A journey of The Primary Fivesome

"If I'd chosen the squat, deadlift, bench press, seated press, and the pulldown, and dedicated myself for five years to progressive poundages on those five core movements as the linchpin of my training, I would have gotten near to realizing my full size and strength potential before I was but 20 years old." -Stuart McRobert

New Goals:
Squat 300 lbs x 20 (and 400 x 1)
Deadlift 400 x 15 (and 500 x 1)
Bench Press 265 x 6 (and 300 x 1)
Overhead Press 175 x 6
Pulldown 240 x 6

Cheat days vs Cheat meals

Cheat days = incredible increases in caloric intake once every 5-7 days improves fat-loss by having your metabolic rate avoiding downshifting from extended caloric restriction.

Cheat meals=  followed along with the correct diet, having one cheat meal every 5-10 days is an effective means of reaching 8% bodyfat or even less.

Welcome to Heaven.

Training = more mental or more physical?

"Creative imagination is not something reserved for the poets, the philosophers, the inventors. It enters into our every act. For imagination sets the goal picture which our automatic mechanism works on. We act, or fail to act, not because of will, as is so commonly believed, but because of imagination." -Maxwell Malitz, Psycho-Cybernetics
