JESUS! I hate to see you stuck. Can I offer some advice? Also, you weigh 75 kg right now, correct?

If you end up in Adelaide we can squat together

Prescribe yourself some supplements lol

Anywhere between 70 and 75, I have no idea.

Any advice would be great, although I don’t feel stuck per se, more just slowly progressing

:heart_eyes: Drop set bulgarians sound sooooo fun :face_vomiting:

“Special” supplements? :thinking:

And get me a script while ur at it wink wink

I’ll study endocrinology just for you xx

Honestly, just eat more. I know it’s not in line with your “goals” or whatever, but if you’re focusing on strength you need to eat (especially if you’re doing conditioning work to boot).

UPDATE / Explanation for absence

So I fell really sick a week ago, and have trying to get well enough to get back in the gym. Realistically, I could have gotten back to training on Wednesday, but I didn’t want to push it due to my interviews yesterday (Armidale) and tomorrow (Adelaide). Today I’ll be making the 5-6ish hour drive back to Brisbane, where I’ll hopefully be able to get in a bit of a jerk-off session before I’m out again.

I’ll be getting back from Adelaide on Sunday afternoon, so I might be able to get a conditioning session in that night, and I’ll definitely be getting to the gym on Monday.

Come next Wednesday (5/12), I’m off to India until the 23rd. Whilst I’m there, I’m hoping to alternate one day of upper-body calisthenics (push-ups, chin-ups, abs, band work) and one day conditioning stuff. For conditioning I will have to find things that could be done in my living room, since it’s my experience that the air quality in India makes it really hard to train outside.

On my return it’s going to be a bit of a shred-down with WSSB, and then I’m hopping on one of 5th Set or BBB 3-Month Challenge.

I don’t think that’s what he meant. Aussie slang is a complex creature.

Didn’t even realise the “other” meaning of that sentence :joy:

@guineapig was just thinking about you in that manner. :rainbow_flag::grinning:
