The thing that’s starting to irk me too is that I noticed they have been updating the “availability” of certain things. Last week things were that unavailable are available again.
7/19
AM Workout - Bunch of sprints both with and without sled resistance
PM Workout
Snatch - 4x3 (176lbs)
Muscle Snatch - 6x2 (165lbs)
Back Squat - 3x8 (300lbs)
Was supposed to do a 4th set of squats and then some front squats but I ran out of time. Duty (aka the wife) called so I’ll have to...
Not sure if this is okay to share but they are currently getting blasted on some other boards with the same complaints. Radio silent on pretty much any inquiry made in July. Somethings going on for sure.
I’ve tried communicating with them recently as I have inquiry that is becoming an issue. Last monday they did reply and said it was completed. I waited 5 days before reaching out again for an update and have not received a response.
It was a nice little mid ride treat plus I still woke up at a new bodyweight low of 219.0.
I’ve been following a IIFYM philosophy with diet which I’m really enjoying. Makes it easier to not sweat eating/drinking something junky on occasion which I think has been helpful for compliance.

AM Lifting
Power Clean + Push Press - 3x3 (165lbs)
Deadlift - 2x5 (365lbs)
RDL - 4x5 (245lbs)

Deadlifts felt rough but everything else was easy.

Fun little “workout” with the wife 😎
45 min bike ride
1 beer
45 min bike ride home
Looking forward to an off...
I think in general most people can do more with a low bar position but not always.
I tried it prepping for a meet one time and squatted the same as I did high bar. There’s also some elite lifters who use high bar (John Haack, Bryce Lewis etc).
Doesn’t hurt to try though!
There’s an old George Carlin bit where he talks about how voting simply gives us the illusion of choice and either way your fucked. I was too young to truly understand what he meant when I first heard it, but I’m definitely coming around to the idea the older I get.

Yeah I was just feeling a little flat yesterday. I’ll be very interested to see how the Anavar affects things especially since I know it will take time to see noticeable effects to show with the Test C.

Fair question. I always prefer to do my Olympic lifts first but I’m trying to do them in the sequence that the program has written. I think its because the first phase of this program is focused on hypertrophy that’s just my guess.
7/12 (Week 1 Day 1 “Base Week”)
AM Session
Long dynamic warm up followed by 10 sled resisted sprints and some hurdle mobility work
I love doing athletic things like sprints, plyos etc. I also enjoy it a hell of a lot more than cardio so I’m going to include it in my training for while I’m...
Even if they’re not the focus of your training I think the Olympic lifts are great for waking the body up and helping you feel more explosive.
315 is impressive regardless of form!
Got that covered. I have a program written for me designed specifically for Super total. Its a 12 week program that will set me up to peak at the end. Intensity is low at the beginning with higher volume. Generally I’m pretty good at staying disciplined and following programs.
The simplest way ive found to get going is to multiply your bodyweight by 12. That number is your initial daily calorie target.
I use that number while making sure I get 1g protein/lbs of bodyweight. Im down 8lbs since the start of June (would be more if the 4th of July didn’t happen 😂). I...
