I'm done with this place. After four years, I'm completely disillusioned by the "in crowd" who can do what they like with no consequences. I've done my best to improve myself and help others but I'm forever an outsider so why the hell should I bother? I'll find somewhere else to track my progress.

I'll remember to just ignore the rules next time.

That can (and does) drop off frequently too.

Okay. So this is more in theme for Spezzy's challenge but my thread, my rules and I'm now totally in love with Taron Egerton (rather than my previous "ooh purdy" crush). Check this out!

Nope. We waited right until the lights came up.

I wouldn't assume the worst, though. It may just be that they suck at cooking.

If your school is anything like my work canteen, the choice to use a pasteurised egg mix is less to do with cost and more to do with health and safety. Chemicals as a whole really aren't that big of a deal because everything is made up of chemicals. It really depends on which chemicals they are, and generally a lot of them are less "scary" than they sound.

I'm doing my usual thing of totally forgetting my challenge, so here's a wee update: Been shit at doing accessories but not bad at not psyching myself out. I had a shoulder issue so didn't fuck with it and chose to look after it instead. Sometimes the right thing is not pushing through. Been AWESOME at nailing my macros, even with Tuesday's blow out. Now sitting around 63.5kg with another couple of kg to go, ideally, but just going to see how it goes. My calories were put up this week after a big drop, so running with 2403c, 152p, 67f, 298c. Okay with fun. Went to se

Sooo... I finally went and saw a sports medicine doctor because my physio was concerned about the regularity of the injuries I get in my hips, particularly given that I score a 7 on the Beighton scale (hypermobility on all checked joints except my knees). He went through a few things with me but actually said my back seems pretty healthy and the main thing I need to work on is strength in my left glute and single leg control. Otherwise, he dictated a rather nice letter in which he referred to me as "an elite powerlifter" and "of athletic build" which made it hard not to giggle. I s

I was thinking of starting my reverse diet today but then Avatar put my calories up quite dramatically because I'd lost so much in the last week (debloat, probably) so I'll stick it out a few more weeks and see what happens.

I basically leave him to do his thing in terms of programming, even if it does mean band squats and double pause bench.

After three hours a session, I'm not really looking to add more lifting. I'll do it when it's in my programme.

Did a side by side comparison of myself now and myself three years ago and I still need to cut a bit more to get where I want to be. Not sharing the pics.

A lot of it is telling me things I already know at the moment but it's nice being able to ask Layne Norton questions in the group and I'm looking forward to seeing what happens in the reverse.

Yup. It's mostly for the reverse more than the cut, as cutting is easy.
