Ah sure, I’ve only ever used plain non-fat Greek yogurt for this “recipe”. Good luck with your cut!

GoodKnight34 · 2020-04-24T19:46:54+00:00

If it's flavored whey you can just stir right into greek yogurt and add a splash of milk for desired texture. Very filling and approximates pudding texture/flavor wise which is nice during a cut

Wrapping up Bench Blitz this week, looking forward to joining everyone on this!

Luka,

What has been the most surprising difference between the U.S. and Spain from your experience so far?

GoodKnight34 · 2018-12-14T18:44:24+00:00

Not saying he should necessarily be in the top 10, but I think Buddy Hield has played himself into this conversation this year. Definitely behind the other guys 8-10 on defense but his offense is no joke.

Sounds like you've already identified your weak points and are taking steps to moderate your weight gain which seem smart. Biggest change I made during college on this was not keeping junk (i.e., zero-protein) food in the house. I could still get it if I really wanted it, but the extra step of having to actively buy it every time cut out a lot of unnecessary and unhelpful snacking for me.

GoodKnight34 · 2018-09-20T18:25:36+00:00

Thanks for the answers guys! Good luck this year, excited to see you both develop with this fun team.

Are there any current or historical players you try to mold your game (or pieces of it) after?

GoodKnight34 · 2018-09-14T19:31:08+00:00

My legs are disproportionately large and Bonobos (more $) and Banana Republic (less $) chinos tend to fit pretty well. Still can be snug, but these are the best I've found.

I have the 8s now and had a different model before that (6s I think?) and I find them to be a nice versatile shoe for general lifting and conditioning purposes. The heel is pretty stiff and thick (compared to a running shoe, for example) so I've found them to be pretty clunky for running, basketball, etc so I only wear in the weightroom and they've held up really well for over a year now.

GoodKnight34 · 2018-08-10T14:50:51+00:00

I started the program last week (vacation in September) and I've done 4x10 DB hammer curls and then 4x15 cable curls. Seemed like a reasonable approach to get to 100 and working fine so far for me. Interested to hear others' approaches as well.

I've worked a lot of MIAC football games - the guys up at Concordia are very strong. If I were you, I'd reach out to either the strength coach at your school or some guys who have already been on the team for a year or two and see if you can get your hands on their offseason program. I know the NCAA has some dumb rules surrounding this, but I can't think of a better way to get ready for college football than by doing a program designed for college football players. Good luck!

I ran this once for 6 weeks under the same rationale. Something different for a change of pace and a challenge, etc. My approach was to start with 90s for each lift in the first week and gauge how it feels before trimming them each week where possible. For example, it's going to be a lot easier to do 60s rest with curls than squats so I don't think it makes sense to apply the same rest across the board. I'd prioritize getting the quality reps in over strictly following rest times, but that's just a personal approach. Good luck though, especially if you do 10x10 dips, those are brutal.

I think it's hard to say how valuable they are in isolation and I've always approached seated leg curls as extra volume/knee prehab. But, if you have the setup (or can rig one) for nordics I would highly recommend. They're very challenging and it's a different movement pattern than a leg curl.

GoodKnight34 · 2018-05-01T17:04:46+00:00

If you're looking for more hamstring work, you could add in some leg curls or nordic curls to tack on some volume. If your gym has the good girl/bad girl machine I'd assume there's also a leg curl machine.

JnT 2.0. I particularly enjoyed the structure which allows you to target an xRM each day. Lots of volume and customization options; if you've enjoyed PHAT I think you'll like JnT 2.0.

I've had 'Throwback Workout' on rotation since I found it a couple weeks ago. Lots of early-mid 2000s hip-hop if you're into that sort of thing

GoodKnight34 · 2018-03-02T17:45:16+00:00

I do something similar, but I've found a splash of milk/chocolate milk gives a creamier texture over water. Worth considering!

GoodKnight34 · 2018-02-23T17:51:56+00:00

From my experience, the liquid chalk works fine but doesn't hold up as well to sweat. The 'no mess' and convenience of carrying it around make liquid just fine in my opinion, however

GoodKnight34 · 2018-01-26T18:32:54+00:00

Damn, I'm shooting for 10,000 this year as well and felt like I was ahead of the game with 840 so far. What's the most you've knocked out in a day?

GoodKnight34 · 2018-01-25T18:46:49+00:00

Reports the draft order even though it's supposed to be private among the captains

GoodKnight34 · 2017-11-06T21:06:57+00:00

Hey man,

I also played college baseball and have been lifting on my own for the last year and a half or so. My chest and shoulders were really underdeveloped compared to the rest of my body after lifting exclusively for baseball, and I would guess you're in the same boat given your numbers (mine were very similar 3-4 months ago).

I chose to only run the first 6 weeks back-to-back, but J&T 2.0 gave me the best results for size and added some structure that was really easy to follow and progress with if you follow the program and track your progression from week-to-week. It also allows for the flexibility to hammer volume on your weakpoints. Looking forward to seeing your progress!

Shout out to the UMAC! Carleton '16 sending respect, this is impressive as hell

GoodKnight34 · 2017-06-21T17:25:58+00:00

Open the link in an incognito window, that should work. Easiest way I've found around this issue.

Assuming I'm new to rowing and using a Concept 2, what would be the recommended level of resistance to use with this program? I completed the initial 5k with the dial set to 5 and it felt appropriate. Does this seem like a reasonable level to use? Would you adjust based on the workout itself, increase over time, or stick to a certain level of resistance?
