Tell me why?

This is going to sound like a joke, but tell me why i got the most animal style workout and set a PR on both flat and decline bench after eating McDonalds as my pre-workout meal... I had a screw up/cheat thing.. ended up pounding down McDonalds like it was going out of style ( and it did 15 years ago). Still took AP.... Ate MickyDs... an hour later i felt super guilty.. luckly my gym partner just got off work.. so i got him to hit the gym with me... we pounded down our Jack3d... got in there.. and i just started going animal on the weights... Swet everywhere.. my stamina was ridiculous. and i squeezed out like 10 more pounds over my previous PR

Off of McDonalds?>? wtf... normally i would have a good amount of carbs and light amount of protein with my BCAA pills.... this time all i did was eat McDonalds and i dominated the gym... It was ridiculous and it made me say WTF... kind of thinking of eating McDonalds on my gym days now haha. probably just a fluke though.

hmm..well, since you were feeling guilty, think that had anything to do with fueling the mental aspect? i.e., damn, I better take it up a notch in this workout to burn off the crap I just ate.

like you said, probably just a fluke.

if you want tho, start making MickeyD's your daily preWO fare, and let us know how that works out for you..

mickey d's is great for putting the weight on i ate it for a long time and went from a skinny 175 to a huge 240.....wait a minute.....that was the bad huge unless you like whales. i don't think you want to do that but let me know how it works.

Actually it could have been the high calories and the amount of sodium you consumed. In powerlifting a lot of lifters super saturate before the meet because the water retention gives the muscles better leverage for strength. Also the amount of calories prolly gave you a reserve of energy. What does your pre workout meal usually consist of?
