maccaz 2018 prep log

[maccaz]

rested yesterday, squat tonight.

body weight hit a new low of 113.6, so down 8.4kg in 5 weeks exactly.

cheat meals seem to speed things up as had the big buffet on saturday and dropped a lot of weight since then.

 

growing in right places too, my work shirts that fitted fine at 122 odd are now tight on my arms and shoulders, and i have new stretch marks coming up all the time in my armpit,front delt area. waist is down heaps. good body composition change im really happy with.

Lol not doing gpc Aus next year. Already going over end of year for work and then again early next year for work. Cbf going over twice more to qualify and then for nats. Was potentially a plan but that's turned to shit now that I took this contract on. Maccas should go alright by then in the 100s if he can get down there and keep his strength and get stronger.

[FellowshipOfTheRon]

yeah if macca progress next year anything liike this year, gonna be beasting it in lighter class.

[maccaz]

To clarify I never expected to be anywhere near realtalk lifts was just being a smart ass. At this rate by the time I weigh 100 I'll be totalling 200 ?

[Realtalk]

Aim to be better bro!

[Realtalk]

Also you in Aus it is a really good powerlifting country, got their shit sorted. A novice comp over there is bigger than a nationals here. Compete lots mate, you should be a sick lifter in no time.
