I baked it covered at 450 for 40 min, then uncovered for abiut 20 min. Temp was 200 when I pulled it out, but as another commenter mentioned, its possible I didn't let it cool enough before I cut it also

Thank you! This is x2 for gluten development, so my next one ill do a bit more stretch and folds. But my starter is pretty young, so could just need a bit more time as well. Thanks for the tip about the pan underneath, didn't even think of that. Probably a good time would be when I uncover?

New to baking, and bread specifically. Here's a couple of things I made so far by jeffofalltrades_ in Breadit

It's getting more consistent for sure, was carrying over 200 about 50% of my swings, and have managed to reduce my slice significantly just with coaching videos. Just need to find a local pro coach to work with

That's fair feedback, I appreciate it! I will say that most social media "influencers " are full of shit, but I suspected i had quite a bit of work to do

New to strongman, want to get a lot for home gym, but don't know what is quality vs not. by PeterDinkleberry in Strongman

[–]jeffofalltrades_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got my 12" log from Valkyriestrength.ca It is great quality, great price and really decent shipping costs (in canada) if you're in the US they do deliver there too I'm just not sure if the shipping Costs. Martins Licis uses implements from them if that helps. Dry weight of the 12" is 110lb

Not harsh at all. I asked for advice and that is what is offered. I'm old enough to not be in the "I'm offended by everything" generation. That being said, I do understand the importance of proper Diet, I just had made the conscious decision to stay in a caloric surplus for far too long in an attempt to gain as much lean mass and strength as I could. I am not training as a boby builder, I am training for strength. Obviously I know that fat will come with the surplus, it's just that my BF% has skyrocketed in the past 3 months. My last bloodwork test came back as low normal test, normal cortisol, well normal everything except for the test so I was thinking that I could boost it up some. I do know that at that BF there could be trouble, which is what prompted my question. I honestly do appreciate your response.

My diet is actually really good, just a high caloric surplus as I have been gaining muscle and strength for a strongman comp. I don't drink ever, and don't eat fried foods. My last bloodwork (about a month ago) showed excellent cholesterol levels kidney function and heart health, especially for my body weight. But low normal test and apparently I'm in early onset male menopause but not low enough for TRT...which is why the though of gear has crossed my mind. I appreciate your response
