    Hi cal great to see you join the board…

    I know you have a very impressive T1 diabetic client (im T1D also)

    Just wondering apart from the obvious pros and cons of being t1, do you have any tips or advice how to get the most from this situation? Eg – manipulation of medication/food etc to make it as beneficial as possible in terms of assisting with the goals!

    Thanks

    So did you have these dudes you report from higher test on this cycle or not ?

    As if so that means it’s either total mg related or something different

    Yeah soon as the dose increases from say trt I start to notice this issues

    So over 200/250 you run into those issues , so it’s e2 related . When you have gone over that dose , what else have you been using . Can you list your full actual cycle history

    Cycle wise I’ve pretty much used everything compound wise at low and higher doses (2g) which im not proud of but in my early years of using i always thought more is better!!!

    However of late I’ve always been alot more Conservative with dosing!!

    For example current cycle is
    200mg test cyp
    100mg primo
    100mg mast
    M/W/F
    along with 25mg proviron ED
    With 25mg aromasin every 3-4 days

    Cheers

    There IS an option to run boldenone as a “test base” with less water retention and E2 effect…but more anxiety And hunger with boldo… Such as you are prone to high red blood cell or high blood pressure be careful when using it.

    Yes Bold isn’t an option for me because of the anxiety issues it causes me without fail!!

    Impossible to answer without knowing your goals for the cycle etc

    Well the primary aim is to use in an off season phase , whilst trying to reduce/minimise the above side effects

    yes i use it since 8 months, prep 6iu und now 2iu in offseason. IGF Labtest was in range with 2iu but i don’t know if this tells anything.

    In range meaning it didn’t elevate your igf?

    I’m not sure if I’ve missed it but why are you using the GH

    What’s the goal for the drug ?

    Without that it’s impossible to answer imo

    Its going to be used in an off season phase…

    So for muscle gain and help with body comp as much as possible in a surplus…

    Obviously I know its not a night and day drug… but that’s how I intend on utilising it

    Yep, am and pm split for sure.

    5iu split am/pm EOD

    I would split into 2 shots

    Fasted and pre bed if that’s the option that optimises the use best for me.

    Ok kuba thanks, so which would you say is be more optimal from the 2 ?

    5iu split am/pm EOD
    OR
    2.5iu split am/pm ED

    There’s a balance isn’t there, and the answer will not be the same everyone

    Where are you in your training life?

    What are your current goals?

    How well are you on top of recovery factors?

    I’m just looking to put on as much muscle as possible, I’ve kind of been doing the same thing or similar for a long time, and now looking at exploring other options, also to bring up weak areas etc

    Recovery wise id same im pretty decent tbh, im usually on top of that

    Yeah so hit the muscle every 4-5 days depending on recovery. This will be typically in a ppl set up so volume can be lower

    So typically how many working sets would you do for say a typical pull session?

    I’ve always been a body part per day guy n done loads exercises etc but 7 day frequency, looking to switch and trying PPL to up frequency

    4 days also.. there is no comparison to hitting a body part as soon as it’s able to preform maximally again imo

    Ok so when u say 4 days? Do u mean training days a week? Or a 3 on 1 off , so u hit same muscle every 4 days?

    Oh, understandable. Might kinda help but check out Vigorous Steve on youtube. Got nice explanation about crp and that kind of things on basic terms. Just stay on top of astragalus extract atleast 4g daily if you’re not using it right now. Will help tremendously with kidneys and overall inflammation, and if you want to go little deeper get cystatin-c test with egfr, measures straight damage done “in” your kidneys, if that’s really healthy with bilirubin in range, then kidneys should not be really that big of a cause, because creatinine with egfr test measures outside of kidneys too, in muscle etc so not that reliable of a marker for kidney damage. Just wanted to point that out if you maybe didn’t know. Hope that helps big man, stay safe.

    Thanks so much for your time bro ?. Currently double dosing supp needs Astrag flow.. which will be 16g astragalus daily – just because I’m so paranoid about this issue now, just want to take every pre caution…

    I’ll be sure to check the video on YouTube, and ill also push for cycstatin C test on my next panel…

    They’ve booked me a ACR urine test and an ECG next week, so ill mention it then
