lol if it wasn't for you two I wouldn't be rethinking myself. EM, it's not so much of a time limit, it's just the fact that I'm really anxious to cut. I don't know what I'm going to do yet. The original plan does seem like it would be ideal..

the more muscle you have the better you will look at high bf% i know what you mean thoguh I would LOVE to be 12% bf but the way I see it is its gonna take me months to get down to that and thats months of no muscle gains and less strength gains, and iv gotta get to the point where im happy with my muscle mass first, so that is my main aim right now, Im thinking of bulking straight for the next year actually and just putting up with the BF, afterall with some extra muscle it wont look as bad...

well i talk about wanting to be leaner but i just ate like 5 choclate brownies and some chocolate biscuits LOL

lol I want some brownies now. EM, you remind me of myself.. I started posting on this board when I was 15, everybody told me that I shouldn't worry about getting lean then because at my age my hormones were like roids and I would benefit from bulking. Well..I took the advice and loved the results. Then I stopped gaining weight and did everything I could to continue the progress which was a mistake lol. I eventually reached 248 and still felt really confident about myself. Now that I think back, I was pretty damn fat...hahaha

Moral of story: gaining fat with muscle doesn't look bad, but don't blow that shit out of proportion lol.

Comments: Found my 3rm for press and deadlift lol. There is no way in hell I could lift 5 more pounds in either of the lifts. I kinda predicted this though because of how the squats felt..245 was heavier than usual. Well I still have a friday workout then I'm switching to the 5x1 starting next week . I'm wondering if I should start the 5x1 with my 3 rep maxes...

Comments: Nice fucking tits. Everything was easier than Monday. I'm wondering if I could get out another week on the 5x3...The Wednesday workout is the only thing that scares me lol.

why not just change to 5x1 now there no reason why you HAVE to do 5x3 until you cant any longer, once you can see yourself stalling swap because when you fail its harder on the CNS and also mentally you know you failed...

The only thing I'm sure I'll stall on next week is press. Other than that I'm pretty sure I can add at least 5lbs to everything. I'll see how I feel next workout day.

Comments: Decided to stick to 5x3 until I stall on the majority of my lifts. I think it is a good decision too because today felt easier than last week . I had one more rep in me on squats and bench. Rows are just a bitch, but they keep going up anyway. I was also talking to this guy on the football team today about his deadlifting because he was doing sets of 500x10 lol.

good shit man!!! you ever think of switching up rows for cleans or just adding cleans anyway?
