    🦵 Update No.4 🦵

    So far the ‘ diet ‘ is going good, I’ve been aiming to get a regular source of protein and vegetables etc and it’s going well, in the morning I’ll have like 7 boiled eggs and a smoothie with oats, peanut butter and some fruit, for lunch I’ll have 3 chicken breasts, 4 whole onions, some mushrooms and a little bit of rice. For dinner I’ll have whatever my family is cooking lol.

    My weight is still exactly the same 105kg so it’s nice to know I’m not getting fatter but rather maintaining and building the strength and muscle as intended. My bench press has gone from 80kg to almost 100, deadlift I managed to pull 160Kg raw with only chalk for grip and squat I hit 140kg or 315lbs today for one clean rep, good depth, good bracing and form etc.

    🧐 For those who don’t read 🧐

    Deadlift: 160kg ( 350lbs ) + chalk for grip + raw ( No belts, straps etc ) 💪

    Bench press: 95kg, closing in on 100kg ( 225lbs ) 🖐️

    Squat: 140kg ( 315lbs ) 🦵

    Conclusion

    All in all some really strong steady progress, I’m also training as per usual in my garden doing functional training, conditioning, punching bag, shadow boxing or just throwing some punches and kicks out ‘ shadow fighting ‘.

    I am becoming Lemon.

    P.S: EZ bar curls, heavy ones work really well for bracing the forearm muscles etc. I’ve managed to curl 60kg for one rep and kept up the curls, it works so much better than dumbbells for building the forearm stability etc.

        I have no calorie goal, I just eat and aim for things.

        Not very scientific but it seems to be working
