If I had to pick one I would say its more important to eat healthy foods but if you're avoiding unhealthy foods then aren't you essentially eating healthy foods by default.

**** having to wait to use a machine at 9pm and their shitty parking.

I can't bench without it now. My shoulders have been crap for a while now.

Post some pics of your home setup when your done. Best decision I ever made was building a basement gym once we started having kids. I still have a golds membership since its across from my office, but only go maybe 5-6 days a month. rest is in the dungeion.

I broke my arm and didn't lift for like a year. Then I started lifting again and it took me like 2-years to get back to where I was but my previous figure took me like 8-years to get.

So yeah it is a reality but you still have to be patient. But keep lifting and it should come back relatively quickly.

Yeah, I've been consistent with my program/nutrition and its still coming back fast. Have way too much fat on me though. I'm kinda regretting not cutting further. I would've been damn skinny. Thinking about stopping this bulk a little short at the end of May or so and cutting. I'd like to get on a normal summer cut, winter bulk schedule too. I'm gonna be doing everything backwards if I stick with my original plan.

Problem is I have slightly funny measurements. I have a big wingspan for my height plus a broad chest/shoulders and not enough muscle in my core. I look kinda disproportionate without a decent amount of muscle in my midsection. Hoping that fills out fairly quickly. Seems to be moving along a little more slowly than the rest of me.

A pussy pad for benching now huh?!!?

:D

Lew im taking 3 days off from working out how will this ruin my gains with a 2k cal daily intake?

Really? It won't do shit.

I feel lazy as **** if i go more than 2 days without working out. Its a mentality ive been able to instill the past few years. I wont allow myself to be fat as **** ever again!

It won't. I'll sometimes take 1-2 weeks off at a time.

I'm not fat.

It's just residual guilt from being a lazy fat ****.

I've been moving house the last two weeks and lifting tons of heavy shit and have pretty much skipped 2/3 of my usual weekly lifting sessions.

As long as your diet is on point you're not going to gain any weight or lose muscle.

How's married life so far, bud?

Bye bye gainz

my woman made me some bomb ass chicken tortilla soup and no one here will ever see it

Soup?

She's trying to keep you skinny and weak.

Sad.
