Dark mate, congrats. Now stack on the W.Seemed like I was stuck at 200 for months.
I'm a beginner with about 1 year of proper training and nutrition.
Today was a rest day, I just went to the gym to stretch.
Warm up sets became working sets and I felt strong.
Things rarely go as planned. The other times I planned to hit a PR failed.
Supplements I used before the bench: beta alanine, creatine monohydrate, citrulline malate, caffeine, multivitamin, probiotic, fish oil.
Pre-workout meal: Rice and chicken+ protein shake
This is by no means anything to brag about but for a guy 300+ lbs over two years back in a huge 500 calorie deficit since, I gained strength and mass while losing over 100 lbs in fat.
Feel free to comment if you have any questions.
Current stats: 6'2 + 200 lbs + 17% body fat
I'm no scientist or sports pro athlete. I found if I switch up my routines, I break past plateaus. For instance, 5x5 3×8-12 is the range I play in. I was aiming for a 4 plate squat BUT I started noticing soreness and stiff knees. I pulled back. It's simply not ideal nor functional. 5x5 was my route there.
See what you respond to and get there. Keep it up brother.
