I've got a log going on of Hipo's stuff on another board, and the activity there has fell off the map. I figured I would post this up here and get some more recognition for hipo's gear going.
Week 9 Measurements:
Weight 223.9
Caliper BF% 10
High Thigh: 28.25
Low Thigh: 24
Teardrop: 19.25
Calf 16.75
Neck: 20.5
Forearm: 14.75
Bicep: 19/18.25
Chest: 50
Waist: 35.75
Shoulder: 58.25
Here were my Week 2 Measurements:
Weight 229
Caliper BF% 12
High Thigh: 28
Low Thigh: 24
Teardrop: 19
Calf 16.5
Neck: 20.5
Forearm: 14.5
Bicep: 18.5/18
Chest: 49.5
Waist: 38
Shoulder: 57.5
So, we're looking at changes in:
Weight from 229 to 223.9
High Thigh from 28 to 28.25
Low Thigh no change
Teardrop from 19 to 19.25
Calf 16.5 to 16.75 (was hoping for more but my calves are stupid)
Neck no change
Forearm 14.5 to 14.75
Bicep from 18.5/18 to 19/18.25 (going to have to monitor my left bicep its dumb)
Chest 49.5 to 50 (yay)
Waist DOWN from 38 to 35.75 (YAY)
Shoulders up from 57.5 to 58.25 (yay)
After his last time posting up a logger's measurement results I hope everyone doesn't come in here and say OMFG you had a 38 inch waist WTF you shouldn't be on roids lololomfgwtf.
The fact is I've been on a heavy bulk for over 3 years. This is my first "recomp" in 6 years. It was VERY successful. I don't do cuts really, this kind of ended up as one, but not really because I lost a tremendous amount of fat and water weight while also adding size to basically every area that matters.
Admittedly, I did not meet my goals, but I think in hindsight my goals were unattainable. My intent was to actually gain weight while shedding fat. Instead, I've increased LBM, decreased BF, and increased strength.
With the calipers and simple math, we're looking at about 2.6% reduction.
Some of that is clearly water weight.
How much? Who knows lol. This is guess-work, but I wanted to be thorough. So, I was probably looking back on it around 12% BF before and about 10% BF now. Which makes sense looking in the mirror.
Also, my bench press did go up from 475 to 490, which I had hit 485 once before, but that was a bounce off and not a paused rep. So, along with the increased size, decreased weight and waist, and decreased body fat. I also see a pretty decent increase in strength. I did not do heavy weight on other areas, I simply had a specific goal for chest, and I really wanted to achieve that goal on this cycle. It would be stupid to try at this point with the hole in my gut.
Additional notes: Hair loss slowed around week 7, I did lose some, my hairline receded somewhat, and my hair thinned overall somewhat. It is bearable, but I will need to go get hairplugs in the future. Probably another two DHT based cycles and then I will have no choice lol.
Some of this is copied directly from my log and some of it is typed just for evo. I hope the members take it for what it is worth, to show that the gear I ran was quite potent. I'm never going to be shredded because I don't want to, but I do like to run around at about 10% BF as my abs start to pop out and my chest begins to lean out at that point. I spent my entire teenage years and up until the age of 25 at 8% BF and under, I didn't like the way it looked. I prefer the tankmode to the corvette. I don't want to go up to the teens again though, so I'll attempt to maintain 10% BF from here on out.
