Thanks @LevButlerov appreciate you compliments.Abs really came in nicely even moreyou are going to kill it! @ssgjpd you look really good!
They are trueThanks @LevButlerov appreciate you compliments.
Yes because you were depleted, started pumping the metabolic rate and filling you out.Crazy how adding more food brought the abs out and dropped my weight. Down to wake up weight of 171.8.
Thanks again.They are true@ssgjpd I respect all guys stepping on stage, not easy to do, and bodybuilders should have more love and respect.

Body still looks leans for this morning check in
Looking RIPPED! I have never been anywhere close to that. I don’t even know what it would be like. How it would feel, how much I’d weigh. Nothing. You’re inspiring me. Maybe I’ll try it one daysecond tan applied

How long do you think you can hold that?
That poses? About 45 seconds to a minute then I will reset.How long do you think you can hold that?
Like, how long can you maintain your stage physique, it’s just like, a day, huh? Or there’s a range if you get it just right. I really don’t know, I just listen to some podcasts.That poses? About 45 seconds to a minute then I will reset.
Not sure, we actually went down in weight from last week while increasing food.Like, how long can you maintain your stage physique, it’s just like, a day, huh? Or there’s a range if you get it just right. I really don’t know, I just listen to some podcasts.
you refeeding
your body is sucking in the calories and really upping the metabolic rateNot sure, we actually went down in weight from last week while increasing food.
After tomorrow I start a reverse phase then we will take and offseason to put on some tissue.
This is all new to me as well and I just listen to my coach. We have a great venue together and he listens to me on who my body is feeling and makes adjustments.


Love these pics and love your resultsI had a blast this past weekend and it has been a great time. From my first prep to stepping on stage the first time, to making huge improvements in my look in one week for the next show, I must say it has been a blast.
I really enjoy this and look forward to this "health and growing time" as we prepare for next year. Never did I think I was going to be able to get the look I have in such a short order (Oct 2024). Especially with someone that has never trained this way. I was always more of a Crossfit style person, up until the old joints gave in.
I am hooked, every thing about it fits me to a T. I love the structure, the plan and honestly I love the meal prepping.
Here is the updated stage pictures from this past weekend.

I would like to try and stay some leanish, but feedback was we needed to grow the upper. This we knew, however my coach has it drawn out, I will follow as he has not lead me wrong thus far.

Once I get back, I will do labs again to see how things are and then we are going full send on adding tissue.@ssgjpd good log close, like a true champion
but lets move to your new phase, what is the new phase now for the new Log health or growth? like starting next week. IMO should be growth.
@Mobster I really enjoyed it, I did not think I was going to as I stress and get anxiety over how people perceives me. This helped a ton and looking forward to bringing a better and bigger package next year.Not all like being on stage and I'm glad you loved it - hooked!!

All is good, been busy with work, training and spending some time with grandsons before my big trip in 3 weeks.@ssgjpd are you ok?
Man in America you guys can get boxes of pharma test and I'm lucky if I can get 1 vial at a time up here. There's a Canada wide shortage. I tried to reorder today and they told me to call back Thursday....oh CanadaAll is good, been busy with work, training and spending some time with grandsons before my big trip in 3 weeks.
Had labs done last week and everything looking good and where we should be. I did donate some plasma and RBC as my hematocrit was sightly elevated (51).
I was going to run a health phase log, but figured it would be a waste of forum space since I. Even running ragged. I do check in a see how the EVO family is doing.

@ballin2504 - Not my preference as this is how my Dr. prescribes it and also the insurance will accept it. I asked about the 10ML vial and when I first started TRT that is how it was submitted buy insurance rejected and would not cover, it's mind boggling.@ssgjpd now that’s a great touchdown man.

You adding to this as a blast?
$15 is an awesome priceEspecially when my out of pocket cost is $15 for 17 vials.
Some of it will be used. We holding off and staying on 150 a week for now. Then possibly in Oct we will start the growth cycle.
Where is all this pharma test? Not domestic supply. They used to have middle eastern amps, that’s good stuff. I have a little stash still.Man in America you guys can get boxes of pharma test and I'm lucky if I can get 1 vial at a time up here. There's a Canada wide shortage.

Ooooooh you mean from the doctor.Where is all this pharma test? Not domestic supply. They used to have middle eastern amps, that’s good stuff. I have a little stash still.
Yea no pharma test in Canada for over a year now. Super short supply. They're rationing the orders.Ooooooh you mean from the doctor.
Conspiracy thoughts intensifyYea no pharma test in Canada for over a year now. Super short supply. They're rationing the orders.
Rumour is all our test is being diverted for "gender affirming care". No test for the actual men, just the girls who fell like one.
It's the only thing I've heard that makes any sense. The shortage is across all brands. I could understand if only Pfizer became unavailable or something like that. A single company having problems with supply is totally understandable. This is effecting every manufacturer and cypionate has totally disappeared, the one ester doctors prescribe most of all.Conspiracy thoughts intensify
You wouldn’t think there’d be sooooo many legitimately transgender men that would go through with it that it would offset the entire supply. My take has always been that there’s a trend of “trans” people, and those are mostly confused kids and almost virtue signalers or whatever you wood call someone who wants to associate with oppressionIt's the only thing I've heard that makes any sense. The shortage is across all brands. I could understand if only Pfizer became unavailable or something like that. A single company having problems with supply is totally understandable. This is effecting every manufacturer and cypionate has totally disappeared, the one ester doctors prescribe most of all.
I don't know if it's actually all being used. This is Canada. Our government subsidizes all our pharma. So if the government allocates test for the purposes of transitioners then that's what will happen. Our public healthcare pays for their gender affirming care, including surgeries.You wouldn’t think there’d be sooooo many legitimately transgender men that would go through with it that it would offset the entire supply. My take has always been that there’s a trend of “trans” people, and those are mostly confused kids and almost virtue signalers or whatever you wood call someone who wants to associate with oppression? I believe that there are people who somehow, possibly from birth or before, experienced a developmental hormonal event that switched their gender expression, and this has been replicated on various lab animals. Supposedly. We all know that studies can be created or manipulated to show the desired outcome and this happens to greater and lesser degrees quite often.
I think the former are by far more common and they are ultimately not good for the cause for people who may be living with a treatable but incurable medical condition. Those are rare. My take
If they get transitioner test, we should get bodybuilding test. I have clients who want to transition into bodybuildersI don't know if it's actually all being used. This is Canada.

That's a great point. I should copy paste that to someone in our government. I identify as a bodybuilder now give me my pharma test!If they get transitioner test, we should get bodybuilding test. I have clients who want to transition into bodybuildersthey need it. @BeMe
Gosh you’d think they would have a better grip on the supply chain. The producers here would be in bed with the gov on that. So they would know to ramp up productionI don't know if it's actually all being used. This is Canada. Our government subsidizes all our pharma.

I wonder if that works lol but you would have to go to a doc for it.That's a great point. I should copy paste that to someone in our government. I identify as a bodybuilder now give me my pharma test!
Well can they just transition… twice? That’s gotta workIf they get transitioner test, we should get bodybuilding test. I have clients who want to transition into bodybuildersthey need it. @BeMe

I'd hope so. It's been over a year like this.Gosh you’d think they would have a better grip on the supply chain. The producers here would be in bed with the gov on that. So they would know to ramp up production
The EVO podcast just discussed this topic a week or so ago. If you bring your prescription you should be fine. Check out that podcast cuz they have a lot of tips for traveling.@BeMe That some crazy stuff. No matter the country once the government gets envolved it gets screwed up, no matter the country.
On a different note, I been doing some research as I am headed to Fort Simpson as was planning on bringing my TRT, should I even worry about the hassle with customs?
I listened to that one and good information. I plan on carry my script with me as I am already on customs lists as I am traveling with a firearm.The EVO podcast just discussed this topic a week or so ago.

Lol only in America is it more concerning to travel with testosterone than a gun.I listened to that one and good information. I plan on carry my script with me as I am already on customs lists as I am traveling with a firearm.
LOL...Lol only in America is it more concerning to travel with testosterone than a gun.
Handguns are now restricted up here in Canada so you can't buy them, but if you already own one you're allowed to carry it to a shoot, then bring it straight home. Any deviation in travel could land you in big trouble and they can take your fireams license a guns
Hope you enjoy it and good luck!LOL...
First time hunting in Canada region and looking forward to it. It shouldn't be a problem but I like to be cautious. 16 more days and I am in the back country.

We plan to increase it. My TRT prescription from my Dr is 300MG@ssgjpd the labs are actually clean fairly clean i like alt ast numbers but your test level TRT is low you should be at 200-250
300mgs is sports TRT thats perfect, add 2 IUs of hgh will make it sports TRT+ @ssgjpdWe plan to increase it. My TRT prescription from my Dr is 300MG. We was just running the 150 for for the short time between last show and when I get back in Oct. Then we will titrate back up and start the push phase.

Nice one! That look cool on the wall. Never ate Ram but I would sure would eat all of it. Enjoy and congratulations.Well gents, I am back from my hunting trip in NWT and finally got to play catch. I have also started my push phase ( will be getting a new log going here shortly) and starting week 4 of it.
A few have wanted to see picture from my trip so here it is. I was able to take a great ram on day 3. This is by far the best tasting wild game animal I have tried and was able to bring 45lbs of some of the leanest protein back.
