Hahhaha it's just not my favorite, if I do DL it's light weight high reps so I've never really attempted a max weight. 193 was super easy which I was surprised at lol.
Squats all day baby! I love squat days.

I'd like to take this opportunity to open a can of worms; what do you all do on a cut? What do you change? How do you eat and train?
I don't change training at all, and switch to slow carb. Dabbled in paleo, but root veggies still puff me up and I like beans too much to give up.
It's tough, but 6 weeks of that and it's a shredfest. Plus I don't eat bad on a bulk...just ice cream before bed 4-5 nights a week.
Edit: for added detail, I'm ~195 and ~16% BF right now and I've been gaining since October.
Drop the deca in favor of tren

Just started a cut this week.. a lot of chicken and egg whites and some lean ass protein shakes.. and bust my ass at the gym.
I'd post a progress pic but seems I'm the only one who does so it gets kinda weird haha

No one wants to see all this, so I'll have to leave ya hanging. After spring we will see if I'm out of the 240s yet lol.

Sounds like your doing better than I
, usually make small adjustments to my fats and carbs. I haven't been tracking my macros lately which is probably why my weight has fluctuated so much recently. Was 217 4 days ago and 212 at the gym this morning after work out in sweaty clothes no shoes. Not the best recipe for success:rofl:Also been skipping the gym after work lately because I'm tired and being a whimp. More cardio has been good though:thumb:
Girl you gotta perfect the sh*t we don't like :hug:... I hate squats, but probably put more effort into them than any lift. Mainly they aggravate my low back, and stymy my other lifts because of the soreness. I'm squatting 3+ again relatively pain free so small steps.
Any who, 193 is a good pull and you should be proud of that. I bet with your leg strength, a little focus and your deadlift will go through the roof:thumb:
F-it I'm on a roll... Decided to try squatting in my deadlift shoes today (flat ass Nike inflict wrestling shoes) Seen some bad dudes squatting in flats and thought maybe it will change some of the stress on my low back for the better...

Haha yea we all have lifts we just don't like, I think bcuz it took me long to get a decent form so I was just uncomfortable going heavy (once my boss and I did a training session and he had me do 50-40-30-20-10 DL with sprints in between sets) after that I hated deadlifts

There it is, lay it on me Albert. Not the best view for a form check but how does it look?

Only thing I saw and I do it to so don't think I'm calling you out, your hips came up quick and almost like you low backed that a little. Could also be the angle. I'm trying to get myself setup so I get tight, grab the bar and sit back almost just letting leverage initiate the pull. But I also have a completely facked back so it helps me not hurt either. But cudos on a double overhand, bet those forearms screamed. And...CONGRATS!!!! 505 is bad ass man
No I do pop my hips up first, only after I gash my shin open like I did with the 455 lol. And thanks but I had on my versa grips lol. After I rake my shin a few times I find myself trying to keep the bar off of my legs and end up using my lower back a bit more than I probably should.
