I've been taking in about 120g carbs the past few days. That's good for me, I'll slowly try to up it on Training days.DeadBolt said:Heya bud...how ya doin? I see you started max-ot...hope ya like it.
Your lack of strength could be from you just not doing regular bench in a while. There are a multitude of reasons why it could have gone down and yes it could have been b/c of the ckd...that sounds like muscle loss at its finest imo. How many carbs are you currently taking in?
The pressdowns are the same by me to....I can do the entire stack for like 8-10 reps but on the other side of the gym I can barely do half of it. Its odd...

Thanks Gary. I tried it back in the fall. You sent me all the info, but I only lasted about 2 weeks before getting hurt. I've changed it a bit so hopefully that won't happen this time.gwcaton said:Nice wo Rock !!! Have you done Max OT before ?
LOL I remember sending you the info but don't remember you starting it . Oh well . I'm old ! Good luck though and PLEASE be careful . LOLrock4832 said:Thanks Gary. I tried it back in the fall.

Hey Rock. Ceasing bench, lack of carbs, less overall bodyweight, and some muscle loss which is inevitable with a cut... Of course you're going to be weaker. Been down this road a few times and that's why I almost never cut now. That is the tradeoff. At least for me, I would rather be stronger with medium bodyfat, then feeling weak with low bodyfat.rock4832 said:I was really disappointed with bench. Not long ago I woulda had 225 x 6 for 3 sets no problem. 205 felt VERY heavy. Might be muscle loss or just not doing regular bench for a few weeks.
LOL, don't sweat it. Like I said, it was only like 2 weeks. Not very memorablegwcaton said:LOL I remember sending you the info but don't remember you starting it . Oh well . I'm old ! Good luck though and PLEASE be careful . LOL
Your right, just seemed I was A LOT weaker and I wasn't expecting that. I'm still "cutting" but doing it much slower nowJerseyDevil said:Hey Rock.
