NPP Cycle

[Gbro]

Any progress pics? And I'm not talking about squat booty....

I'll be honest, I didnt' care for the NPP. I prefered Primo much better. Everyone's different tho!

Week 2. I do feel stronger. Noticed a good shoulder pump yesterday after benching. Definitely holding water. It was manageable up until the weekend when we went out of town and ate out every meal. My weight belt had to go to a bigger notch. The bloat is coming down slowly this week as I get back into the routine. Looking forward to more strength!

I won't lie I'm jealous of your vascularity

In between family visits and holidays this may inadvertently turn into a mini bulk. I'll get some pics this week. Legs have def picked up some size. Shoulders too maybe. I do feel good that the extra food is aiding in some muscle growth. The water and fat gain are mentally tough. But this is a strength cycle so I'm working through it.

Here's me now. I feel like someone's watching me.

I'm fairly certain your ass is being stared at. Your dog and I would get along well!

 

[Gbro]

You look great. Nice vascularity and definition.

If im not mistataken that would crush the 57kg master 2a USAPL records in both squat and bench. Did I read that right you squat more than deadlift?

She should lead the National rankings in the M2's at 114 in both squat and bench after her May meet. Her squat form is spot on, deadlift form is catching up to the squat form and I wouldn't be surprised if she pulls as much as she squats on meet day.

 

[pitbull]

that is so bad ass, when her deadlift catches up it will be an insane total. From my little experience with woman there deadlift progresses quickly. she better make room on the trophy shelves

Knee vein. What a perfect waste of vascularity....

Ha! Yes thanks! My squat max is 290 right now and pull 265. I'm trying to get out of my head for DLs.

Wasn't your max pull less than six months ago 245 with straps? and now you have pulled 265 without straps. Nothing to get out of your head with that kind of improvement.

Thank you MP. Your encouragement means more than you know! Appreciate it!

Thank you MP. Your encouragement means more than you know! Appreciate it!

You have dedicated yourself to continuing to improve and are busting your ass to do it. You have people pulling you in a lot of different directions with advice but only because we all see how much ability you have.

The reality is with your talent and hard work you are going to succeed and there are a lot of different ways to skin the cat.

So I'm trying to stand back, watch, offer encouragement where I can and keep my mouth shut unless asked because I know you are going to continue to improve and put up awesome numbers no matter what!

I'm full AF but at least my friend came back.
