Finally back after a week and a half MIA. Nothing feels better than to be back at home in the gym

Figured I would probably lose some strength gains, so I kept my calories consistent the past week.. I do look a bit flatter, but my weight didn't fluctuate much and stayed relatively stable. Ended up surprising myself today at the gym

PR'ed 405 x 4 for deadlifts, and 5th rep lost my grip, (tried a narrower stance today and a stronger hip hinge) not too bad for my first day back...

seems like the week and a half off break turned into an involuntary deload period for me which played out pretty well
