    I'm on the same calories with the ridiculous amount of carbs still. Jordan has increased my volume and got me doing 2x HIIT sessions a week which he says will burn calories and start the initial weigh loss. We will see though...

    Ahh yes! The good old phantom "do more" effect. This is why out of shape people initially lose a bit of weight just from training or exercise alone and not changing their eating habits. Of course, once you've adapted to that, you're fucked and thus need to lower calories.

    Somehow, I was under, but not significantly last week, I've dropped to 84.7kg these past couple of days. I am feeling pretty shitty, I'm hypothesising it's the cigarette cessation and maybe some repair process going on. I have been coughing up gunk at different periods throughout the last several days. Strength has taken a bit of a hit in the last 10 days or so. I could have AIDS.. But that's unlikely, given my complete lack of a sex life, and I'm not popular enough to get in about the recreational drug scene! :P

    Squats weight was a lot less than i could normally handle at this rep range but my body will still be trying to get used to the volume so it's no biggie.

    Aye I don't think the weight loss will last very long on the calories I'm on. I think I had to decrease my calories to 2700 to get down to 80kg last time.

    I'm sure itsjust the lack of cigarettes and nothing more serious! Sorry to hear you're not feeling great at the moment. I hope you're better soon and back to training 100%.
