ParticipantAwesome Joe, really grateful for this. I will get this watched asap, I noticed it’s on for nearly an hour so will do it when I go for a walk, steps ‘n’ education can’t beat it mate. But yeah I am gonna finish this week off (Terrence and your program) and as I said I’ve been bulking Joe for around 8-9 months, no breaks, no de-loads, not deficits, not skipped a meal and been very consistent, even previously before I got the app, so I’ll hop on that recovery program for a few weeks (I’ve not checked it out yet) and I’ll have a little tidy up, take it easy for a few weeks and then choose a program and go again. 👍🏽 thank you as always for replying. Will keep you updated 💯

ParticipantYeah mate I’ve been progressing with this program as I said I’ve been adding weeks, I’ve fitted it into my schedule and I am in routine with this program which is all managed with my recovery as well. I have been waiting for updates as previously mentioned so yes I will continue to do this program, just what is the best week to start on now then with the new update?

ParticipantThank you Bryce. (I wish I could speak back because I hate writing essays lol) but yeah I completely agree with what your saying, and for your information I’m doing the Terrance and Joe program. (Week 10) I’m on so that’s the only program I’ve been doing since joining the app. I’m progressing each week, loggings, strength is up, but as I said I’ve been bulking now for 8 months if not just a bit more and it’s a matter of when do I do a mini cut, I do feel I’ve hit a plateau with the weight gain and feel if I put more on now my body fat will increase, but I’ve gained 12kg now and that’s where I’m at. Volume and sets I’m only following the program I’ve said, I’ve done no pump work etc (except feeder sets/warm up sets then into working sets) focussed on 10k steps or more I day, so no cardio. I work 10-12hrs a day, train 5 days a week, (after work) and as I said I’m consistent! I just feel I’ve hit a brick wall…..

ParticipantAnd this is the macros given by you per meal

ParticipantJoe/Bryce thank you for the replies. Much appreciated. 👍🏽 that’s what I do now if I feel like my knees are really flaring up due to heavy leg presses etc I’ll sit back on increasing load and focus more so on form, reduce rep speed etc and concentrate on going deeper. Why I have it in my mind about increasing weight to just progressively overload I will never know but again it’s a mind thing and I’d rather progressively improve in form, technique etc rather than try and pop my knees with just adding further unnecessarily weight haha. I tend to do a lot more lunges, leg extensions etc because they just feel better and the muscle mind connection is more there as well. So thank you for your reply 👍🏽

ParticipantThank you Bryce, do you think it would work better for me rather than doing yours and joes current program. I do like yours as it is more upper bias and arms and like I said I’m on week 8 now (I just keep extending my weeks) but there is no pump work, no super sets and no updates where as I’ve heard that after 4 weeks of the PPL 2.0 it gets harder as it goes along and I do feel like I can push myself more if needs be just that I’m used to your program now with the 2 working sets (also do warm up/feeder sets as well) thank you
Tom
ParticipantThank you Bryce for the advice and response. We the program it self I just keep adding weeks as I go along because no further updates have been added which I think Joe has mentioned because it’s yours and his current program.
I’m in that position at the minute where I love my meals (I am very consistent with them), and for me to manage it slowly by reducing the Cals/volume will be quite straight forward because I pretty much each the same meals with tweaks here and there with certain things.
I just don’t want to get in the position where cardio is introduced but if I have to do 10-15 mins after my weight session I will do, I just don’t want to reduce food by a lot.I am however thinking of changing my program from your program to the PPL 2.0 but I only go gym 5 times a week so wouldn’t be able to do it twice a week. Do you have any suggestions?

ParticipantThank you Bryce, I must admit my sleep is not of great quality but routine is the same most days, my macros are P285g C450-500g and F70g a day, currently on a bulking phase but soon will be doing a cut. My energy is there, strength is fine, having a bit of stress with work with a few issues but other than that all is good. I’m eating 5 meals a day, I don’t go hungry and my bowl movement is consistent. What do you suggest mate
Tom
ParticipantAlso spices? Cajun spice, paprika spices? I don’t track those either
