Week 1 rebound update. Pic 1 is 3:47am balls ass early pre-gym pic. Pic 2 is today’s weigh-in. Pic 3 is post back workout pic.
I was 202.6 morning of the show, 212.4 the morning after, and 217.9 one week post show. I know, and prepared myself for, the weight gain that I knew was coming. I have read about, watched videos, and listened to podcasts all dealing with PSR and what to expect.
I gotta admit that even knowing all this was going to happen, I am a little surprised at how much I put on in a weeks time.
The original plan was to go up to 3300-3500cal/day starting July 31 and run that until August 28th. I have amended that and starting today I have dropped it to 3300cal/day, going to 3200 next week, then 3100 the week after, finally setting in at 3000 starting the week of the 28th.
I have also amended the workout schedule, instead of doing 70-80% of my max starting August 4th until August 20th I, will do one more week at 70-80% and then ramp back up to 100%.
If I notice any drop in strength or reps, I will go back to 70-80% for another week but after these past few workouts I do not anticipate that happening.
The goal now is keeping the BW within 210-220 and going from there, upping my carb intake and getting body fat % up a little so I can start adding quality muscle to my frame.
