Just curious PL's how you determine your diet?
Do you adjust cals accord to strength gains or weight gain? How do you balance eating enough to gain strength but not too much that you get fat? Or perhaps you don't care how fat you get as long as you get stronger?

Figured this would be a good time for anyone interested to post their current lifts and what their year end goals are. Maybe help to get focused and dialed in on making some gains in these last 3 months. I figured we can update as any of them hit our goals or get close.

Obviously being even mildly consistent with all 4 will yield the most optimal results. But which could be considered more vital than others? Can overdoing one overcompensate or make up for the relative lack of another?

CNS Stimulants range from Caffeine to the Amphetamine family.
Probably someone with experience or from a medical background could answer this.
Do CNS Stimulants actually improve CNS gains or do they just mask fatigue while they're active?

So we have been dis-cussing how useful the eccentric part of the rep is for most exercises. By most I mean exercises that primarily move single joints and definitely some compounds too.

I thought I'd start a thread where we could review a program based on our own personal experiences. There's no right or wrong reviews, just opinions and sharing what worked and what didn't.

Wondering how you guys have found touch and go benching as a tool in bringing up your strict comp bench? Versus training paused exclusively
Do you find the loss in carryover gets in the way of its value?
Or simply a good way to build the base of a bigger comp bench?
