Mind over Macros

[steak]

Leg Machine :salute: Oooh and a cheat in there too I see, noice, was it passionfruit again? :pfft:

yip...you know me and dont cheat F all but when I saw that last French Vanilla cheese cake sitting all alone in the coolest part of the chiller I knew I was not going to leave Pak N Save without it and then....shortly after I was filling the back of the station wagon with trays of eggs (as you do) and I saw a litre of chocolate milk, again all alone in the chiller, by the eggs trolley. I felt, considering my cheesecake purchase that this would be a match made in heaven too.

Sadly though when the choccy milk started coming onto my fave cheesecake I ripped its top off and skulled the lot! That put an end to that little skullduggery and once again it was just the cheesecake and me 8)

That night when cheesecake and I were alone....... :nod: mm hmmhmm it was on like donkey kong :wink: 8)

Yo steak,

123 sesame street na its kgs Laver and I'm trying to get to 130kg without building a massive gut...bit of gut is ok :wink: Want to hold that weight and build some more strenght there and then a cut. I set a 12 month goal for it and have some time to go and progress has been good. Have upped the cals this week to move the needle up a bit more as Im sitting just under 124. Started adding wheatgerm to my shakes (1/2 cup) 3 times a day and that should be another 600-700 cals a day not to mention the extra protein and goodness :nod:

when we gunna see some more pics big fella? :poked: and when are you starting your cut? :poked:

dunno a wee ways to go before I even think about a cut...bulking is where its at! cutting will be hard comapared to this foody heaven Im in now :grin: latest pics are on page 26

Great looking diet. Wish I could afford to eat like that. Can we get a ball park figure on what your food bill is per week?

Today was back...

"Today was back"..yes it was! Nice work, Cap'n

Those single rows are wicked... guess now the reason for the amazing pics becomes clear!

[Dr Squat]

Good journal Steak. Lots of good progress!! How many grams of protein do you think you are getting a day? I know it's lots!

Mate, 7 or 8 litres of water a day! I would be pissing like a race horse!

Around 550g-600gs a day

and piss...sheesh! The worst is your always on the look out for a good place to stop for one and up during the night a couple of times...this can be alright though as its no too far to stagger for a shake :pfft:

[rose]

your always on the look out for a good place to stop for one

Smart chicks map a city by it's loos 8) Lucky you can just whip it out aye, fark the worst is when you're riding, trying to find somewhere to stop and pee and it's all open farmland and course there's always a stream of cars when there were none before :roll: I gave up caring, pull over anywhere and go behind the bike. Peeing in wetsuits is one thing, bursting your bladder inside leathers is quite another and I'm not keen to test that! :pfft:

Mean cracking the 124 Sir, mean :salute:

[steak]

Thanks Le Chic 8)

working on the boat in a bit of weather...leggings, trackies, thermals, jacket...its all got come off to take a leak :shifty: by the time you get it back on its time for another

you could use a "Shewee"

but you'd want to avoid the usual pitfalls eg; pissin in the wind etc

Going slightly above the belt for a moment...today was eat, rest and grow day so all of the aforementioned criteria have been met. I have eaten, I am resting and therefore shall grow :nod:

[rose]

It's easier just to whip ya gloves off, unzip and skwat :pfft: By the time you've pulled over, there's no time to fish round for a cardboard tube! And where would I put it? Real estate is verrry limited! Tyre pressure gauge and emergency tool kit takes up all the room under the cowl and I'm sorry but I'm too cool for luggage 8)

Hey btw, did you know that squats cure cancer? Cool huh? :grin: Rest day in Le Sewer too man. It's verrry quiet. Take it easy Mister Steak I can hear you growing from here :salute:

[Kiwijuice]
