bro good update, yo killin it
@macka1221 blood work is on point for your situation I would still increase cardio for the heart though***Bloodwork 30/08/23***
Pretty happy on the whole with these results 5 weeks in.
Notes:
- Test & Free test is nearly double my previous max at 600mg/week. YES DOUBLE (Thanks OzPharm)
- Best I've managed Oestradiol so 25mg EOD of Aromasin is working well
- HDL is terrible as expected but my Total Cholestorol I'm happy with, my support supps are working along with the healthy fats, may double my Omega 3's
- Absolutely stoked with Liver & Kidney results, ALT & AST in range on 50mg of Dbol daily (support supps working)
- No issues with blood count, first time running EQ so warry of this

@macka1221 I like to do slower cardio, incline treadmill walk for 30-45min.***Advice**
Lads, everyone calling for more cardio, you've been heard.
Paramaters:
- No Cardio Equipment
- 1 hour absolute max I can commit
What do you guys reccomend? can I do shorter HIIT sessions? Can I just count steps for the day? Is there a target BPM I should be aiming for and for what duration?
you guys ask me for the minute details of drugs, bloodwork, diet & training so now its your turn, give me some inspo and tips and not just 'more cardio'
1 hour cardio is plenty***Advice**

@macka1221 i want to see you go full hardcore on next routine***Weekly Update - Pt2. 12/09/23***
Gym - 04/09 - 10/09
Final week of phase 1 of my program which was moderate volume and moderate intensity which lasted 6 weeks, the next four weeks will be max effort with lower volume and high intensity (RPE 9-10 for everything). This Phase borrows concepts from AST Max-OT training philosiphy and High Intensity Training outlined by Mike Mentzer. Phase 3 will be a supercompensation phase with the highest volume which will round out the 14 weeks.
Notes:
- Rest Days - Thursday & Saturday & Sunday
- All Weight KG
- Missed 2nd Lower Session Due to Niggling Injury
