Hey everyone, I’m brand new to this forum and wanting to share my story and journey back to the bodybuilding stage. I’m an FMG Figure pro and my next goal is to finally step on the IFBB stage. IFBB has always been the ultimate goal for me and it’s about time! I haven’t competed since Nov 2023 and my life has thrown me some HUGE curveballs since then.
I’m definitely not in the shape I want to be at the moment and it’s time to change that. My goal is to get back into a condition where I feel and look like an athlete again, and then to work with my coach as to when we hit that IFBB stage.
I started competing around 12 years ago - did it for a few years naturally, then ‘retired’ but came back to it around 4 years ago. I was enhanced, but very minimally.
This time around I am a sponsored athlete for @ODINLABS - my starting cycle is -
Daily:
- 1 iu GH
- 0.1ml T3
- 0.1ml Clen
Weekly:
- 0.1ml Test E
- 0.1ml Primo
As I haven’t been training consistently for a long time I’m just starting out again with a 4 day split, 2 upper and 2 lower. Will eventually move that into a 5 day split as I like to split legs into 3 separate days to hit all groups evenly. My focus is drop fat and see what muscle mass I have left after the last 18 months of being out of routine.
Hormones have also been a bit all over the place following my last show - biggest issue has been my testosterone levels which have basically been non existent. We’re working on balancing levels again, which will hopefully help with motivation, mood and overall health and well-being.
Macros will be determined over the next few weeks as I’m still working out where my maintenance is to decide how aggressive my deficit will be.
I’m 40 years old and my current weight is 72.5kg - current condition photos took a bit of courage to post but it can only get better from here! Also included are some photos from the last time I was in stage condition for comparison.
I’m loving the support and advice everyone gives on this forum and I can’t wait to be a part of it - I’m open to any questions that anyone would like to know as well!
