Pfff! I did 35 min last night! And yes, I'm intentionally ignoring the rest of your workout.

And in about a year you'll be saying "Congrats on lifting heavier than me."

Solid technique day, other than the fact that I got sunburned yesterday doing yardwork, and squatting and benching was pretty uncomfortable. Pretty happy with how my form is coming along, especially squats are starting to look a lot better imo. Definitely think 3x/week frequency is helping.

Diet update for the last 2 weeks. Under ate last week and gains stagnated. Still gained about 0,8kg for the month so that's decent. Goal to gain 1kg over the next 4 weeks, and reach 91kg by the end of the 16 week program.

HBD!

Where in Bangkok does one find this burger?

(though the upper bun 75% larger than the lower bun caps it's score potential at 33/37)

Thanks! This was at a small place called Firehouse bar & pub at Sukhumvit 11.

I think the bun is photo playing tricks, I don't remember the top bun being that much bigger in person.

Not sure if you'd recognize BKK if you were to visit again btw. The streets are eerily quiet after the streetfood ban.

Went for a slight bump in TM for squats and DL. 2,5kg for squats, 5 for DL. However has a sort of wave structure to it as in week 5 both the reps and % goes down slightly, to ramp back up in the weeks to follow, so still doing slightly less weight and reps than last week.

This week also doing paused DL instead of deficit. First time doing these, they feel pretty good. Not sure if I should pause longer though.



Messed up and did 7 instead of 8, so did 9 reps the next set.

rAv,

Yes, I think a slightly longer pause is probably indicated.

JM press is a new move for me, and nearly squashed my face when I loaded a bit too much weight, lol.

Still had DOMS from monday, especially biceps. Been a long time since I had bicep DOMS.

I rarely do direct bicep work and always feel it for days also which is why they are tiny. I'm still feeling it from doing broceps on Monday as well.

I have been reading conflicting things regarding the streetfood ban. Some reports indicated that they were pretty much wiping out streetfood but other reports have said that they are merely cleaning things up a bit. What's your take on it?

If you start doing them 3 times per week it'll stop hurting

My guess is they just want to clean up, and mostly keep streets and sidewalks from being blocked by food carts. Downtown the streets are narrow so basically this means they get cleared out because they have no room to move. But I live a little outside of the centre and there is more room here, and there's still streetfood to be had here.

Fairly easy all around. Only 4's today and same or slightly less weight than last week.

Controlled the eccentric a bit more on incline bench, looks better imo.
