turkey breast my favorite too
As promised here are some photo progress updates.
I think I found a smarter way to take the photos so the quality should be better now. Think I still need to improve it some.
I still don't know how to pose, I'll work on that.
Just for reference I'm taking my 4th injection tonight, so end of week 2 on cycle. 200mg test c, 100mg primo 100 per week and 20mg anavar pre-workout daily.

LOL you're an animal bro!Try 2lbs lol I did that before@BeMe
We're pretty blessed that we enjoy lean meat. I've always felt for the guys who love the fatty cuts. It must be extra tough when you don't even enjoy your protein.Try 2lbs lol I did that before
If you at 2lbs of dark meat turkey you definitely wouldn't look the way you do lol
@BeMe awesome log right here bro!

Took my 4th bi weekly injection yesterday. My training went well but nothing crazy. I thought because I had 2 rest days I would crush it, but not much progression on weight or reps yesterday. Tricep reps decreased and delts stayed the same as last week. Maybe it was just an off day.
Someone asked if I could post some pictures of meal, so here's a picture of the beautiful dinner my wife meet me last night. She's super supportive of me and my goals. I'm a lucky guy

Same dude i get nowhere near that lol.
A major game changer for me was getting the Eight Sleep mattress cover and pod. Changed everything as far as my sleep quality goes.
I also crash out pretty hard when I sauna right before bed.
Sleep quality is #1 bro @BeMe
Log Day 13
Training was pretty average these last two days. Nothing spectacular. Not sure if I'm a bit sick, or if I've hit some kind of plateau. Diet and sleep have both been good.
I thought after two rest days I'd be hitting great numbers this week but that hasn't been the case.

You have heaps of data, do you have, heart rate variability by any chance?
Second question, how's the nips?
Could it be high estrogen

I would have never even considered Eight Sleep pod before reading your log...but now i'm intrigued. My wife constantly wants her side hot, I need my side cool... over the last 20 years we have gone through more heating pads and various dual sided matress warmers than I can count. Sounds like you recommend the Eight Sleep Pod....it's slightly pricey, but I think I may need to check it out. Thanks for this.
HRV agrees your tired,
How much test are you on?
Estrogen could be to low from the Primo as well
My wife and I are the exact same as you too. Her side is hot and mine is cool. I don't know how they sleep like that lol.
It's amazing. Your bed is perfect temp every night when you hop in. It adjusts for ambient temp and adjusts throughout the night according to how you're sleeping. It's really pricey but my wife and I both say we can't live without it now.
Ya it's weird because I don't feel tired and I'm sleeping well. Test is at 200mg per week
@BeMe really good job man. A lot of details in the update.
One thing I'm noticing the past couple days is I feel dry, like I'm not hydrated or something. I've been drinking electrolytes in the morning and evening. I drink A LOT or water throughout the day.
I've heard about the anavar pumps during daily life. I don't think it's quite that but I do feel certain muscles tightening up, kind of like cramps. It seems to happen whenever I'm working on ladders or in awards spots. I think the sustained isometrics bring it on.

@BeMe dry like dry mouth or dry like dry skin?
No just like dry internally almost. It's kind of a weird description I know. Back in the day I used to get cramps and pull muscles a lot when I didn't drink enough water. It's feels like that sort of. My muscles feel tight like they're about to pull whenever I'm using them for an extended period of time.
E.G. I'm up on an extension ladder working and then when I come down 20 mins later my upper glutes feel like they're about to tear when I'm walking down the ladder.
how much electrolytes you taking in daily bro? @BeMe potassium magenesium sodium and even taurine
I take 3g taurine in the morning and afternoon
I take the biosteel hydration mix in the morning and afternoon also.
Maybe the biosteel doesn't have enough potassium or sodium in it because I just compared it to the gorilla mind hydration mix I also have and the gorilla mind has way more. I'm gonna try taking the gorilla mind tomorrow and see if that helps and I'll report back.
Thanks for the help bro!
post pics of the nutrition facts on the electrolytes please bro
this is not enough by far bro you need grams of potassium and sodium @BeMe
even if you drank this you'd need to add sodium to it like 1/2 tsp of baking soda
So I should just use the Gorilla Mind one and add 1/2 tsp of baking soda?
I'm trying to gain lean mass. I'm hoping to add 10-15lbs of muscle. It looks like my weight is staying the exact same since I cut carbs to 250 per day, but it's only been for a week. I'm going to keep tracking and see how it goes.

1/2 tbs of baking soda should be enough to start, also about 1/3 tbsp of pink salt.

If you want to gain lean mass, you still need to moderate carbs. Consider cycling carbs, big leg day push 350 grams and small days or rest days drop to 200 grams even 150 with higher fats, PROTEIN is key to growth its a fact, you need to keep it high. @BeMe
Roger that. I have both in the pantry and will start tomorrow morning. Switching to the high sodium and potassium mix did help today. I felt very little risk of cramping while working on ladders today
Cycle Notes to Date
April 11, 2025 - Test C 100mg, Primo100 50mg
April 12, 2025 - 10mg Anavar sublingually pre-work out, felt ok, added a rep or two to first sets in movements, towards end of workout, 1hr after dosing, felt a lot of extra energy.
20mg anavar sublingually everyday, feeling great
April 14 - 100/50mg all good
April 18 - 100/50 still good
April 21 - 100/50 still good
April 21/22 - anavar didn't seem to have as much of an effect on workout output
April 23 - Pretty good workout again, anavar still isn't having as big an impact as before but still definitely noticeable

Should I stay the course at 200mg test, 100mg primo, 20mg anavar for week 3 or is it time to adjust a bit? @LevButlerov
Cool I just figured out how you guys do the @ thing lol. I don't do social media or anything so this is kind of new to me.

Sounds like a plan. Stay the course and keep logging everyday. I'll start manipulating my carbs and fats from now on like you said. Keeping protein high is no prob for me. My appetite is up since going on cycle, so eating is not an issue. I'm getting much better at managing my macros too and hitting my targets well now.Stay the course for now, at least until week 4.
Thanks so much @LevButlerov I'm learning so much from you. You're literally making me a better person. Like LITERALLY lol
@Npcclassicphysique champ
Here's a screenshot of the potassium and sodium I got just through the food I ate today. Looks like most of it comes in the afternoon and evening, so adding the baking soda and sodium in the morning to my breakfast supplement shake should definitely help.
I checked and my morning multi vit contains 200mg of potassium so with the electrolyte mix I'm getting 745mg of potassium and 3.3g of Taurine to start the day off.
Will add salt and baking soda tomorrow morning and check in again tomorrow evening. Thanks

I like your potassium level
Whew...atleast something is good lol. I've never investigated macros or micro nutrients. My focus was always performance/longevity supplementation and exercise science. I'm realizing now I have massive gaps to fill to really optimize my overall health and fitness. Just changing my electrolyte supplement today had a pretty immediate effect on my well being. It will be fun to learn and make more adjustments/improvements.I like your potassium level

Didnt have time to train last night so it became a rest day. My body felt pretty tired by the end of the day. Hit my 10k steps at work. Today's going to be another hectic day on the job.
Drinking my baking soda as I type, tastes pretty gross in my morning shake lol. I think I'll mix a separate shot of baking soda from now on.

@BeMe Good job, man. Another great update, you're tracking things beautifully, keep it going.
@BeMe bro nice, i like your sleep stats.
i gotta try that out too, i have hard time sleeping on tanker
@BeMe excellent job on this setup! looking really good
@BeMe Excellent work on this update. I really like the different training style that you're doing in the stats that you keep track of.
@BeMe You are looking fantastic. Nice job on the Sleep metrics. There's lots of different things that you're doing which is really good for tracking.
What's tanker? I can never tell when you're serious lol.
@BeMe bro tanker as in oil tanker. it where i work aside from family ranching
on tanker we sleep under deck in room. some days got like 20 sweaty dirty guys sleeping on top of each other lol. it not easy to sleep. the corporate bishes sleep in the nice rooms up top. it like titanic ship where the poor slept lower deck and was last off ship. if tanker blows off the corporate bishes get first dibs off ship
Oh so an actual tanker. I thought for sure it was a euphemism for something else. Where do you guys transport the oil to and from?

BM is on some oil jobs I heard too.
Ahhh it was a euphemism lol. Figured as much
Cutting carbs down is always tough to adjust to initially.
Yea it takes some figuring because I didn't even know certain things have carbs. Before I started tracking macros I was eating really low carb and fat, like sub 100 each. I was having issues on my bloodwork though. My body wasn't recovering, but when I upped my fat and carbs all my blood markers got in optimal range

Started week 3 on cycle last night.
Still at 200mg test, 100mg primo, 20mg anavar
Pretty sure my body is fighting off some type of sickness at the moment which is leading to sub quality recovery. Feeling ok though.
My training was really good yesterday. Felt as though my strength and muscle endurance was up. Added weight and reps to a few different exercises.

@BeMe what sickness? did you up your vitamin D and C and multis?
Not sure what sickness. I wasn't all the way sick, but just feeling a bit off. I usually get sick after a weekend with my little nieces and nephew, they're germ factories lol.
I got an alert Thursday morning that my respiratory rate was higher than normal the previous night.
I already take absorbent amounts of D and multis lol. I take the recommended daily amounts of two different multi vitamins and 6000iu of D with 1500iu K2 everyday. I know people say to take C when you're getting sick but it's never helped me personally for some reason.

Higher dose of vitamin C will help for sure, wont hurt, get 5 grams in there and try with elderberry too @BeMe
I've tried those emegen c packs before but nada. I'll try some tablets next time and see if that works better.
My immune system is generally pretty strong, I rarely get actually sick. I worked all through COVID and never got it once. The only time I can remember actually being sick over the last few years was after I was forced into taking the COVID vaccine for work lol. That knocked me on my ass for 3 days.
@BeMe bro i work on the tanker and get my hands dirty. basically i the guy they call when their a problem that they need a real man to fix. engineers on tanker call me up, they too poosy to get hands dirty
Cool bro..so a mechanic then. Nice. I'm an electrician so I get to deal with a bunch of soft hand engineers too
@BeMe bro i like to work with my hands.
Ya me too.
For sleep you should try CBD tincture (Oil). If your company drug tests you, you can get ones that have no THC in them, but the ones with a bit of THC seem to work better. This is the one I use.

Up north with the family again this weekend for Moms bday. I had my favorite avocado toast for breakfast and that blasted up my fats for the day.
Trained yard and got some extra steps in to try and offset the high fat. Still feeling strong. Had to run a modified program because of the lack of equipment up here.
Sleep is never as good up here as at home but I try to make up for the lack of quality with quantity.

If you've done 5 grams of vitamin C it would boost your immune system no matter the type. Liposomal vitamin C is the best but hard to use. @BeMe
Weekly Update 3
Test 200mg, Primo 100mg, 20mg anavar/daily
Just got back home so don't have time for update pics. Will add some when I get a chance.
Training progression has continued on the same dose as I started with. Tomorrow night will be my 6th bi weekly injection.
Sleep has been good, weekly results below.
Weight is unchanged. I seem to have stopped gaining this week.
All other bio markers seem good. Recovery was worse that usual this week but I did feel like my body might be battling off a bit of a sickness.

Yesterday was a rest day and my mom's bday. Went up to the family cottage and had some family time. Managed to get 14k steps in on a hike and clearing up some trees that were down after a recent storm.
I forgot my electrolytes and by the end of the day I did notice a bunch of joint pain. My knuckles, one big toe, wrists, knees, and one elbow felt dry and achy. It got progressively worse into the evening, but I feel good so far this morning. Slept well last night but went to bed later than usual.

@BeMe bro This a nice layout, man, I like the different things you're doing and the Sleep stats.
Thanks bro. I feel like I'm getting more peeled but losing size, maybe it's in my head. I'm gonna take some measurements tomorrow to see. It's only been 2 1/2 weeks on cycle so can't expect much just yet. Just gotta keep hitting the targets set out for me by the EVO family and trust the process
Not in your head, Intramuscular fat lose most likely?
