(Week-15: Friday)
Weighed in at 196 lb.
And put up the weight I set out to do – 405/315/500 today!
Some of the reps were a little sloppy I know, and I will continue to work on form, but I am very happy with these gains –- I wanted 405/315/495 by the end of 16 weeks of The Texas Method and I got more than that in 15 while eating at maintenance, dropping a little bodyweight, and improving body comp.
I am looking forward to the coming cruise and doing some bodybuilder split hypertrophy training for a little bit to let things recover and heal up before I hit another strength phase.
Video of week-15 PRs up for a short time for you guys I trust then I take it down from youtube tomorrow @Seven Dog @jaymaximus @Mr.B66 @Wunderpus @lightspan @bickel29 @Melly Mel from hell @Trapmonster @Nutpuncher @ruckin @ROB581211 @Perrin Aybara
