My usual Thursday workout. Still draining from the congestion. I like how things are looking. I do have fat to lose. With the hair gone, now I am doing more skin care with lotion. The retinol cream helps prep the skin for the color/summer sun.

Working the abs and core once again. With this HGH I feel like my midsection is not tight enough or crunching I don't feel the ab tightness. Feels more loosey goosey. Good bicep workout. Just plugging along. I brought 96/4 ground beef 2lbs for $13 for the win. 6 servings, one down, five to go.

Interesting notation about HGH and the midsection. I will have to take more notice next run I make. That is a great price USD or AUD

No androgen rage. I have been going thru the motions. Workouts are good, but not great. Consistent. Just lacking intensity. It will come.
My right glute hip has been sensitive. I wonder if I did something yesterday. One wonders if it is a tweak or if I was just jittery injecting my right glute yesterday.

Good workout today. Still no androgen rage. Shoulders feel good. Ended up not doing seated shoulder presses in the smith machine today. Just said that was enough for today. No soreness, just have to loosen it up prior to the workout. On the glute issue, still trying to figure out is it the shot or did I tweak it a bit. Just not as loose as it should be.

did you check this site for glute pins? https://trtinjections.com/glute @PrinceDaddy
and have you followed up on the bpc/tb situation?
glucosamine msm chondroitin added with bone broth?
Good to see this back in
@PrinceDaddy I love how you update the little details, like about the androgen rage and about how your shoulders feel. That's crucial. If you don't have good shoulders, you're in big trouble with upper body lifting.
Bros, not bad, 3000 steps, better than nothing. Target weight 165 pounds, you're gonna get shredded. @PrinceDaddy
Once you trim up to 165 or 170 pounds, you'll be absolutely shredded. @PrinceDaddy You're gonna look fantastic, we're looking forward to that.
@PrinceDaddy You are the man for sure, man. I'm really looking forward to seeing how you do. You're gonna have an amazing year, I think.
Wow, you're doing your competition right in the middle of summer. It's going to be brutally hot, but you're going to kick ass and take names. I got all the confidence in you. @PrinceDaddy

My usual Monday workout. I feel pretty good and strong with the back movements. I still have the shoulder and glute issue, but its more a sensitivity issue as it does not affect my workout. Annoying thing today is the plate loaded row machine had under repair sign on it. I looked all around, pulled the handles, nothing felt broken to me. I sat in there and ran thru my motions with no plates. Everything felt fine. I found the maintenance guy to ask him what was wrong with the machine. Turns out both arms had cracks in the metal. OK. Guess I will have to use the pin machine until it is fixed.
Today was cold, it was around low 30s this morning. This past Saturday it was 80, This Friday it is supposed to be 90. Texas weather swing is just crazy. I am affected. I'm cheap so I don't have the heat turned on. I don't mind being cold. Hate being hot. Likely I will have to turn on the A/C on Thursday this week.
I brought the sauna vest a while back, but did not like how I looked in it. I decided to wear it under the hoodie in the house to stay warm. I think I am going to do this for a few days. I do think it suppresses a little hunger as you feel tighter and fuller. In April I do plan on starting to use the waist trainer and fasting.
I feel like my biggest issue is the abdominal distention and I am trying to focus on that this year.

Today, I front loaded leg extensions and curls before squats. Still chilly here in Texas, but the weather turns to heat tomorrow. Did wear the sauna vest, will continue to do so thru the week. Scheduled blood work for next Friday. That will also be my last HGH dose and my first fasting Friday. Will do fasting Fridays from that point forward. I'm thinking of taking the HGH arounf 12pm and blood work will be around 2:30 to see the HGH effects on bloods. Will be fasted.

Was wondering why my workout was dragging today. I take some pre workout pills. I left the caffeine pill on the plate. 200mg. That would do it.
I am still doing plate loaded presses for the chest and it seems to be working well.
Another interesting observation. I go up 2 lbs from Tues to Wed consistently, 1 more pound into Thursday, and another pound into Friday. I am running the HGH M-F, this seems like a consistent patter over the last 4 weeks. Next week will be the last week.
Hopinh for some androgen rage to kick in. Not quite there yet.

As expected with the HGH up 2 lbs today. Pre-cooked 99/1 Ground turkey for the next 3 days. Much better workout today, did not miss the caffeine pill. It's getting hotter in Texas. Not quite today, but tomorrow will likely lose some fluids during my walk.
I have been looking for a burn in the abdominals, I do some non weighted twisting and do feel my obliques. My core is strong, and a few weeks back I did feel them. Now I am much stronger but just don't feel it as much. I am chasing the feel, slowing down the motion.
Another day in the books.

Nice strong workout today at least until I got to the leg press. Squats were very strong. I have been slowing down the movement and trying to feel the burn. With just 2 plates each side I had a great set, as I exited the press I tweaked something in my lower back right spine. It's not terrible, but just annoying.
I filmed some of my my sissies. Will post from my phone.

Bros, we believe in you. You are the best. I like how you are posting up your steps, 19k steps a lot, especially in America. @PrinceDaddy
You are looking better and better, man. You definitely have some good size compared to a year ago in my opinion. @PrinceDaddy now it is just a matter of cutting down ahead of the show.
@PrinceDaddy I hope you absolutely kill it from now until the summer. It sounds like you got some inspiration from your friend. He is a warrior.
Damn right
Good work on this. I like how you are doing the testosterone and deca and then when you get closer to competition you'll change it up. @PrinceDaddy

Got a new cat, 6 month old kitten. We have 10 year old alpha female who is very territorial and seems to not like others. We had a black stray cat we adopted a few years ago, but she passed away last year. They eventually at least tolerated one another. This is a male black kitten. Hoping to get the two to bond and be nice to each other.

Bolita is hardcore
@PrinceDaddy yeah dude, it's tough with cats. Sometimes they're just not going to get along. Maybe slowly introduce them. The one I got, he already knew the other one. He used to come over all the time and visit him and they became really good friends so it was really easy when I adopted him.
Bros, that's a good looking cat. He looked like the Black Panther to me. @PrinceDaddy
Nice man, good to see how you're implementing fasting in your protocol. @PrinceDaddy you're showing how it's done.
Nice looking moggie.
It can take a while
@PrinceDaddy congratulations on the new family member. Hopefully everybody ends up being happy together and good job on the update. I like the small weights for a change.
Looks like we have a new member of the EVO family. It looks really cool. That looks like a cool-looking cat. He's got some yellow eyes. @PrinceDaddy

Good leg workout today. My weight has dropped. The HGH was still in effect this week. I would say the change up was Friday was cooler than normal down in the 60s. I am also fasting. I noticed I tend to be colder and less thirsty. I did make sure to hydrate before the blood draw. I normally might drink some water in the evening if I wake up with dry mouth. I did not drink anything last night. Weight goes up and down, from herein I do want to generally trend lower as the cut does begin.
Here's some check in photos. I am hoping to see some chiseled abs and glutes this year. We shall see.

Good leg workout today. My weight has dropped. The HGH was still in effect this week. I would say the change up was Friday was cooler than normal down in the 60s. I am also fasting. I noticed I tend to be colder and less thirsty. I did make sure to hydrate before the blood draw. I normally might drink some water in the evening if I wake up with dry mouth. I did not drink anything last night. Weight goes up and down, from herein I do want to generally trend lower as the cut does begin.
Here's some check in photos. I am hoping to see some chiseled abs and glutes this year. We shall see.

Good back workout today. I do not feel weak. I'm not killing it. I am getting thru it. Weight seems to be trending down. Going to start researching next steps for me. I see a transition sometime in April to a lean cut. I am done with certain foods and leaning healthier. Gym peeps are starting to ask when is the show. July 15 is far away, but closer than you think.

I would go with NAD+ first before ss31 @PrinceDaddy
good write up on the peps
Have you run ss31 and nad+ before with some success? I've seen a lot of mixed reviews on nad+
Thursday : Traps / Tris / RDLs
Wake up 191
Post Workout 186
Steps 17k
Cycle : Week 8 / Test/Deca Hypertrophy Phase
Target Show Date July 15, 2026
Target Weight 165
Another good workout in the books. My focus is to get a good workout. I want to feel something. Blood work, just waiting on Estradiol now.
Weight seems to be moving in the right direction. Tomorrow will be fasting day. Not along fast. Just 4AM to 4PM. I want to start putting in the habit.
Ordered peptides, I should be able to start the NAD+ and/or SS-31 on April 13th. This will get me thru May, will likely need to order again
depending on efficacy for me. I have no experience with SS-31, NAD+, and PT-141 so just want to see how and what I feel.
Item Name Qty
SS-31 10mg 1
PT-141 10mg 1
AOD-9604 5mg 2
5-AMINO-1MQ 10mg 2
NAD+ 500mg 1
Mots-C 10mg 2
Still looking to acquire BAM-15 and SLU-PP332. I am on Reta, but should run out soon. I plan on trying a run on Tirz. and then will decide which GLP will be in play thru the rest of the summer.

This is quite an awesome test you are doing. There are so many Peptides now doing similar things it really confuses the shit out of me when I glance through them. I will watch this with interest to see what you think of your chosen items

nice thats a big peptide order but you really shouldn't introduce all of them at once before the show so close only a few months out. Intro 1 at a time and see how you do
@PrinceDaddy
Getting stocked and ready to go
@PrinceDaddy nice to see you really hitting those peptides and using them to your advantage. We're seeing more and more guys using them.
Bros, damn, five-pound fluctuation from when you wake up to post-workout. It just shows how much our weight moves around throughout the day. I bet I move a lot of weight as well. @PrinceDaddy
