I love the high carbs, I am up to about 900 and it feels great man, keep pushing them up
Hey brother, why dropping the test and tren before bloods?
How much longer on this blast?
my daughter tried that one time as a kid. I ended up whipping out the belt and force feeding her the fat. I don't know why your parents didn't do that to you.
Yea when I posted my log and I looked through my pics I realized I forgot to take a pic of dinner and thought awww I'm gonna get it for this one. Plenty of rice and less protein than usual. COR should arrive today.bp a bit up but weight steady@BeMe
final day was well pushed it hard
waiting on bloods
thats likely hgh but if you too sore careful training please
perfect i see 600 now lets work it up!
nice
@BeMe @HarleyGuy @Allupfromhere @Pigsy @Dreamer @Freki
@waggat @Trenhead3cc @codezz @Yuri @MarkNV @rizzlekdizzle @Grumpy
Haha I'm not a metabolic machine like you bro. You're probably someone who could eat burgers and pizza and still look amazing lol. I'll do my best though. Doubt I can push anywhere near 900 but 700 might be achievable. Worried about what my body composition is gonna look like with all the added carbs though. We'll see
You don't stop your test and peds a couple days before your bloodwork? My doc always tells me not to pin within a couple days of bloodwork. Other members have also advised not pinning within a couple days too.
Not sure how much longer I'm gonna from. We'll see what my bloodwork says and how my body is managing. I had that month off while I had that bad flu and I've been back full on for about 5 weeks now. Maybe push it another few weeks but I'm just going with the flow really.
I'm glad they didn't lol. I probably woulda got endless beatings cuz that never really worked on me. They also tried the move where I couldn't leave the table until I finished everything but that didn't work either. I'd figure out ways to get rid of the food or just sit there for a few hours until I had to get ready for bed.
Really the only things I never ate was fat off meat or Brussel sprouts so those meals were a fight in my younger year until my parents finally gave in.
The fatigue just from back to back sessions this week and not a build up over a longer period?
How did the elbow go with this workout?
I can't remember, have you always pinned test ED? Even when you drop back to TRT dose? Seems pretty popular around here hey. I actually started on 3 times per week. Eventually changed to just twice a week though. I wonder if I should go back?

carbs are you going to be your win as you start doing more work and more training
I think you could have used the couple beatdowns as a child. that would have helped you avoid your issues as a young man
I think with the fatigue it's definitely a combination of both. I'm about hit 7 weeks straight of training with no deload which is fine if I get my rest days when I need them. Work has been hectic too so I'm sure that's adding to the trouble.
Elbow was surprisingly good. No trouble at all on overheads this week. A little irritated the following morning but not any worse overall.
When I started TRT I did the typical twice a week. Then I switched to EOD for a while and now ED with the Tren. I prefer the EOD or ED cuz I can use slin pins and it's much smoother. Based on what I've seen it helps control the peaks and valleys too which makes managing e2 easier. Anything over 250mg per week I need to consider adding an AI so it helps keep things consistent imo.
Oh I got plenty trust me. Belts, cooking utensils, clothes hangers, pretty much anything in reach. Probably what led to my bad temper and aggression from the time I was young lol.
It's pretty counter intuitive to beat on kids severely. Just makes them into the type of people who beat on people too. Kids are just a reflection of the behaviours they learn at home.
Yeah for me 8 weeks is usually the most I can go without a deload. Then again, I don't really cycle intensity (in terms of RIR) like a lot of people do.
Is that sub-Q with the slin pins?
Sometimes. I was beat. Never beat my kids. I won’t even fight someone if they can’t put up a real fight no matter what they do. I just deflect everything and let them wear themselves out
Yea that's another thing..I have been pushing the intensity more than usual and not really following my training program with the rir recommendation lol. I'm usually an 8 week guy as well.
Naw no sub q, shallow im
Yea with age comes perspective. From 7 or 8 up until I was 18 or 19 I walked around ready to go all the time. Starting fights with anyone over the anything. I think my line of work when I was older calmed me down and made me think about my actions and repercussions more. Then eventually I just all together smartened up.
My 2 younger brothers progressively got less beatings than I did. My youngest bronl is 8 years younger and he barely got touched, he's the calmest of us.
All my friends that were like me all got beat good at home too. I think beating your kids only leads them down a negative path in life.
It's good when guys like you break the cycle.
wow. never thought about it that way. I wonder if those beatdowns i got made me into an alpha
Naw I remember you explained what you went through as a kid and that was on a whole different level from just beatings. Your situation was survive or break so you didn't have much of a choice. Most who grew up like you wouldn't be functioning members or society, so that's probably just natural will power. I think you are the way you are in spite of what you went through.
Honestly I think there’s way more people like me than people realize. And it may have something to do with the severity. I wasn’t just beat, I was basically tortured. Well. Not basically, I was tortured. In many ways. So the first time I faced violence outside my home I was paralyzed. And later, I was able to to sort of unload the violence that I had internalized onto bullies and a few unsuspecting adults who tried me. It’s not a good thing and it’s not a good feeling and there’s just no way someone would want to relive that except maybe the few who become actual psychopaths.
Nah i always pin right up to the day, and get bloods before that days pin.
If your still building muscle might as well keep at it but obviously go by the blood work.
And also im only a couple pounds behind you now , if you come off ... well ill be bigger
Well, I consider myself definitely a functioning member of society. It just depends the way you look at it.
Aint that the truth. I think if you're of a certain age beatings were the norm and it seems like this generation of parents doesn't really continue the cycle which is really good imo. I think you definitely are the norm instead of the exception thankfully
Interesting. I'm gonna ask my doc about that in my upcoming consult and see what he thinks.Nah i always pin right up to the day, and get bloods before that days pin.

I took a little jump this morning cuz I had a cheat meal last night. 206.8lbs. Maybe I'll eat more shit food to pull a gap LOL
Sounds like I need to stay on Tren indefinitely since we're in direct competition now lol
I'd agree for sure. I mean you're an engineer, so more than just functioning, excelling member of society.
A lot of people who went through what you did would be at the bottom of a bottle or hooked on drugs collecting government assistance. Just shows the type of will power you have
You are one healthy dude. Sheesh
Nice looking panel bro. Nothing too alarming there
Lol Freki approves
Nice blood work , looking healthy still.
Maybe I need to up my Tren dose and skew these markers a little bit lol
Yea it was a bit of a surprise honestly. The way I've been burning the candle at both ends I expected a high crp. Who knew Tren could make you healthier. Guess I need more hahaNice looking panel bro. Nothing too alarming there
Looks like I can stay on for a very long time and keep putting on more weight for our competition haha
Those damn wooden spoons?
You deserve a refund. The tren isn’t trenning
Markers look good. Already got your E2 back? It’s always the last for me. What about the liver and kidney markers? Are they different in Canada? They are usually the first ones I get back.
Rest days are tough but appreciated the time off prior to my bloods. Glad you mentioned that!
Rest days are tough but appreciated the time off prior to my bloods. Glad you mentioned that!
Oh ya for sure. Should probably just go 60mg ED lolbrother. Lev will totally support this approach
Yea bro the wooden ones would break so we'd get the metal ones instead. I remember my mom cracked my bro across the top of the head with a soup ladle once and the shaft just folded around his thick head lol
LMAO!!! That was a great one
Liver and kidney usually come back right away. Estradiol isn't a problem either for the basic test. I'm supposed to get a high sensitivity estrogen result too but I'm pretty sure I gotta wait on that one. Zinc and c peptide always take about a week to come back. IGF1 took almost 2 weeks once.
I think a lot of people that worked with me didn't like me. I did not get along with anybody. Like, at lunch, I would sit by myself. If I went to sit with them, they would get up and leave.
I was wondering what was going on. I didn’t know that wasn’t high sensitivity. I’m still waiting on E2 and I’ll publish that, my test, and igf1. Test came back at like 2300 so fingers crossed on E2.
Imagine the traction you would get with a video explaining how tren is good for you? Time to pack up the tools bro. You’re an influencer now
Meh who cares. So your not everyones cup of tea, that doesn't really matter. We don't need to change ourselves to suit others. Only snake ass people don't that. Just be you and if that stuff with the old employees bugs you then work on it, and if not then who gives a damn
I was actually kinda surprised cuz my estrogen shows in range but the test is above the measurable level. Tren is supposed to mess with both values. Basically I'm like 50/50 if that's an hs estrogen reading.
There's no way I'd be the first. For sure there's some young dudes out there on tik Tok doing just that right now. We're just to old to understand lol
There’s a guy, he’s a YouTuber, on tren and estradiol only for years. He’s got his shit together on the very surface. Like it is working for him last I checked, but if you watch more than a few videos he’s
not a role model? Hahaha. Like cool you’re not a methhead anymore but implying that tren made you a better person in anyway (let alone every way) is a hard sell hahaha

I missed my check in yesterday, just too busy with work to make the time. Life is crazy right now.
Did my bloodwork on Saturday and was excited to train later that day. Unfortunately an emergency call came in and I ended up working all day into the night. We had to go out with friends that night too so I committed the greatest sin and missed a training day. Worst part is with my schedule lately I just don't have the energy or time to make it up. Can't stand missing days.
Ate like shit on Saturday night cuz we went to a bar. No drinking for me but I ate fried calamari, fries, and sliders. Woke up looking like a fat ass.
Hit my training on Sunday and it didn't go as well as I hoped. Having 3 days off in a row I thought I'd kill it but it was like my body forgot how to train. Kinda felt like I got off to a bit of a slow start but picked up as I continued.
Dinner that night was fresh scallops and shrimp

Back to back updates to catch-up.
Chest day on Monday back on schedule. Another long workday messing with my eating, but I'm managing. I picked up a bigger lunch bag so I can bring more food to work with me and stop jamming all my later meals so close together.
Felt strong yesterday but I was pretty tired. Shoulda hit 2 plates for 6 fairly easily but I struggled to lockout the 6th rep. I thought I was high enough to rack it on the hooks but I bounced off the front and nearly dropped the bar on my face. I had my safety straps on but it turns out they're a bit too low on the back. Luckily I landed the bar on the safety strap pins, scarred my power rack, but saved my head. Never dropped a bench press like that before, usually I throw it towards my legs. Adjusting the straps going forward.
Other than that just another standard rushed workout. So much homework lately my life feels completely fucked. I like getting all my work done and having nothing hanging over my head, but lately I'm forever buried and can't catch up. Drowning in work. Guess it's a good problem to have but doesn't feel like it when you're in it.
Dinner was roast beef and Yorkshire puddings

Yea bro usually I'm really good at managing it all. Finding efficiency in everything I do in life is a habit I can't even escape lol. Its just too much right now. Can't keep up and just no time to.dig out. I'm hoping my this weekend I'll finalize these 2 giant bids I'm working on and be able to catch-up on the day to day a be a little normal again.What has happened to your legendary balancing of things brother?

Yeah, I have already discussed the lots of things in the air issue. You are getting mentally drained brother. The missed lift has all the hallmarks of this. It's not physical strength it is quick decisions that are now becoming a casualty. Be careful, next one might not be so fortunate....been there, done this exact thing.....got hurt.....in my back....out for a fair bit. I would spare you that.
Yea I got incredible lucky it landed on the safety strap pins. Shed a tear for my rack cuz the Ohio power bar won that fight but it coulda been bad.

Maybe more Tren is the answer haha
Tren is the one thing every young influencer has to promote to get popular it seems.There’s a guy, he’s a YouTuber, on tren and estradiol only for years. He’s got his shit together on the very surface. Like it is working for him last I checked, but if you watch more than a few videos he’s
Who would take advice from someone using Tren as their base lol
Just every new log with the word “genius” in it

Tonight's gonna be a quickly update. Sneaking it in real quick. It's my 16th anniversary with my wife so tonight's her night.
Training was good yesterday. A little bit tired but still managed to make some progression on my back movements. Everything else was stuck at the same reps as last week. Skipped my reverse hypers to spare the any unnecessary fatigue. I knew I had a big demo day at work today so that's a solid workout in itself and I needed the energy.
On the energy front, my local peptide source just landed some oral SLU and I got it today. Going to add in 250mcg with lunch and see how that goes and adjust from there if needed.
Dinner last night was beef quesadillas with sweet potatoes. Started eating the potatoes and realized I forgot to take a pic lol

@BeMethanks for updating, happy anniversary to your lady! EVO family love!
it looks good but can you start getting small drop sets back in?
id like to see how SLU is doing for you, it will be awesome add for our mega thread!
you did take a pic of most of it
thank you
@BeMe It's the low quality oils that they cook the food in that make you feel like ass the next day. Those oils really get into your body and start sticking to things and making you feel like shit. That's why I avoid restaurant or takeout food. I always prep my own food.
You want to be able to take full advantage of any cycle, but especially a Tren cycle. So it's just bad timing that your life is getting crazy right now for you. @BeMe
yes and the forum needs me. YOU need me especially. In more ways than you think.

@BeMe Bros, that's some good-looking food right there. That's what y'all eat in Canada? That looks kinda weird. Like, definitely stuff that we don't eat in Bama, that's for sure.
Good to see you pushing yourself. That's some good volume on this training. Keep it up. @BeMe
I gotta ask about that estrogen reading. It's supposed to be a HS estrogen test but I don't think it is. If it's just a standard test the Tren could be making it look elevated like my test.sorry i missed this
estrogen on the higher side i'd like to see it at 100-110 max tbh

The rest of my results came in. C pep is a little low which is new for me.

Yea I'm excited to see how the SLU goes for me. Once I get some sort of results to report I'll hop on the mega thread and share my experiences.
My energy levels are just hanging in right now I've been holding off on the intensifiers. I did throw a bicep dropset in though. This weekend when I train I should have more gas in the tank to push.
Thanks bro
Yea we don't go out those kinds places much and I don't each fried food very often so it hits me hard. Everyone was sharing food so I didn't wanna be the guy who orders my own meal. There wasn't much to choose from even if I did
Thankfully the Tren is keeping me going so it has its benefits. If I was off cycle right now there's no way I could keep up a 5 day split and I'd need a deload for sure. No matter how tired I am when I start moving the weights I snap back to life. May not be optimal, but it's making the most of a tough situation.
I love these comments from you. So raw and honest. “That’s weird” hahahaha. I remember you said something like that to me and it really made me think. It was about women I think. And I thought “yeah, hmmm, I am kinda weird” hahaha.
I also didn’t recognize the food and had to scroll up and read. Definitely not how I make quesadillas, but it’s pretty hard to screw up melted cheese

I would not treat that e2 as some scary number tbh
@BeMe , page 4 shows estradiol 138 thats not high, medium moderate I would say.seems Estradiol not sensitive or LCMS, so it looks more like a standard assay.
Those standard estradiol immunoassays are less reliable at lower ranges and can get thrown off by tren but usually to the high side like peak over 200, you dont have that.
On the c pep, 323 pmol/L is only a little low and converts to 0.323 nmol/L, which is still above the common insulin deficiency cutoff around 0.2-0.25 last time i checked. I'll recheck again a little later in the day to make sure though.
Bros, like more Spanish food from the Caribbean,
Bros, you are a weird dude for sure but it's because you're a Yankee. I'm from Alabama and I'm definitely strange to you as well.I love these comments from you.

Tren is one of those that when you step foot into the gym, you turn into an animal.
its easy for me to avoid restaurants as I'm OCD anyway.
@BeMe nice update man. Looks like it’s going really good
Congrats on the anniversary mate!
Looks like a good workout there hitting back hard! Over 200 on seated rows seems pretty serious! Any reason for three row variations and no pulldown / pull-up?
The annoying thing is when I handed them the requisition I specifically pointed out it's a high sensitivity LCMS test. I did that cuz they didn't charge me for it and I was pretty sure I had to pay. Then they double checked and said it was covered.I would not treat that e2 as some scary number tbh

Ya the c pep worried me a little bit but all my other insulin related markers look good so I'm not really sure what that could be. Maybe the Tren playing tricks?
Did you watch Bugonia yet? It's out on Amazon
It’s on my list. I’m gonna watch train dreams next.
Sinners. One battle. Sentimental value. Secret agent I’ve seen.
Sinners was fun as hell to watch. Secret agent was the best of the bunch
Yea the three variations are all focusing on different areas of my back. Trying to hit them in isolation to make sure I'm getting each part for sure.
Seated row is a moving v-bar type attachment so it goes from super narrow on extension and opens up just wide enough for me to hit a really good contraction for my lats.
T-barbell row is standing, so some good lower back from the bracing and I use a medium width grip attachment trying to focus on the mid back.
Then the chest supported row is a wide mag grip about my shoulders width. With the wide grip I pull more towards my chest level and hit the upper back really good.
Figure with the split I'm running and volume I get for my back I can focus on a little more and make sure I'm not missing anything by doing the bigger compounds.
Ok I'm gonna check out secret agent this weekend.
We watched Bugonia the other night and it was crazy. The writing and acting were so good. The ending is a bit weird though. You'll see what I mean lol
i try and watch all the best picture nominees. except cartoons, geek movies, or sci fi. just not into those genres
Sinners broke the record for most nominations. 16 total. it was a helluva movie.
Sounds good mate. I don't mind rows in general compared to pulldowns hey.
I've been doing either one-arm landmine row (standing on the landmine side) or just two arm version (which is basically a t-bar row). I find they both hit the lower lat well. Then I've been doing Meadows rows for mid back.
I've heard a lot of good things about it. Guess I gotta watch it afterall. It looked like a basic action movie in the trailers I saw so I kinda just ignored it but sounds like there's more to it.
Long form TV series' have ruined most movies for me. The story telling feels so short and predictable in modern movies. But when there's something different that comes along that's always nice
That 1 arm landmine row is kinda like a meadows row. I love both of them. Any unilateral stuff for the lats really hits good cuz you can get a way better contraction.
Do you use a incline bench for bracing when you do the 1 arm t bar?
i won't tell you what happens in it but its a combination of musical, thriller, horror, comedy and more. brilliant movie and screen play by Coogler once again. only person i could see writing a better script would be quentin tarantino
bros that true but I am in SD. you thinking of LA
You might find bracing on a bench for the T-bar helps you lift heavier and get a better stimulus.
Both awesome lifts either way tho. When I got more time I'll definitely be bringing one or both back into my training. No time for unilateral work right now lol
