  • Unfortunately still very very flat this week. Kind of expected after time off. Only a few more weeks of pulling food, once appetite is firing up I can start pushing food.

    Hoping for at least a 220lbs this time.

    2nd consequential rest day… really nothing going on. Still have no itch to train. I feel wiped out. I had treatment today, much needed. My osteo was able to work into the the tendon that connects the knee cap to the VL. It was very sore, super tight. I have some homework. Basically there’s gun the shit out that tendon everyday and my quads. Stretch hip flexors and basic foam rolling over the quads as whole.
    Knee is sore now after treatment, he really went in. Also got readjusted which was needed. I was getting tension headaches from my neck being so tight. Upper back was locked up also.

  • Just finished another epic leg session. No knee pain again!!

    Seated ham curl x8, x11
    Stiff leg dead (dead stop) 170×6, 140×10
    Single leg cuff curl x8 x11
    Leg extension x13 x8 (with dropset x8)
    Leg press x9 x14
    Seated calf 6×4

    Loving training so much at the moment.

  • Great leg session today

    Lying hamstring curl 18×9, 16×11
    Leg extensions 40×15, 50×11
    Squats 140×8, 120×12
    Single leg press 100×6, 50×12
    Goblet squat 45×8, 35×10
    Dumbbell RDL 50×10, 35×20
    Seated calf raise 2×20-25, 2×8-10

    First time training legs in around 6 months or so now. Knees held up nicely and hopefully continue to improve from now on. Would be nice to see that squat rise past 180×5 (my previous best a few years back)

  • No digestive issues is good! Do you rotate protein sources etc?
    Yeah I hear ya man, pushing for too long is totally counterproductive! Something I’ve discovered myself!!
    Sweet! Your thinking behind cursing makes perfect sense too, good way to look at it!
    Prolactin, I guess there’s nothing that can be done to keep that in check? Did it bring your libido down?

    Yeah I’m getting quite a few in now. P5p keeps prolactin down, usually dose at 300mg a day. If not then there’s caber but not had to use it yet.

    Yeah prolactin directly effects libido for me

    Jake Maddox @jake_phantomphysique

  • This was a hell of an interesting read, your transformation so far has been insane!! Couple of questions, last year you commented on digestion issues, do you still have them and if not was it just a drop in protein that cured that? Since you cruise, does that mean you never run a PCT? Any regrets about getting on gear or noticeable side affects?? I’ve been trying to build up the courage to start a cycle for ages but have never done it yet!

    _________________________________________

    Thanks mate ????

    No, no digestive issues now. The drop in protein worked but it’s mainly as I’m now pulling food back down. Something I wish I did earlier on was not push for too long as progress just becomes almost impossible.

    And if you want my honest answer, no regrets. And no I’ve never ran a PCT and always cruised, for me it didn’t seem smart to come off, run a load of PCT drugs. And then just shut my self back down again on my next cycle. Fertility does bother me a little but I’m sure that can be sorted down the line (as long as I’m not the 1% who will be shut down forever)

    Side effects wise:
    More spots
    Blood pressure has been up and down
    Prolactin is an issue for me and went up on only 250mg test. This causes libido issues and sleep issues, but estrogen causes zero sides for me

  • Right, been ages since I updated you on here.
    I’ve currently been off training for 6 weeks (tell a lie I managed to get a quick full body in mid way). I’ve now managed to get hold of some equipment and ready to get going again. My training programme is designed to fit my local gym, MJs, so will have to adapt any exercises I have in my plan to be similar to equipment I have available.
    Had some pretty bad knee and back pain throughout last few weeks, but literally a couple of days stretching and it’s gone. It’s so easy to forget how painful being tight can really be, but most of the time nothing serious.
    Currently on a cruise on 60mg test e, which does in fact keep me in range. Will be sticking with this until I can train hard again, as will need a few weeks to get in the swing of things and assess whether it’s worth it. My cycle will be pretty low thanks to the help on here, mainly from Jordan and Hilly.
    Will post photos Monday to show how much tissue has gone ????

  • Which digestive issues did you have?

    Stomach pains, constantly full, nothing serious but enough that I couldn’t keep pushing

    Jake Maddox @jake_phantomphysique

  • Hey mate what do the traininig sessions look like? Interested to see how you split push and shoulder&arm day

    Sorry for late response, been a while since I was on my journal. I’m posting my new training plan shortly

    You have a lovely frame n defo potential to be very good in classic.
    I would go for 4-500mg test with 300mg NPP.
    As jordan states you should be able to add slot of tissue just using this n a lot of food n hard training.

    I think you were jumping too fast correct . I like the lower dose cycle idea much more and focusing on taking your weight up and getting to all time strength at that new weight , cruise and hold the new weight , reintroduce again get very lean while still progressing lifts, and then push back up again from that lean start point . All of that doesn’t need any increase in drugs imo , as the second push has the ability to use caloric increases for longer. That whole plan should easily add 15 pounds muscle

    Thanks, so would you advise the second time on cycle be longer to allow enough time to cut down and then re build food ?

    In addition I’m planning on cutting after lockdown for around 6 weeks to get my food in a good place to push up. Hoping to get strength back too before adding anabolics
