Legit TRT is rarely above 150mg.

Low-dose daily Accutane/Isotretinoin worked a treat for me.

Hey man sorry I can’t answer your question… but where did you get the IGF1 test done?

[Tim Marston]

These guys offer a free consult – https://www.themojoclinic.com/

Might be worth having a chat with them and seeing how it sounds.

Leger clinic will probably be cheaper, but neither clinic is crazy money.

Hi Liam
I am on prescribed TRT in the UK.
I inject 3 x week M/W/F and it works great.
The NHS is crap but the Leger clinic is very affordable and they are a great team.
Happy to answer questions.

Huberman had AthleanX on his podcast… Not a good sign.

[Tim Marston]

Just commenting to agree about the YT series, I’ve watched every one and they have all been awesome.

[Tim Marston]

Gutted to hear about this man, was really looking forward to seeing you pull that 505, but love your attitude to it all.

Do any docs in the UK prescribe things like peptides for athletes to help them repair?

[Tim Marston]

In some cases, legit docs prescribe much higher than 125-150mg.

I think some patients need a higher dose to treat symptoms. Not exactly sure why, but docs that I trust say it’s a thing.

(Not saying that’s what’s going on here and defo agree that there is a fashion for calling a cruise TRT).

[Tim Marston]

DIY Accutane or prescribed? I’m on 30mg (Isotentinoin to be precise) from the Derm, and it’s working really great. So it might be worth dropping your dose?

And then I’m on doc prescribed TRT (125mg of sust), lipids are ok, I’m taking JPs heart supps to help.

If you are on a non-natural level of test + high dose Accutane it could cause issues with bloods, defo be cautious.

This helps me, I use it once a day, and it takes the edge off my anxiety fairly well:

If it gets worse, ACT talking therapy is very effective (its mindfulness made into a therapy).

Hi Tim

So look back at the video and check out the distance between your hips and the bar at the bottom of the squat – the bar is way out in front of your hips which is always going to fold you over IMO. I like to keep the bar as close to in line with my hips as possible (obviously your hips will be slightly behind but not miles).

To do this think about opening your hips up by driving your knees outward. This will help you maintain a more upright position and keep your larger more powerful muscles (glutes, quads etc) under the bar more.

I did a squat tutorial video on YouTube that might help you if you search for “Adam Bishop How to Squat”

Obviously a one on one coaching session would be very beneficial as they can see the lift from multiple angles and change small things.

Final thing from me – try to only focus on one or two coaching cues at most at one time. Too many points may lead to you not achieving any. I would just go and focus on one point at a time, review your video from different angles and once that point is nailed down then think about addressing another.

Awesome, thanks man. I really appreciate the advice “show us your dick” is an excellent cue haha!

Hey guys,

Here is my next attempt, I did my best to follow the list of advice in my previous comment, but it didn’t seem to help my butt wink much:

Might this be something I need some time with a good coach to fix?

Also, my hamstring flexibility is really crap, I can’t touch the bottom of my shins, never mind my ankles, could this cause the winking?

Thanks

[Tim Marston]

Thanks, guys, the advice is much appreciated. Will try again this week and drop a new video to see if I have made any positive improvements.

Will focus on:

1 – Raising heels more.
2 – Wider stance.
3 – Driving knees further forward.
4 – Breaking at the knee and the hip, not the torso.
5 – Getting the bar low on my back.
6 – Neutral spine and a static torso.
