Back on the train. I decided to refrain from weight lifting for a period of time. I was training for the half marathon I done and just didn't have any desire in the gym. I did do one HST run and I'm currently weighing 166 or so. The last HST cycle wasn't with proper intent so lets see what...

Do you plan on getting bigger than 168? I always thought I'd get the abs and then keep them but I think I've realised I prefer to have a lot more flexibility in my life. Really don't want to have to miss out on social occasions etc each week just for the sake of vanity.

OK so here is the plan. I'm going to spend the next 9 days (including today) in a deficit. I want to get just below 160 and get rid of all the bloat off the last couple of weeks. Depending on how I feel I might extend this another week but I highly doubt it. After that I'm going straight into a...

Mick, yes I have been lifting during this period, but not consistently. My muscle are considerably smaller than what they used to be. I used to fill out L/XL shirts and I now only just fill out a M. I'd just like to know more out of convenience than anything else. But thinking about it, I...

Thats good to hear mate. Hopefully its the same for me too

Sci, how have you found muscle growth? Has muscle memory worked well for you? I've just got the start of my journal up there. Will be starting next Monday! The early sessions of the 15's always seem so boring

OK so I used to do HST some time ago and stopped for some reason or another. As a bit background, I was 225 lbs or more at my heaviest at 5 foot 10. Quite a bit of this was fat; I'd say I was about 25-30% bodyfat or so. I dieted for my wedding and got to like 175 and then within the year was...

Hey mate. I'm in the same boat as you. Coming off the end of a cut and can't decide whether to continue until the abs are in properly or bulk as I feel so small. I'll start a progress thread tomorrow with photos and maybe you could give me your opinion? I used to do HST a while ago and had...

So, I'm at the end of the 5's now so I'm just going to continue with the same weights as my last session until I'm finished cutting Squat 115 Deads 120 Bench 90 Rows 70 Military Press 52.5 Really wish I was finished with this cut as I want to add some muscle but I'm carrying too much body fat...

Squat 115 Deads 115 Bench 85 Rows 67.5 Military Press 52.5 I've been doing mobility work and stretches the last couple weeks too, gonna start with some basic Bodyweight exercises over the next couple weeks Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

As a side note, has anyone moved over to bodyweight exercises? Really want to incorporate them along side my HST cycles - not for any other reason than I think its pretty cool. Would this hinder my progress on HST?

So I'm half way through the 5's now. Squat: 105kg Rom dead: 105kg Calf raises: - didn't do as worked out from home Bench: 75kg Rows: 62.5kg Military Press: 47.5kg Not sure if I should be lifting heavier - at what point during the 5's should you be lifting heavier than the 10's? Anyways, I'm...

Man I'm getting bored of this diet already. Just wanna get in a surplus and get some proper weight on the bar Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Done my first workout on 5's today. Was pretty easy to be honest. On my phone ATM so will update lifts when on the computer. I've not eaten at all lately as I've had an operation and had no appetite. Got on the scales this morning and was 181. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Workout 5 of the 10's: Squat: 95kg Rom dead: 100kg Calf raises: 85kg Bench: 75kg Rows: 57.5kg Military Press: 42.5kg Man I feel so weak compared to where I was last year. The workout was fine, just when I look at what I was lifting back then compared to now its depressing. Wish I'd never...

Squat: 90kg Rom dead: 95kg Calf raises: 80kg Bench: 70kg Rows: 55kg Military Press: 40kg Ben, Mick is right I'm currently cutting. Another 7-8 weeks should do the trick and then I'll put myself in a nice surplus for the best part of a year. Quick question. With the right program and...

Got myself into the gym today and to be honest I over estimated myself. I managed: 2x10's - Squat: 85kg Rom dead: 80kg Calf raises: 70kg Bench: 60kg Rows: 47.5kg Military Press: 37.5kg I struggled in there today. Well I didn't struggle, I just couldn't see how I would be able to manage the...

Hi everyone, I've been a member for a while but I'm using this as a log to keep myself motivated and to ask any questions should I come stuck. I got married in the middle of the year and was in alright shape - 175lbs @ roughly 12-15% body fat. Since then I've let myself go - a mixture of...

ok so i haven't been on here for some time. training been ok for the last month, I'm happy with the progress tbh. I'm on my cycle of 5's and then I'm going to take a week off for SD. I've decided to take some of the advice here, and cut first now. I want to build some extra muscle but like...
