Less than 10. No excuses

[FoRuMbOaRdS360]

Ok so I need to keep a journal. Its not that I havent been working but im not half as motivated anymore. I always get this way, I hit about 12-14% bf and quit. I want 8% and need to stop bein a b*tch and do some work.

Ive been cutting for, well it really has been a lets see how it goes cut. Thats gonna stop. Im gonna go to a T.

Before cut:
Bench: 245x6
DL: 365x6
Squat: 285x6

As of Now:
Bench: The most ive done since I started my cut is 215x4(for my sake I do have a injured right wrist. Its to the point where I cant do curls and it hurts just touching it, So with that said I think I might be able to press 225x6)
DL: Havent done since the 365x6 but I did get 315x6 but it felt heavy
Squat:245x6, I coulda got more but my leg is also in pretty bad shape lol. Snowboarding isnt as soft as it looks.

don't just keep a journal of lifts, if you are cutting, keep a journal of meals and post your daily intake. This will help you look back and see where you could improve things.

I'm not going to comment on the lifting part, I think you already know what I think about that. And just to put it in your head, while I'm still cutting, I did 900 lb leg presses today, a PR. But I don't care about that, I care my diet was in check and I got my protien and carbs/cals in today. I'm a bodybuilder, not a PL.

Okay, yes I know I need to drop my reps and up my weight, but im coming off an injured leg and it hurt today. I just havent done legs in 3-4 weeks so I pushed myself through one.

I agree. Cutting doesn't have as much to do with the training as much as it does what you're putting into your body... Let's see some food intake.
