Title: training while trying to lean out
Post by: trapz101 on May 15, 2013, 09:27:04 PM

do you guys use the same weight or lower them or even try to use more weight(progressive overload) week after week?
or change the intensity etc?

i have the fear of not increasing the weight i'm using,let alone decreasing them,even just 5lbs for  a week,but apparently you're not getting any stronger...any thoughts?

thanks man

and in my opinion/experience what's required is to keep the cals pretty damn low and to keep them that low day in and day out

also, i only averaged about 115-125 protein grams per day
