@s.gentz been following you for years since your first show. IMO looking at your pics now, lean bulk recomp is the way. And make sure to update us.
Steak next time we need 2 steaks
Agreed. I’ve been growing tired of the US culture. I think it’s going in the wrong direction.
Would prob be early 2026. Spent a lot of money this year already between or vacation and some improvements on our home. Also still have a ton to do at our property this summer.
I’ll be logging again. Prob sparatic for now until I start growing again in another couple months.@s.gentz been following you for years since your first show. IMO looking at your pics now, lean bulk recomp is the way. And make sure to update us.

I prob could have eaten two tonight after the killer chest/shoulder workout today.
@s.gentz sporadic or not its good to see you, love your updates especially the grilled food
It was great. Much needed vacation
Beautiful view
@s.gentz thats BEAUTIFUL damn nice place
would like to see you update more and more how about your next training? throw it up
Will do. I’ll outline the plan I’m starting in the morning.
Still trying to figure out weights/reps. Hopefully will be able to get that figured this upcoming week and then start the block proper.
@s.gentz awesome! please do I am subbed again
Albright, enough being lazy! I'll keep this log going until I start gaining again and then i'll start a new log.
Been slowly dieting since the beginning of December. Went from 223lbs to 198lbs on february 23rd. Lost virtually no streagth during the diet. Pretty much all lifts remained the same. Went on vacation for a week and didn't really hold back the eating but didn't eat shit either. Just a lot more carbs than i have been during the diet. When I returned from vacation on 3/2 i weighed in at 204lbs. Plan is to keep cutting at a slow pace until may then begin to grow again. Planning to compete in April 2025 if all goes well.
So currently this is where i'm at.

This is a lower volume high intensity plan that was brutal this last week.
Current pic-204lbs- No pump, was just starting the WO.
I think dropping 8-10 more lbs will be a great start to a clean bulk. Last year after the show i hard a hard rebound and started the bulk dirty and it was too late once i cleaned it up. Just got a bit fluffy at 223lbs. This year will be different. Bulk cycle will be laid out once i'm closer to starting it.

What’s your goal stage weight for 2025? How much mass you want to add?
I seem to be averaging around 5lbs/year. Would like to do a little better this year.
I think 180-185 on stage is doable.
Well IGF-1 will definitely help you achieve this goal. I use it on lifting days only after workout before my post workout meal. I use 3iu gh 1 hour before lifting. I am also going to start using IGF-DES on my next 4 week IGF-1 stint. The most important thing to know about IGF-1 is to make sure and destroy as many muscle fibers as possible because it seeks out damaged muscle fibers first before going to organs and gut. I plan on putting on 30-35 lbs of lean gains in the next year.
