Okay guys I am on day 11 right now:
I just stepped on the scale, first thing in the morning, and I was 224lbs.
My strength is out of this world compared to where I started. The days of lifting heavy as shit were over for me 10 years ago. I lift slow and steady and wicked controled. If you go slow enough on movements when you lift it can feel 50% heavier..
Example: at a bodyweight of 190lbs I benched 405lbs for 3... a shoulder injury side lined me a few months later..
Now at 220+ I only push 315lbs for 8-10reps for 3 sets and lower slowly and push up controled not like a rocket taking off into space.
My overall strength is up on all movements about 10%... I get too pumped now too quickly and have to be careful how fast I train so I leave room to move weight not just get "pumped up"
