Chef's kiss ass always!
Smashed it bro! love it.
Thanks mate. Still trialling a bit more volume (in terms of more sets closer to the top weight). Coming from the low volume Dorian Yates style it feels tough but might be worth it for growth. Don't think I'll ever go back to straight sets though. One thing I am interested in trying is working up to say a 6-8 rep set then doing one back off of 10-12 say. Is that similar to what you do?Smashed it bro! love it.
Incline treadmill keeping it consistent bro,love this on both ends respect
Good rhythm and consistent weight
Getting after it brother
Bro your food is ON!!!

Weight has dropped a bit in the last week ago and maybe feeling a bit flat so figured it was a good time for a treat meal. Was good to not have to hold back on the sauce etc. And being Halloween I figured a few chocs is ok.
Thanks mate. I make sure I do the stretching stuff everyday. Makes a big difference for me.

for sure
@waggat there's nothing better than a nice burger. Did you grill them or are they cooked in the pan?
Hey mate, yeah just in the pan.
He's Aussie bro, had to throw it on the barbie right @waggat lol
Waggat taught me how dumb that line is cuz they call shrimp prawns down there. Paul Hogan lied to all of us!!!
Yeah
.But a lot of people do have small BBQ's that they use for cooking most of their meals. I haven't got a BBQ at all at the moment.... Not very Aussie of me. Just cooking everything in the pan or oven currently.
Throw another prawn on the pan just doesn't sound the same lolYeah

Great outlook bro
Love this
The whole 'refeed' thing does all too often feel like BroScience.
However, if you must, be sure just to eat more healthy food.
He has to cook up a croc next
Profile is nice meat
*crocodile
Nothing better than a fresh burger cooked at home.it looks really good, man. Hopefully we see more food like this. It's making me hungry. @waggat
If you're going to eat chocolate, I suggest plain chocolate. @waggat You don't want to take any that has any type of sugar added to it.
@waggat You won't go wrong with a homemade burger like that. Just be careful adding the bread to it. There's some much better bread options out there and just make sure you check the ingredients. Stay away from the refined flours and the preservatives.
Bro. That's definitely a good looking meal right there. The burgers look fantastic. I'm sure it tastes good! @waggat
Yeah it definitely hit the spot hey. Not something I have all the time though.
Yeah usually I just avoid altogether.
Agree. I wouldn't normally eat bread like this.
Croc isn't very nice lol, you can get Croc meat pies here in Australia as well as some good Kangaroo meat pies
@waggat burger looks bomb!

Some people eat gators and snakes where I’m atCroc isn't very nice lol, you can get Croc meat pies here in Australia as well as some good Kangaroo meat pies
View attachment 136581
Haven’t tried either yet
Solid leg day my guy
You are on fire
Next time on calves try
30 x 20 reps
40 x 20 reps
60 x 20 reps its an approach mobster got me onto,absolute burner bro
you can always swap the bread for lettuce too
Not all bread is created equal. There are some decent ones out there. You just have to look for them.
I'm game. I used to hammer calves when I firstly started training. Is the weight based on the final set requiring rest/pause to grind the 20 reps?Solid leg day my guy
You are on fire
Next time on calves try
30 x 20 reps
40 x 20 reps
60 x 20 reps its an approach mobster got me onto,absolute burner bro
It may be bro
I dunno if used to do more sets but only to 10 reps
I guess its like cutting out the easier sets and just aniolation of 3 work sets
Bro ur def the evo king of food presentation
Gator is delicious. It's like a better version of chicken breast
Wow you really got they skin perfect!
Thanks mate.BRO!!!!
Ur killing me with these feeds
Daomn u can cook
I used to tell my mate that my oven was stuffed and that's why I couldn't get the crackling to work. He said that it's essential to dry the skin then leave it in the fridge at least overnight. That seems to have been the trick to get it to work.
Yeah I reckon it about the best I've done so far. The whole thing was just right.

OMG how did you get the skin looking so crispy?
@waggat @Yuri @Grumpy take note
@HarleyGuy @vanlife_gymbum @toddthelineman @Allupfromhere @Pigsy @s.gentz
That's a great tip. I'm gonna pass that one on to my wife. Hers never comes out lookn that good. Looks right outta a Chinese restaurant
From the recipe I follow, the main points are:OMG how did you get the skin looking so crispy?
@Yuri @Grumpy take note
@HarleyGuy @vanlife_gymbum @toddthelineman @Allupfromhere @Pigsy @s.gentz
- Pork type - they say shoulder or belly are good, loin is the worst
- Dry skin with paper towel
- Leave in fridge uncovered for at least 12 hours
- A little oil and a good amount of salt
- Use aluminium chocked underneath to make the top as flat as possible
- (For pork shoulder) Slow cook for a few hours to start (170 deg Celcius) then 30 min on full (250 deg Celcius) at the end
That is pro level crackling, like straight up asian level ahaha. @waggat starting to take the lead here

it certainly looks good. the problem is i love gators a lot and i don't want to eat animals i love lol
Yea thats a problem for me too. I can't even kill a fish haha.
You could look at it that alligators are overpopulating Florida and you're helping control the population.
my views are that humans are overpopulating. which is causing these issues. but thats a whole nother thing
That's a fact. Even when population growth slows they bring more people in too lol. There's no avoiding it.
yeah trust me as a fisherman its becoming a joke
@waggat Wow. You put together some really good meals. Some of your food pictures lately have been really fantastic. You're doing a great job there.
Bros. This looking fantastic. That's a good pork roast. You gotta teach us how to make that. It look really good in the picture. @waggat
The truth is very few people even use their ovens. @waggat I heard a long time ago the only reason people have ovens in their house is for Thanksgiving to cook turkeys in America. But the truth is that they're so big that they're just a waste of electricity for most people.
I think that's why air fryers are so popular now.
@waggat Good job posting up the recipe. Seems pretty easy to do. I'm just not big on pork, but this might work well on a big piece of turkey.
Crackling looks great!
We don't eat a lot of turkey over here. Don't you have to be careful when cooking so it doesn't dry out?
nice recipe layout. i know a lot of people who are lurkers on here who just read the logs to pick up secret recipes like this. so this is a huge help @waggat
humans have always done a good job of killing each other throughout history so no need. and with fertility rates plunging there is hope for a future. plus we are past due for a really bad virus to wipe out a % of the population
yes they use up way less electricity obviously.
no clue on that lol. i don't cook those. my ex wife used to cook a good one on thanksgiving before she died
Well your spot on here brother, humans been destroying shit and themselves for years and are to ignorant to see the bigger picture. However there are good people still with good intentions and that give a little hope to most still. Hard thing is most people follow the majority and not what they feel is right. Convenience is much easier then competition and conflict so unfortunately majority has the bigger influence of where we are headed..
Brother are you a chef
@waggat nice refeed man got some good food in ya
They're supposed to be like pork. We can used @waggat recipe for some crispy skin lol
Very very careful. 5 minutes too long in the oven and it can be ruined. You really gotta watch the temp carefully cuz dry turkey is terrible.
It helps if you get a fresh bird too. The frozen ones tend to dry out easier.
It was pretty popular in your country back in the day from what I remember. Seems a lot of island nations like to eat eachother lolWell you know, history shows us that it has happened before
yep i think 90% of people out there are genuinely good people. its the tiny % that screw it up for the rest of us. and more people are sheep. like the people who think its okay to pollute or destroy natural habitats to build golf courses SMH
Or maybe we taste really really good hahaHahaha times were tight brother

@waggat food is looking incredible!
Pasta is the classic carb up king bro. No getting around that. I'm so sick of pasta from my day is playing competitive sports cuz it was all we would eat. This looks like pasta I would definitely eat though! Looks delicious
Yeah im hearing ya brother can be tricky trying to manage the time in the gym as efficiently as possible but there is always a way if you want it bro.
See how the 6 day split rolls for a few weeks and re adjust if needed.
I could live of pasta bro lol
Workout yesterday.
Was a good one but I was a bit annoyed that the second time I wanted to incorporate the hack squats it was taken. Did the hammer strength V squat instead. Definitely not as good as the normal hack squat.
For calves I tried to implement what I think @SPOONMAN366 has been doing with 20 rep sets. Went pretty well, couldn't quite get 20 on the last set. I used weights that meant I did the following: first set full 20 in one go, second set a bit of rest/pause for the last 5 and final set a bit of rest pause for the final 10.

Is there a a pendulum squat at your gym? You might find that you like that better than both
Unfortunately not. Looks like that would be good. I might even go back to front squats. They used to be my go to.
You turning Asian on us bro? Using all these Chinese cooking techniques and dishes. Lookn very authentic! You are by far and away the best chef here no question.
We should have a Top Chef banner just for you bro!
