Yeah so I didn't think I was but I'm definitely getting stronger.

I've gained 2-3 pounds so my bulking cycle is still coming in hot.

Did my powerlifting regiment today and put up 225x6, x5, x4, 245x3 for 1 set.

Flys @70lbs and 75lbs alternating

I'm not gonna write out my whole workout but yeah I'm getting stronger, keeping my physique looking good and I'm stoked.

I also got yelled at today for dropping some 75's a couple inches from the ground today hahaha

Dropping weights isn't all that bad. As long as they fall flush with the ground, it's fine. I always control them down 90% of the way and drop them beyond what's natural for my shoulders. The trouble is gyms cater to casuals.

one time i dropped 45kg's from flat db press, my friend left his db's next to the bench i dropped them but obviously you cant control 45kg's that well crushed my finger between the 2 dumbells, you could see the bone of my finger on both sides but it wasnt any major damage and i trained in 2 weeks 4 days time.

I still drop db's

I hate pussies that cry when they hear a loud noise! Fuck off to your little concealed area where no one can see you .

If your flat benching DB's at a reasonable heavy weight, and you are able to control them on your last rep after a slow burn, your not lifting heavy enough! you should be spent, and have to drop them.

Anyways, zak good hear everything is coming together for you! You looking shredded!!

Seems like half the people in here are doing PHAT. I drop DB's all the time, mostly on the last set.

From what I understood from the routine layout, you're gonna want to hit heavy for 3-5 reps(80-90% of 1RM) then decrease weight for 6-8 reps in a cycle.

Bench I think I did 225x6, 245x3 cycled, although I had to drop the weight for the heavy set at some point for consistency and so I could hit my other exercises hard.

Weighed in at 182 with my gym pants, shoes, hoodie, tank, and iphone today.

Think I'm probably sitting at around 179-180. Thats about 6-7lbs from bulking in the last 2 weeks.

Progress pic at 179-180

This shit is definitely making me stronger.

No ab flex or anything just stagnant.




I was doing Dips with 9- pounds chained to my waist today. Bench is still strong, I'd be curious to see what I max now.

Doing legs in the morning tomorrow then Back and Biceps at night.

Oh and I decided that if after my bulk, when I'm finished cutting I like the result, I will reward myself with a SS tank.
