are your chicken breasts smaller then ours?

i mean ours are normally 300-400grams each...

thats 2kg of chicken breast in one sitting :shock: or 300-400g of protein for lunch!
they have between 20 and 33g of protein per breast, they are thin and bun sized.

God this is fantastic. All we need now is a cardiologist on camera or something as you dictate this diet to him.

Not THAT would be something :)

chest and back today

bench- 95x10, 165x9
pullovers- 55x9

incline DB bench- 50x48 in 15 minutes
tbar rows- +70x84 in 15 minutes

chest felt pretty weak today, probably because of my lack of sleep the past 2 nights. tbar rows were too easy so ill be bumping up the weight next time. i think normally i would use 2 plates, but i didnt think id be able to keep that up for the full 15 minutes.

for the EDT, how long of a break should i take between sets? i was waiting ~45 seconds. for the incline it got hard towards the end to get the first rep, but each set was never below 3 reps.

Wow, 45 sec is too little IMO.

I like 2 min rests. Nice sweet spot between too much and too little recovery given the goal of hypertrophy with EDT.

todays workout was a joke. i dont know how much easier it could have been considering how tired i was when i woke up and that my upper back was sore from squats. i woke up tired on about 7 hours of sleep, reset my alarm and tried to go back to bed but wasnt falling asleep. figured i might as well hit the gym since i might not have time later.

bench- 105x10, 135x5, 185x5
db pullovers- 65x6

incline db bench- 55x38 in ~15 minutes
t bar rows- +90x42 in ~15 minutes

my right side was dying during bench and on the last rep of 185 i actually had my left arm straight when my right was still half way down which has never happened before. i also would have had more reps on db incline had my right arm not been dying again. for the tbar rows, i cant remember the last time i did 2 plates so easy. i did all sets of 6 and only "struggled" on the last rep of the last 2 sets. ill be bumping up the weight on both next workout.
also noted at the end of the day im weighing in at around 220. ive been drinking ~2 gallons of water a day all week and im crediting the weight gain thus far to that plus being back on creatine. diet has been between 2500-3100 calories a day since the first 3 days of the feast.
