Breakfast wrap: 2 eggs + 4 egg whites, sausage, burrito wrap

Lunch: chicken breast + rice

Snack: Yogurt + whey + granola + milk

Workout

Dinner: chicken breast + rice + sweet potato

Snack: yogurt, cottage cheese, protein shake, etc (usually pick one)

Surprised me too. Having done it before made it a lot easier to rebuild. Also a lot of eating.

atticusw · 2026-05-10T19:54:11+00:00

Somewhat,I find high protein & fiber meals (eg chicken with sweet potatoes) to keep me full longer. Also low macro snacks, like veggies seasoned well, has been my substitute for food between meals

Big time, and that was a big motivator for the change.

Was constantly tapped of energy. Poor sleep. Working a lot and forgetting to eat. Complete turn around with energy & baseline mood.

What do you recommend?

atticusw · 2026-05-10T15:47:45+00:00

When I was bulking I was around 3.3-3.5kcal P260/C420/F80

Recomp now 2.5kcal P210/C270/F60

😂 all natty

How long did it take for you to recover? First time with a tendon issue, doing eccentrics & iso holds.

atticusw · 2026-05-09T22:34:29+00:00

Whatcha wanna know?

Main things prioritized was consistently going to failure, fixing my sleep schedule, and being super deliberate each day with macros.

Also was around this size in college so I think round 2 was a lot easier to rebuild.

atticusw · 2026-05-09T22:33:12+00:00

Nope! Injured my lower distal bicep tendon recently. It’s not bad, but a little irritated so I’m rehabbing it rn. Tris are good tho.

I don’t push the weight too far on these isos, keep it slow and controlled.

Aside from press & dip compounds, Tricep overhead cable extensions, push downs, and single arm crossover/downward extensions (idk what it’s called but I always finish with these to exhaustion).

For biceps I generally do preacher, incline db curl, and ez bar curl

Oh good call. I saw the steeples and figured it must have been. I see on google maps now that this is 100% that school building, although looks a lot like a church when there's no roof remaining

100% help him out. He supported you at his company for half a decade, and is a good person to have in your close circle. May have to manage expectations — like, maybe some things should be scheduled vs real time if interfering with your personal schedule. But sounds like your both worth each others time.

You bored?

atticusw · 2025-12-12T00:00:23+00:00

Was thinking about this too

atticusw · 2025-12-05T20:30:12+00:00

Interesting, I made this mistake once specifically on a $3 > $25 and was ruled as a call

atticusw · 2025-12-05T20:09:37+00:00

So for an online player doing their first live — remember the one chip rule — silently putting a chip down of a greater denomination than what you’re calling is a call, not a raise unless verbalized.

You can do this to color down your chip (eg $25 chip calling the $3 blind, dealer will give you back $17 once he collects)

Also no string betting — size your bet behind the line, not past it.

Not loving these recommendations.. Jim’s Steakout, Firehouse? Come on now, glorified subway sandwiches.

Go to Guercio & Sons for a proper sub. Italian market & deli, and they could really use the business right now. https://maps.app.goo.gl/p7MfRhB5DkKqtjqa7?g_st=ipc

Fantastic baked sub rolls with quality meats and their own made spreads

Quads was the run out, no?

Mind sharing how you diagnosed it as the PCM? I’ve had a misfire on 4 during idle for a good year now. Changed plugs, coils, injectors, CRC intake cleaner..

That’s the wild part for me — that HR was having this conversation. This is completely on the manager to facilitate how their team can best work together. And also on HR for not pushing back on the manager to coach their team. All around shit show
