11th January Heavy Weight/Low Rep Legs Workout 87.6kg

Squats 100kg 4,3,3

Leg Press 150kg 6,6,6
Barbell Goodmornings 30kg 8,6,6
Barbell Lunge 30kg 5,4,4

Since moving to low carb I've definitely felt a bit less power in my workouts even though I've stuck to maintenance calories. Felt a bit less "zip" in my deadlifts this morning.

Hopefully I'll get that power back once I'm properly fat adapted.

diet recap since restarting LCHF

>I haven't lost any weight because I've had very poor adherence due to travel/socialising
>I've lost some strength due to dropping carbs and creatine from my diet
>However on the positive side I feel so so so much better for being on a LCHF diet, I know the weight will tumble off once I I have 2-3 weeks in the zone :)

I'll get back to logging from today

Well done on your consistency, and it's great that you're enjoying your workouts, that's what it's all about mate.

My question if I may please is this: you're most certainly moving some serious weights here with the one arm d/bell rows, so I was curious as to (perhaps) see how much you can truly move had you had a fresh set of biceps and forearms prior to you commencing your d/bell rows.

Thank you for sharing your workout here, I find your consistency and dedication exceptional as well as inspirational.

My current gym only has 50kg Dumbbells so I'm slightly hamstrung in maxing out this lift.

I tell you what though I'm going to buy some straps to add some plates to the 50kg dbs to crank it up to 60kg and see how I go.

DB rows are probably my favourite exercise.
