Bros. Which scale are you using to measure body fat?
Those scales that you step on are not accurate.

 

[ROIDDERS]

I don't think you're 22% body fat, you're probably 18 or 19%.
Maybe even less.

 

[chesty]

Daily supplements is pretty crazy. You've got a lot of things you're using.

 

[Ulter]

Definitely get in an effort to upload what you can.

That will help us kind of mold things together.

It definitely starts with the diet. That's got to be your first priority with this.

 

[2Thick]

Can you post up that electrolyte packet that you're taking?

A lot of those have a lot of additives in there.

 

[Vadim Fedorov]

You don't have to count your calories precisely. It's more important to really post up what your individually eating.

 

[Wootoom]

You should help out your fiance and do some meal prepping.

There's some great ideas that are on different logs on here.

 

[JasonPriest]

My advice is get a air fryer. You can cook just about anything in there.

 

[BodyMonster34]

Bro, I'm looking forward to seeing what kind of results you get.

I hope you're eating red meat. That's what makes men into real men.

 

[Quadsweep]

Nice job on this update. Taco soup. Sounds really good. Just be careful on how much seasoning you're using.

Bros. Which scale are you using to measure body fat?
Those scales that you step on are not accurate.

Using a Wyze Scale X scale at home. I know it’s not 100%, but assumed it was close. What would be the best way for me to get a more accurate measurement? I’d love to be able to compare that to the scale.

Daily supplements is pretty crazy. You've got a lot of things you're using.

I agree, I’ve ordered some N2 to replace most of these. Will make it much easier, and better coverage.

Can you post up that electrolyte packet that you're taking?

A lot of those have a lot of additives in there.

I typically use either the Stur Hydration or Propel packets. Once I’m home I’ll post the exact ones. Recommend cutting these? I typically use these to help cut the taste of the apple cider vinegar, and it seems to help give a little extra pep in the mornings. Any better recommendations?

My advice is get a air fryer. You can cook just about anything in there.

I help when I can, I actually enjoy cooking. During the week I leave home by 4:30am and don’t typically get back until around 8pm. She works from home and has much more flexibility, and enjoys cooking as well. She doesn’t care for leftovers much, but I don’t mind at all. We have an air fryer, and crock pot, so I’ll soon be going back to just prepping my crockpot/air fryer meals on Sundays for the week. I eat a lot of red meat, love beef. It’s probably 85%+ of the meat that I eat. I’m trying to actually cut a little bit of that back and add some fish in a day or two. Salmon burgers have been really good lately.

I’ll keep posting daily and continue to update. Next weeks meals will be more dialed.

Push hard brother

 

[Npcclassicphysique champ]

Today, nearly non-existent. I walk about 5 miles a day just doing normal work/movment, but I know that’s not what we’re looking for. It’s something I’m going to have to start prioritizing. Will most likely have a couple days dedicated to heavy cardio, and will have 15-30mins a day minimum on the treadmill. Knowing I wasn’t going to get out of the gym until right before close tonight and wouldn’t be able to do any cardio, I just made sure I kept my heart rate elevated best I could. Cardio will increase.

@GDDY its best not to do heavy cardio dont burn out, go slow 20-30min before and after training try to schedule it bro

Will b following. Should b good

8am - Oikos pro yogurt shake

10:15am - Kodiak Peak Oatmeal

12:30pm - 1 cup of Pasta from yesterdays dinner (Protein plus noodles and Italian sausage) and 1 cup of taco soup from Monday’s dinner. All mixed together for convenience.

3pm - Oikos pro yogurt & Good & Gather (Target brand) Protein bar

8:45pm - Chicken fajita bowl. Chicken breast, sautéed veggies, rice. All weighed out in the app.
Protein shake, and 66g Peanut Butter.

10pm: Supps and sleep.

Wednesday Workout
- Legs
*Squats: 3x10/1x5 heavy/1x10
*Body Weight Standing calve raises between squats: 2x25/2x20/1x25
*Seated Leg Curls: 3x10-12
*Good girl/Bad girl between leg curls: 3x10-12
*Leg Extensions: 3x10
*Glute thrust: 3x10

I had exactly 45 mins to do today’s workout before the gym closed, so heart rate stayed pretty elevated. I plan to hit more legs on Saturday or Sunday and cover missed lifts. I’ll also have much more time tomorrow and will get cardio in, pinky promise lol. My Monday-Wednesday is typically non-stop, so other than the average 5 miles I walk a day, cardio will be pretty minimal there. I’ll have much more time Thursday-Sunday to make it happen.

I attached a couple pics of my lunch and dinner, as well as log from app tracker. I also included a pic of the electrolyte packets that were asked about. I take these first thing in the morning with my water and apple cider vinegar. I’m interested to know if I should cut these out, or if there’s a better option. As always, thanks for everything so far, and all advice welcome.

Morning bro’s. First log here. I’ve been on the forum for years for research/ideas, but finally decided time it was t post myself. I’m getting married in June, and have goals for that date. All advice/opinions/ideas welcome. I’m late to starting this, my apologies. But here we go.

My history: I’m 29, 5’10. I’ve been in the gym since 16, but “wavy”. Great shape in Highschool, college hit and training dropped to 3-4 times a week. Then post college I was able to get back in the gym consistently, but didn’t focus on my diet much until about 2 years ago. I was around 175lbs and 15%bf then. I then got engaged in December of 23 and spent the next year basically putting on the “honeymoon” weight. Didn’t really care what I ate, drank a lot of beer, only trained about 2-3 times a week, and they weren’t hard sessions. That got me to 170lbs and 22%bf as of Jan 1.

Now I’m back to 5-7 days a week of training, no alcohol, and nutrition is 2350 Cals a day at a 35% Carbs - 35% Protein - 30% Fat Macro split. I’m trying to stay in a bit of a deficit to recomp and cut some of the gained bf and let the training and gear add the muscle. My day job is a lot of sitting and I only burn 4-500 cals through the day. My goal by wedding day (June 14) is 180lbs and 15% bf, anything more than that is icing. I also have a long weekend trip at the end of February (about 7 weeks) and want to be in as good as shape as possible by then for that.

Previous Cycles: Past cycles have included (always Test-E base), Test solo @ 500mg, EQ, Rad-140, Anavar, MK-677. Not all at once, separate cycles. Never much, I try to get away with the most using the least. For example, I’ve learned that I react really well to Test-E at 3-400mg/week with minimal sides. I also do not react good to MK-677 and get terrible headaches with it when blood pressure rises, so I avoid that.


Training:
Monday: Chest/tri’s

Tuesday: Back/bi’s

Wednesday: Cardio

Thursday: Legs

Friday: Arms

Sat: Cardio and anything that feels it can be worked (typically chest and legs)

Sunday: Rest or light mobility training


Current Cycle:
Test-E: 350mg/Week for 12 weeks (Pin on Mondays and Thursdays)

Rad-150: 15mg/day for 10 weeks (weeks 2-12)

I also have Superdrol on hand, but have never ran it. I’m debating throwing in for a micro dose at week 5 for 10 days at 5mg/day. And possible again at end of cycle on week 10. Good idea or drop it?

I started this cycle on 1/07 and will run for 12 weeks. I’ll post current stats tomorrow morning, start of week 3.

Blood work was done pre-cycle and all was in the green.


Daily Supps:
Multi-Vitamin

ZMA

NAC - 1200mg

Milk Thistle - 100mg

L-Tyrosine - 750mg

Krill Oil - 1000mg

Kre-Alkalyn

Hi-Tech Pharm Protein Powder - 25g (as needed)


PCT:
Perfect PCT



Let me know input, thoughts, or anything I should change in my log. Again, goal is minimum of 180lbs and 15%bf by June14, but I think I can beat this, especially with everyone’s help. How does my cycle look? Should I run the SD or leave it out? If so, how does the mini-cycle I proposed sound? Should I adjust my cycle/diet/training any? I’m looking forward to hearing advice from everyone and hope that you can help through this cycle and into the next to have me ready for June. Thanks bros

@GDDY Good decision to start the log...........

@GDDY Good decision to start the log...........

Thanks man, only wishing I would’ve started sooner, but glad I started when I did. It’s been a huge motivator for me. I’m working arms as I type rn. I’ll post my days food and training later tonight.
