Approved Log Teams Gains Man Recomp - Testosterone Masteron NPP cycle - Log Journey

[Npcclassicphysique champ]

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.

lets get back on track bro

Week 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.

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

@Alex1909 Good progress bro...keep it up.......

Week 11 of log:

Officially second last week of my time using, Raptor Labs products and me documenting it. They have been amazing to say the least, products have really helped my body composition, although I’m still the same weight.. ish, (currently 91kg fasted this morning) I feel allot leaner and allot stronger. Keen for the next phase of my journey.

It has been a much better week, diet and training wise. Still not 100%, but would say 80% at least. Strength has gone up again this week, with good form and still in a steep deficit.

Concludes the week, keen to work with Sassy and continue to work with Gains Man as next week will be my last log with Raptor Labs. I feel like I’m back on track and in a good head space again, few more kgs shed and I’ll be able to eat a decent amount of food every day again.
Couple of photos I took yesterday, abs are still hiding but starting to make an appearance with good lighting.
