Resurrecting an old topic. If tracking macros, for most precise measuring, weigh meats uncooked or cooked? I think cooked as water content can differ, and chicken for example is often injected with water.

Apparently Fart powder goes well with it . 😂🤣

dropped 9 kilos now can only get 12 reps as opposed to 14 when heavier

Lost strength with the weight cut

Yup !

I trained once with Bostin Loyd in 2015. He could not do a single, strict pull-up if his life depended on it.

That’s pathetic.

[Blockingback]

I cant either

managed 3 sets of 6 with 10k added after a full warm up

Dips and press ups to finish

He's dropped a bit of mass now, maybe he's repping out with the Pope.

Good stuff.

Be careful and start slow - massage and fascia release is a must at an older age.
It's of course better to be able to do 60 at 20 but whatever floats your retirement boat.

[IroNat]

Why not start at 100 and work backwards?

I do lots of wrist and shoulder warm ups, a few 60 second hangs (its a killer doing those)
I then warm up with band assisted pull ups

there are way less people who can do 20 at at 60 than 60 at 20

Should be do-able, barring injury.

You may be trying to progress too quickly.

Like you said you did 14 max.

So, take 60% of 14 which is 8.

Do 5x8

Next do 98888

Next do 99888

Eventually 99999

Then do 10,999

Etc.

Even this may be too fast a progression.

You might need to do more volume.

Like you said you did 14 max.

So, take 60% of 14 which is 8.

Do 3x8 for 3 workouts

Next 3 workouts do 9,8,8

Next 3 do 9,9,8

Next 3 do 999

Then 10,9,9

Etc.

Slow progression.

Next day do 9,8,8

looks good, will give it a go this week

[IroNat]

I just changed it a bit.

The initial sets in the progression should be very do-able without affecting cns.

that maybe doable for someone at 20 trying to do 60

Adjust it to yourself.

If 5x8 is too much you could start at a lower rep range like 5x5.

[joswift]

4x5 with 10kilos added

6 sets dips repped out 20-12 reps

6 sets press ups with handles hands just above waist and lift feet off floor for a second on the upward press (building strength to work towards this

[IroNat]

Good stuff, Swifty.

Are you hitting the legs too?

3 x 6 with 10 k is great progress from where you started mate- well done!
