I would train with you for sure, especially if you train at a meat head gym.

Bros, I would train with you for sure. I would bring my cousin too. He's a big BBC as well. We both would push you hard.

Changed things up a bit today. Replace the back squat with some belt squat and pushed a bunch of weight. Felt good to really turn my legs into jelly

Cardio:
  • Type: Burn Boot Camp / or Weighted Walking.
    • frequency: TTS / duration: 45min

Training Notes:
My arm / shoulder is not getting better as quickly as I would like so I’m having to make concessions in my training to try to make it rest easier. I’m looking for any way I can take the pressure off the arm and still get a good chest workout in
•Recovery: Good
•Pumps: Solid still.

Nutrition
Calorie intake remains around 2500 a day
◦Protein ~260g
◦Carbs ~245g
◦Fat ~75g
Supplements
All remain the same

Weekly Symptom Tracking
•Overall I still feel good with plenty of energy. I had a few rough days this week but I’m still feeling on top of things. I had a bit more soreness due to the increase in volume.
I guess 227kg belt squats for 12 -15 were a little more than my ass was expecting

Symptom
Scale: 0 = None | 10 = Severe

Anxiety / Irritability2
Mood0
Libido10
Sleep Quality7
Appetite6
Joint Health4
Water Retention2
Acne0
Soreness8

Notes:
I’m chomping at the bit to increase my testosterone and start a bulk but I know I need to wait for my bloods to come back good. I’m gonna do a mail in blood test tomorrow that should have my e2 and then I’ll have my doctor run it again at the end of the month. After that one comes back I’ll be ready to push as long as all is well.

On a separate note, I had a great time talking to @Mobster and @stevesmi for this podcast. I hope you guys get something out of it. I imagine we will have some more to talk about after I get a good blast in since things have changed quite a bit since our conversation.

•Overall I still feel good with plenty of energy. I had a few rough days this week but I’m still feeling on top of things. I had a bit more soreness due to the increase in volume.
I guess 227kg belt squats for 12 -15 were a little more than my ass was expecting

Notes:
I’m chomping at the bit to increase my testosterone and start a bulk but I know I need to wait for my bloods to come back good. I’m gonna do a mail in blood test tomorrow that should have my e2 and then I’ll have my doctor run it again at the end of the month. After that one comes back I’ll be ready to push as long as all is well.

On a separate note, I had a great time talking to @Mobster and @stevesmi for this podcast. I hope you guys get something out of it. I imagine we will have some more to talk about after I get a good blast in since things have changed quite a bit since our conversation.

I like the protocol on the peptides. @BigVelvetG those healing peptides are really good. I'm going to pick up some TB500 pretty soon myself. Makes a big difference.

i'm sure the 10mgs of mk677 before bed helps sleep. probably sleep very deep. i used to dream a lot of stuff on it @BigVelvetG
 
Today was a killer but unfortunately I did have to change up my pressing movement for my shoulder. The landmine floor presses were just not working. I tried a few different things and the main ones I came up with that didn’t hurt were close grip pushups with my hands around a slightly suspended barbell, superset with cable flys. Then I got to thinking and I pulled a bench over to the cable machine and did presses where I crossed my arms in front of my body alternating which one was on top and that made my upper chest cry but also didnt hurt my shoulder. Still on the lookout for more options but those really got my chest good.

@BigVelvetG I can tell you’re leaning up nicely! Keep up the good work
 
Great workout this morning. I feel good and had lots of energy.
IMG_0895.webp

@US-pharmacies

I was listening to a podcast and it got me thinking. Does anyone ever run short low dose cycles of different peds to see how they react with their specific body? For instance a short test cycle followed by a short break then a short test and mast cycle and another short break then a test and EQ cycle (maybe a little longer for the EQ) the a break then a test and deca… with monthly bloods. I’m thinking a month on and a month off but I don’t know.
My question would be what would be the best dosage for each and is a month long enough to see what the compound is doing in your body with the exception of EQ?
Just thinking

You know what, one month doesn’t make any sense to me for esters like Deca, EQ, or even long‑acting Masteron, because the saturation period for Deca or EQ is about three weeks of use. So in my opinion, it’s not worth the effort.


If you want to run short, rotating cycles, then six weeks on short esters would make more sense. But I played around with that in the past, and even those six‑week runs felt like too little time to really make proper use of the compounds — there are too many fluctuations afterward.

Thanks. That’s exactly the kind of info I’m looking for. If it doesn’t make sense then it’s clearly not worth it. I’ll just run a regular 8-10 week high test only cycle like I was planning and make sure I get good bloods for that. Then the next will be a longer test and EQ cycle. Then I can try something else after that. I’m really curious about how each different compound reacts in me specifically and I’d like to find the most efficient way of figuring that out.

Exactly. Just remember that the foundation here is nutrition and the appropriate dose of testosterone — whether for building muscle or for cutting.
Everything else is just supportive compounds 🙂
The basics are testosterone, food, and training 🙂

you can do short cycles that works but if you use long compounds like eq they have a long half life, you're not sure which aas is doing what at that stage @BigVelvetG :D

Nice pull workout mate. The GHD extensions are you doing glute-ham raises or back extensions?

@US-pharmacies

I was listening to a podcast and it got me thinking. Does anyone ever run short low dose cycles of different peds to see how they react with their specific body? For instance a short test cycle followed by a short break then a short test and mast cycle and another short break then a test and EQ cycle (maybe a little longer for the EQ) the a break then a test and deca… with monthly bloods. I’m thinking a month on and a month off but I don’t know.
My question would be what would be the best dosage for each and is a month long enough to see what the compound is doing in your body with the exception of EQ?
Just thinking

You could do that with the shorter acting counterparts, like mast p, npp, bold ace/cyp for example, but even then, being faster acting compounds they will hit harder and faster so you will likely feel sides alot more.

Plan a cycle and start low titrate up.

Thanks @codezz it works for me better than any app I’ve found.
Also I listened to your podcast and that job you got seems brutal. Must be why all you Australians are such bad asses

For your shoulder can you see a physio or something and get some manual therapy done? I swear by Active Release Technique (ART).

Just finished your podcast as well mate. Was a very easy listen. Glad you talked about thyroid. I used to read a lot about it on other forums back in the day. Seems like you got a doc to help you the right way with the desiccated thyroid instead of the synthyroid stuff.
 
BigVelvetG said:
Yeah it’s pain. I’ve been running BPC/TB at 500mcg daily right into it
I’m also doing 2mg ghkcu daily as well

can you please post how you reload syringe? maybe your doses off? @BigVelvetG

I’ve been seeing a PT for the last 2.5 months and it stated to get better but then it just kinda stalled. I just made an appointment with a doc that does stem cell and shockwave therapy so maybe I can get some relief there

The pig thyroid has been great. I highly recommend giving it a try for anyone with hypothyroidism.

@BigVelvetG shoulder issues are a HUGE problem. you working on mobility work daily? there are some decent YT videos on that. if you keep hammering away good chance you end up with a tear so don't push it

Nice work on hip belt squats
Click to expand...
Just trying to lift like you big man. Just kidding. The belt squat is deceptive in my opinion. It feels like I can’t get a good tension on my legs unless I have at least 600 lbs on it for high reps. That’s where I start to feel it but it really kicks in when I get up around 700

Yep, mobility daily and pt once a week. Next week I’m seeing an ortho that does some shockwave therapy and stem cell stuff so I’ll report back on how that goes
I’m also avoiding any press movement or anything that puts my shoulder in a painful position like back squat. I can still overhead press and do cable crossovers and flys without pain so I’m still doing that. Also trying to focus on back work to build and tighten that up

i gave up on pressing and militaries years ago. i do flat bench, regular rows and stuff like that. but nothing overhead or incline that puts pressure on shoulders.. otherwise they said i would get a full tear and need surgery

Flat bench kills me right now both straight bar and dumbbell. I can do light incline dumbbell but that’s about it

if its that bad i would say dump any sort of pressing for a while with substantial weight. just go super light to keep conditioning.

Yeah that’s the plan. If it hurts the injury at all I’m not doing it. It’s frustrating because I was seeing some chest growth before and now it’s stalled.

the body has ways to punish us and gives us red flag warnings. its all part of the long game so don't be frustrated. my PT warned me if i kept pushing hard i would be out 6-9 months if i needed surgery so that was enough for me

You'll never go wrong with this type of training consistency. @BigVelvetG I like how you layer things. Now next workout maybe mix up the training and do the eight exercises in a different order.
Click to expand...
I like that idea. I always want to do my heaviest work first but the rest I can switch up. I need to swap out similar exercises as well to hit some different parts of the muscles

I generally only get cardio for an hour 3 days a week on not lifting days right now. When I ramp back up in a few weeks I’ll go to a 5 day lifting phase with 20-30 min cardio daily and a longer session on Saturday.

if you can get it ramped a bit fasted :D
 
Wednesday workout complete. I need to start taking a photo of my cardio white boards so you guys can see what I’m doing there. I’ll start that tomorrow.

It’s basically CrossFit-light. I just do whatever the trainer says do for 45 minutes and try not to stop. I usually leave in a dazed pile of sweat. My wife runs the gym so I get free membership

Bro I love checking in on your log and seeing the old school Yates style hand writing log you keep. I like the daily rating of mood, appetite, etc too, very detailed. Also, your zero fucks half naked pics still make me giggle and that's how I knew you were militant.

Your white board writing is so perfect you must have crouched down at the bottom to write the Plank Jacks and Walls Balls LOL.

Anyone who's ever done wall balls know they are no joke! You grind hard brother and it shows in your pics, great work!

100% I'm gonna try these when my deload is done. Traps have always been a sticky point for me despite the fact our damn androgen receptors are supposed to be super densely populated in that area.

Nice looking workout there mate. Good selection of exercises. Weights looking good on the deadlifts with 130 for sets of 5. Good weight on the seated row as well.

I'm a big fan of DY hey. I love that his vids always pop up on my FB feed. I'll have to check this out.

Calorie intake has dropped to around 2200cal a day just trying to get the BF% down a bit before I start a new cycle. I’ll be pushing up to 2500-3000 in about 2 weeks so im planning my diet changes now.

Notes:
Bloodwork
I got my bloodwork back and my e2 was back in range but my test was low and I was feeling it. so we bumped it up. I was taking 80mg a week. Now, I’m pinning 75mg Monday morning and another 75 mg Thursday evening. This already feels better.

Shoulder issue.
I also saw an orthopedic doctor and she did an ultrasound. Turns out I have subacromial bursitis, an old tear in the supraspinatus and scarring on anterior deltoid and a tight pec… we tried shockwave therapy on it and it felt better for a few days. We’re going g to 8 sessions of shockwave and see how it goes. I’m hopeful that this will get me some relief

Question?
In the meantime, I have another question. I did a search on the forum and it looks like guys have done a small dose generally half of their trt dose of deca for joint relief. Does anyone think this is a bad idea for me? I would split 75mg 2x weekly and take it with my trt shots. I’ve got a vial of it from @US-pharmacies looking at me right now….

You're looking good in the pic :D lean @BigVelvetG but clarify for the blood work you did 80mgs testosterone/week or 150mgs test/week? before the bloods above because your T levels are low!
