Approved Log First log TRT+ tirzepatide to testosterone anavar Log

Tough days, weeks and workouts go hand in hand, better you had a bad workout got it in, then not doing one at all.
I would never say bad workout. I love being in the gym. Only tough part is when the body is exhausted and it don't want to do what the mind says let's go! I love being there either way. To me it's like the saying about fishing. A bad day lifting is better then a great day working! Lol
 
psyllium husk powder you can buy only no flavor just buy the powder mix with water and drink it bro its easy
@kcates i do think you should stick to TRT bro though orals no need just trt a dsome eq would work
i wasnt aware you're on glp-1 peptides when did you start? i must have missed this
P. Husk has been ordered!
 
Weekly Summary: This week was a tough week. Failed at a couple of my main lifts trying for 3x5. I will drop to 3x3 next week and attempt those weights again. I changed up my training this week to reduce some of the amount of training I been doing. Work was extra physical labor this week so I been exhausted. I changed up my Wednesday shoulder work to more rehab weights. Just light and going through strict movements instead of heavy and doing partials. Felt good and got some nice pumps in the shoulders from the higher reps lighter weight. My back pumps were better at the end of the week and got back to 30 minutes of treadmill work. This coming week is my last week of Oxandrolone. Just finished week 7 of it. Honestly I haven't felt any different on the Var and testosterone vs just on my testosterone for TRT. I don't know if that is a good thing or a bad thing. I will get my blood work done in a couple of weeks and see how it is. Today I am doing nothing but resting and hanging with the family. My body needs it. Great week and looking forward to the next one!
@kcates It sounds like you made smart adjustments to your training this week based on your fatigue level. Prioritizing rehab and lighter weights when needed is key for long-term progress. It's good that you're focusing on proper form and getting good pumps even with reduced weight. Don't be discouraged about missing lifts – sometimes deloading or reducing weight is necessary to rebuild strength. It's interesting that you haven't noticed a significant difference with the Var. Your upcoming bloodwork will provide valuable insights.

Lol that is very true i agree brother, i know how you feel and what you mean, most days my workouts dont start till 10pm with work and daily life, i understand the tired part very well.

being tired is a good thing bro ;)
 
I have had side effects at time. Mainly burping all the time was one and just feeling sick at the stomach after my shot. I use to take my shot on Friday so i had the weekend to get over feeling bad if I did. Most of this was in the beginning when I first started the drug or if the dose was increased to high like when it was increased to 10. 7.5 seems to be the sweet spot for me now. i may try and go back down to 5 soon and see how I do there again. I am going to talk to the doc when i see him in a few weeks and see what he thinks.
you should switch to retatrutide bro thats a much better GLP-1 and umbrella labs has it
we have a long thread about it

I think my body has added some muscle and I believe my biceps veins are showing better but it's hard to tell anything about myself when I see myself in the mirror everyday. I hear some people say they feel the Var big time like vigorous Steve but to me if feels the same as I have been feeling since I started my TRT. Now when I started TRT that was like night and day notice difference because I was low at 158 total T on both test I had to take a month apart to get insurance to cover it. I felt way happier, recovered better, sleep got better, stress levels went down, libido through the roof, and strength started going up. I bought Ultima pharmaceuticals and verified the number on my package on there website. Maybe I just react better to testosterone then var, is that possible? This is my 8th week of Var and I will be done. How long after I take my last pill should I take photos to see a before and after? That will tell a better story along with my blood work I got coming up in a few weeks.

Food porn: same meal just showing the scale before I killed it. That was some pork loin that I cooked up in the skillet for breakfast! My son was suppose to buy eggs on his way home the night before and he let me down. First morning in over a year I didn't get my eggs. Wife made sure it didn't happen again. She got some eggs that day.

Tough week, but solid commitment to the grind. That injury sounds brutal, hope it heals quick so you can get back at it fully. It's smart to consider a deload if you can't hit your deadlift targets; listen to your body and make sure you're ready for the next push. Enjoy that well-deserved weekend break! @kcates I honestly think you should switch for mass weight mode to much lighter weights and more reps.
 
Yeah if I miss my 3x3 tomorrow. I am going to take a week of cutting the weights by half then go back to 5x5 at 85% of my 5 rep maxes for 5 weeks. Then I will start my program that will have me peak the week before my birthday. That is a 11 week block of training. Then after my birthday going to do a cutting phase while doing iso lateral training. Then some hypertrophy training. That should get me through to the 1st week of the new year. Then If I am feeling good no injuries I can go back to strength training. That sounds like the plan. In the new year I may do some strongman focused strength training. Not sure there yet. I have time to figure out the new year specifics out.
 
Good morning fam! I have sat here trying to get motivated to lift today. I will get it done but it's hard. That woke AF seems not even in me. I hope I pull my 3x3 but I also hope I don't because I need the deload that comes when I do fail it. Alright let's go and see what happens! 3x3 365lbs.

You should consider leaning out IMO :D

Just watched again, HUGE lift though ! EVO family support for the big lift there. @kcates
 
Play it day by day. If you feel rested and strong go for 375 if not then deload.
