found out cheese is really high in calories. Well, I guess it's not that surprising, but I love cheese, and it's gonna be a hard blow to cut it out of my diet.
Cheese isn't an issue I'm also lactose intolerant so not eating it isn't an issue. So having said that I'm looking to start taking a protein supplement and I need one that isn't going to give me the shits. I've only ever done the nitro creatine way back in the late 90's and early 2000's when I lifted and I loved the results but I need something for growth now. I'm back in my routine with daily cardio and weight training and I am extremely surprised at how quick my body got used to exercise again hell I thought I was going to tire myself to death but instead its quick started my metabolism again and I'm anything but tired. Any suggestions?

I had nearly 100g of cheese last night. I was just a touch short on my protein and fat and had some calories to spare so I thought fuck it, why not.
Delicious.
Edit - Oh, and for the hell of it I skipped my creatine yesterday to see what would happen. No noticeable change in my weight (within 100g of yesterday's measurement).

Lol yeah I always use the safety bars on the Smith (not using the guided bar though). If I drop the bar it is literally a half inch from my neck... *gulp*
Edit: 185x5 and 205x3 both felt pretty good. Dare I try 225?

230 or nothing!
I don't know how weight ranges work in lbs!
Pancakes
hot, steaming, as melted butter slips into the cracks, drizzled with sticky sweet syrup OH GOD
Dude, dude. This is the perfect time to curl in the squat rack without consequences!

Lol god I hate that. Even better is someone doing sit-ups inside one.

Haha well your comment made me thrown on an extra 5 pounds (you can see the 2.5s dangling on the ends) and I BARELY got it up. You can also see my left arm reconsidering the challenge.
Hey... Ive never actually done 230!
Nice one.
I can't be the only one who wants to motorboat those pies.
I love cheesecake AND I need protein! I definitely have to check out this recipe later.
I know you were probably asking the other guys, but just in case; I'm just learning to count calories, so I got nothing for you. I don't even know what creatine is. Sorry.
Only 3 hours of sleep today, should be a fun one. It's deload week at least.
5s week is always the most rough week on 531 for me. The last few reps can be menacing. But you just have to do it.

Thanks for the link! I am liking what I see in the nutrient info. Is protein powder something I can find at my grocery store, or do I have to look at my local drug store for that?

is that actually any good? A lot of the recipes on that site that I've tried turn out like fairly standard muscle food. Macrotastic, but really not high on the enjoyability scale.

You should be able to but the quality of the protein powder will impact how the cheesecake will taste.
I've had non fitness people love it. I think it tastes great. Non muscle foody.

Nice, will give it a blast then.
Any particular brand I should look for?
Really? I've just started calorie counting, so I'm not minding my carb/fat/protein intake too closely, but I always hit it or go over pretty easily. Avocado and butter are two things I noticed are really high in fat.
Yep... I recall you're on low-carb a few pages ago, right? I started two weeks ago. ~95g net carbs, 160g protein, and about 190g fat. I need to readjust my meal plan to have about 140g protein and about 204+g fat. Too much protein for my current BW; will adjust as I gain weight.
Yeah. This is my meal plan; I make meal plans and do all the calculations beforehand instead of traditional IIFYM and eat and whatever as you go. Going to remove most of the bacon I eat for breakfast and add a bit of butter. Looking to add a fat bomb for dessert with dinner. I haven't posted here about my nutrition, but I was on a high-carb diet and I was pretty miserable for a good portion of the five months. Felt hungry all the time so I had to snack often. Switching to a low-carb diet is more for me. With breakfast around 6:30am, I can last until 2-3pm whereas on the high-carb diet, I would get hungry around 10. No more snacking. Less cooking time. More tasty food.

Its really tough for me on a cut. 90g fat is 810 calories, more than half of my daily calories. I just feel like you don't get much of a "full" feeling per calorie from it compared to protein/carbs.
Adding a 1oz serving (110 calories) of cheese to a meal feels like a waste of calories sometimes. 1tbs olive oil? 100 calories gone. 1 tbs peanut butter? 100 calories gone.
It's just a food quantity issue for me

Yeah, the fat thing is tough on a cut. Feels like eating next to nothing, especially if you're doing some of it with oils.

More than half your calories? Christ lol. My maintenance with my current activity is around 2650-2700 calories. So it would be like 2300-2500 calories on a cut for me. But if I decide to cut, I would probably try keto since my net carb intake is relatively close (compared to moderate or high-carb) to their cutoff of 25-35g net carbs.

I myself love Optimal Nutrition. But really, if you like the whey you use for shakes, then it will be just fine for your cheesecake.

My favorite. Always do 1/2 whey 1/2 casein. Love it.

Well, add tennis elbow to the list of injuries I've learned/learning to deal with. I think I have a handle on it. Not sure though. It's been bad enough at times for me to feel like my arm should be in a sling. Been going on since before my strongman comp.

Thanks, but fixed
I will post a video tomorrow of myself getting crushed by a 200lb squat...
Pork ribs, in the slow cooker with 1 bottle of ketchub and 1 bottle of grape jelly. That's it.
SO FUCKING GOOD.
The week break did nothing for it??

Holy sh*t that sounds AMAZING
As good as it sounds, that's a lot of carbs though lol.

That sucks. And it's not like any exercise doesn't use your elbow.
Maybe just RICE every time you finish lifting?
Cut the ingredients in half. Not the ribs. Don't cut the ribs.

I rolled the shit out of my forearms and Tricep insertions at the elbow and do a wall stretch with palm supinated fingertips down pressed against the wall Palm flat against it arm locked straight out then turn away and hold for 30 seconds. It's helped immensely.
Gonna train log and circus dumbbell today.

Ketchub should be a word, primarily for use when ketchup, applied liberally, causes unexpected stimulation.
And with that out of my system, I've decided to get the 11MM Inzer Lever Belt. Thanks to those that chimed in. I couldn't help myself and got the Red, White, and Blue version though. Every time I squat/dead an eagle will shed a tear.
