I’m trying very hard to get carbs that low haha223 on protein and 123 on fats thats good you're almost ketogenic
try to cut carbs even more to around 50 and keep fats around 120-150 to go ketogenic
Food for the day;
Nothing too different here today as the meals have been prepped for the week mostly. I’ll swap food around weekly rather than daily as it is much easier for consistency.
First meal was 5 eggs and half an avocado
Lunch was the prepped satay chicken with rice
Third meal was yoghurt, walnuts and wpi shake.
Dinner, trusty rib eye steak and steamed green vegetables![]()
Total cals 2292
Protein 223
Carbs 98
Fats 223
Need to come up with another meal for breakfast that’s high in protein and good fats. Don’t really want many carbs at all with this meal as I aim to get the carbs for the day around lunch. Don’t get me wrong I love the eggs but would be beneficial nutrition wise to swap things up now and then.
@Allupfromhere back looks great but sunburned, you ok?So haven’t updated the last two days, haven’t trained, diet has still been ok but not as tight as it should be. Finished up with my full time job for the year and booked in some private work to top up the funds before Christmas. Well had a huge day in the heat going full steam to get the job done in two days. Firstly it fucked up my eating schedule lol and second I got burnt like fuck and ended up with heat stroke. Couldn’t train that afternoon as I was proper wrecked, still had to get back the next day and get the job finished even though I was fucking cooked. So back in yesterday to finish things off and I wasn’t in good shape, could hardly eat when I got home definitely couldn’t train if I tried just needed rest.
Ended up sleeping 14 hrs and woke up this morning completely different, felt good again. Had another private job booked in so eating was scattered. Had to get the wifey a Christmas present from the shopping centre and tried to find anything somewhat healthy food. Found some chicken and salad bowl and got some extra grilled chicken. Crazy how many people destroy themselves with kfc, McDonalds and deep fried shit, good reminder to never get back to those old habits. I’ll post a pic of the sunburn I copped on the first day and the food I was able to find.View attachment 65414

Now I was trying to play catch up for the workouts missed last 2 days and decided to move to a ppl split. Honestly really enjoyed swapping this up like this and feel I might keep this spilt moving forward until I cycle. Will see how I go and progress maybe even continue this spilt on my cycle.

Went for 170 today, pulled it off the hooks and the weight felt ok. Got down and as I went to pull it back up I felt a pinch in the lower back. Left it on the arms and unloaded it there. Was nervous to unclip my belt but wasn’t as bad as I thought. Still uncomfortable but was able to continue the workout. I opt for rack pulls over deadlift as I have a half bulged l4-l5 from a work accident 10 years back and going all the way down with deads is a little risky, fingers crossed it’s only uncomfortable today.

Getting absolutely dicked down with small little injuries but glad the work year is over and I’m back in day shift from the 6thThank you my brother!
Hope you not getting banging yourself up too much brother @CypherOCE noticed in your log some injuries were lurking the doorstep. Take care of yourself brother I really enjoy following your journey ya weapon![]()
We will always make time bro haha, plenty of gains left in 6 weeks legend and on the bright side you get to look forward to the next cycle hahaGetting absolutely dicked down with small little injuries but glad the work year is over and I’m back in day shift from the 6thjust have to find a new training time since I can’t do it at 10am anymore
gotta stay on the wagon for another 5/6 weeks then call it a day and get the nuts working again![]()
sourdough is yeast free so perfect brotherYeah the first lower for the week is more quad focused and the second will be hamstring glute focused. Thanks brother
Wholegrain sourdough, I hardly ever incorporate bread into my nutrition, so I one off surely couldn’t hurt lol.
add a scoop of protein to that yogurt brotherView attachment 66490
Some yoghurt and berries for the afternoon
Love this.So this log is nearing the end of this chapter and I will be starting a new one very soon.
A few things over the time of my journey so far I would like to touch on and acknowledge.
Did I get to the 15%bf I set out to before my first cycle, No.
Have I stayed consistent with training and diet the whole time? I’m saying yes. There was only one week where my training suffered and that was due to a slight injury and chose the rest and recover then to risk further setbacks.
Nutrition wise there was days here and there where I wouldn’t hit my exact macro numbers but there was never a time where I blew out on cheat meals, never did I eat fast foods or drink alcohol and my recent blood test reflected this consistency where all my health markers were on the money whilst on a trt dose of 200mg test e per week. Will be getting more bloods as soon as I’m back just to make sure everything is still in check and good to go.
Now for some points and decisions people may disagree with.
Will I be doing just test for my first cycle, no.
Firstly the aim of my cycle will still be focused on recomposition. Though, as I will be passed the main summer period here in Aus and will be moving into the new year I would like to favour building muscle and let the diet clean up the fat loss as we go, instead of trying to specifically ‘cut’ right now. I will utilise the whole year too lean out steadily before the following summer.
Bloods be done monthly to keep a close eye on health and identify negative changes early.
Cycle is;
Weeks 1-6 Test e/Mast e
Week 6 onwards will be adding NPP
Week 10 onwards will add in anavar
Welcome discussions on dosages.
16 weeks in total.
Excited to say I will be working with @ODINLABS for the next log to help him showcase his compounds and service as a vendor and welcome his assistance and supply with the cycle. I know the Aussie community is excited to see @ODINLABS
Gear in full swing!
Moving forward from this I will be staying on self trt of 100-150mg per week. Dosage will depend on bloods and where my markers sit best.
I’m chosing the trt route as I’m 35 years old I already have 2 beautiful children with absolutely no thought of having any more, a mutual decision in my relationship just too add lol, and I have only felt day and night better since being on test as far as energy, well being, strength and me as father/husband. Not being tired and lethargic all the time and able to be more personally present when I am home due to this.
As always, welcome any opinions, advice and discussions! Sorry for the long post but the log is apart of the entire journey![]()
Thank you my brother! 2025 gonna be a serious year! HahaLove this.
Stellar commitment to the grind bro. You have smashed it.
You might not have gotten the BF % but I’d dare say if the next year you’ll hit it and come summer time you’ll have all the right tools in the nailbag to give it another red hot crack.

- Each day is roughly 5-6 different exercises with 3 warm up sets for each different area of the muscle group beginning with light weight and high reps, with weights increasing and reps decreasing as warm up sets are completed, and 2 working sets each to failure. Sets are 6-10 reps and bigger compound exercises are 4-8 reps each working set. Each workout would swap between a compound then an isolation movement throughout. Every session begins with 10-15 mins of liss cardio just to heat the body up.
Supplements:
- Daily Caloric Intake: around 2500cal currently with slight weekly increase if weight is still coming down and genuine hunger is still present.
- Macronutrient Split: 40/40/20 protein, carbs, fats. 200g protein per day currently.
Meal Plan: try to list 2-3 different meal options for each
- Breakfast: glass of water, pink Himalayan salt and lemon spin wake up every morning. Smoothie; 50g oats, 50g blueberries, 50g pineapple, 50g mango, 10g natural honey and 2 scoops of wpi.
- Snack: 100g beef jerky, apple, Nutrigrain bar
- Lunch: 220g chicken breast in a wrap with leafy greens and 5g low cal aoli
- Snack: 1 scoop wpi, kiwi fruit, 70g tuna
- Dinner: 250g beef eye fillet, 200g carb lite potato and 100g green vegetables mostly broccoli and 100ml of organic orange juice.
Blood Work:
- Super greens powder each morning, Intra workout before workout as I train at 3.30 am and pre workout when needed. Omega 3 tablets daily and magnesium and sleep support daily.
Cycle Plan:
- Recent Blood Work: None
- Will do pre,mid and post when ready to cycle
- Cycle Goals: recomp
- Compounds Planned for Use: Test E
- Dosage and Frequency: 250mg weekly to start
- Cycle Length: possibly 16-20
- Post Cycle Therapy (if applicable): not sure
Background story:
Was 110kg at the start of the year decided to get back in the gym and have a proper shot at getting back into shape. Got down to 100kg but didn’t really have a structured strategy so I began to work with a coach who set my diet and training plan. Was at 30% body fat at the start of coaching and currently at 91kg and would say I’m somewhere between 18-25% body fat, have another scan next week for more accurate update. Four weeks left until I move on with working with current coach not that it hasn’t been super effective and enjoyable but the cost long term isn’t really affordable. I have been looking at other coaches though to keep moving forward. Really want to get under 15% before potentially introducing hormones with the end goal of getting to 10% before 2025. So, interested in people’s opinions on whether or not I even have any business considering getting on gear at this stage or should I continue the natty path for now until I lose more weight or even just continue to try and make what progress I can naturally as a 35 yr old male? Don’t hold back say it how it is as I’m hoping to educate myself as much as I can from peoples experience cheers!

Looks like a very interesting dish.
The cycle overall seems long I understand but compound are being added at different times to see how I react with each introductionI think that's a good layout for your cycle.
You sure though, you want to go 16 weeks?

Phuck yeah that looks mad. This state in the suburbs is a far cry from the scenery I'm spoilt with. Went Altona beach yesterday for a cool off. Laid in the water for about 3 hour's until I was shivering. I got wheels now so gonna be getting out abit koz the built up shit, if your around that only and don't get out in that real nature. Your fully phucked!So headed off today at 4am. So no workout but the wifey and kids were keen for an arvo hike after the 12hr drive to stretch the legs.

@Allupfromhere awesome work right here!So this log is nearing the end of this chapter and I will be starting a new one very soon.
A few things over the time of my journey so far I would like to touch on and acknowledge.
Did I get to the 15%bf I set out to before my first cycle, No.
Have I stayed consistent with training and diet the whole time? I’m saying yes. There was only one week where my training suffered and that was due to a slight injury and chose the rest and recover then to risk further setbacks.
Nutrition wise there was days here and there where I wouldn’t hit my exact macro numbers but there was never a time where I blew out on cheat meals, never did I eat fast foods or drink alcohol and my recent blood test reflected this consistency where all my health markers were on the money whilst on a trt dose of 200mg test e per week. Will be getting more bloods as soon as I’m back just to make sure everything is still in check and good to go.
Now for some points and decisions people may disagree with.
Will I be doing just test for my first cycle, no.
Firstly the aim of my cycle will still be focused on recomposition. Though, as I will be passed the main summer period here in Aus and will be moving into the new year I would like to favour building muscle and let the diet clean up the fat loss as we go, instead of trying to specifically ‘cut’ right now. I will utilise the whole year too lean out steadily before the following summer.
Bloods be done monthly to keep a close eye on health and identify negative changes early.
Cycle is;
Weeks 1-6 Test e/Mast e
Week 6 onwards will be adding NPP
Week 10 onwards will add in anavar
Welcome discussions on dosages.
16 weeks in total.
Excited to say I will be working with @ODINLABS for the next log to help him showcase his compounds and service as a vendor and welcome his assistance and supply with the cycle. I know the Aussie community is excited to see @ODINLABS
Gear in full swing!
Moving forward from this I will be staying on self trt of 100-150mg per week. Dosage will depend on bloods and where my markers sit best.
I’m chosing the trt route as I’m 35 years old I already have 2 beautiful children with absolutely no thought of having any more, a mutual decision in my relationship just too add lol, and I have only felt day and night better since being on test as far as energy, well being, strength and me as father/husband. Not being tired and lethargic all the time and able to be more personally present when I am home due to this.
As always, welcome any opinions, advice and discussions! Sorry for the long post but the log is apart of the entire journey![]()
Thank you brother!@Allupfromhere awesome work right here!
Enjoy the holiday bro! And @ODINLABS is a quality lab from all reports I have heard Outside of the forum. 2025!Just thought I would touch base, not much as far as workouts as I’m away with the family on a holiday but still behaving. Food has been generally clean and steps have been right up as we’re are exploring everyday. Been a nice time for some mental rest and some slight deload. Super keen to get straight back to business when I’m home as a have enormous plans and huge goals in 2025. Major excitement to be working with @ODINLABS to kickstart the year and showcase his lab and products. Hope everyone is enjoying their Christmas break!

beautiful place broSo back from my 2 week holiday yesterday and used today to reset and unpack, sort things around the house and then it’s back to business as usual tomorrow. As one chapter comes to an end the next comes to a new beginning, I learnt a lot in 2024 about myself, diet, training and my bodies response to the amalgamation of all of them. I know what I want to achieve in 2025 and I know what direction I’m heading in, thanks to everyone who followed my journey thus far I appreciate all the support and advice! I promise my next log is going to be something worth following!! Little snap of my and my daughter at one of our favourite places we visited.
