Week 6 - Post 1: Staying Locked In and Pushing Through
So bros, week 6 is officially here, and that means I’m at the belly button the half way point of this recomp cycle grind!

Alreain six weeks deep, I’m staying locked in, and keeping the mind right on the pushing!
Physically, I feel in a good place getting leaner, tighter, strength is holding solid, and that vascularity is coming in but you know how this goes, it’s never all smooth sailing. This week’s focus is making those adjustments, kinda dialing things in even tighter to make sure the second half my cycle is just as productive as the first. I hope you bros are following along here.
My shoulder is still talking to me, interrupting my day when I least want it to, but I’ve been managing it with BPC-157 and TB-500, plus some more prehab work before hitting the weights. I’m really just not letting this take me out of the game just that easily, I’m making smart modifications and staying the course.
Here are my iggest training updates:
The Incline dumbbell press is STAYING it feels really solid, and no unnecessary stress on the shoulder.
Barbell rows swapped for chest-supported T-bar rows I wan to protecting my lower back while keeping the back thick.
Cardio was BUMPED up slightly fasted AM cardio is now 25 minutes incline walk to keep the fat melting off.

I’m happy that even with slight calorie adjustments, strength is still big enough to turn heads in the gym.

I’m waking up drier and sharper each morning is what it looks like to me in the mirror.

Bros, this is where the real work starts now when you're past the hype of the first few weeks, this is where some guys start to slack, and that ain’t happening here to me no sir. My diet is locked, training is dialed, and my head is exactly where it needs to be injury and all.
Halfway there and no signs of slowing down now.
Let's keep killing it, drop your thoughts, bros who else is in the grind right now?

Nice work Bru

Week 6 - Post 2:
Yes thats right bros, back again with another update for you on my Week 6, and we’re still on that grind. I think at this stage, everything is about fine-tuning and just making sure the diet stays locked in, the training keeps intensity high, and the body keeps morphing into that clean, dry look without losing my strength wich would suck.
No drastic calorie drops, no starving my muscle right now I’m staying well fed while making adjustments to nutrient timing and some food sources to keep up performance and that recovery.
Calories: 3,300 this week I’m keeping it steady, no cuts.
Protein: 325g thistaying high to maintain lean mass)
Carbs: 275g/ I’m timing them around workouts mainly now
Fats: 80g always healthy sources for supporting my hormones and joint health that I need.
The goal this week here is refinement, not restriction. I am noticeably leaner, but the key is keeping strength and muscle fullness as I’m continuing to tighten up.
Here are a couple of recipes I want to share to show you how I’ve been keeping things fresh

Post-Workout power meal to reload strength:
8oz bison burger
1 cup jasmine rice (fast-digesting carbs for muscle fuel)
½ cup zucchini fries
1 tbsp grass-fed butter

Why bison? Why bison? Well bros bison is a game-changer for us bodybuilders, leaner than beef but just as protein-packed. Rice keeps the muscles full and strong, and zucchini fries add some crunch without trash macros.

Also here is my nighttime recovery meal:
1 cup cottage cheese
1 scoop casein protein in whole milk
2 tbsp natural peanut butter

Love that slow digesting protein to fuel muscle repair overnight, keeping me feeling full and anabolic while in my sleep.
Rather than cutting food for now I’m keeping calories steady and playing with meal timing just shifting carbs around workouts, adding more volume from fibrous veggies too.
No big drastic shifts, and for now no starving myself I’m just staying the course, refining the details, and keeping the intensity really high
I’m halfway through this cycle my Bros and still going full steam ahead
Please drop me your best high-protein, clean meal ideas for night time! You know I’m always looking for ways to keep this diet sharp without sacrificing any flavor.

Hey bro!

Awesome update, and I like your approach—just like me, I prefer having carbs around workouts too. Have you considered using fast-absorbing liquid carbs like Cluster Dextrin or cream of rice? Personally, they’ve been working great for me.

Cool idea with the bison—I’ll check if I can find it locally, but here in Switzerland, we don’t exactly have bisons grazing in our fields, lol.

Anyway, it’s great to see your discipline staying focused and determined.

You’re a true athlete!
