Basically, restricted calories and over training is spinning your wheels and probably making you way more prone to injury. I'm more guilty of this than anyone. Plus, binge eating when not on a diet.

Ideally, pegging maintenance or slightly below with good training would create the most transformation.

Anybody want to do a Murph challenge (no vest)? Train between now and Memorial Day and record your time then.

This is pretty spot on…

What is an Arnold press?

200-300 deficit at most.

At my peak I think I was aiming for 3500-3600? Something like that. It was really difficult for me to eat that much even training like I was. I haven’t tracked calories at all for several years. Haven’t decided when I want to add that back in. I think I’m just going to get my legs back under me for the next several months just training, see where my weight/body comp is at that point and then decide. It took until I was 8 weeks post baby to actually meal prep again.

^You're gonna love having that reverse hyper. we have the same one and it's one of my favorite lifts in the gym.

*** googles ‘Reverse Hyper’ ***

Cool… my trainer had me doing these in the leg room and I did more than what she expected of me. That, hack squats, lunges and planking all added to the weekly.

Planking, light/high rep lateral raises, triceps warmers daily.

You start crushing legs and that bf will drop for sure.

That and my 20-25 min mandatory stairmill post lift.

It’s happening.

Wife is programmed for that. It’s brutal. She’s dancing while she does it. The trainers in the gym are like how does she have that kind of energy AFTER a workout. I’m like try living with it.

The reverse hyper is so clutch. Before I was cleared to return to lifting I just used it as traction for the lower back/hip pain I had post-baby and it was fantastic.

Shipping was slow as hell, but we just got the Ritfit leg press/hack squat and leg extension/hamstring curl machines while I was on leave. Both are sturdy and really smooth (and cheaper than Rogue, Titan, etc.) for anyone in the market.

Try single legs on that hype for a real burn. Shesh.

I have been wearing out for weekly meal prep/snacks. I use 93 lean beef to cut the cals, and you could probably skip the cheese to further cut.
