Sorry I haven’t posted. Was a bit busy. Below are my missing logs!
I am adding 5 lbs to every lift every week. And if I don’t because I only hit the perscribed reps I am still adding 2+ reps the next week! Still seeing great strength gains!

Thanks! I have keeping it simple with only 4 lifts a day and adding 5 lbs ish per lift on the first 2. The rest is pump work. Gotta say this has been my favorite program yet.

Had to do have to back days because of a vacation coming up. So that ends week 6 and week 7 lifts start on Tuesday (7/3)
Ok so… Instead of lifting Tuesday like planned life threw some life at me…
I am gonna do some deload work today through Monday the 16th. Maybe some body weight stuff too since I will be out of town on vacation.
Then I will start a new cycle the following week. Starting Tuesday the 17th.
Next cycle will be 2 6 week cycles with a 1 week max test between. I have 13 week until I attend a wedding. I intend to look amazing.
Plan is 3 days a week lifting (same as I have been) and 3 days a week cardio (training for a 5k) with 1 full rest day
read an article here on TN, (about january I think) two weeks deficit, then back to two weeks maintenance. Something about the body getting used to being in deficit and not burning fat that much, so going back to maintenance will get the body to use more fuel again.
Thursday day 2 of… 1 or 2 weeks getting back into the gym before starting a proper cycle.
Deadlift 6x5 worked up to 155. Stayed light.
Ohp 4x10+ 45 lbs. Hit several 12 and 15 rep sets.
Lat pull down 3x15 70 lbs
Leg curl 3x10+ 60 lbs
1 mile cardio post work out. 6%incline. Mostly walking because… I don’t cardio.
17:15. Guess I need to keep doing this because that killed me… Walk at 3 jog at 5-5.6 (only like 3 or 4 times for a min lol)
Decided on a mix between psmf and matador.
Psmf with 1 refeed and 1 free meal for 2 weeks.
2 weeks at just below maintenance.
Repeat until desired weight.
Psmf days are 800 to 1k calories.
Refeed days add 320 grams of carbs…
Free meals add 500 calories.
Yes the Matador, just found it.
The “science” behind it, seems legit.
Walking is very good for fatloss.
But walk outside and walk for about an hour or more everyday.
Good luck Cherry
7/22 woke up at 146.4 refeed day today. Added in 250 grams of carbs to my day.
Squat 5x3+ 45,65, 85x10, 95,105,115,125x3 last set 5 reps.
DB bench 25 lbs 3x15
Bent over row 65lbs 3x15+ last set 25
Hip thrust 135 3x15 last set 25
Hanging leg raises 3x15
7/23 woke up at 146.4 suprisingly I don’t weight more even after a carb up?
Today is just light cardio. Walking for about an hour.
