Female Log OptiRip 10 (Retatrutide) Female Journal

Week 5- Log 6 ( 24th Jan to 30th Jan)

I finished my Optirip reta dose last week. From tomorrow I will be switching to reta vial given by @ZenithHealth

I have seen some massive changes in this 1 month time.

Body Weight & Measurements

Starting weight:
53 kg

Current weight: 47.6 kg

Total change: ~5–6 kg loss in one month

Clothing size: Changed from size 10 to 4-6 depending on the fabric

I am on 2nd day of periods today, which is typically peak bloating phase for me. I always look and feel my most bloated ( Ladies would understand what I am talking about ). I am not looking bloated this time. I have been feeling soo amazing physically from the past 3-4 days.



Also, my periods are usually like a clock work but this time it arrived 5 days early. I understand as I have been stressed this week and it can greatly affect the periods.



This week I have in my Luteal phase / High progesterone+ high cortisol phase

Focus: Fat loss + recovery rather than muscle gain as recovery was slow, prone to injuries.

Rationale

I structure my training and nutrition around my hormonal fluctuations rather than traditional male-style bulking and cutting cycles. As my cycle

  • Follicular / Estrogen-dominant phase – Muscle gain phase
    • Higher carb tolerance
    • Higher insulin sensitivity
    • Focus on muscle building, strength progression, and higher training intensity as better muscle recovery happens naturally.
    • Body is more resistant to exercise stress and cells have high cortisol sensitivity
  • Luteal / Progesterone-dominant phase – Fat loss phase
    • Higher fatigue
    • Natural raise BMR
    • Increased need for recovery
    • Focus on fat loss, stress management, and nervous system support
This week I experienced:

  • Increased tiredness
  • Muscle soreness lasting longer than usual
  • Mild cramps and poor recovery from previous leg sessions
  • Right shoulder still hurts after the upper body session
Quads on my right foot feels very tight. I tried to go kickback, usually I can do 40kgs , I couldn’t push more than 15 kgs

As a result, I deliberately reduced training intensity and volume to avoid adding stress during a higher-recovery phase.



Training Summary

Sessions completed:
2

  • Focused primarily on upper body
  • Avoided pushing through fatigue
  • Prioritized recovery over performance
Observations

  • Quads still not fully recovered from prior leg press session
  • More prone to minor strains and discomfort
Strategy: Reduce volume, extend rest days, and prevent cortisol-driven stress responses by avoiding overtraining during this phase.



Nutrition & Carb Cycling

130-150gm protein in both the phases

Estrogen Phase Intake

  • Higher carb intake
  • Typical carbs:
    • ~50g oats
    • ~120g cooked rice
Luteal Phase Adjustment ( This week)

  • Slight carb reduction
  • Current intake:
    • ~30g oats
    • ~100g cooked rice
    • Added rice for dinner as well.
I ran out of KPV so for the last 1 week I have no been taking any peptides as I get delayed mast cell reactions without kpv. I have plans to go to the beach with the girls and didn’t want any obvious injection mark or swelling



Goal: Support hormones and keep cortisol low. Carbs to blunt the effect of cortisol. If it goes up, fat gain, muscle loss happens

Observations

I am eating way more than before and yet loosing weight ( OMAD – I was starving myself )

Sleep Quality

  • Sleep has been good
  • Best recovery when in bed before midnight
Night Routine

  • Sleep scan meditation every night.
  • Blue light filters + amber lights
  • Incorporating gratitude practice for each body part, organ, and system
This is a practice I previously used during my autoimmune recovery and have now reintroduced it.





Next Step

Sports physiologist consult to assess training load, injury risk, and recovery strategy as atm I am spending more time recovering than training. I want to fix the issue than being dependant on bpc and tb500
You look like you've definitely gotten more conditions so what you're doing is working. @Iron_rose1 also I love your set up for your night routine. Getting rid of that blue light is a great idea.

@Iron_rose1 you are proving that women do belong in the gym. Also that's interesting that you're eating more and losing weight. That just shows you your metabolism is getting stronger.

Looking really good on this. I like how you have a routine and you're sleeping good. That's always a good thing for sure. The sports physiologist is going to be cool. You'll learn a lot from them hopefully. @Iron_rose1
 
@Iron_rose1 you are proving that women do belong in the gym. Also that's interesting that you're eating more and losing weight. That just shows you your metabolism is getting stronger.
This is the best comment. Thank you. I wish I get better with my technique and stronger..will get there soon.
 
I couldn't upload the photos in my last log on friday. I figured out the set up to take my own photos. I also have some collage photos to compare results so far. Thanks for supporting @ZenithHealth
Awesome work here!!! Huge changes!!!
 
Hahha this was so funny.
I am sure it isn't that bad. I havent any guy who has good physique and not attractive face. Masculine face on men are always attractive.
Far from good physique but getting there. Nicest thing anyones said in a long time. Love this community. So supportive. Only support i have these days.
 
I tried to do some Sherlock Holmes on your photos when you said no need to brush the hair..Did I see a mohawk?😅
I was going for the Mr T look but the hair style is forever changing, its just too hard to do it myself, can do the front but the back gets messy 😅😅🤣🤣
 
Lol they make us blur the face? Hahaha I couldnt have posted my chubby body photos if my face wasnt blurred 🙊🤣
Noooo. It's more the using of PEDs and posting that info online while living in some places where that's an issue. My face isn't blurred because it's legal to use here

Yeah my face aint blurred coz idgaf. Its my body and aint nobody telling me what i can do with it. Happy to push addictive chemicals on us that dont work but no allowed to chose treatment that works.
 
Week 6- Log 7 ( 31st Jan to 7th Feb)

Today I pinned 2nd dose of reta from the vial from @ZenithHealth



Bodyweight

  • Initial target: 49 kg
  • Current: 48 kg
  • Lowest recorded: 47.5 kg
  • Goal now: stop further weight loss and shift focus to muscle gain and strength


Nutrition


  • Previous intake: too low overall, despite higher carbs than before since stopping OMAD but still lower than 1300kcal. Increased to 1750 kcal
  • Trial intake:
    • Carbs: ~200 g/day
    • Protein: 110–120 g/day
    • Fats: remainder of calories
  • Observations and minor-set backs
    • Temporary bloating and less “snatched” look as I suddenly increasedmy cal as well as carbs
    • Evolt scanner showed loss in lean mass loss as compared to previous scan. Expected glycogen + water weight response. I understands it’s part of the process when upping my cal and carbs.
  • New approach:
    • Will be avoid sudden carb jumps to let my body adjust to the change in diet
    • Increase calories by ~100 kcal every 1-2 weeks
    • Protein to remain ~110–120 g/day
Training

  • Gym sessions this week: 3
  • Load progression: conservative due to prior injuries
  • Confidence in gym: significantly improved
  • Visual changes:
    • Noticeable improvement in glute definition
    • Looking a bit bigger but it might be from mild inflammation from training, increased carbs and glycogen as well as DOMS
Recovery & Rehab

I had 2 sports physio sessions so far and I am so glad I did that. My shoulder is much better now and I was able to do 4 gyms sessions this week.

2 sessions- lower body and 2 sessions upper body
Day 1 – Glutes + Hamstrings

  • Hip Thrusts: 50 kg × 4 sets
  • Romanian Deadlift: 30 kg × 10 reps x 3 sets
  • Hamstring Curl: 35 kg × 10 reps x 3 sets
  • Bulgarian Split Squats: 5 kg × 10 reps × 3 sets
  • Hip Abduction: 4 kg × 10 reps x 4 sets

Day 2 – Upper Body


  • Lateral Raises: 3 kg × 15 reps × 4 sets
  • Rear Delt Fly: 3 kg × 15 reps × 3 sets
  • Lat Pulldown: 25 kg × 12 reps × 3 sets
  • Single-Arm Row: 10 kg × 10 reps each side × 3 sets

Day 3 – Rest


Day 4 – Glutes (Recovery / Blood Flow Focus)



  • Hip Thrusts: 20 kg × 15 reps × 3 sets
  • Cable Pull-Through: 15 kg × 15 reps × 3 sets
  • Single-Leg Glute Bridge: 12 reps × 3 sets
  • Back Extension (Glute-Focused): 10 kg × 12 reps × 3 sets
  • Hip Abduction Burnout: 3 kg × 25 reps × 3 sets
Day 5 – Upper Body
  • Dumbbell Press: 8 kg × 12 reps × 3 sets
  • 90° Machine Delt Press: 0 kg × 10 reps × 3 sets
  • Chest-Supported Delt Raise: 4 kg × 10 reps × 3 sets
  • Cable Rope Triceps Pushdown: 10 kg × 10 reps × 3 sets
  • Cable Bar Triceps Pushdown: 10 kg × 10 reps × 3 sets


I stopped tb500, bpc and ghk cu at least a week before physio so I know what is working- the rehab or peptides.

Sleep – My sleep has been great and I have seen I am sleeping so well after the training days.

However, I have noticed increased in hairfall. Shedding like a husky in summer.

Probably previous calorie deficit is catching up, recently stress spike and previous sleep deprivation showing the results now or stopping GHK-Cu

I will be doing daily

  • Daily scalp massage (~90 seconds). Focus on moving the scalp, not surface rubbing
Supplements

  • Currently continuing Magnesium glycinate and Reta only
  • Discontinued- All other supplements and peptides. I will be testing @RGSX female specific supplements soon. I want to see if there are any changes or improvement.s If I jump from one product to another, won’t be able to record changes reliably.
Future Considerations

  • Continue gradual calorie increase
  • Build consistency with strength training
  • Monitor body composition rather than scale
  • Potential future PED use like HGH or light Deca, not now, only once rhythm, recovery, and training base are solid
  • Continue seeing physio
  • Long-term goal: muscle gain without rebound fat gain
  • Short-term : Okay if not looking as lean/ A bit bloated

Great update as always, the hair falling out sounds like something that needs to be resolved quickly, HGH and restarting GHK-cu seems to be the peptides that would help most in that regard when you feel the time is right. But it is an issue I don't have much familiarity with unfortunately, especially in women
 
Hopefully you guys would like it. Absolutely hate my voice though 🤣
You’re Australian? Do you say “nawr”? 😂

I was feeling weird about my voice. I think I sound really monotonous, with weird pauses like Christopher Walken. But got compliments which is funny to me hahaha
 
Week 6- Log 7 ( 31st Jan to 7th Feb)

Today I pinned 2nd dose of reta from the vial from @ZenithHealth



Bodyweight

  • Initial target: 49 kg
  • Current: 48 kg
  • Lowest recorded: 47.5 kg
  • Goal now: stop further weight loss and shift focus to muscle gain and strength


Nutrition


  • Previous intake: too low overall, despite higher carbs than before since stopping OMAD but still lower than 1300kcal. Increased to 1750 kcal
  • Trial intake:
    • Carbs: ~200 g/day
    • Protein: 110–120 g/day
    • Fats: remainder of calories
  • Observations and minor-set backs
    • Temporary bloating and less “snatched” look as I suddenly increasedmy cal as well as carbs
    • Evolt scanner showed loss in lean mass loss as compared to previous scan. Expected glycogen + water weight response. I understands it’s part of the process when upping my cal and carbs.
  • New approach:
    • Will be avoid sudden carb jumps to let my body adjust to the change in diet
    • Increase calories by ~100 kcal every 1-2 weeks
    • Protein to remain ~110–120 g/day
Training

  • Gym sessions this week: 3
  • Load progression: conservative due to prior injuries
  • Confidence in gym: significantly improved
  • Visual changes:
    • Noticeable improvement in glute definition
    • Looking a bit bigger but it might be from mild inflammation from training, increased carbs and glycogen as well as DOMS
Recovery & Rehab

I had 2 sports physio sessions so far and I am so glad I did that. My shoulder is much better now and I was able to do 4 gyms sessions this week.

2 sessions- lower body and 2 sessions upper body
Day 1 – Glutes + Hamstrings

  • Hip Thrusts: 50 kg × 4 sets
  • Romanian Deadlift: 30 kg × 10 reps x 3 sets
  • Hamstring Curl: 35 kg × 10 reps x 3 sets
  • Bulgarian Split Squats: 5 kg × 10 reps × 3 sets
  • Hip Abduction: 4 kg × 10 reps x 4 sets

Day 2 – Upper Body


  • Lateral Raises: 3 kg × 15 reps × 4 sets
  • Rear Delt Fly: 3 kg × 15 reps × 3 sets
  • Lat Pulldown: 25 kg × 12 reps × 3 sets
  • Single-Arm Row: 10 kg × 10 reps each side × 3 sets

Day 3 – Rest


Day 4 – Glutes (Recovery / Blood Flow Focus)



  • Hip Thrusts: 20 kg × 15 reps × 3 sets
  • Cable Pull-Through: 15 kg × 15 reps × 3 sets
  • Single-Leg Glute Bridge: 12 reps × 3 sets
  • Back Extension (Glute-Focused): 10 kg × 12 reps × 3 sets
  • Hip Abduction Burnout: 3 kg × 25 reps × 3 sets
Day 5 – Upper Body
  • Dumbbell Press: 8 kg × 12 reps × 3 sets
  • 90° Machine Delt Press: 0 kg × 10 reps × 3 sets
  • Chest-Supported Delt Raise: 4 kg × 10 reps × 3 sets
  • Cable Rope Triceps Pushdown: 10 kg × 10 reps × 3 sets
  • Cable Bar Triceps Pushdown: 10 kg × 10 reps × 3 sets


I stopped tb500, bpc and ghk cu at least a week before physio so I know what is working- the rehab or peptides.

Sleep – My sleep has been great and I have seen I am sleeping so well after the training days.

However, I have noticed increased in hairfall. Shedding like a husky in summer.

Probably previous calorie deficit is catching up, recently stress spike and previous sleep deprivation showing the results now or stopping GHK-Cu

I will be doing daily

  • Daily scalp massage (~90 seconds). Focus on moving the scalp, not surface rubbing
Supplements

  • Currently continuing Magnesium glycinate and Reta only
  • Discontinued- All other supplements and peptides. I will be testing @RGSX female specific supplements soon. I want to see if there are any changes or improvement.s If I jump from one product to another, won’t be able to record changes reliably.
Future Considerations

  • Continue gradual calorie increase
  • Build consistency with strength training
  • Monitor body composition rather than scale
  • Potential future PED use like HGH or light Deca, not now, only once rhythm, recovery, and training base are solid
  • Continue seeing physio
  • Long-term goal: muscle gain without rebound fat gain
  • Short-term : Okay if not looking as lean/ A bit bloated
Great update of how things are going @Iron_rose1 . You are still looking great and I love that you are getting more confident in the gym and with your training. Things are progressing beautifully, just trust the process 🩵

Really great update 😊 I like how your training program is looking, lots of glutes/ lats/ shoulders - you’ll build a hourglass shape with that exercise selection!

I agree, good idea to focus on composition. Although you might find you don’t need to increase calories weekly if weight keeps trending up at a steady rate. Personally I wait until my weight has plateaued for a couple of weeks then add another 200-300cals daily. Sometimes it’ll be 5+ weeks until I need to increase calories. Then carry on until my weight plateaus again, or training performance begins to stagnate. Like you said not all scale increase is lean tissue & the longer you can extend the surplus phase for without needing a diet, the better 😊

We are so impressed with your progress in such a short time. It shows how hard you are working.
We feel privileged to have you on our team and I am sure your other sponsors are also.
We are just waiting on our DIM compound to arrive and then we will have your "HER" range vital support - express posted first thing!
Keep kicking goals and we will be right there behind you 🙌💪♥️
 
That log!!! 🥳🙌👏

Im excited to see how u go with @RGSX female range of supplements, and if u do decide to try some HGH low dose im.sure ive heard great things, for hair skin and nails, ive still yet to dabble in it but im a make the jump on it soon coz I cant be the only 1 not on it haha,

Great news about ur sleep and ur training sessions!!!

And im excited to see how u go with the increased cals!! U got this 🐼 🤜🏽🤛🏽🙏
I am excited as well. I sit down with my current supp bottles like a granny and open one by one haha.

I am currently on CJC and Ipa, which increases endogenous hgh. Cjc and Ipa is okay even if your sleep is not on point. I know hgh helps with sleep as well but if I have less hours to sleep, then exogenous hgh though have stronger effect, it should be used with caution if sleep hours are short.

Atm I think I will just use the gift of " beginner's gain" 🤣
 
Great update as always, the hair falling out sounds like something that needs to be resolved quickly, HGH and restarting GHK-cu seems to be the peptides that would help most in that regard when you feel the time is right. But it is an issue I don't have much familiarity with unfortunately, especially in women
Yeah. I am onto it. Going for a blood test to rule out any deficiencies. Going to start using topical reta with 0.5mm microneedling stamp on scalp. Just ordered thr stamp. 😊

❤️Solid advice Alice, thank you. Will change
Hahah you know your game, looking at the excerise sets you told where I am aiming at 😊. Probably coz you have been there, done that.
At some point I'd want to go on the stage for bikini comp. Atm I am no where close but I think at least start with this.
Have you partcipated before?
Any advice that you'd like to give?,

Thank you ❤️
I like to give break for any supps I take, in order to re-balance and not over loading the body. So this is the off supp time for me to reset before I start HER range😊

awesome update :D @Iron_rose1 tbh I dont think you need deca bad idea, hgh is best you should be doing with bpc157

@BeMe @HarleyGuy @s.gentz
@Allupfromhere @Pigsy @Dreamer @Freki @R.AP
@waggat @Coolguy @Trenhead3cc
 
Nice log update,

I would definitely pick HGH over Deca for a female. Much safer, Nandrolones not really a good idea.

I see heaps of great results in and out of the forum from women using HGH along side their peptides.
Anavar is an option but only in very small doses like 5mg. I know someone personally who started taking Anavar between 15-20mg and now she sounds husky like she has a cold for the last 3 months.
 
❤️Solid advice Alice, thank you. Will change

That’s an awesome goal! You’re definitely on the right track with your training split & exercise selection.
I might hit the stage one day, but I’ve got no immediate plans. The goal of my training & nutrition is to build a pro-worthy bikini physique - I just love the look. Although the IFBB/ NPC bikini standard has become very muscular now since the ‘fit model’ division was introduced - so it’s hard to keep up with the size requirements.
I think learning the mandatory bikini poses early never hurts, and it helps you to compare where you sit against the criteria (i.e., what areas need to be brought up). If you do decide to do a comp I’d hire a coach at least 12 months out so that you’ve got time to do a build phase with them and refine training/ nutrition before starting a comp prep diet. Otherwise my only advice is to stay consistent. It is a very monotonous process, but the it’s the repetition (of the right things) that yields results 😊

Always amazing catching up on your log. This is one of the fastest and most dramatic changes I've seen on a female possibly ever, and zero PED's as well. Obviously you mean business!

I have seen some massive changes in this 1 month time.
Very obvious in your pics. The 4th pic in your series above is super feminine and your entire body has transformed!

Total change: ~5–6 kg loss in one month
And not the bad kind of weight loss either!

Changed from size 10 to 4-6 depending on the fabric
Very obvious, great work!

I am not looking bloated this time. I have been feeling soo amazing physically from the past 3-4 days.
Good for you for discussing your period cycle openly and holding less water speaks to your nutrition and electrolytes detail, this is a big win!

I structure my training and nutrition around my hormonal fluctuations rather than traditional male-style bulking and cutting cycles.
Very smart, you're way ahead of the game here.

I will be doing another log as well.
Can't wait! Do it!

I will get there though soon.
Where? LOL.... girl you look amazing already it's all downhill from here.

Great having Iron Rose on the show too
Looking forward to listening to this and hearing this mixed accent too!

Noticeable improvement in glute definition
I noticed but was being a gentlemen letting you say it first LOL :p

Monitor body composition rather than scale
Now you're talking... this is when you know you're going next level.

Amazing update and the work you're putting into yourself is reflected in your log. You should be really proud of yourself this is becoming a front runner for fastest transformation!
 
Week 6- Log 7 ( 31st Jan to 7th Feb)

Today I pinned 2nd dose of reta from the vial from @ZenithHealth



Bodyweight

  • Initial target: 49 kg
  • Current: 48 kg
  • Lowest recorded: 47.5 kg
  • Goal now: stop further weight loss and shift focus to muscle gain and strength


Nutrition


  • Previous intake: too low overall, despite higher carbs than before since stopping OMAD but still lower than 1300kcal. Increased to 1750 kcal
  • Trial intake:
    • Carbs: ~200 g/day
    • Protein: 110–120 g/day
    • Fats: remainder of calories
  • Observations and minor-set backs
    • Temporary bloating and less “snatched” look as I suddenly increasedmy cal as well as carbs
    • Evolt scanner showed loss in lean mass loss as compared to previous scan. Expected glycogen + water weight response. I understands it’s part of the process when upping my cal and carbs.
  • New approach:
    • Will be avoid sudden carb jumps to let my body adjust to the change in diet
    • Increase calories by ~100 kcal every 1-2 weeks
    • Protein to remain ~110–120 g/day
Training

  • Gym sessions this week: 3
  • Load progression: conservative due to prior injuries
  • Confidence in gym: significantly improved
  • Visual changes:
    • Noticeable improvement in glute definition
    • Looking a bit bigger but it might be from mild inflammation from training, increased carbs and glycogen as well as DOMS
Recovery & Rehab

I had 2 sports physio sessions so far and I am so glad I did that. My shoulder is much better now and I was able to do 4 gyms sessions this week.

2 sessions- lower body and 2 sessions upper body
Day 1 – Glutes + Hamstrings

  • Hip Thrusts: 50 kg × 4 sets
  • Romanian Deadlift: 30 kg × 10 reps x 3 sets
  • Hamstring Curl: 35 kg × 10 reps x 3 sets
  • Bulgarian Split Squats: 5 kg × 10 reps × 3 sets
  • Hip Abduction: 4 kg × 10 reps x 4 sets

Day 2 – Upper Body


  • Lateral Raises: 3 kg × 15 reps × 4 sets
  • Rear Delt Fly: 3 kg × 15 reps × 3 sets
  • Lat Pulldown: 25 kg × 12 reps × 3 sets
  • Single-Arm Row: 10 kg × 10 reps each side × 3 sets

Day 3 – Rest


Day 4 – Glutes (Recovery / Blood Flow Focus)



  • Hip Thrusts: 20 kg × 15 reps × 3 sets
  • Cable Pull-Through: 15 kg × 15 reps × 3 sets
  • Single-Leg Glute Bridge: 12 reps × 3 sets
  • Back Extension (Glute-Focused): 10 kg × 12 reps × 3 sets
  • Hip Abduction Burnout: 3 kg × 25 reps × 3 sets
Day 5 – Upper Body
  • Dumbbell Press: 8 kg × 12 reps × 3 sets
  • 90° Machine Delt Press: 0 kg × 10 reps × 3 sets
  • Chest-Supported Delt Raise: 4 kg × 10 reps × 3 sets
  • Cable Rope Triceps Pushdown: 10 kg × 10 reps × 3 sets
  • Cable Bar Triceps Pushdown: 10 kg × 10 reps × 3 sets


I stopped tb500, bpc and ghk cu at least a week before physio so I know what is working- the rehab or peptides.

Sleep – My sleep has been great and I have seen I am sleeping so well after the training days.

However, I have noticed increased in hairfall. Shedding like a husky in summer.

Probably previous calorie deficit is catching up, recently stress spike and previous sleep deprivation showing the results now or stopping GHK-Cu

I will be doing daily

  • Daily scalp massage (~90 seconds). Focus on moving the scalp, not surface rubbing
Supplements

  • Currently continuing Magnesium glycinate and Reta only
  • Discontinued- All other supplements and peptides. I will be testing @RGSX female specific supplements soon. I want to see if there are any changes or improvement.s If I jump from one product to another, won’t be able to record changes reliably.
Future Considerations

  • Continue gradual calorie increase
  • Build consistency with strength training
  • Monitor body composition rather than scale
  • Potential future PED use like HGH or light Deca, not now, only once rhythm, recovery, and training base are solid
  • Continue seeing physio
  • Long-term goal: muscle gain without rebound fat gain
  • Short-term : Okay if not looking as lean/ A bit bloated
Awesome update!

Congrats on the progress so far. You're looking really good and are now in a perfect place for a lean gain phase.

I might have missed it but have you mentioned much about your goals with training. Just a few things I noticed are not much quad work, not a lot of compound stuff for upper body and the first upper day only having four exercises.
 
That’s an awesome goal! You’re definitely on the right track with your training split & exercise selection.
I might hit the stage one day, but I’ve got no immediate plans. The goal of my training & nutrition is to build a pro-worthy bikini physique - I just love the look. Although the IFBB/ NPC bikini standard has become very muscular now since the ‘fit model’ division was introduced - so it’s hard to keep up with the size requirements.
I think learning the mandatory bikini poses early never hurts, and it helps you to compare where you sit against the criteria (i.e., what areas need to be brought up). If you do decide to do a comp I’d hire a coach at least 12 months out so that you’ve got time to do a build phase with them and refine training/ nutrition before starting a comp prep diet. Otherwise my only advice is to stay consistent. It is a very monotonous process, but the it’s the repetition (of the right things) that yields results 😊
I think you are already there. Probably need 3-4 months to be comp ready but I know what you mean, the look is what we are after; stage or no stage.
I have been thinking as well to hire a coach sooner than later. Atm I am a clean canvas and coach can shape me however he/ she wants.
 
Nice log update,

I would definitely pick HGH over Deca for a female. Much safer, Nandrolones not really a good idea.

I see heaps of great results in and out of the forum from women using HGH along side their peptides.
Anavar is an option but only in very small doses like 5mg. I know someone personally who started taking Anavar between 15-20mg and now she sounds husky like she has a cold for the last 3 months.
Thank you for giving the heads up 😊
I hopefully wont need anything but hgh would be the 1st choice
 
Always amazing catching up on your log. This is one of the fastest and most dramatic changes I've seen on a female possibly ever, and zero PED's as well. Obviously you mean business!


Very obvious in your pics. The 4th pic in your series above is super feminine and your entire body has transformed!


And not the bad kind of weight loss either!


Very obvious, great work!

I love the 4th photo as well. I increased my carbs this week, so glycogen and water gain this week slightly. Not worried though

Thank you. I actually look forward to going to the gym now. Its a big win

I am so happy. I wear whatever I want now and love looking myself in the gym.

Again thank you for your positive and motivating words. ❤️

I am aiming to have IFBB bikini physique in future..maybe in 1-1.5 years time.
My femur is long in proportion to my body and any legs movement I do is Quads dominated. I want to streghthen my hammies and glutes to have a nice glute sweep and glute shelf- more in Line with my final goals.
I am re-covering from shoulder injury as well, so going easy with upper body workout. Havent recovered yet.

I feel you! I am tall so have long limbs. They do take longer to fill out! I currently have 2 glute focused leg days per week, and 2 quad/ hamstring days. Legs are getting bigger in bikini now. You’ll see all of the pros now have quite dense & developed quads and hamstrings, especially in the upper hamstring area. For upper glute (the ‘shelf’) I like hip thrusts, hyperextensions, kickbacks, abductions/ reverse hyperextensions. For lower glutes I like Bulgarians, RDLs, walking lunges the most. I do each of those exercises 2 times a week over my 2 glute days ❤️

Awesome update girl, you are looking great.

I wouldnt use DECA. HGH is a much safer alternative. Especially as we get older, our HGH levels plummet!

They are big muscle groups, so to me makes sense to train them more.

I was sitting on the fence with Deca to start with but my brother tried to convince me to use it in low dosage. I wasn't sure. But yeah this seals it. Not worth the risk.
 
I love reading your feedbacks as well, always lifts me up.
That's awesome, and I'm just being honest because your log psyches me up too when I read it

I love the 4th photo as well. I increased my carbs this week, so glycogen and water gain this week slightly. Not worried though
Good no need to worry at all. I'm the bloat king before I learned how to mitigate it by being on EVO and there's pic of it in my 2025 log too LOL

Hahaha you would always be a gentleman even if you initiated it.
Yes women get respect by default. Men, not so much, it must be earned.

I am so happy. I wear whatever I want now and love looking myself in the gym.
This is awesome this is the entire objective. Self esteem and improved mental health!

my brother tried to convince me to use it in low dosage
You are officially advised to please tell us what your brother suggests from this day forward :p

Why on earth, would he suggest that? Please dont take that advice!

Agreed, like others have.
Many other options over Deca for you to take. If you aren't on GH already then I would definitely take low dose GH over Deca.
Alot more added benefits also with sleep,hair,skin and nails 🙌 plus there are other peptides that you could run in synergy with GH if needed and much safer.

Love your updates @Iron_rose1 and log. We are proud of you and the work you put in!

Logan,

Hahaha I will do that for sure.
 
Why on earth, would he suggest that? Please dont take that advice!
Coz he thinks I am a small man and his lil bro wanted some muscles 🤣
I get it though where he was coming from -
Deca was developed originally for women with osteoporosis and low blood count issues. Tbf my grandma was on it as well in much older age from muscle wasting.
Excess Hair = laser it off.

I have fairly high pitched voice, so he thought a little bit hoarseness wouldn't hurt. ( lol he changed his mind pretty quick today as I have sore throat and I am sounding really raspy 🤣)

Enlargment of ..... = yeah that was a real risk and main risk.

I wont go down any of that path.

He meant well I'm sure of it and there is a setting to use Deca in females just not with you in this case. Thank you for the honesty even though we all piled on your bro a bit LOL.

LOL that's awesome he sounds like a good guy being able to take a bit of a ribbing from strangers. The EVO squad formed up for a 'brother pushback' moment HAHA.

I heard you on the podcast sister :D @Iron_rose1 really good info! I hear part 2 is coming
 
Outstanding podcast!!!! One of the best! I shared this with my friend within 10 minutes of starting to listen, and demanded she listen today hahaha. She’s very fit and health-minded but she had some sort of mysterious hypoglycemic episode earlier this week and actually lost consciousness and went to the hospital. The complexities of female biochemistry are woefully understudied and women and their loved ones are suffering for it by the millions.

You are soooooo smart. The topics you addressed are relevant and needed fit so many. Thank you for doing this!
 
Hahahah I loved that though. You guys joined together so I dont potentially harm myself. Lol I told him about our interaction regarding his suggestion and it was funny.
our amazing sister @Iron_rose1 you've been upgraded to VIP podcast but it says trusted brother lol sorry, its auto we are working on it saying trusted sister for you, asking IT
 
I love WWE haha I guess its the little kid in me
Hahah WWE for me was like watching "Baywatch" for men 😝
I hear part 2 is coming
Yes, it is. We meant to be recording past thursday but I lost my voice with the flu.
She’s very fit and health-minded but she had some sort of mysterious hypoglycemic episode earlier this week and actually lost consciousness
It's pretty scary. I am picturing her as a small framed and small overall? Happened with me as well. I fainted once, all alone. I didnt realise but I was sick. Hypoglycemia combined with low blood pressure. I fell down on the glass of water I had in my hand. Shattered glass in my arms. I was on the kitchen floor and mobile was in thr bedroom.
It was pretty full on.
Was excellent listening
I am glad you enjoyed it 🥰
VIP podcast but it says trusted brother lol
Thank you. Hahah that's okay, I can be a bro 😊
 
Thank you. Hahah that's okay, I can be a bro 😊
sorry about this sister :D @Iron_rose1 the whole system we have is set up for bros lol :P we had the same issue with upgrading @Jigglybuff as well
IT dept is making changes to have "Trusted Sister" instead of brother!
Loved you on the podcast, you're amazing!
 
I am picturing her as a small framed and small overall?
She’s not a big woman, she’s the type that you think is small until you pick her up. Then it’s like “oh! This gun is loaded!” Hahaha. She’s like 5’3” 140 pounds. Very strong naturally. Was a dancer. She can put on weight pretty easily, but doesn’t eat when she’s stressed or depressed, but doesn’t lose much muscle. I was surprised this happened to her. She took to being carnivore quite well, but only did it for a month.

Week 7- Log 8 ( 8th Feb Jan to 15th Feb)

Thank you @ZenithHealth for your reta. Another dose pinned this arvo

I stopped my Cjc and Ipa all together now as I was getting pins and needles. It’s been a week since I have stopped and already feeling a lot better.



From today restarted
BPC
TB500
KPV

( Need to buy TA 1)

Soon I will be starting microneedling ( 0.5mm) with ghk cu topical application for scalp

Meanwhile my hairloss already reduced with the new massage technique.


Nutrition

On around 1500kcal. Have been having sore throat, so couldn’t eat as much but tried to keep up with the nutrition

Got infection in my throat and was down with flu this week. I trained in the starting of the week and managed to train yesterday. I am in my late luteal phase of the cycle meaning immunity is comparatively low. If I try to push, would be holding onto fat and more cortisol size. Besides, I didn’t want to infect others.

  • Gym sessions this week: 2
Recovery & Rehab
My shoulder is a lot better now. Missed my last physio session being sick and keeping myself in isolation


2 sessions- 1 lower body and 1 session upper body
Lower Body

  • Hip Thrusts: 40 kg × 3 sets ( Less weight but better range of motion )
  • Romanian Deadlift: 30 kg × 10 reps x 3 sets
  • Bulgarian Split Squats: 5 kg × 10 reps × 3 sets
  • Banded hip abduction : 20 reps x3 sets

Upper Body

  • Lateral Raises: 3 kg × 15 reps × 3 sets
  • Dumbell press :7.5 kg each X10 reps x 3 sets
  • Seated row: 25 kg x 10 repsx3sets
  • Rear Delt Fly: 3 kg × 15 reps × 3 sets
  • Lat Pulldown: 25 kg × 12 reps × 3 sets
  • Biceps curls : 10 kg barbell x10 reps x3 sets





Sleep – Sleep is still great. Been recovering from the flu, so have been sleeping 9+ hours easy. Lol cold medicine helps as well lol



Visual changes
Not too worried about the progress this week. It was more of recovery.

Did some meal prep and for a change took some photos.
Its burrito bowl - cottage cheese, pineapple for bromelain to digest protein, freeze dried glucamole, tomatoes with 130gm cooked chicken ( chicken I packed seperately)

I am in my late luteal phase of the cycle meaning immunity is comparatively low. If I try to push, would be holding onto fat and more cortisol size. Besides, I didn’t want to infect others.

Did some meal prep and for a change took some photos.
Its burrito bowl - cottage cheese, pineapple for bromelain to digest protein, freeze dried glucamole, tomatoes with 130gm cooked chicken ( chicken I packed seperately)

@Wheelhouse87 ur a chef can u make freeze dried food 😮😮😮 I love to cook, bake and experiment with food.
I got a freeze drying machine from Harvest Right.
I have made freeze dried carrots chips ( tastes like Cheetos but no calories) , Zucchini protein crackers, berries, mangoes and other fruits.
I wanted to be a chef when young and still have great passion for baking, cooking and experimenting new recipes ☺️

Your skin looks glowing!

Hopefully you feel better soon. I've heard the glutathione helps when you're sick.

Oh yeah. I just noticed that now as you pointed it out. I increased my vitamin C, and marshmellow root tea to help with the healing.
Also been taking zinc as it helps fighting viral infection...maybe its that.

Lol I am too sook to take glutathione atm. That hurts 😝

Got to watch pushing yourself so far that your immunity system takes a hit sister. Glad you have prioritised recovery over anything else. 🩵
