Calories of particular foods is irrelevant. What matters is how much you take in, and the kind of food you take in.

Had a killer workout today, after an extra day of rest. Squats, bench press, pullups, then even a working deadlift set. All fasted

All 5x5 except squats, did a couple sets of 4 at the end, and finished off with a 3

:fuckyea:

lol recognized Studeo55's ugly orange paint in my video huh, yup, my buddy works at EA so he gave me his buddy pass. No monthly gym fees :fuckyea:

First meal of the day was post workout at 6:30pm (slept in today)... had a 30g whey shake right after workout, yoshinoya after workout (43g protein, 35g fat, probably ate about 60g worth of rice)

Had 1 lbs of lean pork chops for dinner, 88g protein, 37g fat.. added asparagus and some pineapples.. so a probably a 1600-1700 cal day :sweetjesus:

IF makes it so much easier to eat what you want

BTW there's a good tip for you, when having a huge meat meal, have pineapples or papaya with it. The enzymes breaks down the meat, and helps digestion. Also a bite between pieces of meat makes it easier to get all that meat down :lol

Who else is IFing? I know some were talking about it before

That was my 1RM 2 months ago... last leg I was texting Halo and Strykn before my Squarts... (yea while I was lifting phaggots) and I managed 315 x 6 for the first set and got 4 the next set. I text Halo and Strykn to get me pumped up before big lifts haha

Berz out.

I'm trying to get into the 85kg (187lbs) weight class for nationals next April 2013. My goal is to be 190lbs for June comp and 190lb (leaner) at November comp.

I just dont find it appealing to be a strong and tubby. Whereas now I'm at 190lbs and im still squating 500, Benching 300, deadlifting 600. Im just more leaner and less tubby.

@Skinny - I'm sortof doing IF with Carbcycling stacked with EC :troll:

My buddy doing a 5 plate deadlift. Terrible form though.

This thread is making me depressed, haven't worked out in a week as I have this nagging chest cough that won't fuck off.

Enjoy lifting you bastards, I'm jealous.

That truly is horrible form, nice rocking :heckno:

I had the same problem a few weeks ago, I couldn't shake it for a solid month.

Get better soon, the pump you feel first day back will be amazing.

would u say i.f is a good way to lean out while maintaining strength?

I've thought about it....when I have time I'm trying to get some info off the leangains site.

taking it off from pins does not count
very sad, you should teach him
he also needs to learn how to squat, maybe his chicken legs will grow ok im done

SlowCutting > fast cutting

but im unaware of the text crew. :alone:

Good article on eating

Question Jim,

How long did it take you to achieve those numbers. Insane....

I'm at the same weight, but half of what you lift Lol. (I could cut some weight lolllllll)

damn i took 8 days off, during those days i ate very low calories and protein, 2 of which was a detox diet so i ate like 400 calories a day, overall dropped from 158 - 150lbs and strength and size dropped a lot..

flat db press 80 x 5 >> 65 x 10
dumbbell shoulder press 70 x 6 >> 60 x 5
deadlift 295 x 8 >> 275 x 3

:alone::alone::alone::alone::alone::alone::alone:

hoping to get back quick, question is does having carbs in the day help with strength in your workout or just energy levels?

IF doesn't work well with the goal of building strength, IMO. It's more of a cutting/bulking combo diet

yes i would imagine that to be true, I'm saying would it be a good way to lean out (lower body fat, weight etc like Jimzilla is doing) while not dropping your numbers for example say u bench 2 plates, after i.f could u still bench 2 plates despite ur lower bodyfat/weight? thanks

For me, I have actually increased strength in everything since starting IF, just not nearly as fast as I could be if I was eating a lot. Even though my strength is lower than it could be, I actually find that my workouts are more energetic than they were on the days would carb up before workouts.

BTW this is a surprisingly good read: 10 Stubborn Exercise Myths that Won't die

Damn, you must be huge to down that much caloleeezzz.... I want a half-nude pic from you :drool

It's not hard to take in 1500 calories in 3 hours when that's all you eat all day ;)

Stopped reading at stretching before will prevent injury is a myth

Because you already know everything?

Rippetoe also believes that stretching is a myth and even believes it makes you more susceptible to injury.
