Diario de -Diablo, 11 jun. 19

Thanks, should have another one tomorrow 

No running just 1.5 hours of lifting and less than 3k calories. Works well so far. 

Not yet. 

Profile pic from yesterday. I think I've added some trap size from my deadlifts. 

💪👊 

If you're not getting too fat, I'd say you're doing it right. I never do shrugs. I really don't want the gorilla look haha, just deads or rack deads have built mine up. 

I rarely ever work abs and they show even with a lot of fat on the stomach. Seems they grow just from doing other heavy compounds. Good to see another example of that. I know what you mean on the thickness, I already miss it as far as filling out shirts more. I look a lot better in a tank top already though so it makes up for it. 

15 pounds on your 6-foot frame may not be as much as you'd like but after this cut, bulk once again. Rinse and repeat and you'll be where you want eventually, man! 

I'm in it for the long haul, looking forward to seeing your progress! 

Thanks! I feel like this bulk was wasted because it seems that all I did was gain fat but then I see pics and notice some gains. They are minimal but that is to be expected at this point. 

Way to always be in control of your weight diablo 👌🏼 

Great drop! You are doing just wonderfully, and your picture proves this! 👍🏻👍🏻 

I thought I was doing something wrong for a while, meaning losing 2 lbs, then gaining 1 lb, then losing 2 lb, etc... up, down, etc, just wanted to thank you guys/gals for helping me understand that's just normal weight loss. How the body works! @chriss, from what I understand a lot of exercises work the core, abs without us even realizing we are. Farmers carries, dumbbell bench presses, deadlifts, squats, (well most compound movements, that's why they are so important) . Hope I am right on this. It's funny you said you noticed your lower traps growing diablo, I just noticed mine (not on your scale! Lol but for my body) growing a bit or just being a lot more pronounced, my brother mentioned it, cause I never really looked. For the past two months, in between workout days (mon, wed, Friday) I do regeneration moves, like resistance band face pulls, etc. light stretching just to keep the blood flowing, and noticed a difference in my body just from that. Who would have thought at 45 (46 in two weeks!) i would be in the best shape of my life! Sorry for long response, just get amped when I see others as into it as me. Thanks for the help in understanding these new, but life changing concepts!
