Intro: Hello fellow Brothers of Iron. I just turned 45yr old. 5'9, currently 249lbs and doing a cut at the moment. (I was 280lbs and fat). I have been training since I was 16 years old on and off throughout my life. I stopped training after a bad wrist injury in Dec 2017 and got out of shape and fat thanks to my injury, COVID, etc. 4 months ago I told myself I need to pick my fat ass up, stop making excuses and get to work.. SO I DID.. I have never done a cycle, though I contemplated it when I was in my 30s (Kind of wished I did now) but didn't out of fear, lack of knowledge, lack of funds, and not spending time on the forums due to a very busy job, kids etc. Now I'm older, more mature and way more dedicated than I have ever been.

I would like to learn and grow with this community and gain knowledge and get feedback from you guys on TRT (Underground way) as well as Cycling, blasting and cruising etc. I'm not into TRT Doctors milking me for money that doesn't need to be spent. If you are currently doing TRT underground, I would love to know your protocol, etc. I will probably start at 180mg. I would like to do my first cycle with Oral DBal (Kickstart), Test C or E, and Masteron. This might not be a good start, so this is also why I am here to learn. I cannot stress enough how important I value your feedback, knowledge, etc. This is also why I didn't do anything before. I didn't want to be that dumb bro who didn't do his homework and ended up with gyno or worse. Not to mention money was tight in those days and now things are better.

As long as I can remember, I'd never been LEAN. There were times I had a solid build, but I have never been diced, and that's something I want to change this time around. I want to get into the best shape of my life (probably because I'm 45 now). I'm not a fan of aging, never have been. This will be my very first log ever, and not a fan of putting myself out there but you got to do what you got to do. I'm currently around 20% BF, and dieting or shall we say a change in lifestyle.. I log my weight daily, my food daily (MyFitnessPal), Etc.

Training: I have been training since I was 16 years old. Always lifting heavy, usually between 6-10 rep range, and always to failure. I also including drop sets on many exercise's, etc. I change up my training all the time so I don't stagnate, and I do your typical workout of...

Back/Biceps
Chest/Triceps
Shoulders
Legs/Calves
Abs every single day

Cardio: Treadmill, Stairmaster, Bike, etc. Some type of fat burning mode for 40min @ 3.2 mph speed and no faster than that of steady state cardio.

I left a supplement list at the bottom, pics of meals etc. Ya. I messed up and thought I good post on both. Alcatraz informed me. I also reported this post on EVO and asked them to remove it since It was a mistake on my part.
 
@T-RexAlpha have you looked into retaturtide? i especially recommend it for you since you said you never were lean before. body memory is a tough thing to overcome in that situation. we just did a podcast about it and the stuff is amazing
I actually listened to that podcast! And I have never heard of it until then. I mean don't get me wrong. I was very lean. Like couldn't gain a ounce of fat at one point (140 lbs lean @16-17). I then started training and got my newbie gains and skyrocketed to 195 in q year with 13% BF. Bulking was easy. Loosing thr fluff once I got to where I wanted was the hard part. Dieting down. Stayin on maintenance for a good period of time, made me gain all the fat back and more. I have a better understanding now, so I am hoping to keep as much of my muscle on me and strip the fat.

if you do choose to go with reta or tirz then just be aware of the rebound effect. people will feel super hungry coming off of them and gain a lot back. so its something you need to be aware of. but the stuff is incredible and the sides are very minimal
 
Intro: Hello fellow Brothers of Iron. I just turned 45yr old. 5'9, currently 249lbs and doing a cut at the moment. (I was 280lbs and fat). I have been training since I was 16 years old on and off throughout my life. I stopped training after a bad wrist injury in Dec 2017 and got out of shape and fat thanks to my injury, COVID, etc. 4 months ago I told myself I need to pick my fat ass up, stop making excuses and get to work.. SO I DID.. I have never done a cycle, though I contemplated it when I was in my 30s (Kind of wished I did now) but didn't out of fear, lack of knowledge, lack of funds, and not spending time on the forums due to a very busy job, kids etc. Now I'm older, more mature and way more dedicated than I have ever been.

I would like to learn and grow with this community and gain knowledge and get feedback from you guys on TRT (Underground way) as well as Cycling, blasting and cruising etc. I'm not into TRT Doctors milking me for money that doesn't need to be spent. If you are currently doing TRT underground, I would love to know your protocol, etc. I will probably start at 180mg. I would like to do my first cycle with Oral DBal (Kickstart), Test C or E, and Masteron. This might not be a good start, so this is also why I am here to learn. I cannot stress enough how important I value your feedback, knowledge, etc. This is also why I didn't do anything before. I didn't want to be that dumb bro who didn't do his homework and ended up with gyno or worse. Not to mention money was tight in those days and now things are better.

As long as I can remember, I'd never been LEAN. There were times I had a solid build, but I have never been diced, and that's something I want to change this time around. I want to get into the best shape of my life (probably because I'm 45 now). I'm not a fan of aging, never have been. This will be my very first log ever, and not a fan of putting myself out there but you got to do what you got to do. I'm currently around 20% BF, and dieting or shall we say a change in lifestyle.. I log my weight daily, my food daily (MyFitnessPal), Etc.

Training: I have been training since I was 16 years old. Always lifting heavy, usually between 6-10 rep range, and always to failure. I also including drop sets on many exercise's, etc. I change up my training all the time so I don't stagnate, and I do your typical workout of...

You definitely have a lot of room to improve on your diet. I would stick to whole food options. Stay away from processed junk. Food prep is going to be crucial the meal that you put together is very solid, more of that.

@T-RexAlpha
Appreciate the info. Just looking over my diet, what would you change or add? I eat mostly whole foods besides protein shakes and that velvetta cheese I occasionally have on a chicken breast sandwich. And that crispy treat post workout. I will be changing that out though for a Carb drink.
 
@T-RexAlpha have you looked into retaturtide? i especially recommend it for you since you said you never were lean before. body memory is a tough thing to overcome in that situation. we just did a podcast about it and the stuff is amazing
I was thinking along the same lines it could be a game changing compound for him to lean out.

how about digestive supps big question bro?
 
Looking good Champ. I need to be lean and mean like your pic. Oh I have ambitions. Well done brother
You have a good base I checked your pic @T-RexAlpha but lets get more pics so we can see your full base. thanks
 
You have a good base I checked your pic @T-RexAlpha but lets get more pics so we can see your full base. thanks
Got to get rid of some more fluff first LOL. Bro, look at you guys.. Its like a bottle of encouragement to see you all this fit 😆 Everyone here is 15% or less BF. I'm around 20-25%.. Not sure if I am ready for all that until I at least 18% lol. But I'm dropping 2lbs a week. Won't be long

i think you know exactly what you can improve on. problem is with things like shakes, velvetta 'cheese', bread and crispy treat is if you eat that it ruins days of healthy eating. you don't see the successful guys on here eating that stuff for a reason

I didn't mean to ask the question and come off like a jerk, if I did, I apologize.I was legit asking. I don't do velvetta and rice crispy treats a lot, like maybe 1 a month, to keel my insanity so I dont go crazy,, but you are righ. I sincerely appreciate this comment and probably needed to hear this. Thanks brother.
 
I want to say I appreciate all this positivity, correction, knowledge, and comments you are pouring into me. It's why I said what I said in my log. I appreciate feedback, etc. This is how a community should be and I sincerely appreciate all of you guys. I know the hard work and dedication you all do day in and day out and let me just say it pushes me to keep on going, to keep my eye on the prize and to put in the work inside and outside of the gym. Feel free to take this bro under your wing any time. I promise, I'm listening and paying attention. @ROIDDERS thank you bro for setting me straight. From here on out Bread, any and all processed food is being removed from my diet. Only whole foods. ROIDDERS got me thinking, I haven't had a chance to checkout other peoples logs to see what they are doing diet wise. I will use whatever knowledge I can gain and apply it to my own. Thanks guys. I so appreciate all of you.

5g Creatine
10g Glutamine
5g Yohimbe
GAT Nitroflex Pre-Workout
1 cup fresh fruit -blueberries, banana's, etc

Post-Workout: 8-9pm
90 cal Rice Krispy Treat
5g Creatine
10g Glutamine
40g Raw Unfiltered Honey

2 Scoops of Whey Protein Isolate (Choc Peanut Butter)

Bedtime:
2 Scoops Dymatize Elite Casein Protein Powder w/water
3 Scoops Bio Gro
Omega 3 Fish Oil

Diet Cont: I change up my diet, and move my carbs around as well, depending if it's a rest day or a training day. I also eat most of my carbs around Training (Pre/Post) workout meals. I also usually buy 10-12 lbs of chicken breast (When its on sale), have butcher cut off all fat, and have them grind it up for me to make chicken sandwiches (See pic), Egg white noodles with ground chicken, etc. When I hit a Plateau in my weight loss, I take 100 calories from Carbs or more (but haven't needed to yet). I'm a creature of simplicity and habit. It does not bother me to eat the same meals day in and day out.

Pics: 1) Oatmeal w/Cinnamon, x2 Yogurt- with a scoop of Protein mixed
2) 8oz Ground Chicken Breast w/200g Jasmine Rice, Whole bag of veggies (5 cups), and some low sodium Salsa, and 30g of Hummus.
3) 8-10oz Ground chicken Breast made into patties, Ezekiel no salt Bread (Flourless), x2 Velveeta cheese slices (helps make me feel like I'm no dieting), with fresh cut cocktails tomatoes, And Hot & Spicy Mustard.

-These are just some of the things I eat. I only added them because I have seen some of you ask for food pics etc. :) Enjoy.

@T-RexAlpha nice start to the log. Looks like you have some good muscle mass from what I can tell from the first picture.
 
You have a good base I checked your pic @T-RexAlpha but lets get more pics so we can see your full base. thanks
I am going to do this even though I legit don't want to. I swear I have some type of body dysmorphia as I do not like the way I look, Especially after my injury and putting on 40 lbs.+ of fat. Currently 247.8 this morning.

Sunday Update:

Supplements: Going to add Joint support etc. 💪

Water: I drink about 3 Liters of water a day, sometimes more. I pee a lot ;)

Diet: Changing it up to be a lot more cleaner. More whole food. (I won't be dropping my Protein shakes. Protein is expensive and it helps me get in my Protein goals).

Cardio: Switching to Fasted cardio daily 30-40min (Training and non-Training Days). Steady State. 10 min warmup cardio before working out, and 30-40 min Post Workout

@stevesmi I listened to the Podcast again (Retatrutide 101 AKA LY-3437943) and I might try it out. After looking at some of the studies on it, seems very positive. TY for the recommendation.

Realistically, everyone here has body dysmorphia, not just you. It's part of the game we play. Steroid forums are full of guys with body dysmorphia, I'm one of them lol. Nothing wrong with it, it just drives you to be a better version of yourself. :D @T-RexAlpha

@T-RexAlpha preworkout meal is intense, perfect for training, but post workout try to mix whey with caseinate or egg protein (a bit salty). Goal should be 300 protein 300 carbs with 50 fat.
 
LOL. Ya, you got me. You Rock Lev. I should be way more detailed, like showing all my supplements at each meal as well etc.
Yes please do :D

looking good on the food. i like the add on of the brocolli and berries. good anti oxidants and fiber
@T-RexAlpha
 
I'm not keen on ground chicken
I also use ground chicken breast because 1) instead of a cold breast, ground chicken is easier to get down to meet my protein goals 2) I can make it into a patty for a chicken sandwich. 3) I can added ground chicken to my rice and pasta meals, chicken breast chunks per say isnt all that great if its a couple of days old as ground chicken you can simply throw it on a skillet real quick and its ready and taste good in 5 minutes.

On a different note. Im a fan of you and Steve as I listen to your podcasts a lot and enjoy your commentary and insight. Keep up the good work brother

Actually no. I feel like the curry and cumin keep my chicken tasting perfect even 2-3 days old. If it does that to you drop it and try Cumin with other non salt seasoning like paprika, etc. Also I get this Hot & Sweet mustard (10cal, zero everything else) that goes well to give it flavor when I dont use curry etc

I didn't mean to ask the question and come off like a jerk, if I did, I apologize.I was legit asking. I don't do velvetta and rice crispy treats a lot, like maybe 1 a month, to keel my insanity so I dont go crazy,, but you are righ. I sincerely appreciate this comment and probably needed to hear this. Thanks brother.
nah i wasn't saying that at all.
just making a point that you can make some simple changes to your diet. like instead of velvetta fake cheese. switch to raw cheese..

Oh but its not boring at all. Now yes, broccoli and chicken is most definitely a staple in a bodybuilding diet, but its how you prepare it that matters. Adding just some fresh veggies or a different type of mustard (jalapeño, hot and sweet mustard) and or combined with different type of seasonings (none salt) makes it bomb lol.

Now if it was chopped up cubed chicken breast. Count me out. I did that way to many times. But ground chicken, that was not originally ground up (I have the butcher remove all fat from the breast and then grind it up, and of course when it's $1.99-2.99 a pound) with different seasoning etc and different type of zero cal or super low cal makes all the difference.

Oh but its not boring at all. Now yes, broccoli and chicken is most definitely a staple in a bodybuilding diet, but its how you prepare it that matters. Adding just some fresh veggies or a different type of mustard (jalapeño, hot and sweet mustard) and or combined with different type of seasonings (none salt) makes it bomb lol.

Now if it was chopped up cubed chicken breast. Count me out. I did that way to many times. But ground chicken, that was not originally ground up (I have the butcher remove all fat from the breast and then grind it up, and of course when it's $1.99-2.99 a pound) with different seasoning etc and different type of zero cal or super low cal makes all the difference.
bros i agree with you. lots of ways to cook it fun

I was going to do 40 min of Cardio last night after my training, but I jacked up my foot somehow. Hurts on the top and the bottom of my right foot. Had a doctor do a X-Ray, nothing broke but feels like maybe the tendons or something got jacked up. Hurts to even walk on it. Not cool, as this is going to set me back. It's been hurting like this for a couple of months now. I thought to myself, it will heal and I will be good, but kept on hurting which is why I went to see a doctor about it. Then i was doing cardio last week on a treadmill and all the sudden boom, in pain, and had to stop my cardio. Been In pain for a week now. Other then that I hit a perfect 40/40/20 Macro yesterday. Thanks @LevButlerov, I added x2 Digestive Enzymes to each mean etc. I will be way more detailed from here on out. Also added Fish Oil, and L-Carnitine and am going to add CLA as well

Actually no. I feel like the curry and cumin keep my chicken tasting perfect even 2-3 days old. If it does that to you drop it and try Cumin with other non salt seasoning like paprika, etc. Also I get this Hot & Sweet mustard (10cal, zero everything else) that goes well to give it flavor when I dont use curry etc
@T-RexAlpha shew man after that 3rd day my chicken is so damn dry lol
 
Idk man, I can eat ground chicken breast all day. Curry, Cumin, Cilantro, turn it into a burrito or a rice and chicken bowl etc. Man Im good for days
I recommend boiling the chicken, less dry. :D

It was the wife's birthday so I took her out to Black Angus. We both had the Trio (Steak, Lobster, and shrimp-x6). Just because I'm on a diet doesn't mean she has to be or that she cannot enjoy a meal without me crying "I'm on a diet, I can't". I decided to say whatever and get something semi ok. And be back on the grind tomorrow. Make time for the ones you love, BUT control your environment. I knew we would go out so that is why I fasted.

By the way, obviously if I was competing in any way I would never do any of the above. This was more for me than anyone else. When you have a decent amount of weight to drop it going to take time especially with no gear and a jacked up foot (see a day or so above, injury) Set backs happen. Plan accordingly is all Im telling myself when I review this log later. Weight loss is a marathon not a sprint. 95% of the time my diet has been on point and will continue to be. Back to the grind
 
bros check out my log in signature
Wow bro, Im reading and following your log and Im definitely stealing your workout routine lol 😆. I seriously needed one and was going to ask you guys for one but yours looks great. 2) Daaaamn week 3 you look like a completely different person. It's got me thinking.. as I cut with no gear, I'm going to loose muscle and shrink and I'm just not down with it. Maybe I should just recomp... im only doing 2600 cal.. Money has been tight as I am transitioning to a new Job, but once im clear to work, Im buying a grip of gear. I can eat clean, thats not a issue. Once I put my mind to something, I'm all in usually and for me this weight loss, muscle building get into the best shape of my life is priority for me right now. But I got this dang foot injury that decided to creep back in and its been hard to even walk on it lately. I hate injuries and how they stall your progress.

bros thanks. i shot you back a PM.
 
Hey EVO Family. Here with another update. I would like to thank the few who stop by to say hello, to encourage, to correct, to give knowledge. You drive me to be a better man and to keep me pushing towards my goals. Without you, I will still keep pursuing, but with you I find myself to be stronger mentally and even more motivated.

Food Log: Cleaning up my diet even further and breaking down all meals into grams for accuracy. This will be my meal plan for the next 2 weeks

● I'm a creature of habit. I like the same meals day in and day out. I keep it simple. Food is fuel. I don't care if it doesnt taste good. Make it good.

2680 Calories 268P/268C/60F broken down into 5 meals. I like more frequent meals, even though I know I dont have to do it this way.

● Digestive Enzymes with every Meal

● Pre/Post Meals 10g Creatine / 10g Glutamine

● PreWorkout: L-Carnatine, HMB, GAT PreWorkout, 5g Yohimbine

● Multivitamin, Probiotic, Fish Oil Daily Daily, D3+K2, Ashwaganda, B Complex, CLA, Magnesium, Zinc, Etc.

● Average total weight over 7 days:
247lbs as of today. (21 pounds lost-was 268lbs).

● I weight myself daily, add them all up over 7 days ÷7 and that is my average weight. Always in the morning, buck naked after morning bathroom trip.

Training: I have been dealing with a injury on my right foot. No broken bones, but hurt tendons. I will probably be buying some BPC-157. I have been injured this way for months. Last week I re-injured it on the treadmill cutting my cardio short. I found myself making excuses instead of working around the issue. Well forgot that crap, no excuse. Back to work.
