Hilly, why do you think you feel more tired when adding in the Humalog on those High Days? One of the reasons I like using Humalog on high day is it actually makes me feel much less tired. I take the log as I begin eating a meal–post workout COR and chicken for example–and I start to feel a little hypo as I’m eating the first 1/3 of the meal, then that goes away and I feel like the meal is digested instantly and my brain function is perfect. Without the slin I feel like I get sleepy because my BG remains elevated for longer.

In general insulin use does make one feel a little more tired, diabetics tends to report this.

However I feel my issues is the fact that its also in line with carb meals that are 150-200g which in itself is going to make one feel tired.

I just noted it because I would usually use lantus for high days and just the fast acting around training if at all and do not get the same lethargy as I have been feeling from the fast.

However if you read up you will also see that the extreme lethargy I was noting was down to the test base so it may of been inline with this also 🙂

Accutane works very well. However comes with some sides

Dry skin

Set joints / tendons

Liver stress

So blood work

Would be key

Also I would be running nothing but Trt while using this compound

Have you checked your hormones to see if there may be something out causing the issue

Yes My hormones are balanced and when it originally happened it was on my 2nd cycle, 500 test 400 mast. My e2 has always been in range when I tested it.

I was actually thinking of doing deca with my trt to somewhat counter the joint pain, obviously not enough to take an AI as that would be too much for my liver

Did you look at prolactin and progesterone?

In terms of which one is most effective- deadlift for sure.

For me if a rack dead is done right I think it can remove a lot of risk and still stimulate the back to a decent degree.

To many see a rack dead as pulling from Around the knee cap which is more a shrug unless your very tall lol.

I would want to be half way down the shin.

Hey.

Yes , I use a similar split with some clients very effectively.

I do PPL first then rest then hit UL – using the UL days to put volume were we feel we need it most

Thanks!

What do you think about doing biceps on lower day and doing a bit more volume for triceps on upper day?[/quote]
This is pretty standard n I do this on my normal U/L splits in general

However in this case would simply depend on priority n total focus of the sessions – I.E what you need more of n
Less of

If your trying to keep things equal n focus on the whole body on UL days then yes I would put biceps on lower day

As your not 100% sure on current intake

I would start tracking n go for 2000 cals

Make sure doing cardio daily n tracking steps – say 12k target

Track this over 2-3 weeks n see what your weight does

Then assess n
Make changes as needed

Current hormones on 750mg southern ghost test cyp and 500mg Rohm test E.

Seem to run in like when using more of a similar dose of ROHM test E

My estro has defo dropped since removing the test Base.

Sex drive is on the lower side n pump / fullness has dropped.

I have just fed this back to AJ so see what he says

Where do you personally feel spot on estro wise? I know it varies massively per person, so just asking out of curiously, not to try and replicate! [/quote]
I usually feel better just over range when looking to grow etc.

Once I get to the bottom like now I feel it in my tendons a lot

For me I do no pressing at all.

When I tore my pec badly it become apparent that continuing to press Started to make the side with the torn pec – shoulder / arm look fuller and imbalanced.

I’ve managed to keep things pretty balanced over the years approaching training this way for myself

I’m reality there is nothing much needed. The thyroid will bounce back itself pretty effectively.

Depending on the person and what’s going on when we pull it I sometimes will run Clen to cover any potential lag in output so to speak but it’s certainly not needed

Hello bud – So the load is drastically reduced – Which is hard to handle mentally but AJ approach is he feels you can build muscle like this and is a safer approach which is another reason I wanted to trial it and thus picking him to work with.

I have a torn pec, 2 slipped discs and have been at this almost 15 years so my tendons are always hurting when training as I always have done.

So it becomes that trade off of – I may not enjoy it as much but if it builds the muscle I want and prevents injury and pain then its worth it.

in terms of how to approach it – he wants the last 2 sets of each exercise to be hitting failure and the others to just be hard working sets pyramiding up so I just gauge each set there and then to make sure I am hitting the rep range – Sometimes that means backing ups the weight as I go through if I have increased to quickly.

Nothing over complicated like working in RIR etc

Thanks Hilly. Well i dont follow this kind of training but recently have been more interested on the higher rep range and higher volume workouts. Have seen several good results from that approach. In particular AJ has shown countless insane transformatios. Although I have also thought that he might focus more on their top athletes and for all others its a standard protocol. But from the feedback you have been shared looks like he is giving proper attention to you and doing changes based on your feedback.[/quote]
He seems pretty in-depth. Every one must be given some form of standard protocol to gauge response before you can thus adapt n change based on feedback.

It’s impossible to give a specific in-depth set up to some one from the start as you simply have to learn there body n adapt as you go.

Does this mean his methods n approach will work for every one -myself included – certainly not but having followed a certain approach that runs in line with the way all do things on this forum in general.

I am always keen to trial other avenues from those highly experienced in them ?

if the RBC is elevated then giving blood is IMO the best approach and is not at all unhealthy.

You can now get baby aspirin with a coating to protect from any stomach issues but I do feel letting blood is much more effective for us
