Thanks Evan! Cardio definitely has made me feel a lot better/healthier. Cured up a lot of cardiovascular problems I was starting to get, and that's only after 3 sessions so far.

2x15 calves to failure and 10 minute mile last night.

Just weighed in at barely 200. Not sure if I"m happy or not about that, but it seems the cardio is making it a lot harder to maintain my weight. Plus the food in the dining commons is getting really old, it's always the same shit. So that definitely contributes as well. Could be a reason why my bench is sucking. But I do look a lot leaner.

Ok workout today. Not feeling particularly strong but my diet always goes to shit when I'm home because my parents barely cook, and I'm no longer in the habit of cooking. So I weighed 203 today. Interestingly I don't feel like I"m leaning out too much but my gyno is going down A LOT. I haven't taken any particular measures to lower estrogen. I drink a lot of chamomile tea and eat a lot of broccoli but I've been doing that for 2 weeks, and actually haven't consumed either in 2 days. Maybe the lowered estrogen from those 2 weeks has finally taken effect though. Or it could be the cardio. I've had gyno for the last 2 years, ever since I first started drinking a lot of milk to bulk up when I first got into powerlifting, so it's nice that it's finally going away. On the flip side though, my chest muscles look a lot smaller because there's less fat over them bulking them up, but their shape is more aesthetic. Either way, good stuff, might do 1 legged squats today, probably not though because I'm gonna try to squat on Monday if I can find a gym. If not I"ll do 1 legged squats and flat ground sprints on monday. Probably going to do a mile run tonight. I"m just worried about doing too much cardio because I'm not going to be able to get a lot of calories these next 3 weeks that I'm home.

Ran a mile today. Don't know how long it took because I was out in nature but I passed up another jogger so I probably wasn't going too slow. Hopefully I'll get a chance to lift tomorrow. I have a friend I'm hanging out with today who's been kind of flakey recently, hopefully unintentionally, but if I can catch him I'll probably be able to train with him in his garage tomorrow, hit some OHP, light squats (deload week but maybe a few singles at 300 just so I don't atrophy), maybe some 1 legged squats/shrugs/upright rows, and pull ups. I"ll probably be training strongman on Wednesday so I shouldn't need to do deadlifts.

How tall r u btw? 200 is a solid weight spending on height

Back to powerlifting today. I didn't wanna go too heavy so I wanted to go for a reps max with 3 plates on squats. I'll do a real 1rm in 2 weeks, doing a deadlift variant next monday.

-Low Bar Back Squats: 5xbar, 5x135, 4x185, 3x225, 2x275, 5x315
-Speed Deficit Band Deadlifts (62 lb band, standing on bumper plate 45s): 5x135, 5x185, 3x3x235

Rest of the workout kinda got sabotaged by people talking to me, managed to do a few sets of glute ham raises and a set of reverse hypers, but I ran out of time (I work out in my school gym during a period so I only have about 1 hour to do my workout, less if I get there late.)

No big deal, speed benching tomorrow.

So I hope you guys enjoy reading my log, first time logging on a website, I guess it'd be a good idea to post my stats.

ASL: 17, Male, California
Height: 5'11
Weight: 181
BF %: Around 12% (conservative estimate, abs, obliques, adonis belt, quads, etc visible) Hard to guess, my back is always well defined even if I'm in a heavy bulk and have no ab definition. But I'm at most 12 or 13% right now, just finished a cut.

I'll post other stats by request.

Here are the stats from his first page. He's put on about 20#s. Pretty damn good.

Thanks guys! Yeah I was 5'11. I used to be 6' back when I was 14 or 15 and weighed 150 lbs, never having lifted, but all the squats and bodyweight gain plus scoliosis has me at 5'10.5 now. Maybe I'll go see a chiropractor one day and get back to 6'.

Small session today, 4x10 then 1x15 alternating on each leg 1 legged squats. Short rest periods but not so short that it was like a giant superset. 3x15 strict incline push ups supersetted with slow rear delt flyes with 4 lbs. Then 2x8 and 1x10 chin ups. Strongman training on wednesday, then gym lifts on friday.
