So I’m 48 and appprox 230 and roughly 12% BF. I finished a cut in October and have been on TRT since Nov. Still been training hard but not to failure so I can allow some time for everything to heal up. I was down to 220, so I’m up 10lb. I’ve made a bit of progress on weights because I’m back at maintenance calories which is right around 2500/d.



I feel like I’ve done decent on my diet in the past but when bulking I’ve been too afraid to be in too large a surplus for fear of getting fat. I’m old and it’s harder to lose than in my 20s. Anyway, for this go round I’m gonna try carb cycling and see how I do.



The plan is to have one high day, 2 low days and 4 med carb days. The low days will be on my day off from the gym in which I’ll do about 90 min of cardio.



Breakdown: total calories/Protein/Carbs/Fat



Low: 2200/260/200/40

Med: 3000/280/375/40

High: 3550/295/490/50



I’d love to get more meals in during the day but I don’t have that kinda time at work. I workout at 5AM.



#1

100g Blueberries

150g Yogurt

100g Kashi golean



#2

6oz ground turkey

6 egg whites

1 bagel



#3 and #5

200g chicken breast

100/200/300 white rice (L/M/H)



#4

Snacks

2 apples

2 bananas

2 servings of Whey isolate



The only change from low, med, high day is the fruit and the amount of rice for meals 3 and 5 and low day only 1/2 bagel



I’ll see how this goes and add in carbs if I stall in the gym or start losing weight





I’m doing a modified push/pull/legs routine. My main focus is to add some size to my arms, shoulders and hams. Everything else will be somewhat maintenance volume. Every set will go to 1 reps in reserve to failure. I generally will keep reps in the 10-15 range.



#1

3x incline bench press

3x machine chest flyes

4x plate loaded shoulder press

4x seated Y lateral raise

3x reverse fly machine

3x cable lateral raise

4x tricep extension

8x standing calf raise



#2

4x T bar row

4x pull ups

3x low back extensions

4x dumbbell single arm row

3x spider curl

3x incline curl

5x ab crunch machine



#3

4x seated ham curl

3x squat

4x hack squat

4x leg extensions

4x lying ham curl

8x calf raise (leg press)



#4

4x H bar pull downs

4x seated one arm rows

4x plate loaded shoulder press

5x lateral raise (superset with 20s rest)

4x reverse fly machine

4x lateral raise cable

5x hanging leg raise



#5

4x JM press

4x Bicep curl

4x seated tricep extension

4x seated high single arm curl (machine)

4x tricep extension

4x spider curls

8x calf raise (leg press)





As far as gear goes…I’m gonna use Test, NPP, Primo and some HGH. All gear was purchased thru Napsgear. And I’m running Dragon Pharm gear.



For Test, I’ll start at 300mg/wk and increase 50mg/wk till I get to 500mg/wk

NPP: start at 200mg/wk and increase 50mg/wk till 400mg/wk

Primo: will mirror NPP.

HGH: will start at 2IUs in AM and increase 1IU every 3wks for max of 4IUs split 2IUs in AM and 2 in PM.

So I’ll be at Test 500mg/wk; NPP 400mg/wk and Primo 400mg/wk and max HGH of 4IUs/d…if I can tolerate that much.



Start date will be Jan 7th. I’m taking the last week in Dec completely off as I travel for the holidays. First week in Jan will be to get reacclimated to the gym and Jan 7 is go time.

Lastly, I know a lot of you guys like to see daily updates regarding workouts and diet etc. I just don’t have time for that. My goal is to put down a weekly summary so hopefully that will be enough.

@Echos waiting for them updates, and i waited on your other log and unsubbed haha

 

[stevesmi]

Please make sure and post the weights used on each set. Good luck on your log!!!

Yes for sure because a lot of people like to copy how people are training

 

[ballin2504]

Yes for sure because a lot of people like to copy how people are training

I e learned a lot of training methods from these logs over the years

 

[Masonic Bodybuilder]

I would swap out the egg whites for whole eggs. That is where the real nutrition is.

 

[Noah Wixx]

Its interesting how ao many different styles of training and approach go into every individual log, I enjoy reading them all.

when will you be on max NPP and test dose. Should grow well when you hit the max dose on this cycle. Really like the HGH use as well. Hope HGH came from @domestic-supply.com
