Trying my best one day at a timekeep up the good work man it looks like you're developing an impressive physique
I love doing them, i even lean back slightly and add a slight twist and really pull down from the elbow as low as i can go with them, and on the way up i do a slow full stretch, i get a great pump from these, i will see it i can get a video for you sometime when i do them.I've got to get a video of the one arm pull Downs I haven't seen that in a while
Its about the only thing going for me are the Italian genetics, i hope one day they carry me very far on the stage.those Italian genetics are working for you
That is my weakest link brother, i hope with doing belt squats alot and focusing on RDL it will in time make vast improvements, my upper body has always grown much faster than my lower body, either way we make the best of it and try to build something great.upper body looks terrific man make sure you bring up those legs too
I hope with this recomp i got coming up and then going into a hard cut that v shape will pop like crazyarms look massive and Vascular good job and you have a nice v-shape
I'm glad you are kicking ass on para Pharma products
can't wait for your next touchdown
I'm an open supporter of para pharma, clean gear, used them for years. @Noah Wixxthe majority of my results have come from para pharma and just think its been on low dose milder compounds, imagine when I get my hands on a little more advanced cycles.
I cant wait for my next touchdown from para pharma as well, para pharma just works and works extremely well at that, my photos are proof if you look from 2023 to current day 2024 night and day difference .
I feel especially with men's physique if i didnt train forearms it would make my body look imbalanced, i have bigger biceps, if i went into a show having really small forearms, it would create a situation in which judges would dock me points, as overall upper body is judged, im trying to create a good balance between bicep and forearm ratios, my logical could be off with that, my mindset believes it could be a con if i didnt train them, plus having stronger forearms has helped me alot when i go heavier with different movements.I love that Noah trains forearms
I absolutely love para pharmaI'm an open supporter of para pharma, clean gear, used them for years. @Noah Wixx
I didnt like the high mg/ml stuff, would not suggest it, but normal mg/ml like 200-250mgs is the best for testosterone (used test mainly).
Curious why your first meal is so late in the day ? Any reason for that ?Wednesday Nov 6 2024
@ugfreak
Push day focused on lower weight and slowing down the reps and really squeezing the muscles hard and creating a good pump.
Incase i haven't posted my current stats and goals in a while here they are.

Ive done so well with ugfreak and on para pharma from 2023 into 2024, maybe they will be gracious enough to help me out once again with a recomp cycle, you never know what is in the cards for the future, undoubtedly ive put in the sweat equity even changed gyms and have worked harder than i ever have before and pushed myself to the breaking points, para pharma and ugfreak have pushed me past every single barrier that has stood in my way, i am thankful, humble and grateful for ugfreak and para pharma accompanying me on my jounery towards the stage with men's physique and all the help and support with always having my back every step of the way, truly appreciate them more than words can describe.
Ugfreak and para took a chance on me in 2023 and it was my hope I didn't let them or myself down, i accomplished that and then some by coming through for myself and for them, which is something i am very proud of doing.

@Noah Wixx awesome work right here!Monday November 4 2024
@ugfreak
Today i decided i would focus more on the squeeze and hold instead of how heavy the weight is for my movements.
I somehow still hit a standing Ez-Bar Curl pr today, 15 reps is the most ive ever done so far this year with that bar.
Pump was absolutely excellent today, in other news coach has me upping cardio from 30 minutes into 45 minutes on both pull and push days and dropping down into 15 minutes on leg day.
The recomp my coach has planned is on the horizon at this point as my para pharma test & primo cycle will be ending at some point in the near future as i am on my last bottle of test & primo
Stayed consistent the whole cycle dosing test and primo at 300mg each for a total of 600mg

So you follow a 16-8 daily fast?Work schedule and i dont like to eat right away in the am or afternoon, i dont get hungry till later, so i choose toneat later in the day typically on my break at work, i feel weighted down if i eat to early in tje day or sluggish, not a fan of it honestly.
Never really calculated it like that brother, it would seem it plays out that way with my window and work, plus training and the times i can fit everything in.So you follow a 16-8 daily fast?
Since your recomping it's probably not too bad but if you're concerned about muscle gain I would highly suggest avoiding it and adding in a protein shake several times or at least take BCAA and glutamine.Never really calculated it like that brother, it would seem it plays out that way with my window and work, plus training and the times i can fit everything in.
I do too! I've used their gear for my last couple cycles and it's def top notch!! @ugfreak is awesome as well. Great customer service!!!I absolutely love para pharma
The coach has an entire plan for different stages we enter into, on training days he has me switching it up and doing one protein shake and 4 walnuts an hour before i train, forgot to mention that, non training day eating routine is as u posted it above.Since your recomping it's probably not too bad but if you're concerned about muscle gain I would highly suggest avoiding it and adding in a protein shake several times or at least take BCAA and glutamine.
Yeah gentz para gear and ugfreak service and kindness is always highly valued and much appreciated, have you notice this about para even day one injecting it you feel it hit like a train, you can feel the shift happen, atleast i can.I do too! I've used their gear for my last couple cycles and it's def top notch!! @ugfreak is awesome as well. Great customer service!!!
Yeah i agree its very potent and high quality in my experience, ive been trying to tell people with all my para logs how damn good it really is, im happy you agree and see the difference and feel the difference just like i do when u use it, how awesome is it to have ugfreak as a source with access to products like they carry.I don't feel day 1 but you can tell it's high quality. The NPP does hit hard. All of their orals are great too.
Products are the same whether domestic or international.
I've had domestic orals from other labs that are clearly different and not as good.
Para is my go to for the foreseeable future.
Dont worry about the time brother or how much you check in on my log, even if its just once and a while i appreciate you and the check in with me and my log.Man, I’m so far behind on this log! Hope you are doing well brother!! It’s been non stop here. Seems like I catch up. Should be able to come January. My daughter is getting married in December. And with all the stuff we’ve had going on and all of the holidays… I’m just way behind.

Keep crushing it to the end bro! We all have these days.. nothing wrong with a bit of a deload. Bet it feels good to be back. I love that first sore recovery back. You are killing it my dude. Keep your head up and finish strong.Thursday December 5 2024
@ugfreak
I hope everyone is doing well and in good health for the holiday season, i wanted to start out by saying i took a few weeks off with a deload, i also had to focus on getting my mind right.
My motivation and energy was lacking alot last few weeks, which leads me into my next order of business. I will be trying to run bloods next week monday or tuesday, it all depends on appointment availability.
Only thing is im not happy about shelling out over 400 dollars to lab corp for it lol.
Ive been working on getting out of this mental rut i find myself in. I am two days back into the gym, trying to refocus.
I am nearly finished with my para pharma cycle, not many injections left at this point.

I appreciate the motivation and kind words brother, this time around seems to be a bit harder than the first time, its been a bit of a struggle towards the end of the cycle.Keep crushing it to the end bro! We all have these days.. nothing wrong with a bit of a deload. Bet it feels good to be back. I love that first sore recovery back. You are killing it my dude. Keep your head up and finish strong.
Increase the test and ai. Maybe you’re just a little out of whack with your bloods.I appreciate the motivation and kind words brother, this time around seems to be a bit harder than the first time, its been a bit of a struggle towards the end of the cycle.
Looking back at your cycle, what gear you on now? are you still using testosterone and primobolan? @Noah WixxI appreciate the motivation and kind words brother, this time around seems to be a bit harder than the first time, its been a bit of a struggle towards the end of the cycle.
Yeah 1:1 ratio 300/300 600 a week total i have a few injections left before cycle is officially over.Looking back at your cycle, what gear you on now? are you still using testosterone and primobolan? @Noah Wixx
Forgot to say test and primo yesLooking back at your cycle, what gear you on now? are you still using testosterone and primobolan? @Noah Wixx
Yeah 1:1 ratio 300/300 600 a week total i have a few injections left before cycle is officially over.
Check back at the discussion with @AE1079 and @Eddie Haskell they are talking about estradiol being low with primobolan use long term.Forgot to say test and primo yes
This cycle wasn't my best showing brother i will be upfront about that, i screwed up at the start by ordering testosterone in 400mg/ml had to reorder and switch it back down into the 250mg/ml, at one point i injected into my delt like ive done 100s of times before. Somehow it got infected, had to cycle off for a brief time let the antibiotics run its course, originally was running eq with my cycle, dropped that, added in tbol for 5 weeks instead, so i ended up running testosterone at 300mg a week Primo at 300mg a week and 10mg of tbol a week, lots didnt go right for me this time around and all of it was my fault, wether it was the high concentrations with a backwards logic on less is better, pinning to much gear into a small muscle learned the hard way on that, and bow possibilities of crashed E2, not alot worked right in my favor, at the end of the day i learned valuable lessons to not repeat in the future, and i can educate others based on my experiences.Check back at the discussion with @AE1079 and @Eddie Haskell they are talking about estradiol being low with primobolan use long term.
I wrote an article on this as well. I was checking your log back 70 pages you've been on primobolan at this dose for too long from the looks of it. I would cycle off at this point of time.
Yeah its been pretty bad for me for a few weeks now and i cant seem to shake it engery wise and mood wise, plus trying to stay dialed in has been more difficult for me than it ever has.Maybe you should change up your training of your getting frustrated? Cut back on volume or increase volume not sure what style you're doing now. I do know that for me a change is sometimes the best thing to get out of a mental rut.
Mmmmm primo!! I can’t wait to try that someday.Forgot to say test and primo yes
Man before my doc started me on trt, she put me on an AI. We ended up crashing my estrogen and I was all messed up. A ex gf lost a son in a car accident and was struggling with that as he was my daughter’s age and I cared about him. But it was hard to deal with life and have the low Estrogen.

Im in a tough spot here because im supposed to be runnia bridge here very shortly of test,npp,mast,proviron but if e2 is crashed mast even at 100mg might not be wise, i dont know need to run bloods see what is going on, all i know is for 3 weeks + my mental health has been suffering pretty badly, i just keep trying to push through it and not quit to reach my goals, i am 100% struggling and im ok to admit that.
The time change and winter settling in has been hard on us here. It’s been harder to get out of bed and get moving. Lots going on this time of year.Yeah its been pretty bad for me for a few weeks now and i cant seem to shake it engery wise and mood wise, plus trying to stay dialed in has been more difficult for me than it ever has.
Just doing my normal 3 days a week push pull legs.
For all exercises this is my breakdown

Well i have them scheduled for February 28th only time i can get in, fully covered by insurance, if i go to lab corp i have to pay 500 out of pocket and i could get in anytime i wanted, with xmas and bills and daily living expenses im like fuck do i really want to spend 500 dollars on bloodwork or do i wait and push it back, coach wants it done asap because we need to see where i am at marker wise after my current cycle since its basically almost over.Man before my doc started me on trt, she put me on an AI.

Hang in there. Don’t always need to follow a routine to the T! I agrée maybe less volume. You’re a big volume guy. Cut out extra accessories maybe see what your 1 rep max is on you r compound exercises! That could be fun!! Might give you some inspiration. U hit some spotters at your gym ask what they do In Times like this. I’m confident you’ll get through this!

Do you have one of the lights you can put in next to u daily it’s got the spectrum of light you need to help mood. Seasonal affective disorder. It might help some. My step mom. Had issues when they moved to SE Alaska days are shorter in winter. Really helped her. I think those are cheaper to get a personal size these days. While I wait for Feb 28th. Too bad money doesn’t grow on trees right?Yeah i live in a location that gets really cold during winter so it adds a level of stress and depression lack of sun as well.
Do it Noah!!!!Ive thought about it because from a bodybuilding standpoint i am decently strong on low mg cycles makes me wounder sometimes.
Yeah I hear that man. I’m supposed to get mine every 4 months and my insurance hasn’t changed yet I’m all of the sudden getting charged every time.

Honestly, managing my estrogen is one of the most challenging things about TRT and cycling. I can really tell when it’s too high if my sex drive is low. And for me, I found that seems to be the easiest way for me to know if I need to take an extra .5 MG of anastrozole. But that’s just me. Last bloods, my estrogen was perfect so I was happy about that. But it is very challenging to know between bloodwork.Many times TRT doctors don’t know much at all
I was talking to @AE1079 the other day and we saw here in the family both estrogen crashes and spikes from primbolan
Crashing estrogen is terrible for mood
But high estrogen is even worse
So it’s a balancing act
I needed that laugh right now, i truly must say thank you for making me laugh, been shitty for me for weeks mentally, i needed the supportDo it Noah!!!!i always say why have big ass muscles if they ain’t strong?
Levelling doses out will help, your next cycle looks like what?Honestly, managing my estrogen is one of the most challenging things about TRT and cycling.

U make a vaild point i cant even argue that one you are correct.I would use a credit card and spend the cash, worth it for your health man![]()
I put money on it my estrogen is probably low, ive run primobolan for my last two cycles my body is probably just telling me i need a break from gear possibly and bloods need done, could be my body might need some off time to recover and nust drop into a trt dose of 100-125mg a week, not sure just thoughts i have, before bloods that will tell the full storyline.Many times TRT doctors don’t know much at all

Don’t want to hijack Noah’s thread. But I’m looking to put one together here soon. Another bulk. Likely run Nandrolone, TestC, dbol, maybe add Proviron, and for sure an ai. Speaking of my log… I need to go update. HahaLevelling doses out will help, your next cycle looks like what?
So we know how to get estrogen down, but what’s the best way to get it up??I put money on it my estrogen is probably low, ive run primobolan for my last two cycles my body is probably just telling me i need a break from gear possibly and bloods need done, could be my body might need some off time to recover and nust drop into a trt dose of 100-125mg a week, not sure just thoughts i have, before bloods that will tell the full storyline.
I don’t think there is a “need break from gear” moment with your low dose cycles, but, yes, I think you should be switching compounds and investing into blood work.I put money on it my estrogen is probably low, ive run primobolan for my last two cycles my body is probably just telling me i need a break from gear possibly and bloods need done, could be my body might need some off time to recover and nust drop into a trt dose of 100-125mg a week, not sure just thoughts i have, before bloods that will tell the full storyline.
Getting estrogen up is easy, pin testosterone no Ai no serm no primo no masteron.So we know how to get estrogen down, but what’s the best way to get it up??
The science says it’s directly proportional to testosterone due to the body naturally converting test into estrogen. So if you reduce any ai and increase your testosterone dose, shouldn’t your estrogen increase?
Hope some vets can chime in on this.
Why dbol? How lean are you? % bodyfat nowDon’t want to hijack Noah’s thread. But I’m looking to put one together here soon. Another bulk. Likely run Nandrolone, TestC, dbol, maybe add Proviron, and for sure an ai. Speaking of my log… I need to go update. Haha
That’s what I thought.Getting estrogen up is easy, pin testosterone no Ai no serm no primo no masteron.![]()
This cycle wasn't my best showing brother i will be upfront about that, i screwed up at the start by ordering testosterone in 400mg/ml had to reorder and switch it back down into the 250mg/ml, at one point i injected into my delt like ive done 100s of times before. Somehow it got infected, had to cycle off for a brief time let the antibiotics run its course, originally was running eq with my cycle, dropped that, added in tbol for 5 weeks instead, so i ended up running testosterone at 300mg a week Primo at 300mg a week and 10mg of tbol a week, lots didnt go right for me this time around and all of it was my fault, wether it was the high concentrations with a backwards logic on less is better, pinning to much gear into a small muscle learned the hard way on that, and bow possibilities of crashed E2, not alot worked right in my favor, at the end of the day i learned valuable lessons to not repeat in the future, and i can educate others based on my experiences.
Im in a tough spot here because im supposed to be runnia bridge here very shortly of test,npp,mast,proviron but if e2 is crashed mast even at 100mg might not be wise, i dont know need to run bloods see what is going on, all i know is for 3 weeks + my mental health has been suffering pretty badly, i just keep trying to push through it and not quit to reach my goals, i am 100% struggling and im ok to admit that.
I would use a credit card and spend the cash, worth it for your health man![]()
@Noah Wixx use a credit card, do the test now, just limit the testing to Estrogen Prolactin and Testosterone, 3 things you need to test. Other parts of the bloods can wait. I agree with @Eddie HaskellU make a vaild point i cant even argue that one you are correct.
Coach wants all bloods needed so that is the extra cost brother, with labcorp tests are separate.I don’t think there is a “need break from gear” moment with your low dose cycles, but, yes, I think you should be switching compounds and investing into blood work.
I don’t understand, Why is it $500 to test estrogen? You can test test/estrogen for about $100-150.
If i only test those 3 things it would be super cheap could probably toss in a prolactin test, i figure the cbc would be the most important test with me running gear panting bigger picture@Noah Wixx use a credit card, do the test now, just limit the testing to Estrogen Prolactin and Testosterone, 3 things you need to test.

Don't waste time now, book the test for Monday and do it, it's worth the money. I just looked through about 50 pages, you for sure might have low-estrogen.If i only test those 3 things it would be super cheap could probably toss in a prolactin test, i figure the cbc would be the most important test with me running gear panting bigger picture
It feels like i could that was my best guess or possibility of organ straining which is leading into me feeling tired or brunt out, wont jump to any conclusion until i see bloodworkDon't waste time now, book the test for Monday and do it, it's worth the money.

You have liver pains? or lower back pains? Those would be something you'd feel.It feels like i could that was my best guess or possibility of organ straining which is leading into me feeling tired or brunt out, wont jump to any conclusion until i see bloodwork
Just a slight strain feeling on the front of the body, lower part righthand side, nothing crazy but just feels a nit strainedz hard to explain, slightest of aches, not a muscle ache, but a small nagging ache here and there.You have liver pains? or lower back pains? Those would be something you'd feel.
Probably related to your low estrogen, you're too dry. Or right side is liver, liver or estrogen if I had to guess.Just a slight strain feeling on the front of the body, lower part righthand side, nothing crazy but just feels a nit strainedz hard to explain, slightest of aches, not a muscle ache, but a small nagging ache here and there.
Yeah that's my beat guess as well, im booking and appointment for labcorp tomorrow and going to try and get in this Monday Tuesday or at the latest hopefully friday if they have openings, before i run my bridge cycle i got to make sure everything is good to go, because if i see flags, im gonna hold off till its sorted out.Probably related to your low estrogen, you're too dry.

Why do you need your free testosterone?Yeah that's my beat guess as well, im booking and appointment for labcorp tomorrow and going to try and get in this Monday Tuesday or at the latest hopefully friday if they have openings, before i run my bridge cycle i got to make sure everything is good to go, because if i see flags, im gonna hold off till its sorted out.
Im gonna run
Comprehensive Metabolic Panel
Complete Blood Count
Free Test
Total Test
Estradiol
Shbg
I dont think im missing anything i was gonna run a ldl/hdl test, coach said it wasn't needed at this time, which is fine. I have covered insurance complete bloodwork coming up on February 28 as well, so bloods will be done fully twice pretty close in time to one another.
That is the usable testosterone and im curious what my numbers will be on 300mg of test, also it is included in the testosterone test.Why do you need your free testosterone?
And is the metabolic panel liver? I don’t see it there.
The complete metabolic panel tests Alt and Ast so liver is covered. They do hage and independent liver test i think i could order.Why do you need your free testosterone?
And is the metabolic panel liver? I don’t see it there.
I was under the impression you’re on a budget, and free testosterone will tell you very little in your caseThat is the usable testosterone and im curious what my numbers will be on 300mg of test, also it is included in the testosterone test.
That is how they get u, i can run just a total testosterone test but that is all it will test.
If i get the complete testosterone test, it tests, total test, free test and shbg in one test.
Thats the issue with independent lab companies they include or exclude certain tests so u have to make sure u pick the right ones
Its either total testosterone test or solo testosterone test, the full testosterone test that includes shbg, the solo testosterone test doesnt include shbg, correct i am on a budget, all those tests total is 286 dollarsI was under the impression you’re on a budget, and free testosterone will tell you very little in your case
In that case with shbg it’s worth it.Its either total testosterone test or solo testosterone test, the full testosterone test that includes shbg, the solo testosterone test doesnt include shbg, correct i am on a budget, all those tests total is 286 dollars
Yeah unfortunately lesser or two evils here, since the bridge upcoming has proviron in it, be interesting to compare shbg now, vs with proviron with February bloods.In that case with shbg it’s worth it.![]()
did you book your bloodwork?Yeah unfortunately lesser or two evils here, since the bridge upcoming has proviron in it, be interesting to compare shbg now, vs with proviron with February bloods.
Yeah i did i also found a 10% off coupon for labcorp, original total was 311 dollars got it for 260 dollars, every test i needed to aquire and run, is booked for Monday, December 23rddid you book your bloodwork?
wondering the cost.
Don’t know about the dryness mr. Would but true liver on the right side. You’re right cmp covers all the labs well not test estrogen stuff. But gives a good look. So hard on a budget just to get some Insight that’s useful will be of help. I’ll pray for the best Noah!Probably related to your low estrogen, you're too dry.

I always appreciate the prayer's and thoughtfulness it helps when things seem darker than usual, this last month or so, something major is off, my whole personality has flipped, from irritation, being mad over stupid little things, moldy, just not who i know i am, what i am right now isn't who i want to be, before anything else, blood work, i need to know what has caused the my regression from a mood stand point, typically im motivated happy to help, involved and im different right now, so hopefully we can pinpoint the issue fix it and i can be my old self again and get dialed back, i think i accidentally crashed my estrogen with some mild organ strain sprinkled ontop, judt been rough go, either way we push on and get through it, learn from it, fix it and teach others along the way.Don’t know about the dryness mr.

It’s good you recognize that you feel off. Anxiety can really screw with people. And messing with hormones probably don’t help either. They affect mood for sure. So it’s good that you are trying to keep your PEDs and such to minimal doses as a rule. Cuz this shot can mess with peeps who are sensitive to hormonal changes. Hopeful you find answers for your own peace of mind my friend. But if you don’t please stay strong and don’t get discouraged don’t let it rule you! You’ll pull though it.I always appreciate the prayer's and thoughtfulness it helps when things seem darker than usual, this last month or so, something major is off, my whole personality has flipped, from irritation, being mad over stupid little things, moldy, just not who i know i am, what i am right now isn't who i want to be, before anything else, blood work, i need to know what has caused the my regression from a mood stand point, typically im motivated happy to help, involved and im different right now, so hopefully we can pinpoint the issue fix it and i can be my old self again and get dialed back, i think i accidentally crashed my estrogen with some mild organ strain sprinkled ontop, judt been rough go, either way we push on and get through it, learn from it, fix it and teach others along the way.
I will forever be a supportive person of the most minimalistic effective doses with my protocols, i grow just fine on small amounts, i dont believe in the whole u need x amount or its a waste, look how far ive grown on just two primo and test cycles in one year never went above 700mg, high doses arent for me tried it didnt like it, messed me up more than helped me out, i went backwards wasting time that way.It’s good you recognize that you feel off.
