Hi all,

This is part 1 of an introduction to my current cycle and training/diet log-

(I am a recreational lifter not a competing bodybuilder)

Testosterone 400 (blend) - 2x a week 800mg total

Anavar - 20mg daily pre workout

Will be increasing to 40mg daily in a week

Age: 30

Height: 5’10

Weight: 124kg

Body fat - Holding a fair amount of fat on my body currently due to over 12 months gym inactivity from a knee injury, especially around the abdomen. However I have lost 6 kg’s

of fat and water over the past month thanks to a strict Calorie deficit.

Aiming to lean down a lot whilst keeping muscle and hopefully adding some muscle if I am able to even in a deficit.

Very active/Hard labour job - Construction

Training: 4-5 times PW

Simple Split - Legs, Back-bi’s, Chest and tri’s, Shoulders (with arms again)

Rep range - 8-10 or to Failure

Former heavyweight boxer and boxing coach so body has naturally good movement and fitness level.

Diet - Calorie Deficit

Daily intake -
Cals: 3000
Protein: 250g

Average day -
Meal 1: 5 eggs, 1 cup of oats with 250ml of skim milk, tablespoon of chia seeds.

Meal2: 180g Tuna 4 thin rice cakes

Meal 3: Protein shake

Meal 4: 180g Tuna 4 thin rice cakes

Meal 5: 250g chicken breast or lean minced beef with winter veggies and 1 cup of white rice

Meal 6: Hi protein/Low cal yoghurt w/ blueberries and drizzle of honey

Supps: Hi strength Vitamin C, Mega Vitamin B complex, Multivitamin, Milk Thistle 42000, TUDCA 1100mg, Creatine

Being in the deficit for the last 2 Months or so I have felt pretty shitty in the gym (and sometimes out) even on a high dose of test and primo, however after starting the anavar im feeling 10x better (shoutout to Wildcat Labs) more energy, better performance in the gym etc.

Also since I started taking the TUDCA mostly to prepare for taking the anavar as it is still a 17AA no matter how mild on the liver people say it is, I feel like my sleep is better and have a good feeling of wellbeing.
Im expecting to hear some people say my Test dose is quite high but for me 800 is the sweet spot ive played around quite alot over the years with my Test dosages and I feel like 800 is where I sit best.

Anavar I have only just started this week so still taking 20mg pre workout, will be upping that to 40mg next week (20mg twice a day).

I was taking Primo for a little while however got some unwanted sides such as some hair loss so I have stopped using it which sucks cos primo is the bomb.

Will update the log as I go with progress etc.

Friday - Shoulders and arms

Today I had a weird start to the day regarding work so my meals were a bit scattered and mixed up, missed a meal but still ate well rest of the day and felt great in the gym today was one of the best sessions Ive had in weeks.

I upped my Anavar dosage to 30 mg (20mg with meal 2 and 10 mg pre workout) I was so pumped that I was smashing out reps and didnt wana leave the gym. Right Shoulder AC joint is playing up again (injury from a fight 12 years ago still getting pain here and there and not 100% ROM) and was getting pain during the day and still now at 10:30pm. Hurts when I extend my arm in a chest press movement. Need to monitor and warm up properly before training.



Meal 1: 7 am - Protein shake

Meal 2 : 2pm - 250g lean beef mince w/ 1 cup white rice and winter veggies. 2 litres of water

Meal 3: 5pm - (pre workout, needed some good carbs) 1 cup oats with 200ml skim milk, Tbs of Chia seeds, small amt of blueberries, Protein shake

(PW extras ) - Black coffee, 3g creatine, 1.5 litres of water.

Meal 4: 7:45pm - 6 pieces of chicken tenders, mash potato

Meal 5: 10:30pm - Low fat/cal yoghurt with handful of strawberries, drizzle of honey

TRAINING - Shoulders and Arms

Note - I did not go very heavy on shoulders today as I was concerned about right AC joint.
  1. Seated smith machine Shoulder press x4 sets - 70kg 8 reps
  2. Machine (free weight) Shoulder press - x4 sets - 2 plates each side, S1 - 10 reps, s2 - 8 reps, s3- 8 reps, s4 - 7 then paused and got another 3 out.
  3. Standing overhead press - (I realise that today I did alot of presses however I was really keen to smash my shoulders and especially the standing overhead to really get that full range of motion/extension on the reps. X4 sets - light weights only 12.5 kg plate each side. Reps varied as my front delts really started to fatigue and i was going to failure at around 6-7 reps.
  4. Cable side lateral raises x 4 sets 10-12 reps.
  5. Dumbell side raises x 3 sets 15kg DBs. 10 reps
  6. Tricep rope extensions - Did quite a lot but was not counting sets just smashing out reps for volume and going to failure then pausing and getting more out.
  7. Tricep pushdowns - 3 sets x 10 reps
  8. Barbell bicep curls - 30 kg barbell same as above, squeezing at top going to failure and then pausing and smashing out more.
  9. Dumbell curls 17.5kg - 4sets to failure on each, at this stage my biceps were so fatigued i was getting out whatever I could.


  • Any tips on shoulder AC joint recovery/treatment etc??
  • Advice and critique is very welcome I am keen and open to learn from the evo community 💪🏽
 
nice start to the log
don't push your shoulder joint it will only get worse if you hammer it
 
make sure you're getting up details of your diet and your training
be consistent with it and we will definitely follow you
 
very nice workout
make sure you're getting your leg day up soon
 
your shoulder already gets hit plenty on a usual workout doing your upper body
train your arms directly and train your chest directly but never your shoulders
 
No i havent im not well versed on peptides, what would be recommended?
@Blackout I suggest bpc157 and tb500 but can start with bpc157 solo and on cycle adding 25mg ostarine mk2866 would help too.

@Blackout thanks for coming back and sharing, what are you taking to recover? you doing high vitamins and C D NAC?

Would like to see detail about reps, sets, and most important the weights used. Without that we can't guide you.
@RoidRage69 I agree way more detail so we can see how strong @Blackout is getting but he was sick so not a good level to guage
 
good to hear your stamina is strong
 
you are a true man pushing it
 
nice work bro
 
you won't go wrong getting in your vitamins
 
Push the vitamin C when you're not feeling well
 
Thankyou for all the messages brothers appreciate the support, was vomiting a bit and had bad stomach cramps etc i suspect it couldve been either the anavar having it with not enough food in my stomach or something i ate that didnt agree. Sydney heat has been pretty severe this summer and when you are working outside concreting and digging trenches the heat just pummels you

As for supplements am taking the following daily:

TUDCA - 1100mg

Vit C - 1g

Vit B Complex

Vit B6 - 100mg (to try keep prolactin in check)

Milk thistle - 50,000

Performance multi vitamin

Will be adding arimidex to the intake this coming week and will take 0.5mg as needed if i feel E2 levels are creeping too high.

Also will be getting bloods done hopefully next weekend to see how all my levels are.

Appreciate the encouragement and messages of support I will add more detail to the training log such as weight and reps this week 💪🏽 💪🏽💪🏽

@Blackout let get arimidex in there very soon so your e2 doesnt spike. Do you have your estrogen bloods?

waiting on your training update

ADVICE NEEDED

RE: Telmisartan -

Considering adding Telmisartan for its potential Visceral fat loss properties as well as increased muscle endurance.

Anyone here with experience using it? If so what are your thoughts on its visceral fat loss ability and increased endurance from running it? aswell as dosages, frequency, other benefits, side effects etc etc

Please educate me 👌🏼
 
great work bro

@Blackout this is from my Telmisartan article I'm prepping for EVO (below) but I don't think it's been studied enough for use. I don't suggest using it, you're better off with cardarine gw imo.

Telmisartan is primarily an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) used in the management of hypertension. Beyond its cardiovascular effects, research has suggested potential benefits in visceral fat loss and increased muscle endurance, attributed to its unique actions on certain cellular pathways.

Visceral Fat Loss
PPAR-γ Activation: Telmisartan acts as a partial agonist of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPAR-γ). Activation of PPAR-γ influences fat metabolism and glucose homeostasis. This action can lead to improved insulin sensitivity and a reduction in visceral fat, as PPAR-γ is heavily involved in the differentiation of adipocytes (fat cells) and the regulation of lipid metabolism.
Angiotensin II Receptor Blockade: By blocking angiotensin II receptors, telmisartan reduces the effects of angiotensin II, a peptide that can contribute to fat accumulation and insulin resistance. This blockade might indirectly contribute to a reduction in visceral adiposity.

Increased Muscle Endurance
Mitochondrial Biogenesis: Telmisartan has been shown to increase the expression of genes related to mitochondrial biogenesis and function. Mitochondria are crucial for energy production in muscle cells, and enhancing their function can lead to increased muscle endurance.
Improved Insulin Sensitivity: Through its action on PPAR-γ and the blockade of angiotensin II receptors, telmisartan can improve insulin sensitivity, which plays a role in glucose uptake and utilization in muscle cells. Better glucose management supports muscle endurance during prolonged physical activity.

Brother I added 160mg telmisartan every day before bed 3 weeks ago and it has been life changing for me. Blood pressure down heaps and I feel like it improves endurance for me and I can go harder on heavy lifts for reps.
Can’t recommend it enough i love this medication 🙏
 
Even if you don’t already have high blood pressure it’s great to run as a preventative for heart health, it prevents left ventricle hypertrophy

Start with the articles we have
 
I added it for its intended purpose of lowering blood pressure and heart health and experienced other unexpected but good endurance and stamina gains. I would put this down to increased cardiovascular efficiency.

@LevButlerov brother that’s crazy i never new about the fat loss side of telmisartan im so sold on this now 😂

@average918 I dont think its for everyone but you can try it. I'll be doing a whole article on it, working it now.
 
Wat a day today absolutely scorching hot it was unbearable at times.

Definitely crushed my energy but nothing a pre-workout meal and double shot coffee wouldnt fix so i still got after it and just as you have it the air conditioning was broken in the gym so it was a deadset sweat pool.

Seated Incline press - 3 set
  1. 80lbs each side - 10 reps
  2. 90lbs each side x 8

Saturday - Legs/abs


Hitting legs twice a week at the moment with one of the days majority bodyweight. As i have a prior right knee injury (fully torn ACL and lateral meniscus) I need to perform alot of bodyweight and conditioning exercises to strengthen all the little areas around the bottom of my quads and hamstrings for support of the knee.

I absolutely hammered my legs today -

  1. 4 sets of Walking lunges 50metres and then straight into reverse lunges for about 3 minutes and then straight into the next set non stop - After about 200 lunges i stopped counting but most likely did around 400 all up with low to no rest
  2. 4 x strict concentrated hamstring curls on the seated machine - all sets at 85kg x 10 reps
  3. Standing Calf raises 90kg - 15 reps, 12 reps, 10 reps, 8reps
  4. Decline sit ups (strict and slow) x 4 sets x 20, 15, 12 and 8 reps


Meals today -
  1. 5 scrambled whole eggs + 1cup oats with skim milk and 3tbsp chia seeds, blueberries.
  2. 190g tuna with 5 thin rice crackers
  3. 300g chicken breast with broccoli/greens and 1cup white rice
  4. Greek low cal Yoghurt with handful strawberries drizzle of honey
  5. 190g tuna + 4 thin rice crackers
  6. Protein shake
