Delt focus push today, pretty solid session with some good progress-
Matched last weeks 95 a side prime shoulder press for 7 but with much better execution, back off was up by 6 reps
Db shoulder press up by 3 reps and up by 4 in back off.
Strength still pushing up weekly despite no food or drug changes in 12+ weeks now and bodyweight still holding between 252-254
Since pushing increlex dose up I have noticed on a few occasions feeling a bit light headed/hypo so going to monitor blood glucose for the next few days
Whats increlex? Heard people talking about it but not sure what it is for[/quote]
recombinant human insulin-like growth factor-1[/quote]
What does it do ?[/quote]
It is used for children that do not produce enough igf-1 naturally to promote growth of muscles and bone… additional use of it for bodybuilding will promote growth -
Hey Darren, can you explain the what mediphorm does and how it works ?
Mediphorm is essentially a site enhancement product , it does have additional benefits in terms of promoting growth and healing

Finally back to a pretty much full volume legs session today.
Pendulum increased to 5plates so only 2 off the weight I tore quad in and it was feeling easy but on rep 5 the back pad snapped (guess I got my revenge back on it ?) so slight change of plan then and moved over to hack squat which I haven’t done in over a year and worked up to 7pps for a comfortable set of 8..
Leg press same weight as last week but got an extra 5 reps on top set and extra 10 reps on back off.
Felt really good in session, didn’t even think about my quad but it a bit sore tonight like a bruised feeling. -
Advice on what? Pretty vague here…
-
Push delt focus today and had a really great session, everything just clicked and felt strong. First session in ages where I had no pain in my shoulder so took advantage of this and managed 5pps on the prime shoulder press for 7 reps.
Prior to injuring my rotator 12 weeks ago my best at this weight was 4 reps so considerable progress has been made here. -
Years and years of being consistent with training hard, eating right and good genetics…
I’m sure you and everyone reading this has seen videos of Chris training heavy for several years day in day out… -

Hey mate based on the above info And what will give you the most for this next phase – looking at what will allow length of cycle, health markers to stay relatively in range etc..
Id suggest keeping it pretty basic
Test & primo- yes you could also use npp and or masteron but really don’t think necessary.
Id start at 800mg total usage across week (400 test 400 primo)
You could taper this up gradually by increasing primo or adding in npp or mast[/quote]
Hey Darren
Thank you for your input. Primo is really really hard to find legit here in Brazil. Is 400 test 400 nandrolone a good substitute? I know they are very different drugs, but nandrolone is very anabolic, right? Or should I go for masteron instead of deca? [/quote]
Hilly has pretty much said what I would say here with no access to primo -
Pull/hams today
Session went as followsLying ham 1×8-12 1×12-15
SLDL 260×3 200×12
Chest supported tbar 1×8-10 1×12-15
Prime extreme row 1×8-10 1×12-15
Panatta mid back row 1×12-15 rp
Dy row 1×8-12
Upper back lat pulldown 2×12-15
Single arm preacher 4×10-12Very good session hitting some new weights on a few exercises.
Feeling like these last 2 weeks I’m showing signs of fatigue – not in performance but more in my look – not as full and body looks tired

Definitely remove the npp as that seems to be the catalyst however you also elude to anxiety (which also may be caused by the npp) and the anxiety could be causing the chest pains. I suffer with anxiety quite bad which causes me panic attacks (shortness of breath & chest pains)

Push chest focus today and this is definitely the session I find hardest to progress, chest press is a battle for me to push up. Managed 1 extra rep today on my top set on prime incline press so I’ll take that, now I know the next 2 sessions will be just trying to match my 7 reps but better and then hopefully 8 reps will be there.
Starting to feel a bit beat up now, only first session of the week and felt very drained after it so rest of this week I’ll be playing by ear and adjust based on how I feel.

Rest day today so not a whole lot to report, spent the day doing client work, eating and resting.

Frequency will be your friend here so look at tagging on arms 3-4 times a week 2-3 exercises per session.

Timings etc I guess really depend on how much nutrients you are taking in pre and timing away from training- for me I eat my pre workout meal 1 60 mins prior to training containing 125g carbs, I then start sipping on my intra (30g sustain, 20g eaa) at the start of my session and finish towards the end and my post workout meal is 1 hour after training containing 125g carbs
