In early March, my weights had stalled and wasn't progressing fast at all. Once I added an extra 1500-2000 calories per day, the numbers took off!
Looking at my best performance at the highest weights during each respective period, here's what I'd found for the following exercises:
DB Incline Bench: November - 60# x 8 March - 80# x 8 (+33% in 5 months) May - 120# x 5 (+50% more in just 2 months)
** 200% increase in 7 months **
DB Flat Bench: November - 80# x 10 March - 100# x 8 (+25% in 5 months) May - 130# x 10 (+30% more in just 2 months)
** 163% increase in 7 months **
BB Bench: November - 90# x 8 March - 115# x 12 (+28% in 5 months) May - 160# x 5 (+39% more in just 2 months)
** 178% increase in 7 months **
I couldn't do 1 rep on barbell bench press @ 135# in March... now, I'm pushing 135# for 12 reps!
These were my least favorite lifts because I was so weak and struggled so much. Now they're my favorites!
So, yes, calories and especially the carbs have clearly made a HUGE difference in my workouts!
I'm still really low on the weight, but with the recent increases, it's motivating me to keep pushing those numbers up! 💪🏻
