I second everything you said!! Edamame and yogurt are a staple in my diet. I got some vegan chicken nugs to try today and they have a decent amount of protein in them as well

I used this for my main 4 lifts then added at least 2 other cable exercises and just did 5 sets of 10 reps at a comfortable weight. Weekends I spend 3 hours at the gym so I’ll usually do many sets of high weights and low reps weekdays I follow the chart with 2 smaller lifts like I said in beginning. Not sure if that helps but it works for me lol plus it’s fun to use other workouts and make them your own!

Has anyone tried Ghost protein powder? I’ve been using premier lately but when I went for my reorder last night amazon offered that other brand and they have a cinnabon flavor. I’m a huge cinnamon fan lol so I’m thinking of giving it a try

Nice!! That’s exactly what I was wondering. The premier mixes really well compared to the nutraone I was using. I’m gonna give it a try when I need my next container. Thanks

Do you guys do a deload week? I’ve been going to gym every second day for almost 2 months and someone suggested I do a deload week this week.

Hey, yes absolutely that’s important. Rhythm and frequency depend on you, there’s no hard rule but after two months is good, could also be sooner. I usually just take a week off. In the past I would sometimes just drop the volume.

Thanks - felt great to get the muscles moving. Leg day tomorrow, will need to be careful first time back. Might stick strictly to bodyweight exercises this first time. Going to ice/heat throughout the day all week just to help.
Interested to see how my body responds to lifting under my new mostly vegetarian diet.

If your going all vegetarian, are you taking in extra whey, in order get you protein up or eating more of the other stuff, yogurt nuts that kind of thing

It’s def tough getting the protein in from real food, sans meat! Respect to people that make it work. I will. “High protein” nonmeat options are great but the ratio of protein/volume isn’t even close. Still eat them though yeah.
Prevously I was keeping it around 200g/day. Now I’m on the lower end but still getting 1g protein per lb of bodyweight

Day off today.
After chest/bis Monday, and legs yesterday, followed by PT yesterday afternoon - it’s a good day to chill, esp in my first week back at it. Particularly my legs, if they’re wiped out like this then I run the risk of putting my back into an exercise it doesn’t belong in.
Everything above is sore AF in the best way possible.
Theragun, take me awayyyyyy

Guess who added plates to their bar this morning
If you guessed me, you’d be right 
Originally, I ordered 10lb plates but I didn’t take into consideration that would be a 20lb jump so I ordered some baby 5lbs and was able to do my squats and deadlifts with those Baby steps 🏋🏻♀🏋🏻♀
