@Alex1909 solid work right here!Week 9 of log:
Bit late this week due to Covid lol, tested positive last Friday and have been stationed in the house ever since haha. It’s been rough to say the least, sitting back at 93kg fasted this morning and finally feeling slightly better. Haven’t been to the gym since Friday as soon as I tested positive, diet hasn’t been too bad but have struggled to eat sufficient meals for the past 5-6days.
The week started off well tho and work has finally given me some reprieve, so time to dial back in and get on track!

Really focusing on form and higher volume warmups working with weight that has been testing my limits on top sets to keep the PO happening over time. Starting to get compliments from the lads in the gym but I have a long way to go and need to get the diet back on track. Struggling to get cardio done this week but being sick has definitely contributed to the lack of activity.
you look great bro @Alex1909 i like the arms and shoulders real pumped legitWeek 10 of log:
It’s been a good week coming back from sickness, strength took a small blow but it feels good to be back at it nonetheless. Sleep has been amazing, HGH is working wonders (.12.5eod) joints feel good but still early days. Have lowered the weights and upped the volume in the gym this week, keeping intensity high but load a little lower. Diet has been 85% on point, have given in to some sweet treats more than I’d like too, but shit happens. Hydration has been great, carb intake could be higher and I’ve been trying to up the protein to 250g p/d but just under that atm.
Sitting at 92kg fasted, abs are peaking through but I’ve been really slack with cardio/core this week, trying to slowly get back into the swing of things. Covid fucked my respiratory and sinuses, hence why the cardio has been low, NEAT has been reasonable which I’m happy with. Also this log and my sponsorship with Raptor Labs will be coming to an unfortunate end within the next fortnight. Nothing bad, I just haven’t asked Raptor To extend my sponsorship, I’ve throughly enjoyed logging for them and can’t speak highly enough or their service and products.
On another note, Sassy’s Pharmaceuticals will be my new sponsor and I will be starting a new log after week 12 of this log. I will be going for a more milder cycle next time around. (Test E 500/Primo 400/ HGH 3iu/ Reta.
Here’s my training for the week and some activity summary’s. Went back to gym on Wednesday once I tested negative because I’m not a grubby cunt.

Sunday:
A little treadmill work, nothing crazy.
Conclusion:
Chest is looking a little fuller (imo), biceps/Triceps look smaller, shoulders seem developing for the first time, traps don’t look like they belong to my tiny frame and I’ve forgotten I have legs (outer quads aren’t too shabby, calves are hectic)lol. All in all I think I’ll get back on track and dial back in 150%, cardio/core will be priority again once I’m 100% and diet will be top of the discipline ladder.
Thanks again for everyone’s constructive criticism, advice, knowledge and support, it means allot, truly.
Cheers![]()
Will do mate, thanks for the kind words and feedback! Macros are sitting around 2k calories, 230p/120c/70f but I haven’t been strict on my tracking, I just know the measurements from being on 2k and the same meals for so long. Have been indulging these fast few weeks tho, hence why I need to get back to strict tracking.you look great bro @Alex1909 i like the arms and shoulders real pumped legit
i do see in your training some improvements we can make especially before after cardio
macros now sure as i see your sharing but not sure of your foods?
on the change at week 12 talk to both your sponsors please let them know
