After weeks of feeling stuck, my weight is finally going up. I’ve been staying more consistent with food, training, and rest.
Small progress is still progress. My goal now is to keep building and see how far I can take this transformation.
My bloodwork stayed fine, but I kept an eye on glucose the whole time.
Honestly I expected muscle growth. Instead I appreciated the recovery more.
I actually overtrained because I felt too good. Learned that lesson the hard way.
I bounced back faster between push sessions, but squats still humbled me every time.
As a powerlifter, I cared less about soreness and more about whether my bar speed came back quicker. It definitely seemed to.
Same experience here, man. Recovery improved enough that I had to remind myself not to keep adding volume just because I felt fresh.
