that ab circut crippled me today. very sore, i woke up in a sweat in the middle of the night thinking i had some sort of internal bleeding.. nope.. just doms i guess.
today
diet: low day
training: rest day
40mins of low intensity cardio
Still right around that 212-214lbs mark which is on pace. I think this is the leanest ive ever been my entire life (not saying a whole lot.. LOL).
Diet is going good, can't recall that last time i had a cheat meal, im guessing 5 or 6 weeks now.
shoulders / arms feeling good right now. really looking foward to the bench work tomorrow.

are you going to get a smaller suit, or is it big enough where the briefs will make it fit.
Plus, remember, you can pig out on a 24 hr weigh in. If you just cut water for the last few pounds to get to 198, you will be able to majorly bloat.

im looking for a size 48 pro squatter.. havn't found one yet and dont want to buy it new. I think the 50 inch suit that i have now will be ok with the breifs.
if I find one, great, the metal squat suits dont take much to get used to.
yeah, i agree with the 24 hour weigh in. But, seeing as this is only my second meet, i dont want to be cutting huge amounts of weight. i think 10lbs will be easy enough. Want to be the weight im at now at least on meet day.. so that may make my gear a little tighter.

the suit is a really good one, ive been happy with all the metal gear ive ever gotten, unfortunatley its not quite made for my sizing and they dont do custom work. I may get an ace suit in the next while here (after the comp most likely) and get it altered to fit me perfect.

Pendlay dude.
Pendlay.
Add some weight to those tate presses. You should be lifting 80s for 5.
Make it happen!
