Keep this log coming!
Bro I know exactly how you feel with the jelly legs!Training for yesterday

3x95
2 working sets;
10x100kg

I feel I can push this up next week with weight though my main focus on this exercise is getting good form and depth so I tend to lean more on using a lighter weight so I can prioritise this.
Single leg press;
Working sets;
10x60kg
8x60
incorporated this exercise into this months workout routine to try and even out the strength in each leg. Definitely a different monster of an exercise than a dual leg press that’s for sure. Quite humbling haha.
Lying hamstring curl;

15x40kg
10x45
5x50
3 working sets:
11x55kg

Walking db lunges;
Working sets (each leg);
10x25kg
8x25
Could barely walk by this stage as I’ll working sets are to failure except my squats.
Just keep grinding, feel like I’m not exactly demolishing my workouts this week more so just surviving them lol.
@Allupfromhere happy to have you back with the EVO family manHey guys getting this log going again after stepping away for a while. Reason for stepping away was as I had mentioned in the beginning I had been working with a coach and I wanted to see my 12 weeks with him through exactly how he was setting it out for me. I do want to make a point and mention that all the information and advice I had received on here didn’t go unnoticed or un appreciated as I am grateful for it all. I just wanted to stick to a single plan and see it through so I can see its effectiveness to me personally and gain that knowledge moving forward, just wanted to give it a proper chance without a second influence at that stage.
Started at 101.6kg at 33%ish body fat and currently 87.4kg 12 weeks later. Unsure of bf% as I haven’t had a current scan.
Now I’m steering my own ship and using what I have currently learnt and what I will get the opportunity to learn on the forum.
Diet currently at close to 2500cal daily.

Feel good mate, plenty of energy in the gym. Weight is steadily coming down still and am still increasing daily calories slightly each week. If I reach maintenance in the next several weeks I’ll look at training in the evenings and adding fasted cardio in the mornings. Just don’t wanna play all my cards in one hand while the weight is still coming down with the current approach. Hopefully working closer to home then so I can adapt my workouts easier.
Sure have bro and I track daily to so I know where I’m at when I swap a meal over.@Allupfromhere would be nice to see the meal prep macros, have you checked? please update us man![]()
@Allupfromhere you trying to lean out still? clarify the goals mansSure have bro and I track daily to so I know where I’m at when I swap a meal over.

Really do love the early morning workouts, completely sets the tone for the rest of the day. Been doing hard long hours with bullshit travel last couple of months so early gym sessions are helping me not just physically but mentally too. I know I wouldn’t make it if I tried to work out in the evenings at the moment. I’m lucky the Mrs fully supports my effort even though her and the kids don’t see much of me during the week.
