-Understandable. We're all glued to tweets/hob/etc. Workouts haven't been affected though.
-Picked up a whoop because I'm trying to have something to monitor my sleep and recovery. Seems to be ok. Still not in love with a wearable in bed but it's way lighter than my watch. So far, I sleep like ****. Not surprising, especially after vacation last week.
-Didn't lift last week. 4 bike rides to kick off the season. 2 days of mobility. Ate and drank like an *******, which undoubtly affected my first weigh in since the fall. However, coming off that **** has me lazer focused.
Starting point for 12 week cut:
*227 / 23%(which I'm a bit dubious on, should have a better reading Friday without all the water from booze and cheesecake hangovers)
*Obviously, more bf than I would have liked, wish it was 20-21% granted it probably is. Mirror test suggests it is. Still plenty of definition. Belly isn't near what it's been at that weight before.
*Strength is through the roof. Shoulders and Back mass seem to be the big gainers this round. Belt loop was getting snug one loop up on about 15-17# increase.
*Big thing, at that weight I was very comfortable. As agile and flexible as I've been since probably 18. Also, no pain or injuries.
* Dropping calories to 2000 for a quick 2-3 week burn vacation off, then aiming for 2200. Yesterday was 2030g cal, 256g protein, 47g fat, 63g carbs. I won't stay that low for more than a couple weeks.
*Strict counting of calories including condiments and grazing.
*Increasing weight, decreasing reps, increasing cardio, decreasing carbs, increasing proteins, decreasing fat, increasing sodium and water, decreasing booze, increasing sleep, increasing sauna and definitely increasing plunge.
Want to be <15% by July.
