Tracy where ya been??? Staying pretty busy?

Aside from everything else, this is also another reason I use a different draw pin. I draw with a 21 and swap out with a 23 or 25 depending. Good post.:winkfinger:

I've used this in the past ^ and I loved every minute of it. If you see anything rocking the old BD labels, I would stay away from it.

Good article to revisit.

Unless you plan on jumping on the gear I personally wouldn't bother with it. Not for that amount of time. You will be disappointed with the results. I like running bulks and cuts for at least 12 weeks periods. A month and a half isn't enough time to solidify what little gains you would make.

That's much better than the split/routine you layed out before. One thing I always tell people is to listen to their bodies and not their egos. If you feel that on curl days you just arent responding anymore, then throw in some supplementary work after your heavy compounds. Something like light...

Just wanted to bump this thread and give huge props to OSL. Just finished this dish and it tastes great! Full of flavor! :winkfinger: The only thing I did different was use ground turkey, and I cooked the rice in a rice cooker. Everything else is near identical. I went with Italian seasonings...

:wtf:

Wow, he DID shrink. He'll get it back though.

^THIS!^ Ken's post is on point as usual. DO NOT get caught up in the "I just do alot of cardio and exercise to mitigate my crappy diet" mindset. Unless you enjoy feeling like a hamster on a wheel. :winkfinger:

Diet, and cardio. There is no escaping it.

I too have a problem with water retention. The day after this last competition I woke up 8lbs heavier no kidding! I theorize that I have somewhat of an insulin sensitivity issue, so I can kinda see where you are coming from. If your maintenance is 3000, you are going to feel like straight...
