Update
Day 6 Deload & recovery.
Good session this morning. Still followed our Deload methodology but really tried to push the working set today 95% ramping up for next week
Definitely best day by far regards to energy and mood. I need to work on sleep & Will try to cut caffeine from lunch onwards today and see how that goes.
Hunger and appetite definitely back in full swing - will need to be mindful here as we are still thick in holiday season with plenty of temptations around. Hence will likely keep Reta in at around 3mg per week for now and slowly ramp as body adjusts to changes to intake and lifestyle after being in a deficit for so long.
Food prep always helps here - so knock a few meals off this morning which should cover lunch/dinner for next few days
Otherwise moving in right direction and recovery continues to progress well - Felt really good in gym today!

Legs have come along way with respect to definition, but definitely a weak point and lack mass to balance out the entire physique. We (coach and I) have agreed this is definitely on the priority list for build phase, so expecting some big sessions to come!! Would love to hear some advice on mass building the pins and what others have done successfully (or perhaps even things that haven’t worked!)
This wraps up this thread boys. Sunday = rest day and 14 year wedding anniversary so plenty of family time and more $$ spent on the wife!
