Thanks and me too, hurts to flex it a little, not unbearable some heat and ice should be good as long as I don't aggravate it this weekend... have physio tomorrow see if he can work on it.
First time with Halo this am. I have enough for 20mg every amrap or peak day through prep, and 30mg for meet with 30mg to spare so will need to keep at 20mg for prep can run 60 at meet

Thank you

Also to comment good bye hook grip, its all mixed grip now. Feels strong, weight feels lighter and seems to be quicker of the floor. I also notice my set up much quicker now, not having to get thumbs exactly right

 

[Btcowboy]

Weight today 217.5 a pretty big jump for a week at 5lbs... pretty sure I didn't eat that much over...

Bodyweight is a crazy thing...
Last week jumped 5lbs and was 217.5 and worried about gaining too much. This week I dropped 3lbs and am 214.5 which is 2lbs heavier than 2 weeks ago, which would make the gain perfect lol and leaving me 6lbs to gain in 8 weeks which sounds perfect

Sometimes the fluctuations are pretty wild.
I'm down to 234 right now.
Was 240 last week and I've been eating like a pig (Junk) this whole time, since I only have 1 week before my cut.

Dont ask me why I'm losing weight on a junk food frenzy lol

Lol I like bulking and not worrying what number I need.... and usually do my bulks that way so I can enjoy some treats. Weird dropping weight on that lol.

Been trying hard to keep food clean, I have pretty much, and I have 1 night a week we eat out and even then try to be conscious what I order...

13 week prep and 13 lbs to gain is what I faced at the start of this. 8 weeks out and 6lbs to gain...

For me that would be really difficult
I would have to resort to unclean foods to make that happened.
My body says "Fuck you" at 240 and will only recomp, and will refuse to grow past that number.

Hope you can make the goals brother
