Hey Eric, I saw you trying for your PB on the bench yesterday, thought I'd share with our friends............................http://www.crazyshit.com/cnt/medias/...ttle-too-heavy
Safety bars not safe, lol!
Strength always took a hit when I get sick like that. But it's coming back. But presses took a hard toll, even before I was sick the weight on presses were getting down, even with me angry and not wanting too. Seems that the diet/loosing weight hit the BP more then any other lifts.
Before diet I was doing on bench press (always have been my ultimate weakness despite me wanting to perform on this lift) 275lbsx2, 245x4, 225x7, 205x11 and now (from yesterday) 255x2, 225x5, 205x8, 185x11, on incline DBs it was even worse, instead of 120s I went with the 100s. On all other exercises, I was using pretty much all the same weights but was short of 1 or 2 reps.

Not related to the diet and didn't want to start a thread for that, but is there any weapons/army stuff fans here ?
I had the opportunity to go to the Cansec trade show, probably not many people knows about this show, it's pretty much not for the public and on invitation only. This is where manufacturers comes to show their 'toys' so the army, and police, ans such can buy equipments. There was 200 exhibitors, so I've seen a lot of government officials, high ranked military personal (lots of General). I 'played' with bazookas, assaults riffles, snipers, real missile simulator, there was a real F-18 simulator with all the gadgets. I've toyed with the lightest .50 cal sniper in the world, handguns.
The top of the top of military equipments, flying light machine-guns (no kidding), de-mining suits, radars, drones, top tech armored 4x4, virtual parachute training, I played with a M4 in a shooting range simulator, a real M4 but with tons of sensors that you use to shoot targets on a huge screens, (with about 60% of recoil), it measure your accuracy and everything. They showed me how to use a missile station, how to lock down a flying target and shoot it.
Took 100 photos!

Week #9, I am at 197.8lbs so I lost 0.8lbs. I took my weight on Friday and it was 197.2lbs, so I thought I was on the good track, but it raised afterward. I'm gonna check more closely, but it seems that I'm at my lightest every 5 days after the re-feed meal and then stop loosing weight or raise.
This week I intend to take 50g avocado instead of 1T of EVOO wiht my shakes and add 10min cardio, so 50 min everyday before breakfast.
If it doesn't cut it, I'll begin fat free day next week.
Eric
The .6 pounds is insignificant and could be anything from water retention from somewhat more sodium, less sleep, not as thorough of a BM, etc etc...the point being as I said before that is completely over analyzing things as your body will constantly fluctuate daily. A .8 pound loss is ok but it also signifies you need to ramp things up...10min cardio isnt enough...it would be if you lost 2lbs but you did not...increase by 20min daily.
No need to touch diet.

Ok thanks Ted, will do that!
60min before breakfast.
Eric
Week #10, I am at 195.4lbs so I've lost a nice 2.4lbs. I need to say I have introduced caffeine before morning cardio, which is a first and I feel the effect since I'm pretty much a caffeine virgin, I've drank like 2 coffees in my whole life and I use very rarely caffeine before workouts. So this new introduction to my diet might have had a slight diuretic effect and good fat burning on me this week, anyhow I welcome the loss of 2.4lbs.
I will increase cardio only, no change to the diet! Since I do 60 before breakfast, I'm guessing it's time now to do additional cardio time after training. Starting with what ? 10-20 min after working out ?
I also have the possibility to increase from 60 to 75 min before breakfast, something I can keep for later. I do have a very nice path I like to do, from Ottawa downtown, to the Parliament, through Major Hill's park, then taking the Alexandra's bridge, walking along the Outaouais's river, then coming back by the bridge on Booth street. Awesome circuit!
Is 75 min ok before breakfast ?
Side note, even though I've lost 15lbs so far, contrary to usual, it doesn't look like I've lost 15lbs of fat, 8-10 at most. I would say I still have 20lbs to loose to be ripped. I can push the diet for another 10 weeks at most, after that we are out of the country for 3 weeks, pretty hard and not fun to diet in vacation.
