I have some on the way! I have used it before with great success.
Awesome! What did you decide to go with? GLOW, KLOW, or separate BPC stand alone?

I'm thinking for BPC at least 500mcg every day.

Only problem is they are no longer 24/7, so my early AM workouts are at an Anytime Fitness.
Ha! Anytime is where my more full time gym is, and Goodlife is my tanning/squat/deadlift gym.

Next time I will do them when the pecs are fresh at the beginning of the workout.
Yes let's do this, just stretch the pecs out against the wall and bang out as many as you can till your face hits the floor and let's see.

Thoughts/Reflections:
Been meaning to incorporate more compound movements into my routines. I can't even remember the last time I did deadlifts, but threw them in the mix today. Whoooweee - torched my back in a good way! Looking forward to keeping these in the rotation.

I am continuing to keep isolated bicep work minimal and light. All around great lift, and my back is already getting the good tight feeling!

Not to much to report on today. Everything was on point besides BP, which was a bit elevated - but I fell behind on hydration. Catching up on that this evening.

Looking forward to not having to go to bed at an elderly hour tonight, since tomorrows workout has been scrapped to sync the revamped program. I am actually pretty excited for the new split, as I really want to focus on growing my legs and adding in more compound movements.

Nice update and it's new and improved as promised!

BPC/TB500 blend. Will probably be going 500mcg AM/PM

Ahhh the weekly and then daily breakdown this looks great, well done! Thanks for taking that advice.

Macros look good for your goals bro. With legs too you can cycle carbs and go high carb on leg day pre-training so you can go heavy and hard. Legs and calves are stubborn for a lot of bros and you have to really crank the intensity.

Haha to bed at an "elderly" hour, I'm gonna use that one!

I have used it once before, for a back tweak last fall. Seemed to work for me!

The majority of my carbs come from breakfast - I am hooked on overnight oats with peanut butter protein and a serving of PB. Since I usually lift 1st thing in the AM - I have a good amount of carbs running for the workouts.

The legs are coming along - but I want them to fill out my shorts by mid summer!

Back looks nice and wide, love the pump :D how much cardio did you do?

I had to skip cardio yesterday - ran out of time with some family obligations. The deadlifts def got the HR up there tho!

5.2% bodyfat how did you measure? :D @catdadironman
looking to see how you're doing as this progresses :D
though I noticed no digestive aids added, i dont see psyllium or probiotics i would add them because all the GLPs you have

I got my BF tested at my gym (Lifetime) with calipers a few months ago - I then used that information to calibrate my Garmin index scale. I am not chasing any specific number for BF - I use the number just as a trend marker.

I am slowly reducing my GLP use to find the sweet spot for my current goals.

I was at 15mg of Triz right before starting my log. I have a somewhat addictive personality - and I tend to binge on the things that are not good for me. I find Triz to be extremely beneficial in reducing my "food noise" - I eat enough of what I need to, but it helps avoid unnecessary snacking and reduces my cravings for sweets to almost nothing.

I am primarily using Reta for lipid recovery after my 8 weeks of Anavar - I haven't noticed a discernible difference in appetite since adding this, but it was also added when reducing the Triz, so they may just be evening out that aspect.

I get about 45g of Fiber through my diet - which keeps my digestion healthy and moving normally daily. I don't notice any issues such as bloating, constipation ect. If I add digestive aids - things tend to get a bit "chaotic" for me in the GI tract, which can be problematic - so I only add something if constipation happens.

Photos look good

Thank you sir!

Hopefully you get your body fat lower to where you want it to be. I think all of us have somewhat of an addictive personality. It takes a special kind of something to be able to hit the gym five or six times a week like maniacs, right? @catdadironman

Hopefully you get your body fat lower to where you want it to be.

I am pretty much right were I would like to be, so I am playing with dosing to be able to sit at maintenance for a bit.

I think all of us have somewhat of an addictive personality. It takes a special kind of something to be able to hit the gym five or six times a week like maniacs, right?

Aint that that truth!

thats still impressive 5% hard to see but possible :D @catdadironman

thats not an issue, we all have addictive personalities and body dysmorphia :D we are on a steroid forum so you came to the right place for body issues and addictions
i would think in your case the use of light retatrutide and cagrilintide is the way not a solo GLP1
did you check my community research on it?

thats good but you need the cag in there to help

thats fine but the digestive aids always help no matter the fiber tbh

Been meaning to incorporate more compound movements into my routines. I can't even remember the last time I did deadlifts, but threw them in the mix today. Whoooweee - torched my back in a good way! Looking forward to keeping these in the rotation.

I am continuing to keep isolated bicep work minimal and light. All around great lift, and my back is already getting the good tight feeling!

First day of the revised workout split. Went well - and hamstrings felt strong today. I am open to any critiques and or suggestions on revisions that may be needed on splitting my leg workouts into anterior/Posterior days - will be a work in progress to fine tune it.

On a side note: does anyone else still log their lifts the old school way - pen and paper?

nice job on this one. crunches and leg raises. hitting that core is amazing

The dumbbell shrugs and decline bench are fantastic. and the leg raises are also on point. Keep up the good work.

Bros, looking really amazing on this. The crunches and the leg raises are on point and I like the different grip you're doing.

looking incredible bro.....amazing pics.....

We believe in you man. The EVO family supports you.

Looking incredible bro! Smashed that workout!

Thank you, thank you, thank you! Its always a nice morning ego boost to wake up to words of support and encouragement!

thats still impressive 5% hard to see but possible :D

I am probably going to get a Dexa scan before I start the summer bulk to get some very precise numbers.

i would think in your case the use of light retatrutide and cagrilintide is the way not a solo GLP1
did you check my community research on it?
https://www.evolutionary.org/forums...s-semaglutide-tirzepatide-retatrutide.109649/

This will be my evening reading tonight!


thats fine but the digestive aids always help no matter the fiber tbh

True! I am going to need bigger pill organizers soon!

playing hard :D good update and lets get a TD pic of your BPC please @catdadironman

I was on 15mg of Triz just prior to starting my log - I am slowly weaning down. My current goal is exact maintenance until summer. My macros will fluctuate on days of low physical activity - I dial it in with my Garmin watch calorie data. I currently feel very good where I am at - lean, but eating enough where I am not feeling lethargic or noticing diminishing returns in the gym.

Slept the best I have in a very long time, and the new workout split went very well. I can already feel the hammy's getting a bit tight. All nutritional goals met for the day.

I added a few new metrics to the daily section: HRV and RHR.

I had been pinning my Test sub q since starting TRT, but with my current leanness I began running out of areas to get decent pins without lumps. I have moved to shallow IM in my quads and shoulders. I had extreme anxiety about IM injections when starting TRT, but this method is now by far my preferred delivery route.

Got my lift in early, then sat in a cozy coffee shop for my decompress routine: a Cortado and a crossword. I am starting to think I might just be an old soul :ROFLMAO:.

I'd like to see you move into a lower tirzepatide dose if you can :D so we can implement some cagrilintide @catdadironman

nice meal pics love that fire pic looks nice! @catdadironman fancy place!

happy to hear you had good sleep love it! thats the big win!

you doing IM, you follow this guide for IM pins? https://trtinjections.com
 
on the peptides i dont trust peak lab peps seem some bad reviews, you check umbrella labs? they are the only ones made in USA actually USA

Good to know. I have used this lab in the past, and had a positive experience - but I will always defer to people who more about sourcing than I do - which is minimal.

but why not use notes on phone easier?

I put myself on "do not disturb" mode at the gym! The only reason I have my phone on me is for music - I find doing a paper log keeps me more focused on the workout. If I am entering stuff on it between sets I can get distracted with other notifications and such. It works for me, and easier to flip back a page or two to see past sets/weights.

i wouldnt make changes now except a cardio bump and core work planks addition

Its going to be spring here soon - then the road bike comes out. Thats by far my preferred cardio method, I usually go for a couple of 25 mile rides a week. Treadmill/stairmill at the gym is so mind numbing boring. But goal today is get on the stairmill.

Yes - I have seen this and its been a bookmark for a while. Plus my TRT clinic showed me how to do IM if I chose to do so.

I use a pen and paper every day my friend. There’s just not an app out there that can replace it for me. I’ve tried tons of them. Paper just works every time. I also write my workouts the night before so I can think through the before I get up in the morning and do it.

Got my cardio in - and some added mobility work for the shoulders.

Been forever since I have done pull ups - numbers are a little small. Gonna have to work on those. Other than that, good all around lift.
 
today you also did BIs like a pump up? or its the pain you kept away? :D

Incline bench press, especially dumbbells and long head bicep movements are the only two movements that trigger discomfort. So I have been staying away from those. Just did a little test run to see where it was at. Incline felt ok, but used a machine that has total stability in the range of movement, so easy to focus on form ect. No bicep work was done during push day.

carbs a bit low though

How much should I bump them - I tend to feel the best with protein heavy macros.

be careful try to deload those angles completely hoping no injury for you :D @catdadironman

Thoughts/Reflections:

First week on the new split felt good, I enjoyed leg days more now that they are split into focused parts.

Nutrition remained on point all week - I seem to be holding steady on weight and body fat. I will be lowering my GLP dose next week and see how that goes. As stated before, the goal right now is to hold onto my current physique until May if I can.

Nicotine use has been creeping down - and next week I am going to drop from 6mg pouches, to 3mg pouches. Next step after that will be totally off of it. None the less, if I can get down to 3mg pouches at under 5 pouches per day, that will be less than half of my daily intake less then 2 months ago.

Thoughts/Reflections:

Trying out some super sets to condense my 3am pre shift workout. I like this set up! Was able to get everything taken care of within a reasonable time frame.

Bicep tendon was not an issue today - but still keeping things on the lighter side on movements that trigger it. Hopefully I can get back to pushing some decent weight on those movements in the next few weeks.

I love the full upper body pump after this workout - I just wish I could keep the pump forever!

I was on 15 shortly before starting this log - used it for my initial weight loss journey. Going to be tapering it down again here shortly.

I have an unusually high tolerance for most medications - for instance, when I worked overnights I had an Ambien RX that I would occasionally use when needed. I could take 10mg, and after a leisurely 60-90 minutes, I would eventually drift off to sleep. So... not exactly the instant lights out experience most people report.

Calories and macros haven't been an issue at the 10mg dose - if anything I could easily eat more. However, I am attempting to maintain until summer here in the US. The Triz mostly helps cut down the food noise, sweet cravings and random snacking. As a result, the calories I do eat tend to be more intentional and actually focused on what I need, rather than whatever happens to look good at the moment.

I am defiantly not withering away. Lean mass remains steady and going up, I am not having any energy issues, and I continue to make progress in my lifts. If any of these metrics began to downtrend - I would immediately reevaluate the dosing. But for now - it is assisting with my timeframe goals with no noticeable negative consequences.

Thoughts/Reflections:

Sleep was less than ideal last night - luckily it was a rest day from the gym. All nutritional goals met.

First day of the 3mg nicotine pouches, reduced from 6mg. Couldn't really tell a difference to be honest. The pouches almost seem more like a ritual than getting any actual buzz off them anymore.

Squats have been alluding me on making forward progress. I followed a suggestion of putting my heaviest set immediately after warm up, to see if that might eek out a few extra reps on the heavy end. It didn't seem to make any discernible difference - but the progression down felt very strong.

Thoughts/Reflections:

Squats:

I got a little to fixated on the 225 number in previous workouts. I realized my form was suffering to get to that weight. Back to basics - lowering the weight and focusing on perfect form. Ass to grass. Hammies touching calfs. I sometimes need to remind myself that ego lifting will not get me the visual results that I am after. The strength will come in time.

Ego Boost:

I try to be as humble as I can be, but I have been getting little ego boosts from other gym members more often. More people are asking me what my split is, what my nutrition is, asking for advice on how to achieve their goals, and compliments on my physique. As someone who always thinks there is room for improvement and can be self critical, these are nice reminders that I am indeed making progress and the results are showing.

Never used to work core that much, but since I have been consistently, its been so beneficial - I won't ever be giving it up.

Thoughts/ Reflections:

Early and quick workout, cause I have some adulting to do today.

Back felt insanely strong, had some great pulls and felt invincible!
Nice looking workout mate. Some good exercises there. Assume the weights are in lbs. Still means 90kg for pulldowns and 45's for db rows which is good going!

Thoughts/Reflections:

Recovery was..... underwhelming at best. My body held true to form, and it continues to reject the bold strategy of eating a heavy meal right before bed. Dining out also pushed my bedtime about 2 hours later than normal, which my very type A internal body clock completely ignored by waking me up at my normal time anyway. Consistency is important I guess?

The rest of the day was very low key, and mostly involved catching up on my TV series. Calories reduced a bit due to the heavy food yesterday and lack of activity today. Thankful its a gym rest day.

Attached Photos: My youngest son displaying the vibe of the day, a much lighter and nutritious meal than last night, and my new workout bag patch given to me by a friend last night - sums up my life :ROFLMAO:

It is a niche higher end pasta bar - very limited menu that changes weekly. Their protein option was duck this week - I love duck, but don't care for the preparation they were offering.
duck is good still just take off the skin :D

Hahaha brooo!! We DM so much I forgot to get caught up on your log I feel like we each have a log going in DM's already LMAO

I am primarily using Reta for lipid recovery after my 8 weeks of Anavar - I haven't noticed a discernible difference in appetite since adding this
This is common, of the 3 GLP's it's the least appetite suppression

but my BPC showed up.
And 1mg ED is a great dose too.

On a side note: does anyone else still log their lifts the old school way - pen and paper?
If I know I won't remember my workout I do yes. I only post one workout a week out of the 3-4 I can get in so it's a little easier for me though.

I had extreme anxiety about IM injections when starting TRT, but this method is now by far my preferred delivery route.
Haha I've been waiting for this. Once you go IM you've crossed over bro and won't go back. With your leanness 1" and you can IM anywhere LOL

I'd like to see you move into a lower tirzepatide dose if you can :D so we can implement some cagrilintide
@catdadironman Lev is on to something with cagrilintide I have some on it's way now and @LevButlerov wrote a community research article on it here ➡️ Cagrilintide with GLP1's

Got my cardio in - and some added mobility work for the shoulders.
Guys like us shoulders are like a used car, gotta keep up the maintenance work!

Been forever since I have done pull ups - numbers are a little small.
Bro 37 total pullups and 12 as your first set when this is cold from having not done them in a while... that's strong bro!!

I love the full upper body pump after this workout - I just wish I could keep the pump forever!
I don't know whether I'm looking at a muscle or a vein... damn bro... you sliced, diced, and pumped!!

I try to be as humble as I can be, but I have been getting little ego boosts from other gym members more often
I should f*ckin hope so, look at your size and vascularity! Although you know what some are really asking heh heh.

Dude do you watch Donut Operator? That looks just like what one of his merch patches look like!

@catdadironman on that dosage of tirzepatide you should be really feeling it. I hope you can get away from your vices though man. That's no good. Nicotine and coffee are not good for you.
