    A much needed rest day today. And some r and r. Cardio this am and then busy day of work and check ins. Haircut. And then onto some chiro treatment. Been seeing the same chiro for 8 years now and he’s kept me in one piece! Good bit of work on my back and my shoulder today plus full body mot. Then in for deep tissue next week. That’ll happen every week now up to the shows 🙏

    Yeah what Hilly said is nails. They’ll never all be green and we wouldn’t expect them to be. But within certain degree of difference that is acceptable to each marker.

    Never done an AAS pin sub q in my life. Only ever water based compounds.

    Can’t see any benefits outweighing the cons… plus if it ain’t broke and all that…

    Hi Joe,

    Just stopping by to say progress pics looks awesome.

    You must be really pleased with where you’re at and what you can bring to the stage given current position.

    Side note – epic game six nations beating France. There is no better way to win a game than in the last minute, even if it does cause your BP to raise when the French score with 5mins left…

    Keep grafting dude.

    Thank you brother! Yes very happy with current progress. Things are coming along nicely tbf! Free more weeks and should start to see some knarly condition.

    And yeah man 100% so long as you’re on the winning side haha. What a game that was! Gutted it’s an off weekend this weekend. Hope you’re well too my man 🙏

    If you feel good and can recover from it for your next sessions depending on your don’t then why not. I’d say for most people who have a semi decent training age that would be fine. But of course there’s a few nuances.

    Chest and tri today and strength is holding just nicely. In fact progressing still. Just over 7 plates a side on the Atlantis incline which I was happy with today.

    Visuals sent to Patrick who is very happy with current condition – we’re on the money. He’s added 30mg anavar in from Friday this week look forward to seeing how that helps the visuals.

    Feeling good and leg day tomo. Let’s goooo

    Much needed rest day today been feeling a little smashed from training so I enjoy a Sunday of rest. Getting things ready for the week ahead and can do it all over again. Just under 8 weeks out now and things are ticking along nicely.

    Just cardio and steps today. And watching the last of the 6 nations games for this week. Have of course been loving it and buzzing for England to take that massive win over France too!

    Similar to what the guys have said liquid-easy digestible carbs are going to be sweet here

    Look at nailing 500-1000ml water upon wake with hydration and 20g mps

    Then during training 20g eaa and however much intra is appropriate for your diets needs for example 60g sustain.

    If you also have a decent Size meal pre bed you’ll get some carry over from that too.

    Ran probs my most boring session today

    Hams gluts and 1 quad

    Sessions was

    Adductor
    Lying ham
    Kneeling single leg ham
    Seated ham
    Smith heavy glute drive
    Leg ext

    Nothing crazy just straight sets – annoying as where I tore my hamstring late 2023 I still can’t full send hams so seems like I’m just going through the motions for 3 exercises in this session but it needs to be done.

    It’s not all pbs and sexy training. Sometimes you just have to do what needs to be done.

    Rest day tomorrow before we do it all over again next week.

    February 7, 2025 at 10:54 pm in reply to: Optimal jab frequency & type

    I would deffo avoid glute shots. Especially with this smaller amount of oil.

    Slin pins IM all day. Delts/lats/arms is what I do.

    I’d draw the weeks worth into one larger barrel then split it into the slin pins.

    200 test and 200 primo is about 2ml is depending what lab you’re using. I’d do 4×1/2 ml jabs. Higher inj frequency is better to avoid hormonal spikes etc – also helps keep my skin clearer.

    Leg day today first one back since being ill and had a very good session.

    Few changes to the plan too.

    Sust out, prop in.

    Clen in 20mcg/day

    Ketotifen in 2mg EOD

    Proviron in 100mg/day split 50/50 am/pm

    Halo in 10mg/day pre workout

    Time to start spicing things up a bit 🤏

    Wil halo stay in constant now till show day ? I don’t tend to see it use regularly this far out is all bud ? [/quote]
    I don’t know but I would imagine so as I’m not using tren – plus bloods were good a few weeks ago so can probs manage the time on it. Or at least, I’m not starting it from an unhealthy place. Fully aware it’s not ‘ideal’ to run for longer periods but boss said so, so im doing. Obv if he pulls it I’ll update here 🙂
