TRAINING:
Yesterday was my recovery day. I finished the 12 week John Meadow's program I was running. Made decent progress but it's time to change from these high frequency training blocks back to something a bit different. I'll be starting John's Gamma Bomb program tonight. I've ran this program twice before and love the gains I get, so why not run it again. The split for the first half of this 16 week program will be as follows:
Monday = Back, Abs, Calves
Tuesday = Chest and Shoulders
Wednesday = Legs
Thursday = Biceps, Triceps, Abs, Calves
Friday = Recovery day
Saturday = Chest, Back, Shoulders
Sunday = Recovery day
just read bad 5 pages bro lol come on get it over 400 grams soooooooo CLOSEDIET:
Starting Gamma Bomb tonight with a big Back session. Here's my macros and foods to fuel me up!

thats smart broTRAINING:
After a hard 12 week push and coming off of a 4 week high frequency back training block, it was a little ambitious of me to think I should jump straight into another program. After some consideration and listening to my body, I've decided it is best to take a deload week. Back to regular scheduled programming next Monday, but this week I'm taking it easy and prioritizing my overall recovery so I can put my max effort into the next push.
Sounds like a plan! Thanks for the advicethats smart bro
on the deload week cut volume by 50% but keep protein high and cut carbs by 30%, tighten up a bit @OceanView
also how much cardio you doing now bro?Sounds like a plan! Thanks for the advice![]()

I enjoy jasmine, it works well for me.you like jasmine rice bro? I found brown rice better GI levels for growth is that possible for your diet or you have time issues?
incline db press can we start with 15 reps and drop to 6 in future?
stick to jasmine if you good with it broI enjoy jasmine, it works well for me.
Incline DB I was doing sets of 10ish and on BB was the sets of 6. I'm following a set program from John Meadow's, I ran it before and found I got good gains so ideally I'd like to stick to the program and run it through again.
I've got about 8 kilos of jasmine to work through lol once that's gone or close to gone I'll add in the brown and make the switch lol too much to go to waste right now.stick to jasmine if you good with it brobut how about 30/70 brown/jasmine that cool or you want to go solo?
I would still add a lighter set, you got different genetics then john meadows, hes legit but legit for guys who are close to his genetic build brotha you follow? @OceanView
thats cool with me broI've got about 8 kilos of jasmine to work through lol once that's gone or close to gone I'll add in the brown and make the switch lol too much to go to waste right now.
And that's a very fair point. What if I rotated, one week 6-8 reps for incline BB, then the next week 12-15 incline BB? Would that work?

Your weight is moving perfect, that's ALL muscle mass based on how you eat, lean gains like crazy, 10lbs of lean mass in such a short period is amazing, you're doing great.
As long as the overall trend is heading up then we are goldenA nice update on the weight changes it's really normal for it to vary up and down like that
