Day 92

Rest day, I went for a walk to the beach listening to an audiobook. Since I arrived in Playa del Carmen, my feet are swollen and I have a hard time walking long distances. It feels like an instantaneous pump in my shins.

Day 93

My feet were less swollen. I can see a vein on a my right foot.

I haven't slept for the past 4 days. According to my fit watch, my sleep is at its worst. Apparently, I had no deep sleep. Zero. I think it's true because I kept rolling in bed. Not stress related. The bed is really uncomfortable. It's like sleeping on wood planks. It I have to find a solution or it will hurt my recovery.

I haven't taken creatine nor glutamine since I arrived. I will order whey protein, dextrose, maltodextrin, creatine and glutamine.

I don't think I went under my maintenance (3100 calories) but it's close. I have to make sure I keep a caloric surplus for my test and to keep my gains. I walk way more now, so I have to check them closely. I don't think I will go back to 340g of proteins daily, more like 260g, but I will increase my carb intake. Fats are good.

Day 94

Yesterday, I added a futon on the mattress for extra softness. Didn't work. I kept turning and turning. Now, I haven't slept in 5 days.

My feet are even less swolen. I can see more veins on them.

It was a rest day for me today, so I went for a nice walk.

great update here

AMAZING...Your log is top-notch, seriously. You've got everything squared away and totally under control. It's impressive, learned a lot from it.

Thanks bro

 

[bullkupp]

bros i always take ear plugs and sound machine when i travel

Yes bro I will buy another pair. I put a big fan next to me when I slept. I think the noise was messing up with my sleep patterns. I stopped using it and my sleep slightly improved.

 

[bullkupp]

last vacation I was on they put me on a party side of the resort and it was hard to sleep

I don't know how those who rent appartments over bars and nightclubs sleep. They may follow the same schedule hehe. Hopefully, noise isn't really an issue where I am. I understand more than ever the value of a good mattress.

 

[bullkupp]

bloating is normal on test, it will go down

Yes it's already going down now. My ankles and feet look normal now. They were swollen enough for people to notice. There were the real michelin man legs. I don't know if on lower doses of test it would still do that. I guess I would have to try and if it happens I would have to run something else.

 

[bullkupp]

i bet the gym is pretty empty

No, you would be surprised. The gym is often busy no matter the period of the day. It's located in downtown. You have tourists and locals. It's a nice mix of people coming from all over the world. Though, I don't have to wait for machines or anything.

 

[bullkupp]

maybe ask them to move you to a more comfy bed?

It's not an hotel, it's an airbnb.

do you sleep on a very cushy bed at home

Yes I do. I added a futon over the mattress. It helps a bit.

If I could only get 5+ hours per night. I average just around 4.5 hours per night.

I always feel sleepy. Hopefully I will manage to get some good sleep soon

If I could only get 5+ hours per night. I average just around 4.5 hours per night.

Some people just need 4-5 hours of sleep a day. I think it's in the genes. I need at least 7 hours to feel "operational"

I think Arnold gets like 4 hours per night..

I think he said something like, "sleep faster" in one of his speech.

At least I am getting 45min of deep sleep when I get 4 hours of sleep.

Day 96

I had somewhat of a good night's sleep. Though my deep sleep only covered 11% (I usually get between 25% and 30%) I felt better and it showed in the gym. I felt like I was still on anavar. The 45lbs felt lighter when I grabbed them.

I ordered what I was missing (dextrose, glutamine, creatine and whey). Hopefully, I will receive everything this coming monday.

I'm there in my cycle (3 days before PCT):

I watched a guy's video (don't know if he is a doctor), but his clinic prescribes TRT and enclomiphene (at 12.5mg twice a week) to replace HCG. Apparently it works better. The only downside is that it lowers IGF-1.

For cardio, I'll go take a walk on the beach.

This is what I am eating today:

I added second cup of white rice so +80g of carbs and +12g of protein.

Leg extensions 110x12 (warm up)
