Strive For Moreee

This week is a deload for me guys. May take next week as well as a deload. I’ve always done nothing but hypertrophy focused programs for the duration of my time lifting. I think during this long cruise I’m going to look into running a strength program. Still be able to pack on some size but ultimately I want to get strong. I believe strength and size go hand in hand and I also believe it will create some foreign stress for me during the cruise and come blast time 6 months from now I’ll be in a good position.
Sounds like an awesome plan. It might be difficult to add size if your doing a lot of cardio with reduced cals and being off blast, but that’s ok! Nothing wrong with improving cardio and getting stronger.
It will make your next blast so much better. My five month cruise is almost over. I am getting my life dialed in and all my ducks in a row before I blast off!
Thinking about running creeping death.
Not sure yet.

Not planning on doing much cardio at all besides sex and work hahaha. I’m going to still keep my calories high. Not as high as on cycle but still high enough to grow and maintain as much as I can. I’ve always been so damn worried about being lean it’s held me back from actually growing. So. Fuck abs. I mean I’m not gonna just go get fat and eat ice cream and pizza. But it’s going to be a bit loose and I’m gonna lift heavy and in 6 months see where I’m at and go from there man. Creeping Death is an awesome program. I have pretty much all of them so whatever you decide to run shoot me a pm.

I don’t know why I thought you said cardio. Anyway deloading now and focusing on strength training will be smart move after those clean gains you made on blast. Lol, for real I had ice cream and pizza yesterday.
I will let you know about the program, thanks for the offer.
 
UPDATE

Been on a deload this while week only training at about 70%. Didn’t track any workouts either. But what the week looked like was:

Monday- Push
Tuesday- Pull
Wednesday- Legs
OFF
Friday- Upper Body
OFF
OFF

tomorrow I’m going to start either P.H.U.L or PHAT Program again. Both have focus in power building. Only difference of the two is the PHUL seems like a lot less volume and only 4 workouts per week instead of 5 with the PHAT Program.

So is this PHUL you are running now? Looking forward to see it play out. After all the meadows programs and now back to a strength focus the results should be good

Yeah been missing PHAT, glad you turned me on to it many months ago. I am gonna keep running my own renaissance periodozation program for a while longer. Thinking PHAT again or try Gamma Bomb, more than likely PHAT.

My kinda work out! Im sure you know as well as I do. Huge component of strength training and improving strength is the nervous system component. Barbell movements deliver in this area more than anything.

It was a good change of pace! I had fun completing this workout. Can’t wait to get my numbers back up
 
OFF DAY

so update guys this is week one of the PHAT Program and 2 weeks into my cruise dose of 200mg/wk. I must say my whole body is a bit sore from the power days. Which is good means I gave myself a good shock. Was a bit disappointed in my strength though. But the numbers will continue to climb. Staying in a surplus of calories and still trying to do my best to grow along the way and get STRONG!
 
damn still good to see you going on this log. I went on a cruise and fell off a bit due to other things in life but keep at it bro

Workout went well today. Tomorrow will be another off day and then Monday will be back to upper body power. I was supposed to go lower body hypertrophy yesterday but it wasn’t happening. Legs were still a little bit sore and with work I can smash my legs so. Will try for both leg days this coming week. S

Strength felt good today. This has been the first day with a big focus on an “arm day” that I have had in months. Definitely felt good to put some focus and volume into them.

Solid workout today. Missed this program honestly it’s a lot of fun to move some heavier weight. I think my physique has lacked a lot from not training as heavy as I have the capability to. I’m looking forward to seeing what numbers I can put up in the next few months. Going to get some 1RM this week on a few lifts to be able to work off of.
