Were you running enanthate or acetate?
Bro I feel incredible!! Just being myself again is such a joy. Breathing normally, not tired and sore all the time, what a blessing.Glad to see my man is back in the gym…after a break you forget how good you feel after a session and how important training is for so many of us
How you feeling overall?
Yea it's literally the one thing I have left in my life that needs to go. Compared to alcohol, drugs, cigarettes, partying, energy drinks, this one should be easy. Seems the least harmful of all the issues I had to it's the very last to go.
That’s awesome brother, now we grow
Hopefully bro. Got a lot of eating and training to do to try and get up to your level. Trying to get to 1.5 plane seats size like you lolThat’s awesome brother, now we grow
Hold strong on the deload brother only a few more days. This is second Evo superstar I feel like I am talking off a ledge instead of sticking with a deload this week, isn't it @Sheshredz
. 
bro 
We should all take the week offHold strong on the deload brother only a few more days. This is second Evo superstar I feel like I am talking off a ledge instead of sticking with a deload this week, isn't it @Sheshredz
I will throw back at you the same advice you gave me in December - take it easy, health is the most important thing
You will set the next stage on
Sounds like good advice. I'm known for giving advice but not following it myself LOLHold strong on the deload brother only a few more days. This is second Evo superstar I feel like I am talking off a ledge instead of sticking with a deload this week, isn't it @Sheshredz
I will throw back at you the same advice you gave me in December - take it easy, health is the most important thing

I am exactly the same, "do as I say, don't do as I do"
.
steady and stay off the tren for now, lets give a whole full week of recovery minimum @BeMe
good bp!
not high volume at all, this is good
thank you for not overtraining I thought you wouldn't listen tbh 
This is good you're controlling yourself, at least the whole week 1 and into 2nd week go slower way slower, let your body recover as you train into it
it happens, you're recovering so the body wants more food
! its a good sign
Haha thats my whole evo personality, I can tell
it would be hard for me to hang out with you. You millennials make no sense to me. I have a hard enough time figuring out my daughter.
Well that's good. We all can improve in some ways.
there is absolutely a magnetic force out there and you can attract good things into your life having that mentality
Nice update mate. Good to see your energy, appetite and libido all back. Sounds like your back to 100%. Good idea to stick to the plan for the next few days though. Looking forward to seeing you start smashing it again.
I guess that's one good thing about getting older. We learn eventually lolI am exactly the same, "do as I say, don't do as I do"
Both are learning a lesson this time. Might just back slowly off that ledge after all
Lol I don't blame you. I'd doubt me too. Kinda amazed I have been sticking to my plan and not cheating by adding reps at all. Its working tho. All my health metrics are looking consistently amazing so I'm sticking with it. Next week it will be time to turn the knob up.not high volume at all, this is good
Lol kinda. My wife uses my mom's family recipe so it's kind of a Westernized version of the Chinese food. I like it a lot better personally.
I'm only a millennial by age, don't like getting lumped in with those people. Most guys my age don't fit that category. We're the generation that came before the term millennial even got thrown around. I'm not as old school as you but I'm pretty old school by comparison to millenials.
Ya bro I believe that too. I'm not sure about a force but I think a positive mindset can make bad situations seem better. The whole idea of silver lining and all that
Thanks bro. Its been going great all week. The last time I remember having a period with such high recovery and health metrics this good was when I first got on GH. A couple more days like this and I think I'm ready to get back to the grind
lol! Last year of Gen X here and I say it proud! One thing I have to admit though is after we raised our kids and the wife really started working, I do help cook.
Back at! That’s great news. You’re doing right deloading for a min. You will catch up and blow right past again!
LOL!! Well said bro
Its ground pork, shrimp, and I think some chives wrapped in a wonton wrappers then steamed. Tastes awesome. My wife got the recipe off my mom cuz it was one of my faves as a kid
Looks like you are getting back into the full swing of things bro. Love the light session you threw around and your BP is
. Love the Pork dish as well. Epic update as usual brother
happy you're sticking to it
very nice
steady day dont add tren yet please @BeMe just a reminder
training is good dont go too fast
good slowly pumping back
no lets do a whole week of light training please
very nice! high protein
Thanks bro. Yea I'm really happy to see how quick my BP got back in check after the Tren had it elevated. Good to know that if I manage my BP while on the Tren I can get it back in order withing a couple weeks.Looks like you are getting back into the full swing of things bro. Love the light session you threw around and your BP is
I'm gonna do an entire week of deload style training for sure. That will take me to this coming Tuesday and then I'll start ramping things back up again. I'm definitely fully recovered at this point. Its funny cuz the data I have from this past week shows all my health markers are in better condition then they were when I was just running TRT before my cyclehappy you're sticking to it
very nice
steady day dont add tren yet please @BeMe just a reminder

Believe it or not I don't clean either. I can't remember the last time my bed sheets got cleaned. I wear pretty much the same thing every day. My daughter is always bitching that I smell when she comes over.
Thaaaaaat’s interesting. Any ideas of why it’s so much better now? Gotta be the rest, right? Did the sickness induce any fasting maybe?
yeah you seem like you have a lot of thoughts in your brain.
Sounds like you need a good woman in your life bro. If I didn't have my wife I'd probably be in the same boat as you
I was thinking it's probably the rest too.
Yea it's a problem lol. Can't ever seem to quiet my head. Probably ADHD. They did try to stick me on Ritalin when I was in elementary school but my parents said no.
Similar problem for me. My OCD makes it super difficult to "shut my brain off" and fall asleep. 20mg of melatonin a night just to get drowsy enough for the chance at a good sleep.
Food looks great and presentation is definitely not how I make it for myself it's super tidy looking. I just throw everything on there LOL. Your wife does a great job.
Lets make sure full week and as you ramp up only ramp up 20% per week until 100%, trust me on this dont overtax coming out from a sickness
@BeMe
I remember I took melatonin when I was having sleep troubles but it did nothing for me. I was popping those tabs like candies and nothn lol
Not much. It just fluctuated a lot. Maybe only a few pounds
Sounds about right. I am planning on increasing volume to about 80%. Loading will likely be about the same. Not even sure where my strength lies right now. I know for a fact I couldn't even manage 100% of the loading I was at just before the illness for sure. If I tried to push 100% right now I'm fairly certain I would just injured myselfLets make sure full week and as you ramp up only ramp up 20% per week until 100%, trust me on this dont overtax coming out from a sickness
I have found that different brands of melatonin work differently, and more is not necessarily better. The clinical prescription dose is only 80mcg, as I recall. I have one brand that I use, 3mg tablets. It works pretty reliably. 10mg of the same brand does not work the same and I always wake up in the middle of the night. 3mg of another brand would drop me and then I’d wake right back up.
Wow that's pretty interesting. I wonder if it's a sourcing thing?
I bet. Anything under 20mg does nothin for me.
You need to play chess as a hobby. I think that will help your brain get decompressed.
If it works, it works!
80% but if you feel it's a bit too much load, lower it back. We need to modify as you go slowly so you don't overload @BeMe
I can't remember what the dose was for the ones I bought, this is over 10 years ago. One night I took the dose, nothing happened so I took another dose, then I was like fuck those and did another double dose, still didn't sleep lol. Then I just gave up on it.
I used to play a lot of poker. But then I found I'd go to bed reliving mistakes or thinking about strategy. Actually made things worse. I barely slept during those years
Yea I figured treat it like meds and save the stronger stuff for later if anything.
I used CBD to prevent seizures when i dropped a med cold turkey 13 or so years ago. Shit was causing mad mood swings and fits of anger over the most trivial shit.
Hey mate, just slowly getting through ur log now as suggested by lev. How you rate whoop for tracking everything? Fitbit seems shit at catching my broken sleep.
That's hardcore. You were the early days user...from a barn LOL.
Yea Fitbits are notoriously unreliable bro. They're ok for ball park estimates but you can't really trust much of the data you get from it.
All looks great. Must be soooo ready to get back into it full tilt. Know I was
Good recovery numbers
@BeMe and @fingers86 you see the level of detail you can get from this device above.steady
how do you feel off tren? no sweats or cough?good bp, weight will stabilize soon
fairly light for you, you are not pushing it perfect
these light workouts are brining the blood flow in, giving you the pumps
this is a little level up for you.almost there.
very good and clean recovery #s too
good, rest a bit and recover, consider it a body deload
I would eat some Vietnamese now, but can't so late
Hey dont knock barn CBD oil til you try it. At least it was fun taking my meds for once. Lol
I do need to find a new wife. I'm trying, man. I keep going on dates and not getting second dates.
good point. Maybe you should do some things that relax your mind.
Yea tomorrow I'm dialing things back up again. Gonna run 80% of my previous work load and see how it goes for a few days. If all goes well then I'm jumping back on my cycle and going full tilt again.All looks great. Must be soooo ready to get back into it full tilt. Know I was
I've been off the Tren for almost 4 weeks now already. Time really flies. No issues coming off except days 3-6 where my hormones got way outta balance and I had some mild depression almost. Maybe have been related to the illness also, so who knows. I'll find out when I actually come off this time around.Good recovery numbers

So today's the day the Tren comes back?
Naww there was a documentary that started the whole CBD revolution. Two guys in Cali developed a high CBD low THC strain for a little girl with seizures named Charlotte. They called the strain Charlottes web.
CBD bro. Unless I'm really stressed about something CBD works every time.
How much you get? I saw some places got 60cm. For once i only got hit lightly, 6" maybe.
Domain.com.au, realestate.com.au, all homes.com.au. There you go brother, Canadians most welcome
Oh shit. Yeah now that you mention it i read about that back then aswell while doing my research.
Vancouver Island is insanely expensive. I love it out there but I could never live in a place controlled by the NDP LOL..that shit would drive me insane.
My wife loves scanning real estate apps so it will be a good way to get her more excited about the idea. She's a preschool teacher and I'm an electrician so I think your government wouldn't have a problem with us coming to contribute to the economy.Domain.com.au, realestate.com.au, all homes.com.au. There you go brother, Canadians most welcome
Damn bro that shit sounds scary as fuck!!! I'm glad you're improving a lot cuz just reading that was pretty tough. Just kept getting worse and worse...you really know how to build a story LOL.
Come on down brother....the weather is......fucking hot
But we are several thousand em's from your Southern neighbour (estranged )
Ive never looked at prices there, but i can see that. Honestly all the parties are shit. Lol
We got lucky finally. Lol. Pretty sure everyone here was prepping for outages and shit again.
Ah, about that. I actually cut 2 more paragraphs out that were worse by a fair margin, after realizing they were probably a bit much to post in your log. Lol
You have to, otherwise thinking about it would be miserable. Might as well joke about it.
Surprisingly i never bothered. I used to grind my teeth a lot when i was stressed, they fit together perfectly if i slide my jaw back and forth. I dont grind in a sleep seizure only chewing and clenching.
Ive suggested my papa to keep his mind open about trying CBD if his slight parkisons gets bad. Its barely noticable atm.
Illness, no training and time off is easily depressive. do you want to restart tren? @BeMe about 1 week.
I've heard that helps especially with some of the elderly who have dementia.
The AUS boys were saying down south it's more seasonal and the heat isn't too bad. Don't think I could hang up there with you. Maybe if I stayed in the south for a while and worked my way up I could acclimate a bit lolCome on down brother....the weather is......fucking hot
Doctors are just like everyone else, good ones and bad ones. My family doc was really good with the basics but anything new was completely foreign to him. I think they stop learning at some point and just stay set in their ways. If I ever find a GP again I wanna get a young one.
Oh yea I'm itching to start my cycle again lol. I'm gonna start later this week. My health markers are so much better now then when I started my cycle in the beginning of December. I think the time off training was really good for my body.
Yea CBD helps so many different conditions. Its only recently started being studied more medically but the anecdotal evidence has been around for a very long time. Everyone here can appreciate the situation with CBD. We are the anecdotal evidence for a lot of stuff lol
Your right, anything is new is basically crazy to them. Like the elderly with smartphones. I got a newer neurologist now. Shes a lot better than my old ones. Thats for sure.
I remember that. It wasn't even that bad. The streets look so much worse today the they did in that pic. The city has gotten a lot better at managing the snow, but it's definitely at a tipping point right now. We might need the military to come shovel if we get hit 1 more time.Your right, anything is new is basically crazy to them. Like the elderly with smartphones. I got a newer neurologist now. Shes a lot better than my old ones. Thats for sure.
We are getting a foot here right now, so you might just get more. Maybe even call in the army again.

I was just watching the snow removal on the tv. Lol. Thatd be funny if you guys need another "rescue".
Do you get it from a special place or do you order it online?
You should get some cross country skies for getting to and from the gym. Good cardio and you'd never have to worry about winding up in a ditch...unless you had an epic leg day...then maybe lol
In Canada it's totally legal and regulated. I buy it directly from our provincial government online and it gets delivered to my door in a day. They even use a service that only comes between 5-10pm so you're home to receive it.
Good let keep tren out for at least a bit
this week @BeMeBP steady, weight will move up soon
nice volume, I like your incline press 50 is a good pump
first day back, but you did well, lets not go too hard
sweet
love seeing nice pumps come insore right away? interesting
yes I see sleep a bit off. you able to add 1x15min nap during day? or schedule issue?
it looks nice and tasty
I'd eat it
Awesome that you are back hitting it hard again. Thought DOMS would ratchet up a tad
. Love the teriyaki chicken, I haven't had that in years. Must change that. Great to see you feeling the weight in your hands again
Your sleep is always so solid even if the amount is shit, do you wake up fresh? I have found 6-6.5 hours seems plenty for me with the deep and rem numbers in line
maybe assuming its something good for you lol
Sleep has been off just cuz I'm going to bed a bit too late and waking up early for some weird reason. Been taking power naps when I get home from work the past couple days.Good let keep tren out for at least a bit
BP steady, weight will move up soon
nice volume, I like your incline press 50 is a good pump
first day back, but you did well, lets not go too hard
you're slowing back to 100% its close, but dont overtrain or go too hard now
sweet
sore right away? interesting
yes I see sleep a bit off. you able to add 1x15min nap during day? or schedule issue?

@HarleyGuy @s.gentz
@Allupfromhere @Pigsy @Dreamer @Freki @R.AP
@waggat @Coolguy @Trenhead3cc @Kopite67
Its weird how much just moving a little heavy weight can pick you up so much mentally. Kinda makes you feel like a man againAwesome that you are back hitting it hard again. Thought DOMS would ratchet up a tad
Yea my quality is always really good but I lack the amount a lot. I can function ok on 6-6.5 but it's definitely suboptimal. Too many days with just that amount and I get wore out.
Lol very true
We are very similar in our sleep, my deep and rem is literally perfect now too, finally settled into this cycle.
