Get some sauerkraut in a glass jar in the refrigerated section and eat that cold. It helped me so much. If it’s canned or heated past 110 degrees, it kills the beneficial bacteria. But if i eat it still actively fermented, i notice a huge difference in digestion.

I couldn’t agree with you more on this. I started using sauerkraut about three months ago. Only a couple tablespoons a day with meals spread out throughout the day. Big difference. At first it was a bit rough on my stomach for a few days. But afterwards. Worth it.

Bull semen also works well to get the bowels going. Must be organic though

 

[Mac11wildcat]

Work is pissing me off today...haven’t done anything retarded with cheat meals in a while...be back in 10...

 

[Mac11wildcat]

Perks of offseason. Should result in an extra 1200 cals or so today overall. Majority of my cheat meals are just more of better tasting foods, not absolute shit. But I slum it once and a while, feels good.

Arms (was supposed to be delts too, but wasn’t feeling ready so just did laterals at the end)

1. Ez Bar Curl (bar to nose) - 5x15/15/15/15/10 @ 45/65/85/105/125

2. Close Grip Smith Machine Press (lower high on chest and tuck and fold elbows for max tricep load) - 5x15/15/15/12/8 @ 135/185/225/275/315

3. Alternating DB Curl 4x12/12/10/8 @ 35/40/45/50

4. Overhead DB French Press 3x15/15/12 @ 80/100/120

5. Tricep Cable Pulldown (across body, single hand, alternating no rest) - 3x20/15/12 @ 6/8/10 on the stack

6. Flite Plate Loaded Preacher Curl (1 arm) - 1x12 @ 25lb 1x8 forced negatives at 50lb

7. VBar Pushdowns (flared elbows, bar close to body, push down and away) - 3x15/15/12 @ 150/full stack/stack + 45plate

8. Lateral raises 5x15 @ 15/20/25/30/35

Yes, this is quite a bit of work for just arms. It’s just about the absolute extreme of volume I’ll ever do. This was preceded by a stint of much lower volume and this won’t be maintained for more than a couple weeks.

I do have one just never went yet. Good huh? May have to give er' whirl.

So you're close grip is kinda more like a California press .i do em like that too .

It's pretty good, on par with 5 guys, maybe a little better

 

[Mac11wildcat]

Kind of but without the movement down to the lower chest. I do them two ways.

This way I always do on the Smith and isn’t a “strength movement,” I’m trying to hammer the head on the back of the arm. My elbows don’t stay high like his, they drop low, but because the bar is fixed my elbows end up below my sternum and hands almost on inner shoulder.

The other way I do on a barbell with the bar much more over my lower chest. Much more of a compound strength thing.

 

[Mac11wildcat]

I promise to not make this thread dumb with unnecessary selfies, but this is a pretty decent comparison of me chasing MW (176.25) vs now. Spent the last few hrs before weigh ins in the suana, zero water, no food. Can post some dry pre-travel shots if you guys are interested. We absolutely blew my carb up and I was watery as fuck on stage.

I may have missed this, but I don’t think I saw it anywhere. What’s your current height and weight?

5’7” 203 fresh out of bed this morning.

 

[TheH0517]

5’7” 203 fresh out of bed this morning.

I wish I could have that much mass at 203:/ Being 6’1”, I feel heavy for my size (or lack thereof) compared to others at my weight. I’m after the classic look as well so I think it’s cool to have a comparison to your current condition and where the nutrition fits it. Thanks man. I’m enjoying learning from your journey.
