Please Scroll Down to See Forums Below $.02 Crossy if you clean bulk and are going to track everything, you can stick at the 40/30/30 and just bump up the cals for a 'bulk' ... It's really not something to worry about, having the perfect ratios. With a clean bulk you can also throw in a cheat meal, same as cutting just more food...crossy said:Thanks bro, i just felt i could have done more on squat but im feeling this in certain lifts but ile stick to what it says on the Starrs excel sheet.
Bro if you dont mind im gonna need some help sorting my diet after week 9 of this. I decided to take your and a few other peoples advice and just bulk to around new year. Im after some meal plans really and best times to eat what etc during a bulk. I presume carb intake time is going to be diffrent than when cutting?
Thanks Crossy

Thanks alot
Week 8 Day 2
Ok todays workout sucked ass.
Light day on squats but tbh they felt over easy today i ate really well today probably the best i have ate in ages ( as in i ate alot more than normal). So felt really good then Military presses last set gripped the bar pushed it up realised my grip was to wide and tried to contnue like a dumb ass and failed strait away. Put it down and redone the set. Ok on to deads my favourite lift i did have 275lb in mind today for a new PR with my new straps in hand i was confident as its normally my grip screws me up. Anyways put them on last set (never used them before) could i use them? could i fuck i might aswell have been using a piece of cotton should have read how to use em first had most of it right but just couldnt get them tight on the bar. So i spat my dummy out as it put me in a bad mood. Went to lift wihout the straps at 120 and lost my grip on 3rd rep i was so pissed (even more so that i did this fairly easy last week). Reset tried again and lost grip again the water bottle went across the gym went and did my abs and fucked off home.

Nice PR bro!
If you're not used to the straps like it sounds like... it'll take some time to get used to wraping them really tight for a good fit. Practice wrapping them at home or something if you want.
You'll get it next time.
Find some chalk too
