    E2 IMO is fine.
    prolactin i would want to bring down. Vitamin B6 p5p – 300mg daily.

    remember sperm maturation cycle 9-10 weeks so I would not test sperm until you have had HCG and HMG in place for at least 12 weeks

    Thats great mate thanks for clearing that up. Will get p5p added in.
    One thing that surprised me on recent bloods also was my haematocrit which usually sits on top end but this time it was 0.58 (0.5 being top) and also haemoglobin and rbc high as well which they never used to be out just on high end. I donate blood every three month and supplement thrombomax. Do you have any insight in this too?

    I would go doctors and raise this with them, the only time I have seen prolactin this high was in my dads bloods and he had a prolactinoma.

    There could be an error with the bloods also

    Cheers mate thats my plan first thing monday morning. Very weird having zero sides im hoping its an error

    Me too mate, Join In has been genuinely brilliant for me.

    Excited for you to try it, it’s made a genuine difference to me

    Ive been taking the full joint stack along with tb500 for my bicep tendon to heal and it must be working because its healing so quick in my opinion. Into forth week now and got full movement in my arm and wrist with no tightness and been getting on with my day to day life really easily for weeks

    Where do you inject it for a torn bicep?

    Tb500 you can inject anywhere subq as it finds the location to heal. Its only 157 you need to get it close to the location. Am i right?

    Sweet, curls very soon then slowly increasing load , sets of 30 reps , be patient !! Curl SLOW , listen to the bicep , literally
    Start with 0.5kg , but the progress comes fast once you start , the next day usually feels like can then do 0.75 then a few more days can do 1kg

    Champion thats noted cheers mate! i cant wait to bounce back from this

    Gd side entirely as normal

    Light side out of the sling asap, 7- 10 days and work on moving it through full ROM super steadily , once you can full ROM , start holding a 0.5kg then a 0.75 then a 1kg then 1.25 etc
    Etc , every day full rom
    Work , until it’s back to 5kg /
    10kg / etc etc , every day blood flow super patient , then viola it’s back to normal work

    Ok cheers bud. Yeah arm came out sling/splint on day 7. Its now been two weeks post op and arms feeling good i nearly have full ROM now just about fully straighten my arm but still needs couple days i think.
    Thanks so much for the first advice on my injury post otherwise i wouldnt of had a clue how and would of just took the doctors advice. Had check up with surgeon yesterday and he couldnt believe how well my arm was doing

    Joint stack will defo help a lot as you need the raw material to help repair everything and that’s what they do , peptides i think tb500
    Is also useful

    Really appreciate this mate thank you

    Get the op , get it out of the sling the sooner the better so your able to move it around very carefully , the moment you can do curls with your arm without weight, start by holding 1kg , then 1.5kg , then 2kg – curls every single day , slowly slowly slowly creeping . Blood flow is absolute key .

    I personally after surgery would then bin off any further advice from anyone else and then focus on my own rehab , but I’m extremely experienced with rehab and know I can heal stuff fast!

    Just get it out the sling the moment your confident too, whatever the surgeon says ( don’t even ask him, they will tell you some bollocks to stay in the sling for a month) but if your out in 10 days , by a month your already doing curls

    Thanks so much. Is there anything supplement wise that i should use to help the process too? The joint stack for example? Or even peptides? I dont know a lot about them but id just like it back to normal asap

    May 25, 2023 at 9:48 am in reply to: Right ankle mobility

    Yes the ones Adam states above is great – I also like to start my session with some calf raises – non weighted just getting my ankles working and some heel raised squats non weighted to ease myself into getting to work with ankle mobility – I try to do the calf raises uni laterally – have you hurt the ankle that has less mobility before?

    I heard someone mention calf raises first in leg session so i have been doing that a while now but i will defo incorporate the elevated heel squats too thanks meg!
    Im pretty sure ive injured my ankle in the past at some point and then completely avoided barbell squats because im usually fine on hacks and can find s decent position with full knee flexion on leg press but i dont want to be stuck doing just those two.
