Approved Log TRT Cycle Diet Training - Restarting Fitness Log

[InkAndSteel]

I will do my best to keep this updated at least every other day... I'll give a little history as I did in a previous post:

I haven't posted here since 2015. Around 2019 I got really sick, and had a misdiagnosis of MS. I sat with that until late last year. I still worked out, but got progressively worse. Test levels dropped to 62, my weight jumped to 235 (I'm only 5'6"). I got a trainer who set a good food plan for me, and since end of march, with diet, cardio and lifting... plus TRT (only 100mg a week), I'm down to 215 as of this morning. I'll add my previous pics, then me at 235, and today.
I'm working through some elbow issues and a ganglion cyst on my left wrist, but my strength is coming back, and I continue to drop BF, thank god... lol! I'm currently 48 years old, work from home and raise a 12 year old boy all by myself. Life is a bitch, but I'm about to make the gym my bitch again. No processed foods in 2 months...

The ones with glasses are me March 29th
Pics with Hat are from yesterday and today
Punisher Shirt: 5 months before I started to get sick, and the same red shirt and jeans, was right before I got sick. It's been a journey...

Diet, think your diet is good but we can make many improvements
first we can replace rice with oatmeal on meal 3
and meal 2 you should go with sweet potatoes /yams with skin for the extra fiber
you also lack omega 3 fats, add some fish oil or walnuts
and daily psyllium husk add it please

I will get to adding and such this week, and I do track my workouts. Had to adjust due to bicep tendinitis and a damn ganglion cyst… but I’m still at it. I do have psyllium husk available. Pics I shall add tomorrow.

@InkAndSteel thats fine ultraviolet to start but you can get a cheap infrared lamp at home put in on your tendinitis and injuries

 

[InkAndSteel]

Also current supps for now
Karbolyn
Creatine with HMB
BCAAs
Dust X
Bunk Helios (no longer taking)

*holding on to the tren hex for later…

 

[RoidRage69]

You have the same test Cyp I got prescribed. Good quality. I give that stuff to the wife since it’s pharma grade.

 

[stevesmi]

good to hear you are doing your best to avoid processed food

just make sure you are aware that protein powder and egg whites are processed.

i would suggest homemade bone broth and whole pastured eggs instead of those 2 things to take things to the next level

How much of a head fuck was the misdiagnosis of MS?

I should say the ultra processed foods… and I don’t use eggs whites from the carton, only from the egg.

 

[InkAndSteel]

That was fucking horrible… I swear I developed symptoms I didn’t have because of it. I had white lesions in my brain, but a third neurologist looked and told me they’re fairly normal, and didn’t suggest MS… they did total blood work for vitamins and my b6,b12 and D were dangerously low… I got on good vitamins, and then the test… and within 6 weeks I felt fucking normal.

Ok so far looks good. Next week when you do HS shoulder press you should bump that up by 2.5-5 lbs on each side and try to get the same amount of reps. You be surprised how such small amounts over time turn into massive gains. Body wont grow unless you force it too. The body hates to change. Force it!!!

Progressive overload does wonders.
