Day 13

Week 2 Reflection: Embracing Unpredictability
The past week has been hectic. I'm no stranger to life's unpredictability disrupting my fitness plans. Last Sunday afternoon and even, though I applied for leave specifically for the challenge. I received an unexpected call back to work, derailing my 4-month break plans.
With only 14 hours to prepare, I had to adapt quickly to demanding DIDO 12-hour shifts, spring heat, and a 1-hour drive each way. I had to act and think quickly to prioritize my conditioning, mobility, flexibility, and calisthenics.. Eureka... !
Fartlek - Green / Blue Zone
Fartlek training, alternating between walking and sprinting. Specifically, I'll be doing post-to-post walk-sprint intervals:
- Walk from one post to the next.
- Sprint from that post to the next.
- Walk again to recover.
- Repeat the pattern.
This 30-minute, 4-week plan (Mondays and Fridays/Saturdays) will help me build endurance, increase fat burning, and develop speed. If I feel good on the given day, I increase the volume to maximize progress.
On the same day, I'll incorporate movement preparation, 50x50x50x40 exercises and recovery blocks.
Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays are my rest days, allowing me to recover between sessions.
Nutrition Foundation
My nutrition plan is built around:
- Bone broth soups in 3 thermal flasks for on-the-go, collagen, joint health and recovery.
- Kemut, and Spelt bread for sustained energy.
- Vegetables for essential vitamins, fiber, and antioxidants roasted from the cafeteria.
- Trail Mix and banana bread.
- Electrolyte sachets to stay hydrated.
R & D Impression
I'm thoroughly impressed with the products' quality and effectiveness. My (R) Shoulder is slightly on the mend, and I can feel the improvement. As I said in previous posts. I'll continue administration of NPP alone and start the Wolverine Healing Therapy program week 12.
Going into this cycle. I had major concerns losing weight at a steady rate while on NPP. But, goodness gracious me. The R & D Primobolin is playing major a role in my weight loss journey. The Primobolin chambered with the Sustanon is smooth too. I'm so very happy with my progressive transformations and my mental state of confidence is slowly increasing too. Which only means the Sustanon is working a treat.
I mean 51 year's old and by the end of the challenge. I'm going to look ridiculous!
Supplements
See beginning 'My 5k Comeback Log Cycle: Supplements.'
Plus the addition of Coenzyme Q10 as I'm taking Rosuvastatin 10mg everyday.
Research suggests Coenzyme Q10:
1. Reduces muscle pain and weakness: CoQ10 helps mitigate muscle-related side effects of statins.
2. Energy production: CoQ10 supports energy production in cells, which can be impaired by statins.
3. Antioxidant properties: CoQ10 protects against oxidative stress and inflammation, which can be increased by statins.
4. Cardiovascular health: CoQ10 supports heart health, which is already a focus of statin therapy.
5. Potential cholesterol-lowering enhancement: Some research suggests CoQ10 may enhance the cholesterol-lowering effects of statins.
Medication
1 x Ibresartan 150mg.
1 x Rosuvastatin 10mg.

I'll be testing the new smartwatch integration for my branded app this week. That's exciting.
I've also organised 'My Comeback Log' templates for posts in advance too, as I'm back-seat driver this week! Yay!
@VOX would be nice to see your bloods when you got them in private•••
A QUICKIE!

I'm about 20mins from DIDO, 14hr shifts sux! The goal was to lose weight but gained 3kgs due to increase in caloric intake. I had to because of the heat and constant moving.
I can't undergo fasting to help with the weight loss goal because of DIDO it's too hard.
I'll bring my bf % down to 8-9% consistently to run Mast with my current cycle. Looking forward to Tren microdosing.
I'm going to commit to the cycle of injectables only nothing else except SR9009 & GW501516.

Online recommendations, as I don't want my GP to freak out because of the high Testosterone results.
Upsetting, for me logging regularly helped me with being organised, disciplined and stoic in my personal journey. I want people to know ADHD can be a beautiful and exciting life. We just have to be apply and trial techniques, methods, supplementation and medications.
Whenever you hit that wall and it's starting become overwhelming.
Be Breathe. Be Calm. Be Still.
Everything is going ok buddy! I promise!
Gotta Go! Damn long tiring days!

USSR Paradoxical Breathing Method

PDBM

The technique I'm describing is called "Paradoxical Diaphragmatic Breathing" or "Self-Hug Breathing". Taught to me by again Prof. of Bio-mechanics Dr. Igor Borisov. The time I spent with learning how to overcome severe asthma.
It's a method that combines deep breathing with a physical gesture of hugging oneself, which can help:
1. Activate the diaphragm: Encourages belly breathing, rather than shallow chest breathing.
2. Relax the body: Releases physical tension, promotes relaxation, and reduces stress.
3. Improve breathing patterns: Strengthens diaphragmatic breathing, increasing oxygenation and calmness.
Practice:
1. Stand or sit comfortably with your arms at your sides.
2. Inhale deeply through your nose, allowing your belly to rise as your diaphragm descends.
3. As you inhale, wrap your arms around yourself, giving yourself a gentle hug.
4. Exhale slowly through your mouth, releasing your hug, and allowing your belly to fall as your diaphragm rises.
5. Repeat this process several times, focusing on your breath and the sensation of the hug.
This technique can be beneficial for:
- Reducing stress and anxiety.
- Improving sleep quality
- Enhancing overall breathing and respiratory function.
- Increasing self-awareness and self-compassion.

I've been going through quite a few journals here. I'm humbled to see such amazing hard work, dedication, and conviction.
I love reading the positive threads and the genuine comments helping one another. This is moving and I'm learning a lot too!
