For months. This is all health. I had a little bit of a setback with my depression but I'm back and now I'm going to start my 5x5 routine tomorrow. 5'11" 150lbs love u guys 4 this elf health thread

Repped 225 6x on the bench. In total I did 135 10x, 155 10x, 175 10x, 185 10x, 205 8x, 225 6x and a cooldown set of 135 10x at the end. Did decline as well but was pretty exhausted, plus incline dumbbell press and a bunch of cables and the seated chest press machine

Not as cut as mead for sure but I like having the competition and motivation. GAINs

Nice man. Something different I've been doing is maxing out, then going in reverse for as many reps as I can do until my muscles are completely drained. On my last back/shoulder day I did pullups until muscle failure between most of the sets of my regular routine. I felt that one the next day.

I ate 8oz of ground Turkey and 1/2 cup of lettuce per meal for 2 years straight.

Adding mustard was a delicacy.

Sugar gave me orgasms.

I was ripped though.

Gawd that's fucking gross. I'd rather do a few pushups instead.

Can't eat ground turkey to this day.

Nope, I turn manic from this stuff

So u would be manic after I fucked u into unconciousness?

Anyway, I never ate very much ground turkey, and I hate it. It didn't take me years of masochism and pounding it down my throat.
