Took some Superpump250 before workout, didn't feel much mentally. Bit of a pump in back and lats. First time taking it, not really that impressed.

Felt a bit drained the last week so time now to make a change, cutting as of 2moro

[1day]

You're lucky to be blessed with a strong grip. But different strokes for different folks, I dont use straps on anything other than deads and shrugs :shrug:

yea i dont need them on rows or pulldowns i just feel it working the back more, and im a sparky by trade so turning screwdrivers and twisting wires all day is bound to have improved my grip strength

man i use straps for my whole back workout and shrugs etc, ive been told that it better to use them so u can focus on the burn only in areas you intend to work and so no other part burns out be4 your targeted areas :shifty: works for me anyways

my diet today

A whole 1000 calories less than a few weeks ago and still I'm at 100kg and have been for the last 3 weeks with a similar diet. I'm a bit confused as to how I'm holding out at 100kg even with 1000cals less a day.

When I was eating 4000 cals a day I was fairly active whilst at work whereas nowadays I'm pretty sedentary being a student.

Add 1 scoop of protein which brings totals to:

Cals - 2938.9

Pro - 322.2

Carbs + Fat - Negligible

Felt REAL hungry after steak so downed one

My Diet Tuesday 16 - 03 - 09

[soundsgood]

Couple of idea's......

Drop the carbs after your post workout meal (no bread, potato, kumara, oats)

Perhaps drop the Syn tec creatine, might be making you hold to much water? I find Power caps are good alternative.

Ditch the truemass (do you really need all those carbs?)

Whats your cardio like (type, duration, intensity)

You can't always see changes immediately on the scales, do you look any more cut?

[Luigi]

hey yea were those pics at :protest:

Thanks for the input. Will drop the carbs. Creatine for another 2-3 weeks, what are power caps???. I have half a serving of truemass just when i cant have proper food during classes but might ditch it and make so some other kind of meal replacement.

Yet to get into cardio, but do low intensity for a max of 30mins a time at night

hey yea were those pics at :protest:

i'll try to post some up soon, dont get hopes up too much tho
