I don't really know why I was leaving it off, but I added linear leg press to my last two leg / back day and that has been a huge confidence boost since I can max it out (14 plates) and still throw 8 reps for 3 sets. I think I'm going to do one session next week to find out all my one rep maxes, cuz I think I could do at least 375 for one on squats and deads. To be clear, if I attempt this, I should definitely eat first right? I haven't attempted yet because it wasn't really part of my goals, and I always work out in a fasted state, but now that I've come this far it doesn't make sense to not at least see how strong I am. Ideally you'd want to have a meal around 30 min to 2 hours before your workout, high in protein and fat, then during your workout you want to have a carb + protein drink of 30g carb & 15g protein in 16oz quantity sipping 4oz every 15 min. Then after your workout, meal high in carbs and protein. Also, I would suggest you do training maxes instead of true maxes, the potential for injury on true maxes is really high and your training max is going to be no more than 10% less than your true max. --- In this world, is the destiny of man controlled by some transcendental entity or law? Is it like the hand of God hovering above? <cite>lincoln002 posted [p:941904471] in How are yo...
