Clocked in at 170 this morning. That's 25 pounds down since Feb 6th. Goal is 150.

If you don't mind me asking, are you a woman or a man? 150 as a goal for a man would be something.

I've been digging doing only kettlebells as a break. It hits different. Double kettlebell front squats with embarrassingly low weights absolutely destroy my core. The What The Hell Effect may be real.

Water weight.

Sadly, I think Lobster Rolls, fish tacos, Bourbon and beach beers won't just be water weight haha. I'm sure I'll drop a few pretty quick and that some of it is water weight.

5 foot 8 male. On a BMI scale. 163 is the highest I could be in the normal weight category. Before crossing into ''overweight'' 150 is a nice middle ground.

Also Prime Day is tomorrow. You can usually find some real good deals on protein products, beverages, supplements and snacks in general. I'll make sure to share what I find.

Anyone still drinking bulletproof coffee?

AKA Disaster Pants Coffee.

Tried that shit twice and threw it all away. Not only was it like Hank described, the mct oil got everywhere. My current coffee process is too spot on to add a bunch of shit in.

Man, after a hellacious 12 weeks of cutting... tough getting back in the saddle. I'm not FAnth, or anything, but my motivation to dial in the diet to 95% is LOW. Currently cruising at about 80%.

Amazon Prime day contiues to get weaker and weaker.

20-serving Dymatize Hydrolized protein for roughly $23... thats ok, i guess.
About 20% off various beef jerky products.

Not seeing much else. 90% of this is just knockoff brands from China and Amazon selling their own shit.

OOo this is kind of a good deal. I know BCAA's are a mixed bag, but I did see some new research is saying they might be more beneficial than we thought after all. Plus, sometimes I kind of just like the flavor, added energy, etc. Anyone familiar with this brand? Many of the flavors are ~$12 for 30 servers.. Hard to beat that pricing.

20% off Thorne Creatine is pretty groovy.

 

[LineSkiCat14]

I'm realizing that the best way to do it, is to search for the brands you want. Amazon seems to be pushing most of the same knock off shit to the top. For instance Redcon and LVL are bith doing pretty good discounts, but you'd never see them on any listing.

What do you guys know about berberine? I'm reading that it's a natural substitute for Ozempic and Dr. Berg is all in on it.

 

[anthonys735]

Picked up a sweet adjustable bench, plyo box, some kettle bells in weights for the 9yo, and a wedge for RDL/Squats.

Those of you on the glp1 shots, it seems like the consensus is to be using amino supplements, because with the restricted diet you're not getting enough. Most everyone else gets plenty of AAs by just eating enough protein.
