Hello, Clare and Meg said it perfect.
Usual dose I use personnally per day is 1g.
When sick ; I increase the vit C alongside with some other supps and it works better than medicine.
Super important to couple with Iron for me who got often Iron defficiency.Instagram : @allisontestu

Hello everyone
Check-in day this am
64,6kg fasted today
Lifts are progressing at the gym !
The coach wants to keep everything the same.
He does not expect any weight drop for this first week.
Today was full day of work on my posing video corrections : my girls sent their posing turns, routines, walk, and I analyse and make a feedback video in voice over with lines and correction to make for the following week.
Then I have done my 8k steps and some food shopping (bread and eggs) and also done a little administrative stuff and some supp order.
Now just chillin with hubby and rest 🤩Instagram : @allisontestu

Technically more sleep is always better as a lot of our recovery n growing is done while we sleep.
However I also feel fine on 5.5-6 hours n actually feel worse if I sleep for 8 hours.
It’s very individual
Do you take anything to help with sleep
Hi there, yes I take dream sleep and supplement with extra magnesium throughout day. I was also prescribed Mirtazapine by my GP which has helped slightly but not that much[/quote]
Duration of sleep is personal.
If you can do a nap during the day for 20min to fill up batteries, that’s cool. If you can’t, then you can’t and if you still feel ok; no problem.
My main concern is the oxygenation while you sleep.
If I describe you exactly what happened at home, I had :
• my husband without sleep machine
• my husband with sleep machine
Same person, but the second one litterally doubled in muscle size and went for the first overall of his life after 11 years of competing.
He was like “i don’t understand why people grow faster than me”
As sexy as the sleep machine is, we don’t need to be overweight to have slight sleep apnea (proof is that kerry also need it).Instagram : @allisontestu

Hello mate, be very careful with the values of TSH.
They can variate so much !
Make sure your sleep has been great before doing the thyroid test.
Test also free T3/T4, Reverse T3, Antibodies Thyroids.
How was your sleep the day before the blood test ?
If your circadian rythm has been disrupted, you will need to redo a test, and add those values to make sure everything is fine.
TSH is very sensitive, you mess your circadian rythm just once and the result can be very very high.
Thanks for the reply. Looking back the night before the night of bloodwork I had some rough sleep that night. Also my apologies my photos won’t attach.
THYROID FUNCTION
TSH + Free T4
Test Current Result Flag Reference
TSH 7.620 uIU/mL High 0.450 – 4.500
Free T4 (Direct) 1.24 ng/dL Normal 0.82 – 1.77
T3, Free, Dialysis (LC/MS-MS)
Result Reference Range (Adults) Previous
3.48 pg/mL 1.81 – 4.06 2.09
LIPID PANEL
Cholesterol & Ratios
Test Current Result Flag Reference
Total Cholesterol 149 mg/dL Normal 100 – 199
Triglycerides 80 mg/dL Normal 0 – 149
HDL Cholesterol 26 mg/dL Low >39
LDL Cholesterol (NIH) 107 mg/dL High 0 – 99
VLDL Cholesterol 16 mg/dL Normal 5 – 40
LDL / HDL Ratio 4.1 High 0.0 – 3.6
I will try to get my bloodwork redone with some proper sleep.[/quote]
Basically if you fell asleep later than usual and had a bad sleep + woke up too early compared to usual; it’s totally equal as testing the thyroid right in the middle of the night at 3/4amThat’s why retest them tsh free t3 free t4, and add the reverse t3 and antibodies cause thoses values indicates if there is a trouble or not.
I tell you that cause once after a very bad sleep my tsh was over 6 so I have freaked out.
I retested the day after, after an amazing sleep, was at 2,5 and reverse t3, antibodies were all perf on top.Instagram : @allisontestu

Hello mate, you feel fine and I believe you.
So you can’t see how much this can affect your progress, and you probably will feel the difference once you will have the sleep machine.
That’s the exact moment my husband started to have a significant muscle growth.
He was fine, sleep was ok, no noticeable apnea, just snoring.
But finally he had according to the exams, and how it prevents him to evolve was just so crazy for someone “who always felt fine”.
A better oxygenation while sleeping is so important, so I hope you find outInstagram : @allisontestu

Hello mate; the weight reached a plateau just because you started in May and lost tons of weight. 20kgs is huge!

I would say : the best is what fits you and what fits your schedule, for you to be consistent.
Into my opinion, I would always do the most intense cardio after a training session and not before.Instagram : @allisontestu

Hello mate, I wouldn’t use the seatbelt personnally.
Lifting heavier can be exciting but you need to lower the weight and review the form
I wouldn’t actually use a seatbelt except on horizontal plan if the weight almost exceed/exceed your body weight as for example : leg extension
We often see some 50kg woman lifting over 50kg with a proper form, but at some point, it’s hurting the arms and neck holding too strong on the seat.
But hack squat noInstagram : @allisontestu
